Corbrook Park Nursing Home

There is a friendly and welcoming atmosphere as soon as you enter Corbrook Park Nursing Home. My mum has received excellent care and support from all members of staff, many of whom go above and beyond to ensure that the residents are comfortable and happy, and the relatives are involved and listened to.

Firstly, I found the staff to be pleasant and they responded to any issues I raised. My brother was there for a weeks respite care and what I expect is that, staff see issues and rectify them without my intervention, e.g. every day a cake was provided to all residents in the afternoon with a drink. My brother can't swallow cake and no one offered an alternative until I requested. Television in a part of the room where he could not see it - bedbound. On day 2, no morning care, except a breakfast, until I arrived at 2.30pm. What is missing is effective management presence. Never saw a site manager even when I asked to do so. More examples could be given with additional space.

Why has the standard dropped? Sometimes meals and cups of tea are not hot enough.

Corbrook is set in a beautiful quiet location where residents can be outside when the weather allows, and in the summer there is outdoor entertainment which our mother enjoyed as well as excursions for those who are able.

Sadly Mum passed away after only ten days at Corbrook Court. I was telephoned when Mum's condition deteriorated and Mum was comforted and reassured that I was on my way. The staff were so kind to us at this difficult time and made sure we were well looked after into the early hours of the morning.

This nursing home is a lovely place to be a resident. The rooms are lovely. The food is good and the staff pleasant, efficient and attentive. My father enjoyed his time there for respite care after a stay in hospital. It is a pleasant location to visit.

The staff at Corbrook have been wonderful with Mum who has had a 3-week stay for respite after a fall. Mum had a lovely room and took part in activities during the day. Mum's health improved during the stay. I cannot praise the team at Corbrook Park enough thanks so much for the way you have cared for Mum, she can't wait to come back!

I am making my comment and observations based on my wife's first 6 weeks of care. Corbrook is an old but entirely well-appointed nursing home. It is warm at all times and very comfortable. The staff are extremely friendly and accommodate patient needs and wishes in a very effective manner. Nursing and care needs seem to be well catered for. Social needs in the form of daily activities are also well established again in a very friendly way. Everyone speaks to you with an added smile and it feels like a family environment. The home has a good reputation in the local area.

My mother has been a resident at Corbrook for about 12 months now. From the very beginning, she has been beautifully looked after and her family made very welcome. We feel the residents are made to feel like a family who are well cared for and to feel safe. They have a wide range of stimulating activities daily. The grounds are well used weather permitting which lifts their mental well-being. The staff are exceptionally cheerful and caring and often go the extra mile to help a resident.

The park is in a lovely setting and the grounds and communal areas are kept to a very high standard.

The room designated to my mother was light and airy with lovely views over the exceptionally well-kept gardens. She found moving to a care home very difficult having been independent all her life. She was 93. The nursing staff, carers and ancillary staff were always pleasant and respectful of her needs and showed a great deal of compassion. They went out of their way to make her comfortable and welcome. The facilities at Corbrook are excellent. When Mum died this month, I was very impressed with how the circumstances were handled, and the staff were so kind to me and my brother. I would recommend Corbrook Park to anyone looking for a nursing home for a relative.

My husband was only at Corbrook Park for 10 days before he sadly died but in that time both the manager in charge and his staff were nothing but kind, compassionate and caring.

Just collected Mum from Corbrook Park. She stayed for three nights respite care. She told me that the staff were all very caring and could not do enough for her. She had a lovely room with en-suite, which Mum was worried about because she is 95 and can't get to the W.C. quickly. When we arrived the staff made such a fuss of Mum, which I appreciated because Mum was a little bit nervous. When I collected her there was a choir visiting singing Christmas carols which was great and all the residents were singing. She will be back in May and September to give us a break. Thanks.

Beautiful house set in lovely gardens for all to enjoy. Mum spent the last few months of her life in your care and as a family, we were very happy with all that you provided. All the staff members we came into contact with not only gave Mum good care they also included us as a family. Everyone did their best to make Mum's life comfortable and happy as possible for her. Your relationship with the doctors was excellent and gave us peace of mind to know that all was being monitored with her health issues. The nurses were very professional, kind and caring, keeping us up to date, discussing changes that were needed and responding to our requests. One regret is that Mum didn't come to you sooner. Many Thanks.

Whilst Uncle was at Corbrook Park, he was well looked after as well as being made welcome when visiting.

Corbrook Park cared for our father after his discharge from the hospital. The care home was first class and he was very well looked after.

The care provided for my wife was excellent. The staff and carers are lovely, and couldn't be bettered. Thank you.

The staff are extremely patient and caring, in my parent's condition and general. The situation has improved greatly since they came here.

My husband has been at Corbrook Park for three weeks to recover from a gruelling seven weeks in the hospital recovering from sepsis. He says that it has been like a holiday after the hospital. He feels rested and recovered thanks to the staff, time to move on now for some intensive physio to get back on his feet. Many thanks to all concerned at Corbrook.

My dad was a resident in Corbrook Park Care Home for eight days. During this time, we have been extremely impressed with the care and attention he received. Not only were all the staff extremely friendly and responsive to my dad's needs but they also showed him respect and interest in his past career/lifetime activities etc. We would have no hesitation in recommending Corbrook Park to anyone else who needed convalescent or permanent nursing care.
