My father is unable to communicate due to his dementia, however, it is clear from his calm state and smile that he is in good care. He sings and jokes so whilst he may not be as coherent as before, he shows he's still happy.

I have visited my brother-in-law many times over the last 3 years. The staff are extremely competent and friendly. Very caring and we have complete confidence that the facility cares a great deal for their patients.

This is the third home my mother has stayed in and is by far the best. The decor and the building are a bit dated and tired. That being said, every time I visit my mother she is happy, calm and contented. She also looks well cared for, clean and tidy. The staff are polite, well mannered and caring. I would happily recommend this care home to anyone looking for a safe, secure, kind residence for a loved one.
While I have no experience of any other nursing homes with which to make comparisons, I can say that all the staff that I have encountered on my regular visits have been very pleasant and friendly to both myself and my mother.

Staff are very friendly, nothing is too much trouble. The food according to my relative is also very good. The bedroom he has is very light and airy. I think the staff work very hard to make the atmosphere as homely for the residents as much as possible.

Both the nursing and care staff at Julie Richardson are first rate. They all treat my father with the dignity that is so important. The nurses are skilled, kind and attentive. They are responsive to my father's needs and promptly address any concerns our family may have. The care staff treat my father as a loved family member and provide excellent personal care, exercise, entertainment and food. I am pleased to say my father is as content and comfortable as possible thanks to all the people caring for him and their mix of good humour and expertise.
Accommodation, fixtures and fittings appear dated. Care is excellent.

Staff are excellent and very attentive to my father-in-law. I feel everyone goes out of their way to assist or help in any way needed. Meals look good for the few times I have been here at mealtime. I do, however, feel his room is tired and would benefit from some different flooring other than carpet. Otherwise, so far so good.
Went to Banbury Museum, Spice Ball Park Picnic, spent a great day out, all the gang went out together. We spent a smashing day out together. Excellent care for everyone.

My 95 year old mother in law was moved from the hospital into a "hospital bed" in this nursing home. She was recovering from pneumonia but also had Lewy body dementia. We were concerned at the time as we knew nothing about this home. Our concerns were groundless. This place is a gem. I really cannot praise the staff highly enough for their dedication, professionalism, patience and kindness they showed to my mother in law. It is never a nice experience for the relatives in moving a loved one into a nursing home and we were no exception. However, on meeting the care home manager and her staff we realised Mum was in safe hands and that she would receive excellent care. She was in the nursing home for a total of 8 weeks before she was taken ill again, with pneumonia and rushed to the hospital where she passed away on Boxing Day 2017. Many thanks again to the nursing home staff for allowing Mum to keep her dignity to the end.
She is happy at the home. She is treated well and with respect. She likes the food that is served. I would recommend the Julie Richardson Nursing Home to anybody.

I just feel I should say that my dad was in a care home just outside Banbury before he died and there is no way that dad was looked after or treated as well as mom is now. The staff are all brilliant, they look after mom really well and you can look forward to a smile and very friendly chat when...
I just feel I should say that my dad was in a care home just outside Banbury before he died and there is no way that dad was looked after or treated as well as mom is now. The staff are all brilliant, they look after mom really well and you can look forward to a smile and very friendly chat when visiting. When calling the home this morning, I thought just how well mom looked. A great home with great people. A care home to look forward to. (Book me a bed)!
I visit once a week different days. The home is always nice and clean and I find standards high. Staff are extremely pleasant and the standards again high. My husband is well cared for and I would say in his own little world very happy. Thank you to the manager for very well trained staff.

I regularly visit my brother. I am impressed with the kind, caring attitude shown towards my brother. I feel the staff work well together and give a homely fun atmosphere. They deal professionally with sometimes challenging behaviour. I love the fact that my brother has been able to visit town, National Trust properties etc. My brother also especially enjoys visits e.g from musicians. I feel efforts are also made to treat each person as an individual.
