Overbury House

My husband has been at Overbury House one year tomorrow. I am so happy that he is in such a lovely home. Every member of the staff treats him with kindness and respect. He is so well cared for and he is safe. I have nothing but good things to say about Overbury House; they always go the extra mile. Well done!

Outstanding management, excellent communication on Covid and updates on residents. The kindness of staff to resident and myself during difficult times. A very good nursing home. Special meals were prepared by the chef to tempt residents to eat. I felt my husband was safe and really well cared for as a stroke victim with dementia. I cannot thank the whole team enough.

It seems to be a nice place - clean and tidy with nice views. I will see more another time. I always did like Wroxham.

Two friends, a husband and wife, have been residents for more than six weeks and they are both very happy there. I find the staff very helpful and friendly and nothing seems to be too much trouble.

A lovely place with a caring and jolly atmosphere. So much brilliant work goes on there and it's clear that the staff enjoy the company of their residents as well as each other.

Overbury House was just excellent in the way they cared for my mother-in-law throughout the closing months of her life. Caring, thoughtful and thoroughly professional, right up to the end.

My mother entered the home with a certain degree of reluctance after a series of severe seizures had left us unable to care for her. We were so relieved and comforted by the warm atmosphere, the caring staff and professional nursing team. We could not have wished for more.

Recent redecoration has given the home a fresh look and there are some thoughtful touches to add interest for residents and visitors.

We are very happy that our friend is being looked after so well. All the residents look happy and well cared for. The decoration works that have been going on, have really made a difference - I'm sure a lot of hard work's been done. Well done. Please keep up the good work!

I have visited my friend here for a number of years and have never had reason to question anything regarding her welfare. The recent renovations are very impressive.

I have always found Overbury House very caring. Carers are very patient and good-humoured.

My dad was at Overbury for the last two and a half years. The care he had while he was there was outstanding, they treated him with love and respect and he was like a grandad to them all. They loved his cheeky smile and they did so much for him, I can't thank them enough, he loved being there. When he was able he joined in the activities, loved dancing especially with the female carers. The food was fantastic the chef would always go above and beyond to cook anything up whatever my dad wanted and towards the end of his life, me and my sister stayed at the home for 9 nights where we were looked after so well. Couldn't thank the staff enough. It is very hard work and they don't get the credit they truly deserve. I certainly would recommend this home and will pop in as have made some good friends. Thank you, Overbury, for doing such a great job caring for my dad.

Our mother recently passed away at Overbury House. As you can imagine it was a stressful and sad event but all your staff were excellent and very professional at all times, (before, during and after). Mother was at Overbury House for four-plus years and was well looked after at all times.

My father and I arrived today to visit his wife my mother. The staff were all busy as usual, however, they still took the time to speak to the individual residents including my mum. The ask if the individual is alright by name and if they need anything. Although staff must be feeling somewhat deflated by the recent CQC report they still carry on in a pleasant and caring positive manner. There have been significant improvements in staff relations and I feel that CQC did not account for this at their inspection.

When I came to visit my mum today, the summer fete was happening in the garden. The staff had put in so much thought and preparation, to make the day a lovely event for the residents and visitors, colourful bunting and streamers flowing from the trees, live music with an extremely talented singer and well-known songs (gentle but upbeat, some from the past, all positive and melodic), staff participating to ensure the residents were happy, delicious cakes, BBQ and games. Thank you.

My aunt has been in Overbury House for just over a year now. All the staff including the very supportive manager have been extremely kind and loving towards my aunt. I cannot fault a thing and feel extremely fortunate to have found such a superb home. We are however very sad that the manager is leaving and hope that his legacy will be carried on by the new manager.

The staff go out of their way to make us feel welcome when we visit. I can't praise or thank everyone enough.

He is now holding his own and much better but we all feel he really 'belongs' now.

On my visit to see my husband this morning I was over the moon. The atmosphere was a very happy one, carers were busy doing Christmas trimmings and having happy times, joining in with the carols and encouraging the residents too. I have said this before but I still feel the same - that, if I have to go into a care home, Overbury House is where I want to be. It just becomes better and better. All the staff, the chef, our activities lady and the cleaners are excellent - happy, smiling and so friendly and ace new Manager.

Mum passed away peacefully at Overbury House in Wroxham in June this year. She had been resident at Overbury for 2 years. Mum always loved the sing-a-long with the activities lady and even when she lost her voice, in her latter days, she used to clap and join in. I will never forget mums last days and the personal service afforded to us by the lovely new manager and the nurses and all the staff at the home. They are all a credit to the care industry and I already miss them all dearly. On the sad (but expected) night we lost, the manager called us personally and met us at the home in the early hours to break the sad news himself. From her first day at the home to her very last, mum loved being at Overbury House and we couldn't have been happier. Thank you to everybody there for your years of friendship and love.
