Selly Wood House Nursing Home

My father has been a resident at this nursing home for over a year now. He has complex needs, including personal care needs and vascular dementia. The staff at Selly Wood House are always bright and positive in attitude towards my dad and others. They seem genuinely friendly and pleased to do their jobs, and I am full of admiration for the work they do. My dad is safe and cared for with smiles and consideration, which is hard to put a price on. Recruitment and HR have done well at this place of care work.

I find Selly Wood House a very good home. All staff are always kind and helpful. The activities are always good. Management are always helpful.

We were very upset at the thought of our dad being moved into a nursing home from a stay in hospital when it became apparent dad could not return to his bungalow due to ill health, but Selly Wood staff have been absolutely brilliant, we could not thank them enough.

The care m Mom had received in the few weeks she had been there had been excellent. All of the staff are friendly polite and professional They go the extra mile to make her welcome and comfortable. I am always kept informed of any developments. She loves her room, the food , the activities and the attention the staff pay to making her feel like this is a real home for her now. After 4 months in hospital and being virtually housebound for 2 years previously, she now seems much happier in herself. Last week was the first time I'd seen her laugh properly in a long time. Thank you all for everything you do. It makes such a difference. I now have complete peace of mind knowing that she is safe and well cared for. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Sellywood House to others who are looking for a nursing home for a relative or friend.

She has been in a few months so far I have nothing to be concerned about!

I would happily be a resident here if it became necessary! We can't recommend the care here highly enough.Thank you to all the staff.

We can honestly say the care is excellent. The staff are honestly so caring , helpful, from management, nursing team, to the domestics. My Mother in laws skin remains in wonderful condition, considering how frail and thin she is, we put that down to the wonderful care of the staff. Hygiene is definitely a key factor making sure the the residents catch no infections, we as a family feel content and relaxed knowing she is being cared for respectfully. The activities for residents that can join in are wonderful too. It is a pleasure to visit and we feel after over 2 years that they are like good friends and family. The attention to her diet and health are 100%. This is definitely the right home for her, and would like to thank everyone who cares for her.

My mother has been at Sellywood nursing home for about 6 months and seems to have settled in nicely. All my mother's needs seem to be catered for . I cannot fault the staff very caring and compassionate.

My mother-in-law was moved into this wonderful nursing home in August 2023. She was expected to pass within a few weeks. However, 8 months later she has improved significantly due to the care and attention given by each member of this community. Everyone smiles, takes their time to speak and looks after my mother-in-law. She is fed, her whole welfare is monitored and an update is shared with her family.

Every member of staff from the kitchen, cleaning, caring, and nursing have given Mom the very best of their skill. The management should be proud of all these people because we are.

My cousin is a very demanding resident and complains a lot, but all the experience I have had with staff has been positive. I feel she is being well looked after. She complains mainly about night staff, but as I say she is very demanding so I really don't know.

My mom was brought here at the end of August 2023. She was given three months life expectancy but continues to maintain stable six months on. All the staff are helpful, friendly and always appear to be fully engaged with each patient. My mum is encouraged to take part in the various activities.

Mom has been here about 5 weeks now and has settled in well. The staff all look after her very well and treat her with respect and dignity. The home is kept very clean and the food is excellent, Mom says she is very happy in her new home.

As soon as I entered Selly Wood House Nursing Home in October 2023 when my husband became a resident, I had the impression it was a happy environment. The nurses and care workers are always very pleasant and helpful and always have a smile. The standard of care is excellent and so is the food. And I would recommend this nursing home to everyone.

My experience has been that the staff are incredibly caring, professional, and skilled at what they do, and my mum really responded positively to their care. She is nursed in bed and has to be fed, and it takes a great deal of patience to get her to eat and drink, as I can personally testify, but the staff are really patient and really good at coaxing her. They are always friendly and happy to give me an update on my mum, and they speak very affectionately about her. My mum is always clean and looks well cared for, and her room is always tidy and well-cleaned. As a family, we have been really pleased with the care my mum has received at Selly Wood House.

A warm and wonderful place, home from home. The standard of care is excellent by all the members of a fantastic team. The management lead and blend the team to perfection in every way. Nothing is too much trouble for each and every one of them. My family member has all her needs met, above and beyond. I thank them all from the bottom of my heart; they make her smile every day. "It's priceless".

I find the whole atmosphere calm, warm and professional. My mom has been at the home for 5 years, so I have seen some really great changes. My mum always looks well cared for and comfortable and her room is always clean, neat and tidy. Staff are friendly and welcoming, and I find a general 'open door' policy from the manager.

My brother has been cared for extremely well in every way. Activities every day, Monday-Friday. Saturday Films. If anyone wants to go to church on Sundays. Exercises that help my brother.

My mother spent the last months of her life in Selly Wood House. She was treated with dignity and respect by the staff, who actually cared about the person in their care. As a family, we highly recommend this nursing home. The staff kept in touch through all stages of her care, and we never felt it was too much trouble for them. A big thank you goes to everyone there for making a very sad time more bearable, knowing that she was in good hands.

Keep up the great work, guys.
