Review from A L (Daughter of Resident) published on 31 October 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

I was put in a very difficult position as my mom was in a community hospital, after several admissions to the acute hospital, but was deteriorating and nearing end of life. I was asked to find a nursing home that would suit her needs. I looked at 2 nursing homes but, felt instantly, when walking in

to one of the rooms at Rashwood Care Home, that this was the place for my mom. She moved in the next day.
I have not been disappointed. The nurses and care team are fantastic. Although mom doesn't each too much, they will provide anything that she wants at any time. My mom has settled so well, that although she is very poorly, she is most certainly stable. The staff are all approachable, and I have every confidence that they know my mom well. I feel I can express my concerns at any time and action taken where appropriate. Thank you for being such a wonderful team. You have all made the situation better for me and the rest of the family.

Review from Christianne H (Daughter of Resident) published on 28 October 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Rashwood has a very warm and friendly environment from the moment you step through the door. Staff are genuinely caring and build good relationships with the residents. They are always available to listen and will accommodate most things at a moment's notice. Food is varied menu wise and a good selection

on offer.

My only criticism would be around some of the planned activities as our mum only has use of one hand so cannot do majority of things on offer. Also there could be more thought put into the activities themselves as can come across as a bit childlike. Most people are intelligent & may find some activities a little patronising? Just my opinion of course!

Review from Jim W (Son of Resident) published on 26 September 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My mother first checked into Rashwood for a week or twos respite. She was slightly reluctant to go at first but after a very impressive tour of the facilities and the wonderful grounds , she decided to give it a go. Within a day or two she felt relaxed and happy. She realised she was in a much more

suitable and safer environment than what she was used to at home and she is now a long term resident. The carers are so friendly, fun and attentive; nothing is too much trouble. The fact that many of them have worked there for decades speaks volumes about the friendly atmosphere. We can visit her anytime and whenever we do all the staff are welcoming and professional : it gives us a lot of comfort to know that mum is in such safe hands. The facilities and food are excellent ; the gorgeous gardens are a real bonus and allow mum to spend time outdoors relaxing or exploring the paths on her mobility scooter. Thank you all for looking after her so well.

Overall Experience

The staff at Rashwood are always on hand for a chat and to make sure the residents are comfortable.
Today I joined my aunt for lunch which was 3 delicious courses. My aunt was offered a choice of activities for the afternoon-watching a film, to play a game with a staff member or a walk round the beautiful

gardens.
Rashwood is always clean and well maintained. And the gardens are beautiful at all times of the year.
My aunt has settled into her new home and I'm confident we have made the right choice for her.

Overall Experience

My father was admitted to Rashwood in April 2025.
The care he received was first class. All the staff were friendly and professional.
The overall opinion is that the whole place is very accessible, clean, tidy. The grounds are well kept and very picturesque with a variety of wildlife.
The care team

were brilliant, very friendly and chatty, but also respectful. They nursed my dad until his passing in May 2025.
I cannot rate this place, and the staff, high enough. They were very supportive through out the entire time of dads residence.
I am sorry it took so long to put this review in, but it has been hard to adequately send our thanks.

I arrived at Rashwood directly from hospital where I had a complete hip replacement. |I was very pleased to be shown to a ground floor room very well appointed and with a view of magnificent gardens. From this moment I was treated with kindness best of care and good humour whatever was the designated

job of the person concerned nothing was too much trouble and all its care and comfort helped me to heal and return home on 14/6/25.

Overall Experience

My Mother moved in at the end of February 2025 and our family is very pleased with the care she has received. All of the Staff that I have met so far are not only professional and attentive but genuinely kind, friendly and compassionate.
Rashwood has beautiful gardens which are maintained to a high

standard and my mother has lovely views from her room.
Her room is spacious and comfortable. The food is to her liking and they cater for her particular needs and wants. I enjoy visiting due to the lovely surroundings. I am looking forward to being able to walk around the gardens and sit in the garden with my mother as soon as the weather improves.
I would highly recommend Rashwood Care Home.

Rashwood Care Home is a very friendly and high quality home. From our first contact with the home until the day my mother returned to her own home we were always made very welcome by all the staff, in whatever capacity they were working. Nothing is too much trouble whether you are a resident or a visitor.

The standard of care is high including the nursing care an the friendliness is genuine. Thank you to all the staff who made my mother's stay so enjoyable, I'm sorry that I can't remember all of your names.

Review from David E (Son of Resident) published on 20 January 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My mother was discharged from hospital to Rashwood for end-of-life care back in March 2024. She was very poorly when she was admitted. Due to the love and care that Mom has received at Rashwood she has clearly thrived and is very happy where she is. Rashwood offers many activities to residents which

is fantastic for interaction with others. The gardens are beautiful so during decent weather it's lovely to walk around the grounds and appreciate how well they are kept. All of the staff are very caring and there is nothing that is ever too much trouble to ask for. I would highly recommend Rashwood to anyone looking for a nursing/care home for their loved one.

Review from J M (Daughter of Resident) published on 23 July 2024 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Two weeks ago my mom was diagnosed in hospital with a totally unexpected illness and we rapidly had to find somewhere as local as possible that would offer her the best possible end-of-life care for the very short time she had left. Rashwood fitted the bill 100%. From the minute we stepped through the

door to view its suitability to the few days later when we left after Mom sadly passed away we were all treated with the utmost care, respect and compassion. Every single member of staff was kind and supportive with nothing too much trouble. My brother, my husband and I stayed with Mom for most of the four days she was there, taking advantage of the offer of their visitor's accommodation to take turns to get a couple of hours sleep. Everything was made as easy as possible for us to be with our mom. Sadly, she didn't have the privilege of accessing the wonderful, immaculate gardens or the facilities offered to other more able residents but what she did receive could not have been better.

Overall Experience

My father moved into Rashwood Care Home in November last year. He is settling in really well. The staff are lovely. They are very caring and take into consideration Dad's likes and dislikes. Any problems are dealt with quickly and efficiently. The home is always kept clean and his room is bright and

airy with a lovely view over the garden and countryside.
The activities that are laid on are many and varied- thanks to three staff members. Visitors are always made to feel welcome.
The manager and the management team are approachable and great to deal with, answering queries and solving problems.
Overall we are very happy with this lovely home and Dad's care. I would definitely recommend Rashwood Care Home.
