My aunt was in Hollyfields for over two years and over that period we found the staff to be extremely caring towards my aunt and our family. They preserved my aunts' dignity at all times. We can't say enough good things about Hollyfields as they are so caring, helpful and compassionate under very demanding conditions. All are fantastic and deserve a medal!
Many thanks for your review for Hollyfields care home - it was an absolute pleasure to care for your Aunt. I will be sure to share your feedback with the team here. Kind regards.

I would like to thank all the staff for all they did to care for our very good friend and for keeping our memories alive over the last few years. I had emails from the manager weekly to tell us how our friend was, and that her and her staff were sharing memory books and postcards with her. Also that they were passing on our love as visiting was stopped with Covid restrictions but the staff did help us keep contact by What's App calls. You all did a fabulous job and we know she was looked after and for that, we will always be truly grateful.
Many thanks for your kind words for the care your friend received here at Hollyfields, I will share this information with the team. Kind regards.
The staff are very good on explaining everything that is needed, what will happen through my Dads stay. You can phone at any time they will always be happy to tell you what is happening and to answer questions. They gave me peace of mind to leave him and have my holiday without any worries.

Wow, what a testing time we have all found ourselves within. Living in a world governed by covid. We were already hugely adjusting to life with our dearly loved grandad, dad and husband living within a care home permanently, then covid struck and made us all feel even more removed. However, Barchester Hollyfields decided this was not to be the case, they did and have done and are doing everything within their power to keep us all as connected as possible. We've had a beautiful picture sent, showing us our loved one is safe and well, video calls, garden visits, window visits and brilliant communication from management over our dear relatives' wellbeing and updates. This has greatly eased our minds during such a difficult time. They even managed to celebrate our relative becoming a great grandad and set up beautiful balloons and banners for an emotional video call. We've sent cards, items and postcards at times that have been safely quarantined and then shared with our loved ones. Thank you all.
Thank you so, so much for these beautiful words. It has meant so much for us to be able to keep yourselves and your loved one connected, safe, informed and engaged throughout these difficult times. A huge thank you from us all at Hollyfields, and we will ensure your families thoughts are shared with the whole team.

Ivy House is an amazing place. My Dad celebrated his 80th Birthday yesterday and due to Covid I could not be with him properly to celebrate. I was, however, granted an additional garden visit so I could see him on this special day. The staff supported him to open his presents, sang happy birthday and arranged for a special tea with a birthday cake. The staff are amazing and I am in awe of their patience and kindness to Dad, at all times.
The staff are friendly. Friendly, helpful. Enjoy being here.

The activities they get up to look fantastic, especially over Christmas (the silent disco was amazing and made a great atmosphere).
I'd like to add how good they have been during this pandemic, being able to see my dad through video calls, which they've arranged is very comforting in making sure he's ok.
Overall - Thank you Hollyfields
I find your activity staff excellent and love some of your visiting singers and entertainers very good keep it up.

My mam was a resident at Hollyfields for 3 years. In that time Mam had a good quality of life, getting up most days and being entertained by the staff and outside entertainment. Unfortunately, on 4th December 2019, she passed away aged 89 years. We suggested to the home to have Mams wake there...
My mam was a resident at Hollyfields for 3 years. In that time Mam had a good quality of life, getting up most days and being entertained by the staff and outside entertainment. Unfortunately, on 4th December 2019, she passed away aged 89 years. We suggested to the home to have Mams wake there and let her leave Hollyfields as it was her last home. They gave her a lovely send-off in a private room with access to the garden.
Lovely caring home for my friend's dad, staff are very welcoming and love all the activities that are available for the residents.

I feel perfectly happy visiting my husband in Hollyfields. The staff are all friendly, that also includes the cleaning staff. He has come on really well since being there and is taking all medication etc which I could not get him to take at home. He likes the musical mornings and afternoon. There is always something going on to keep him occupied. I also enjoy sitting with him and taking him for little walks. I'm made most welcome.
My view is that my father is well cared for his mental and physical state is well managed and monitored. The staff are very caring and switched on to his mobility and safety and diet they seem to make time even though busy to listen when he wishes to chat or has some concerns about things.

We are so lucky to have our relative in such a lovely home. He couldn't be in better hands. There is a man who is a star and remains a credit to the team. I would have no hesitation to recommend this home to anyone.

Thank you, Laura, for these lovely words. Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to take care of your father.

It has been a massive relief to witness an overall lift in standards of cleanliness we've also been advised of reviews on medication, weight and activity which for us have yielded amazing results.
I think there is still some room for improvement re facilities and decor/refurbishment. However, you can tell with the overall "more relaxed" and better cared for residents that results are evident
Thank you, Greg, for your comments. I am pleased to hear that the home has improved. We are continuing to work on the other improvements that you have commented on.

My journey in Healthcare began in 2004 when I graduated with a BSC (Hons) qualification. I started my career on an NHS ward, where I gained invaluable experience and honed my skills in patient care. Over time, I transitioned my skills into medical education, expanding my knowledge and expertise.
In 2016, I decided to explore new opportunities in private healthcare and accepted a role as Deputy Ward Manager. This experience allowed me to further develop my leadership abilities while continuing to prioritise the well-being of patients.
In 2022, I made the transition into a nursing home, taking on the role of Deputy Manager. Here, my passion for the well-being of both residents and staff truly flourished. It was a privilege to contribute to creating a supportive and nurturing environment for all.
In 2023, I was honoured to be promoted to General Manager, a role that allows me to lead with compassion and dedication. My commitment to the well-being of residents and staff remains at the forefront of everything I do, driving me to continually strive for excellence in care provision.
Outside of work, I'm a proud mum to four wonderful grown-up children and step-mum to two younger children. Family means everything to me, and I cherish the time we spend together. Being a Nanna to two wonderful grandsons brings me immense joy, and I treasure every moment with them.
In my free time, I love nothing more than going on holidays with my husband. Whether it's exploring new destinations or returning to our favourite spots, I find immense happiness in discovering new cultures, cuisines and experiences. Travelling allows me to unwind, recharge, and create lifelong memories.

Hello, my name is Rebecca Chelin. Originally from South Africa, I embarked on my nursing journey in 2012, specialising in oncology. With a passion for providing compassionate care, I transitioned to the UK in 2019, eager to continue to make a difference in the lives of others. Since joining the Hollyfields team in 2023, I've had the privilege of serving as a dedicated nurse, and I'm honoured to have been promoted to the role of Deputy Manager in 2024.
Outside of work, I find joy in being a mother to two wonderful boys, who continually inspire me to strive for excellence. In my leisure time, I indulge in my love for travel and immerse myself in the captivating world of literature.
