Ivelhurst Nursing Home Ltd

Mum and I would highly recommend Ivelhurst Care home and thankful we found the right place for Dad.

Overall excellent. Lack of understanding of mum's profound deafness, a need to use white board for all communication.

Ivelhurst Nursing home, have been so supporting to my Dad, Derek, and Us as a family through my Dads declining health. He had been so happy, content, and so well cared for during his 6 years as a resident until 24.8.26 when he sadly passed away. Can't fault the staff!!

Since my mother Joan moved into Ivelhurst Care Home my family and I have felt so at ease your staff are alway kind patient and cherful and treat mum with great respect. Many thanks

Happy to Discuss any points.

Staff are happy and friendly. They care for my nan with respect and dignity. Managers are happy to help with any requests. Nan's room has everything she needs.

I continue to be more than pleased with the level of care that my brother receives. He is looked after by kind and caring staff who stimulate and motivate him so he continues to enjoy life.

My mum has been at Ivelhurst for around 4 years now. Her care has always been excellent and the staff are friendly and considerate. I know my mum is being well cared for and that gives me great peace of mind. I thank everyone for all they do. I know it is a hard job and it is hard for me to see my mum now, with dementia that has completely changed her life. This is the best situation it can be in the circumstances.

I highly rate this home, my mum is a very complexed case, one that no local home to our family home would take on, the amazing staff have been so kind, caring and patient, with my mum. We travel 45mins, we are made to feel like part of there family. Everytime we come a warm welcome. I could not wish for a nicer friendly home to have my mum in. The nurses that manage my mums needs and medication have been nothing but amazing. The staff are a credit to the home. I've even seen management step in to help at a weekend with the care of residents, this is a true reflection being part of a team. I cannot thank this home enough for the high standards in which they hold. My mum is always clean, and very well cared for, I couldn't wish for anything more for my mum, the staff are so patient.

The whole atmosphere is just so beautiful and in my honest opinion my wife is so lucky to have been placed in this wonderful nursing home.

My mom has been here since last August 2025 came in under palliative care and now is off palliative care xx I feel like I'm visiting my mom at her house rather than a nursing home Judith is always smiling and friendly every time we visit

I am very pleased with the care and support you are giving my Auntie (Flossie).

I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for that extra special care for there loved ones

I absolutely love the quality of care given to my mum they are very patient and caring. My mum is very settled here and the level of one to one care my mum requires is 24/7 and they provide this exceptionally well. The staff are very welcoming and friendly and do their jobs well. It is a lovely care home with brilliant care my mum is very mobile and very often (most days) the carer looking after mum will take her for a walk around the gardens or to the park which she really enjoys and knowing that they take her out as much as possibly makes me happy. Judith who is often with mum when I visit is such a lovely lady and I can tell she cares a lot about mum and they have a lovely connection, she is very good with mum and understands her care needs. If I had to change one thing it would be that mum was closer to home so I could visit more often but knowing she is looked after and cared for so well is very reassuring.

The staff here not only look after the resident in their care but the whole family who visit, spend time or need to chat.They are warm, welcoming, friendly and caring and treat you with professionalism care and dignity.

The home is very welcoming and the friendly caring staff are always happy to help naga and jay stand out as always happy to go the extra mile to help mum and us as we did not want to put mum into a nursing home but the hospital took the decision away from us when she was put onto palliative care we had a list of homes to visit some looked like posh hotels but as soon as we went into Ivelhurst we had a warm feeling and there was no bells and whistles or hard sell but we could see strait away the most important thing was giving the residents the best possible care. And mum has improved since being at ivelhurst and her condition has stabilised. and this is we feel is down to the excellent care and friendly atmosphere.

My wife was admitted quickly to Ivelhurst after all attempts to nurse her at home had failed, and settled in, although Vascular Dementia made this difficult for her. Eating became difficult, and staff helped with this. Her doctor visited and explained the road ahead. During my wife's final days, I visited from 5 am and my daughters throughout the day. My wife died peacefully with our daughters and myself with her. She was at all times treated professionally with care, compassion and love. Following her death, she was washed and dressed in clothes of our choice, ready for the undertaker. During her time at Ivelhurst, we all became one family. Meals, cakes and drinks always available. Our worries were taken away, and she was in safe hands.

My mam stayed at Ivelhurst Nursing Home in Yeovil for a week and she loved it. Mum interacted with the staff and other residence as well as joining in the activities. Mum has been in the nursing home before and normally she moans and complaints bout everything. It was nice to see mum had enjoyed herself.

The team at Ivelhurst leave me full of confidence that my dad has the best quality of care. Despite his condition meaning that he can be rude or unkind, the staff are always like his best friend as well as his carers. They really do care. Naga particularly makes him smile, this is all I can ask for. Thank you all so much.

I cannot say enough good things concerning the staff's devotion to patient care is second to none. They couldn't do enough for father during his end of life care and they were so kind to the whole family when we were visiting dad.
