Everything is very good and I and of course my father are very happy with the care that he receives in this comfortable home. I wish there could be some outings for him and perhaps a bit more in the way of visiting musical entertainers.
Thank you for your kind words. We're so pleased to hear that both you and your father are happy with the care he receives at Inglewood. His comfort and well-being are very important to us. We appreciate your suggestion about outings and musical entertainment and will certainly take it into...
Having known her for over 40 years, I am very satisfied with the care and kindness being given to my 95 year old friend who came to live at Inglewood Nursing Home in August 2024. She is extremely well looked after, enjoys her food and is very comfortable indeed. The staff are considerate, caring, gentle and have a sense of humour which is important.
Thank you for your kind words. We're so glad to hear that your friend is happy, comfortable, and well cared for at Inglewood Nursing Home. Our team truly values each resident, and it means a lot to know their kindness and care are appreciated. Please feel free to reach out anytime. We're always here to help. Kind regards.
My dad was only with you a short time but cannot fault the care and attention he was shown. The staff were excellent and very patient with him.
Thank you for your kind words. We're so glad we could care for your dad, even if it was for a short time. Our staff truly appreciated your recognition of their patience and care. Our thoughts are with you and your family. Thank you
My dad was at Inglewood for 15 months and the care he got was fantastic. I would highly recommend Inglewood.
Thank you so much for your kind words and recommendation. We are truly honoured to have had the opportunity to care for your dad during his time at Inglewood. Our team is dedicated to providing compassionate and high-quality care, and it means so much to hear that you had a positive experience. We will be sure to share your lovely feedback with our staff. Wishing you and your family all the best.
My wife was treated excellently and with dignity by all the staff. Would not hesitate to recommend!
Thank you so much for your kind words. We really appreciate your feedback and are so glad to hear that your wife received excellent care. Kind regards.
Can't thank the staff enough for looking after both my parents. They were all kind and caring to the whole family.
Thank you so much for your kind words. It was truly a privilege to care for your parents, even if it was only for a short period. Your appreciation means a lot to us, and I'll be sure to pass your message along to the entire team. Warm regards
Staff so caring, warm and friendly. Couldn't do enough for Pops. Upon arrival his bed didn't have side rails. They were going to move him to another room but the maintenance man removed the bed and replaced it with another bed which had the rails. Above and beyond.
Mum went into Inglewood Nursing Home from the hospital for end-of-life care. 3 months later has gone back to her own home. The care she received was excellent.
Thank you so much for your kind words. We really appreciate your feedback and are so glad to hear that your mum received excellent care. I will certainly pass your message on to our team. Care, honesty, family and commitment are core values of our company and our staff consistently uphold these in their work. It is wonderful to know we made a positive difference for your family. Kind regards.
The home is in an old building which needs a bit of updating and upgrading which seems to be happening the home is always very clean.
I have found the managers, the nursing staff and the carers to be friendly and caring. I am pleased I chose Inglewood. My father, although he is sometimes confused, seems happy with his care. He likes the food and his room is nice. They encourage pictures and small bits of furniture from home to make it even more homely.
My Mum was discharged from hospital for end of life care, we were offered a couple of choices of Care Home but this one had good reviews, and the whole family are glad we chose it. She is bedridden and unable to communicate but well cared for, always clean and tidy. The staff are all friendly and check on her regularly. An online diary you can access gives a detailed account of all the care she receives which we find invaluable, saves interrupting the staff to ask questions, updated regularly. Staff also phone to check we are happy with care or to discuss any changes needed. Happy to recommend to anyone. Thanks to all at Inglewood, have cared for her 2 months and counting.
During the time my friend spent at Inglewood, I was delighted with the care given to him and the way the home was managed. The staff were always friendly and cooperative and the environment was always clean and cheerful. He seems to appreciate the way he was looked after. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Inglewood to other people.
My husband was discharged from the hospital for end-of-life care at Inglewood Nursing Home. He had a lovely room overlooking the pretty garden. He was there for 10 days until he died and during that time was looked after with great care and dignity. My family and I are very grateful to all the staff at home for the care and compassion shown to us as well.
Thank you so much for your positive review. I will pass the message on to all our staff. We are very delighted that you are happy with the care provided for your husband.
The staff are always friendly and helpful. They go out of their way to make sure I am ok. Really cannot fault them at all.
Thank you for your lovely review. We are so pleased that you are happy and we love having you with us at Inglewood Nursing Home.
My husband was in Inglewood for the last four weeks of his life. It became too much for me to give care at home. He was well cared for with the nursing staff and all the staff were always thoughtful, kind and caring. It took the pressure from me at a difficult time.
Many thanks for your kind words - I will pass these on to the rest of the staff who will be very pleased. Thank you
My family have been extremely happy with the care my dad has received since he came to Inglewood. My dad seems very happy there and has settled in really well. Dad has spent the last few months in bed, as his Alzehmers has deteriorated and affected his appetite etc, it was decided as dad was struggling with his swallowing, that now all his food would be smashed for him. Just recently dad seems to have improved slightly and dad has been spending time out of bed and in the day room which has been lovely to see. Inglewood have incouraged dad to venture out of his room and spend time with the other residents.
Thank you for taking the time to leave your positive review. It is always nice to hear from family members feeling like their loved one is cared for and looked after so well with us. We will certainly pass your comments on to the team.
The atmosphere is happy and very welcoming.
The rooms are clean.
The food well prepared and edible. Residents' special requirements are catered for.
The home has an activity coordinator. Activity is essential for stimulation of the brain, and maintaining mobility and conversation.
I am very satisfied.
I think it would be great if there were phone points in the rooms. Maybe this will happen in the next year when BT will use wifi.
Thank you for your lovely review, I am so pleased to read your kind words regarding the care your relative is receiving. I will ensure your feedback is shared with the whole team. Thank you.
I cannot fault the wonderful staff for their care which is first class. Nothing too much trouble and done with good humour and genuine concern. The home is spotless and the amenities are good I have no hesitation in recommending this home to anyone.
Thank you so much for your kind words and recommendation. We will continue to strive to maintain and exceed this level of care. I will pass the message to all our team. Kind regards.
A thousand out of ten.
Thank you so much for your positive review. It was an absolute pleasure to look after your grandad. I will make sure this message is passed to the staff and they will be humbled by your lovely review.
Kind regards
Slow to relay our communications to staff or shared - re. food and feeding.
My uncle was only there three weeks and it was starting to improve and he was more settled.
Overall, I think he would have been happy to stay.
Dear Sandra, we are sorry to hear that you were unsure about aspects of your uncle's care when he first arrived at the home for his three-week respite stay. As you may know, I completed a full assessment before his admission, where I gathered as much information as possible about all aspects of his...
