Mum was admitted to the Old Vicarage in the last weeks of her long life and was given care and attention when she needed it. She was very weak on arrival and sadly passed away within a week or so. Nonetheless, I felt the staff we always lovely. They were welcoming and it was always easy find someone who knew mum's condition and what was going on with her. My interaction with the home was quite short but I feel the people that work there do genuinely care and do their best to keep the residents happy and well.
It was a privilege to care for your mum during her final days, and I'm really pleased that you felt welcomed and supported throughout such a difficult time. Although she was only with us for a short while, we wanted to make sure...

The care and facilities have reduced recently, the residents have to wait when requiring help. The home does provide entertainment on a regular basis.

When arriving at the home I was greeted from the member of staff who came to the door with a smile and warmth and was asked if they could be of any help after she had introduced herself to me. All the staff were friendly, the residents I saw appeared happy and well looked after. The home was decorated ready for Christmas and my friend was excited and looking forward to celebrating Christmas with her family at the home. She was also enjoying the Christmas activities which were very varied.

I was my mum's sole carer for a long time, so handing over her care to a full-time service was absolutely heartbreaking. However, the team have made this transition so much easier than I ever thought possible. They have taken away so much stress and worry, and I have complete confidence that my mum is safe, supported, and truly cared for.
We know how incredibly difficult it is to entrust the care of a loved one to others, especially after being their sole carer for so long. Were really honoured that...

My wife has been in residence in The Old Vicarage nursing home for about 18 months. She quickly settled in. She suffers with dementia and has no conversation. She does 'talk' a lot but it is not possible to understand what she is trying to say - but she does react very well to all the staff. I cannot praise them enough for all the care they show her. She has always been interested in singing and joined choirs wherever we have lived. She really enjoys the many singing activities which the home provides.
Caring for residents living with dementia is at the heart of what we do, and it means a great deal...

My elderly mother in law is treated with respect and care. The staff are really good with her and give her agency to make decisions. She is comfortable and generally contented. The support we have as relatives from medical staff, particularly nursing staff is excellent. The carers are lovely.
