Overall Experience

My father lived at Green Pastures for 2 years in which time he was given excellent care in every way. All the staff were kind, attentive and caring and the standard of care was exemplary. My father enjoyed various activities in the home - cooking, gardening, social groups. He was extremely content and

comfortable. We cannot thank the home enough for their care - as well as kindness to family when we visited. An excellent home I would highly recommend.

Reply from Ana Maria Drobota, Registered Manager at Green Pastures Christian Nursing HomeThank you for taking the time to share your heartfelt review. We are so pleased to hear that your father received excellent care during his time at Green Pastures. It's wonderful to know that both he and your family felt supported and welcomed. Your recommendation means the world to us, and we are grateful for your kind words.

Overall Experience

My husband became a Green Pastures resident in August 2021 and he remained there for three and a half years. Having visited so much during this time it had become my second home, and I was made so welcome such that I volunteered and have been visiting regularly these last months. When I needed to have

an operation, I decided that I would become a resident for a period to recover and I stayed in Green Pastures for 8 nights. I had the benefit of knowing a lot of staff and some residents, and was really looked after. Everyone is so caring and patient, whilst doing a very difficult job (particularly with those suffering from dementia). You are all wonderful, and I thank you so much.

Reply from Ana Maria Drobota, Registered Manager at Green Pastures Christian Nursing HomeThank you for your wonderful review! We are grateful for your kind words, your smile and the ongoing encouragement given to all of us truly brighten our days.

Overall Experience

When visiting we always get a very warm welcoming + offers of tea or coffee. If help is needed it is seen to quickly. It is obviously a Christian home. The staff are cheerful and willing to help. They show a great deal of patience with especially slow and grumpy patients. Very good patient staff ratio.

Perhaps more stewed fruit or fruit salad would help patients well being.

Reply from Ana Maria Drobota, Registered Manager at Green Pastures Christian Nursing HomeThank you so much for your kind words and thoughtful feedback! We are truly grateful for your recognition of our warm welcoming atmosphere and the dedicated staff who strive to ensure every patient feels valued and cared for. Your suggestion about including more stewed fruit or fruit salad is appreciated, and we will definitely consider it as we continue to improve our services. We are committed to providing a nurturing environment, and your insights help us in that mission. Thank you once again for your support.

Review from Trish L (Daughter of Resident) published on 2 December 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

The care my Father has received since moving her nearly 3 months ago has been amazing on so many fronts.
The staff - all of them - show true compassion, not only with Dad, but my Mother and my siblings. They have got to know us so quickly and they seem to understand the difficult time we have had with

Dad needing to move into a care home setting.
Even the Chairman of the charity knows my Dad by name on 'bumping' into him in the reception area - no clues by the name and photo placed outside his bedroom - he was 2 floors away.
My Father moved here in August 2025 having spent 2 weeks in the only care home in the country with 5* in all domains in their last two assessments however, here surpasses there for so many reasons and here is where my Dad would rather be.
The staffing levels are amazing.
I cannot praise the place enough - this is what all care homes should be like and then there would be so much less resistance from the elderly to go into one when that is really what they need.

Reply from Ana Maria Drobota, Registered Manager at Green Pastures Christian Nursing HomeThank you for your heartfelt review! We are so glad to hear that your father has received compassionate and attentive care since his arrival. It's wonderful to know that our staff have made a positive impact not only on him but also on your family during this challenging time. Your kind words inspire us to maintain our commitment to providing the highest quality of care. We truly appreciate your trust in us.

Review from Robert W (Wife of Resident) published on 2 December 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Whenever I visit my wife I am always greeted with a warm friendly welcome from all members of staff, whatever their role, in the nursing home.
I am always made to feel part of the community rather that someone visiting a resident. There is always somebody to talk too whether it be concerning the welfare

of the resident or how I am coping with the current situation.
All the staff know the residents by name and engage with them even if that is not their specific role. I would expect that from the care staff but it extends to all other members of staff who keep the nursing home running smoothly. There is an attitude that even the little things matter. An example is are the dining tables laid correctly, will the Christmas menu be and taste good. Everything in the home matters and must be right.
I cannot praise enough the way everybody is treated which makes for a happy, safe environment and even when dealing with challenging situation there are smiles and calmness.

Reply from Ana Maria Drobota, Registered Manager at Green Pastures Christian Nursing HomeThank you so much for your wonderful review! We are truly grateful for your kind words and appreciate your recognition of our team's efforts.

Overall Experience

We used Green Pastures to provide respite care for my mother following discharge from A&E as she was in a suitable condition to return home without care support in place. Green Pastures were able to take Mum into respite the day she was discharged. The Admin team were extremely helpful, as was the Care

team on arrival. The support through the transition into, and subsequently out, returning home was exemplary.
Mum heaped praise upon the whole team, particularly the care staff, complimenting them their attitude describing them as loving.

Overall Experience

My mum has been a resident at Green Pastures for just over 2 years. She has been looked after extremely well and it is obvious that the staff care and keep me informed at all times of her health and any additional needs she has. I visit her several times weekly and whilst her memory is such that she

doesn't have recollection of my visit after I have left the staff always re-assure her that I have been and that I care! There are lots of activities and trips arranged by the activities team and I often see the photos/videos which were taken, it is clear that mum was enjoying herself. I thanks everyone at Green Pastures for what they do!

Review from John W (Resident) published on 9 June 2025 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

I have been a resident of Green Pastures since Nov 2024, my late wife was a resident in 2018, my experience therefore, has been very favourable. My physical infirmity certainly required 'in house' treatment and this has been very good. I feel my life has taken on a new dimension and the daily activities

and care has enabled me to feel part of a definite community. I have particularly enjoyed the 'in house' activities, particularly the musical entertainment. The food has been good, but it would be good to have some input into the types of food. The garden is a real bonus, and the Garden Group is very enjoyable, as is the Life History Group. Church activities are mainly of an Evangelist Christian variety, whilst I am an Anglican (Liberal Catholic) and so not always to my taste - but I find the chaplains very supportive.

Reply from Ana Maria Drobota, Registered Manager at Green Pastures Christian Nursing HomeThank you for sharing your thoughtful feedback. We're delighted to hear that you feel part of our community and enjoy the activities, especially the musical entertainment, garden, and groups. We appreciate your input regarding meal options and will consider ways to involve residents more in menu choices. It's also wonderful to know that our chaplains are supportive and that you find value in our spiritual activities. Your feedback helps us continue to improve and provide a caring environment.

Review from Helen C (Sister of Resident) published on 9 June 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My brother was transferred to Green Pastures from hospital in Staffordshire, where he had been for 10 months and had developed complex additional needs. From the outset, staff at Green Pastures demonstrated an understanding of the trauma he had experienced and took time to connect with him. They did

everything to make him comfortable and feel cared for. We both received a really warm and genuine welcome. My brother began to improve immediately and began attempts at communication, after months of total disengagement. I was able to bring treasured possessions into the room which further prompted his attempts to speak. It was fantastic to visit and see him clean shaven and dressed in one of his favourite t shirts. Staff took time to find out more about him and I knew that they had really listened when I visited and found him listening to his music or found him in the lounge with other residents. Such level of care and dedication is so valuable to both of us. Thank you.

Reply from Ana Maria Drobota, Registered Manager at Green Pastures Christian Nursing HomeIt is a heartfelt privilege to have your brother with us at Green Pastures. Seeing the positive changes and improvements in him truly inspires us and encourages us to continue providing the best care every day. Thank you for your kind words and trust in us.
