Andover Nursing Home

The home simply cannot be faulted. Excellent levels of care and compassion.
From the moment I first walked through the door everything has been just as I would wish for my father's care. He has become part of a community where everyone, both residents and staff interact very well.
Great care is taken to ensure residents feel involved and are socialised.
In just a few weeks my father, my brother and I have been made to feel very welcome and nothing has been too much trouble for the care home to attend to.

In dealing with the home over 7 months, until my Father's recent death, our family experienced the utmost care, and respect from all staff. We looked at a number of homes but focused on which would deliver the best nursing care, not just an expensive room. Our choice of Andover Nursing Home was, we believe, well judged, as my father received excellent professional and compassionate care from all the nurses and carers, and was treated with great dignity. The demands on these staff are exceptional where dealing with Dementia residents, so realistically the circumstances may not always be perfect, but any concerns were always quickly dealt with, and information requests are taken very seriously including reference to well maintained recorded information. The home has a very positive attitude with residents, through its interpersonal treatment and activities, and is supported by effective leadership. We believe we couldn't have chosen better!

The Andover Nursing Home has looked after my aunt, who is 100 years old, for the past 14 years. Although suffering from dementia, she is looked after with enormous dignity and love. My sister and I visit every week at different times and always receive a lovely welcome from all the staff, both the administration and care staff. If my aunt is unwell the home are very quickly in touch with us. It is a really happy home and my aunt and we nieces are very lucky to have found it.

There is a wonderful relaxed atmosphere but at the same time, all the staff are very professional. There are plenty of smiles and activities for the residents that makes it a very happy place which I think is important. The decor has been updated in the last few years and it's lovely light and airy. The top floor is beautifully decorated for the Alzheimer's residents with lots of memoranda for them to touch and see. I have witnessed how gentle the staff are when feeding them and the respect they show. I would definitely recommend Andover Nursing Home as a first choice.

My Mother lived in the home for 6 years. I am a nurse working with care homes across Hampshire. The staff gave me confidence that Mum was being cared for in a calm, clean and caring. The ethos is on one big family and I truly felt that the staff cared about my Mother and her family.
If your looking for a home from home where your loved one will live and not merely exist I would thoroughly recommend Andover Nursing Home. This for me is the best possible home in the area. The care was so good I also moved my great Aunt to the home for end of life care.
