Colbury House Nursing Home

Have enjoyed my time here.

The managers and office staff are all very friendly and approachable. The other staff and carers are all very friendly and helpful. The nurses on site are lovely, and always happy to answer any concerns. I am extremely happy with the standard of care provided.

I have found the staff helpful, cooperative and friendly. I appreciate the staff have done their best to provide suitable food and her privacy and dignity have been respected. They have also helped her to take tablets ad kept her room temperature stable, matters which would have proved difficult had I attempted to provide further care at home.

Dad has been here for a few weeks and we have been very pleased with the care provided. Dad's needs have become more evident and obviously, nursing care has been of paramount importance. This has been very evident with Dad.

Our family is so pleased with how quickly Mum has settled at Colbury House Nursing Home. The kindness from the staff extends to the family as well as to Mum - for which we are very grateful. The atmosphere here is a very happy one.

Care to residents and families, and the attitude of all staff is wonderful. Always friendly and always kept in touch. Very involved and caring management team. Big investment in improving the exterior and interiors of the building.

Lovely carers, great food, bedroom very comfortable. Mum loves church, having her hair done, company and the family can visit any time.

From the moment we arrived with Mum, the staff, from management, carers, chef, maintenance and cleaners, were kind, helpful and warm. This kind and considerate manner has not changed to the present day. Family have been welcomed, and great-grandchildren are happy and have actually enjoyed visits; that's an amazing recommendation for Colbury House. Thank you to everyone.

The staff are very caring and professional in the job. They also support the family when needed.

Well all I can say is that I have so much respect for everyone who works there. My mum went in back in February 2021 and she is truly happy there. They care for her so well that it takes so much worry off us as a family. Keep up the great work.

Colbury House have been very welcoming and accommodating to my father, he has received amazing care and before his illness deteriorated he was very happy, Dad is now very well cared for from the confines of his bed. The staff are all very friendly and it all feels like a tight community. I receive regular updates and am usually contacted straight away if there are any issues. The home is very clean and the food looks and smells amazing. I would happily be a resident here myself if I could.

Pre-Covid she joined in with activities, which we both enjoyed. I now see her once a week and I am updated on her health and well-being. I would recommend Colbury House and say a very big thank you to all the hard-working staff.

I could not say enough positive feedback about the staff. Thank you.

We have a distant relative who was admitted to Colbury House at very short notice after five weeks in the hospital over the Christmas period. The management, qualified nursing staff and house staff played a major part in healing him to settle in, despite his poor health and mental condition. Having lived all of his adult life on his own, now 90, he has naturally become very set in his ways and does not mix in with others readily. So his own suite of rooms suites him. Unfortunately, a chest infection necessitates his admittance to the hospital at the end of February. He seemed to be improving when he injected some fluid into his lungs and spent three nights in intensive care. Before returning to Colbury House a week later, this followed by Coronavirus and the extended period of lockdown life has been difficult, but Colbury staff are coping well.

I chose this care home for my aunt after viewing six and removing her from one where she was not flourishing. The Manager was welcoming and knowledgeable, with the caring ethic I wanted. The home is airy, light and has pleasant rooms, with lovely spacious view of open land and gardens. Those residents who were able were stimulated and content. My aunt, who needs constant help, was cared for with compassion and expertise.
