Thank you Daniel for your kind review. We strive really hard to make our residents and their family and friends feel happy, safe and secure. We always think our job is a real privilege and caring for your loved one is our pleasure.
Mum always seems clean and content. Carers always seem happy and are very helpful.

Thank you for your nice review. Your Mum is a lovely lady who makes caring for her very easy, when she laughs she lights up the room. Our job is always such a privilege that we do not ever take lightly. Thank you again.
They are excellent with my sometimes difficult dad. Wonderful staff, very caring, know his ailments and are on top of things straight away.

Thank you for such a good review. Your Dad has us all smiling every day and my dog certainly enjoys the "treats" that he feeds her! He is such a lovely man and although he can challenge us from time to time we are very thankful to know him and be able to care for him. Thank you again.

Having transferred my sister from a nursing home in New Malden, Surrey, Temple Ewell Nursing Home is 5 Stars. The staff are all very caring, they check on my sister regularly, some of the caring staff are exceptionally kind. Covid has been difficult for everyone, but Temple Ewell has been outstanding.
Thank you so much for the lovely review. Your sister is a wonderful lady and we are very privileged to be able to care for her.
The staff are very friendly and can't do enough. My sister and I are very happy with the care mum receives. We are kept in touch and know she is taken care of.

With a loved one that you are not able to care for it was daunting to leave her in someone else's care but we are very happy with all the care she receives.
Thank you so much for such a positive review, your Mum is a joy and pleasure to care for, she loves seeing my dog each day and her smile makes our day. We will not rest on our laurels and will always strive to go the extra mile and beyond. Thank you for allowing us the privilege of having your Mum as part of our Temple Ewell Nursing Home family.

My Dad came to live at Temple Ewell following a rapid decline in health. From the day he arrived, communication has always been excellent. The staff are kind and polite. Everyone has understood the consequences of lockdown on visiting and have been sympathetic. Dad is always clean and comfortable and is well fed. It feels as though they genuinely like him and care for him, which is lovely. The organisation of visiting is excellent and managed very safely. The environment is nice and Dad’s room is spacious, clean and bright. Detail is paid to his risk of falling and this is carefully managed.
Thank you for such a positive review. We do honestly feel like anyone coming to live with us is joining our "family".
The staff are friendly. Mum is not an easy person to deal with and staff are always helping her. Ease to get to the food needs improvement but everything is fine. There is plenty of room to walk around and is very easy for disabled people.

Thank you for a lovely review, if I can be of any help regarding food choices please do not hesitate to contact me direct, I am always more than happy to help solve any issue.
The person I was concerned with had been at the home since 2006/7. Her dementia and physical needs had markedly increased over the years. Over that long period of time, I observed an improvement in standards of nursing care, especially when Care Enterprises took over the running of the home. I...
The room, which was her 'home' was light and airy and looked out on to the countryside which she loved.
Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a positive review. Your dear friend was a much-loved member of our "family" and it was a real privilege to have cared for her.
My mum is in Temple Ewell Nursing Home. At first I was wary as she has not been in one before and the furniture, etc. did not match and it looked like it could do with a lick of paint, however, this is so unimportant in the scheme of things. The staff are amazing, they do everything that they...
My mum is in Temple Ewell Nursing Home. At first I was wary as she has not been in one before and the furniture, etc. did not match and it looked like it could do with a lick of paint, however, this is so unimportant in the scheme of things. The staff are amazing, they do everything that they possibly can to make my mum happy and always keep her safe. The staff do not treat her like a patient/client, they treat her the same way that they would their own parents. Nothing is too much trouble ever for them, the care, the food is good and plenty of it and there is even 24 hours room service. They arrange hairdressers, nail services and even Facetime calls. No one wants their parent to have to be in a home but if they do have to be in one, I can't see many better than Temple Ewell.
Thank you for taking the time to write such a lovely review. This is a lovely testament for the staff to share in, especially in light of the recent times whilst in lock-down. As a manager I am very proud of all the team and we all take it as a huge privilege to be able to care and support people who come to live at Temple Ewell Nursing Home.
We was suddenly advised our Mum was unable to return to her flat after a short stay in hospital and we were advised we needed to find care for her. Temple Ewell was the 1st home we visited we turned up unexpectedly and was made very welcome after being shown around and spending time asking all the...
We would recommend Temple Ewell for the staff and cleanliness.

Thank you so much for taking the time to write this lovely review. We always feel it is a great privilege when someone comes to live at Temple Ewell Nursing Home, it was wonderful to see this lovely lady surrounded by her family, young and not quite so young! She will long be remembered here for her sunny disposition in-spite of her circumstances. Thank you again for the lovely review, it will be shared at our next team meeting.

My father was discharged to your nursing home after a spell in hospital meant he could not go back to the care home he had lived in for 5 years. It was a very frightening time for him and us. Your staff did their utmost to take care of him and us. Sadly, he passed away after only a few weeks but you made that time more bearable for us all.
Thank you for your kind review. It was a real privilege to care for your Dad and to be able to offer support to his lovely family.
Every thing about this Nursing Home was excellent for my Mum. Management and Staff really looked after her.

My mother has been a resident of Temple Ewell Nursing home a number of years and she loves it. She is very frail physically but is totally 'with it'. She has a very bright sunny room which was redecorated for her a few years ago and really considers this room as home. All the staff are so lovely with her, very friendly and very caring and on her 90th birthday last year baked her the most amazing birthday cake and made her feel very special. Since she has been here her well-being has improved so much and I am safe in the knowledge that she will be very well looked after and should there be any 'incidents' I will be kept fully informed.
Thank you for such a lovely review. I always share the reviews with all of the staff and I know how much they, and I value such positive comments. It's such a privilege the job that we do, and we will never rest on our laurels, but continue to strive forward, continue to learn, and grow, so as we can keep delivering the very best care we can.
The nursing home my Mum was in closed and after looking at many homes in the area we opted for Temple Ewell Nursing Home because it felt right when you walked in, friendly, helpful staff, and a homely caring atmosphere. It was a distressing time for Mum as at 94 years old she did not want change...
All in all, she was treated with respect, dignity and care, always clean and tidy. Staff were very attentive. The end of life care when she passed away was second to none. Caring and efficient.
It is so lovely to read a review like this, the team work very hard but we will never stop trying to improve. We think it is a real privilege when someone chooses us and we never take that lightly. Thank you so much for taking the time to write, it is truly appreciated.

I am pleased that my dad is a resident of Temple Ewell Nursing Home. When all you see is bad comments about nursing homes it is great to see that there are some very good nursing homes that really care about their residents as Temple Ewell does. It was a very difficult decision to place my dad in a nursing home but we could not give him the care he needed at home. When my sister and I visited Temple Ewell Nursing Home, without an appointment we were very surprised that all the staff we spoke to were so helpful to us. We were shown around the vacant rooms and chose one that we thought would be best for my dad. He was privately funded first of all but even when Social Services took over the fees he was allowed to stay in the same room which was great for him. We met the owners and they spent quite some time talking to us which was very reassuring as they seem to be very hands on. All the staff have been great with my dad if we have any issues we speak to the manager who sorts it out.
We consider it a real privilege to care for each and every person that makes Temple Ewell Nursing Home their choice, and we understand that it is often a very difficult decision for all those involved. Thank you so much for such a positive review.

At a time when the actions of a small number of carers working in care and nursing homes bring the dedication and professionalism of the majority into disrepute, it is heartening to note that each and every staff member at Temple Ewell Nursing Home gives much needed professionalism, care, love and emotional support to both resident and their family, to enable them to remain positive through what are, for many, very difficult times.
Staff are always positive, polite and friendly, and fully prepared to meet the many diverse needs of everyone. In effect, the manager, supported by all members of her staff has created a real family atmosphere within the home.
It is to their credit that family members can be confident that the best is being done for their loved ones.
