Review from Malcolm N (Son of Resident) published on 17 November 2023 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
After spells in the hospital/rehab centre, my mum went to live at Field House on 14/9/23, where she stayed until passing away peacefully in her sleep on 10/10/23.
The reality was that Mum was not going to get better, so it was a question of managing the situation as best as possible. This was achieved by the outstanding care she received from all the staff/management of Field House. Nothing was too much trouble despite the high level of care needed by Mum. The quality of care and the love and affection by which it was delivered were both a great source of strength and comfort to her family.

In recognition of this, Mum's family have decided that donations in memory of Mum should go to Field House Care Home.

Review from Gloria W (Wife of Resident) published on 21 September 2023 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My husband moved into Field House from the hospital in September 2021 being expected to live only a few weeks. He eventually passed away August 2023 almost two years later. His prolonged life was almost entirely due to the wonderful care he received at Field House. I cannot praise the staff too highly for their dedication, nursing expertise, standards of food and cleanliness, and arranged activities, all carried out with kindness and concern for the residents. It didn't stop there. Visitors were always welcomed and invited to engage with staff. I certainly recommend Field House to anyone needing a home for any loved ones.

We are deeply touched by your words and immensely grateful for leaving such a beautiful review - thank you. Looking after your husband was a joy for us and we are so happy we could support him for almost 2 years.

Overall Experience

The care and attention given at Field House Care Home was exemplary. Rooms are comfortable, nicely furnished with a TV in each one. The management and staff were very kind, considerate and built up an excellent rapport with the people they tended. Laundry facilities are provided. Activities were given for residents to join in. Little trips out plus entertainment. The food was excellent with many drinks provided during the day. Bearing this in mind, I would highly recommend Field House.

Recently I have made a number of visits to Field House care home, to see my brother. I was impressed with the standard of care and kindness that he received. The care staff were respectful and always did their best for him at such a difficult time.
His room was bright and clean, with plenty of stimulation for the residents.

I found it to be an excellent care home and well-managed.

Review from Philip W (Brother of Resident) published on 13 December 2022 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

It is difficult to accurately score all of the qualities of the care home, but my sister has always appeared to be settled, comfortable and well looked after. I have met a range of staff with different responsibilities and have found them all to be caring and thoughtful people. My sister feels "at home" in Field House, and I feel she is in good hands when I leave. It would be lovely if the windows came down to the floor so that she could appreciate the view more easily.

Reply from Alexandra Grozea, SEO and Marketing Manager at Field House

We are so happy to hear your sister feels at home in Field House and that you can rest assured she is looked after - thank you so much for taking the time to leave us this review. Everyone at Field House will be happy to receive it.

Review from Hilary W (Sister of Resident) published on 13 December 2022 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My sister was transferred to Field House from the hospital on the 9th of November for assessment following a stroke at the beginning of August. Sadly she died on Sunday 20th of November. Although she was only a resident for just over a week, the care that she received from everyone was above and beyond what we could have expected. All the staff who looked after her were brilliant. Really kind and respectful. They made my sister's last days as comfortable as they could, and they looked after the family as well. I send my love and thanks to them all.

Review from Suzanne M (Daughter of Resident) published on 15 September 2022 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My father has spent the last four months being moved around in hospital. It was such a relief to find a care home that felt like home. A place where my father is treated with dignity and care. Outstanding support, compassion, care, and management. Lots of activities are shared in a monthly newsletter format, and distributed to families and residents so that they can choose suitable activities that interest them. For once I do not have to worry about my dad.

Reply from Alexandra Grozea, SEO and Marketing Manager at Field House

Overall Experience

Field House is a credit to staff, management, carers, cleaners, activity and maintenance, and gardeners. The gardens and plants are outstanding. The home is spotless and very welcoming. Everyone is very approachable and caring. The way my mum's eyes lit up when carers and staff entered her room (which was spotless) was a great comfort to us. There are activities and day trips. Visiting at Christmas was magical, the decorations were outstanding and Christmas day fun. Mum was treated with love and dignity right to the end which we are truly grateful. Thank you Field House, you are all amazing.

Reply from Richard Crocker, CEO at Field House

Review from R H (Relative of Resident) published on 19 January 2022 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

I have had a relative staying at Fields House since October. She has had the utmost care and attention. When arriving, she needed constant nursing care which was provided day and night. To date, she is her old sparky self and speaks so highly of the kindness of the staff and wonderful food. She has made a friend and has made Fields House her permanent home. The Christmas decorations have been wonderful. Well done Field House!

Reply from Richard Crocker, CEO at Field House

Thank you for taking the time to send in this review. I am extremely pleased to hear that the experience has been so good for you.

Review from Pat D (Daughter of Resident) published on 9 November 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My father was admitted to Field House for assessment after a stay in hospital. It was his first stay in a nursing home (despite being 100 years old), and I was anxious about how he would feel. I needn’t have worried. The home has a welcoming and friendly atmosphere, and the staff are all very professional, approachable, and kind. A sign of great teamwork and leadership. The standard of the rooms and communal spaces is very good indeed and there is a pleasant garden. Overall, it has been a very positive experience both for my father and for me, and I have no hesitation in recommending this care home to you.

Field House is clean and well maintained which is important in any care home but above all, it's the staff that make it good. The care afforded to my Mum during her stay was excellent. All the staff from care workers to office staff to cleaners to kitchen staff were excellent. They gave my Mum time, care, respect and above all dignity right to the end.

A very well-kept and organised care home. The staff are most friendly and welcoming. The room where my wife is staying is spotlessly clean, very well decorated and furnished. The care home is set in a residential area but very quiet due to placement off the main room.

Review from C W (Daughter of Resident) published on 8 April 2021 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Tucked away behind houses and a neighbouring school, instantly we carried, we were impressed. Easy car parking, well-kept building and flower tubs full of pretty plants. The building is very secure, even due to Covid restrictions, a side entrance makes a safe entrance to a rear garden. The stars of the care home offered here are the staff, reassuring, calm, kind and professional. My mum was treated with dignity, comfort, even during her last days. I would not hesitate to recommend Field House care home.

Reply from Richard Crocker, CEO at Field House

Thank you for this review, great to hear that you have found our home to be a nice environment. We completely agree that the staff make the home what it is and they will be very pleased to hear this wonderful feedback. Thank you for allowing us to care for your Mum.

A very clean and pleasant home. The friendly staff always on hand if needed, to answer questions and also to taking residents on day trips, doing arts and crafts, painting, dancing, all sorts of activities and ensuring the residents were happy, well cared for and their safety is paramount. All in all, I would highly recommend this home to all. A wonderful friendly home.

Review from Lynn J (Wife of Resident) published on 11 February 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Sadly the time my husband spent in Field House was the most difficult time for all of us as a family, from him not being allowed to shower for two weeks while in isolation and continued forced isolation and no shower each time he had an outpatients appointment, even though the guidelines stated by Health England said that a person attending an outpatients appointment or A&E would not be required to be put in isolation in care homes. This was ignored and at one point he wasn't able to shower for nearly a month. We decided the word care was missing from this facility and managed to get him moved before the next lockdown.

Reply from Richard Crocker, CEO at Field House

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, we do appreciate all feedback. I'm sorry you feel you haven't had a good experience with us.

Mum came to Field House in January 2020 as she was unable to continue living alone after several falls. She was immediately impressed by the friendly and welcoming atmosphere. The staff have been very kind and have gone out of their way to make her stay a happy one. All the family are relieved to know she is in such a safe environment. She enjoys all the meals and is very happy with the variety of options The family are able to keep in daily touch as she has a landline in her room, which is bright and airy, also kept very clean and is well decorated. We are all very grateful to all the staff and feel she couldn't be better looked after in any home.

Dee
Dee Job Title:Nurse managerJoined: 2007

I started my career in nursing 41 years ago, in 1982, as a Nursing Assistant in Hortham Hospital, for people with learning disability. I started my nurse training in 1985 and I have worked in various clinical settings since qualifying as a nurse.

I first started as a Registered Nurse Manager in 1993 in a nursing home working for Southmead Health Authority. Later on, I worked at Brandon Trust in various managerial roles for people with learning disability. I then worked in the private sector in elderly care.

After a short break, I commenced my career with Bristol Care Homes in 2017 at Field House as a Carer. I have worked in various roles within Field House becoming a Registered Nurse Manager in September 2018. I enjoy working for Bristol Care Homes as I like the values and philosophy of the organisation. They value the staff and strive for positive outcomes for the residents who live within the homes.

I am dedicated and passionate about my role and enjoy working with both staff and residents.

I enjoy spending time with my family, especially my granddaughter, looking after my dogs, and travelling to various destinations.

Holly GreenJob Title:Deputy Nurse ManagerJoined: 2025

Hello! I’m Holly, Deputy Nurse Manager here at Field House. Caring for others has always been part of who I am - my mum even wrote in my baby book that I’d grow up to be a nurse!

I began my journey in care in 2003 at 18 as a bank care assistant and worked my way up through senior roles before qualifying as a Registered Mental Health Nurse in 2021. My passion for mental health care is deeply personal, and I’m dedicated to creating a safe, supportive environment for every resident.

At Field House, I oversee well-being, manage care plans, and make sure daily life runs smoothly. I love getting to know our residents and helping them feel truly at home.

Fun fact: I was named after the musician Buddy Holly, so music has always been a big part of my life!

I look forward to welcoming you and making your time with us as comfortable and fulfilling as possible.

Marcia Ellington
Marcia EllingtonJob Title:Well-being ManagerJoined: 2017

I’ve been working at Bristol Care Homes since 2017.

Bristol Care Homes is a great organisation to work for because they value their staff just as much as they value their residents, and their vision is something I am very passionate about. Having grandparents on both sides affected by dementia, I have the greatest empathy for the elderly and those who are living with it.

I want to make a difference in the lives of the residents by taking a holistic approach and providing relevant activities. Important and meaningful.

Within this company, there are excellent training opportunities for development and growth; in my case, I progressed from Activities Co-ordinator to Social Engagement and Well-being Manager in three years, something I am very proud of.

I enjoy spending time with my family away from work. I like singing, dancing, and taking my dogs for walks. Knowing how valuable life is, I like to live it to the fullest.
