Food very good and all staff assisted when required.
Thank you so much for your lovely words. Your feedback will be passed on to the team at Inglewood Nursing Home.
Very clean. Staff are friendly.
Kind regards.
The nursing care was gentle and took lovely care of my husband.
Kind regards.
Unfortunately, his time with them was cut short but even in his last hours the staff were caring, supportive and gave my dad the utmost dignity and respect. Can't thank them enough.
Nursing home is warm. Food is very good. Entertainment poor, leaves a lot to be desired, too much other work not connected with job. Some excellent staff mainstay of the home. Agency staff are not so good, English to be desired, all should be able to communicate to residents, also to carry out management instructions.
Kind regards
My mother was sent to Inglewood Nursing Home for end-of-life care. The whole experience for me was first-class and I am confident my mother could not have had better care. The staff were most pleasant and attentive. I wish I had known about Inglewood previously, I would have liked to transfer my mother from the home she was in.
The staff are wonderful and have been most professional towards my relative. I can't say how good the experience has been and my father has received the utmost level of care in his final days.
Thank you so much for your kind words. Heartfelt thoughts go out to you in this time of sorrow.
Many thanks.
Rani
My son was cared for with kindness and thoughtfulness by all members of the staff at Inglewood Nursing Home. I would highly recommend this care home to anyone.
Thank you for your kind words, it means a lot to our staff and other families looking for a place for their loved one in a nursing home. It was a privilege and a pleasure to look after your son. Best wishes to you and your family, the Inglewood team.
We are very pleased with the care that Dad receives at Inglewood. All of the staff go out of their way to make him feel comfortable and cared for. He really appreciates all of the interactions that he has with them, and he feels he has made a lot of new friends.
Kind regards,
Rani.
Thank you to everyone for all your help and hard work.
Thank you so much for your kind words about us, it is very much appreciated.
Kind regards,
Rani.
The staff at Inglewood Nursing Home are lovely and always very happy and polite. My aunty has been there since September but has deteriorated and can no longer look after herself. She is well cared for and always clean and comfortable.
Thank you for your kind words and recognition of the team.
Kind regards,
Rani.
From the first meeting with the manager until my mother-in-law's death, Inglewood Nursing Home's staff have been brilliant. We were kept fully informed at all times and everyone was caring and supportive over a very difficult period for the whole family.
Kind regards,
Rani.
My father-in-law came to Inglewood Nursing Home for end-of-life care and we couldn't have been more impressed with the kindness of the staff, the room and site were comfortable and clean and we were kept informed of his progress. Thank you for making this difficult time that bit easier.
Thank you so much for your kind feedback. I will update all our team with your wonderful and supportive comments.
Kind regards,
Rani.
They have a good programme of activities which my mother enjoyed. Our dog was able to visit which really pleased my mother.
Dear Graham, thank you for your review and all your support. It is always really encouraging for all of us to hear positive feedback from our families. I will ensure they get to hear your feedback.
My uncle was transferred from the hospital to Inglewood Nursing Home under palliative nursing. He was made very comfortable and provided with excellent care, including medical care by the professional team of staff. The communication from the nursing home to the family was outstanding, especially the relative's information service. My family felt very reassured and confident my uncle was in excellent hands and being cared for to the highest possible standard with dignity. I would highly recommend Inglewood Nursing Home to anybody when the time becomes necessary for a relative to go into care. Thank you to all the wonderful staff and exceptional management team at Inglewood.
Thank you for your lovely kind words, it means a lot to our staff and other families looking to place their loved one in a nursing home. It was a privilege and a pleasure to look after your uncle. Best wishes to you and your family. The Inglewood Team.
I can not tell you how pleased I was with everything they did for my mum. The care and attention were outstanding from day one. Great people all the way through the home. Every time I left Mum, I felt confident that she was being looked after.
Dear Phil, thank you so much for your heartfelt feedback and comments, which mean such a lot to the team. She was such a lovely person and it was our pleasure to welcome her to our family and look after her. As you can imagine, we miss her very much. Please accept, once again, our condolences on your loss.
Excellent care and exceptional management. The staff are wonderful - friendly and approachable. Inglewood handled the Covid situation very well and maintained contact with Mum where appropriate. The staff have made a difficult time so much easier to cope with.
Thank you for your great feedback, much appreciated. Will pass this to all our team.
My mother was well looked after at the home and before the pandemic enjoyed the activities and trips out.
Thank you for taking the time to write such a lovely review of our home. We have an amazing team who works hard to provide the best care and support for residents and their families. So it really is pleasing to receive such positive and encouraging feedback.
Excellent care and staff, who are all very friendly. My sister has said she is very happy with where she is and the care and respect the staff afford her. The home has managed the recent Covid-19 outbreak exceedingly well and has kept me informed at all times.

I would like to commend all of the staff at Inglewood Nursing Home. Everyone is kind, caring and concerned for my mother’s well being. Each member of the staff calls her by name, holds her hand and spends time talking to her when she’s awake as well as when she’s having a rough day. I live in America and it’s so very difficult not being able to be there with her every day but I know she is being loved and cared for. I can check on her several times a day through the web-based care notes and speak to her several times a week by phone calls. Inglewood Nursing Home is truly the best care home available.
Dear Sherri, thank you for taking the time to write such a lovely review of our home. We have an amazing team that works hard to provide the best care and support for residents and their families. So it really is pleasing to receive such positive and encouraging feedback. Your relative is such a pleasure to look after and is very much loved here at Inglewood.
