Overdene House Care Home

Although the property is a little "Tired" in appearance, The staff at Overdene House make up for this in every possible way. They are very caring towards their residents (and visitors). They will go out of their way to help in any way they can. I couldn't have wished for a better home for my mother to be taken care of. At the end of the day, it's about the care that the staff give and I give them all the credit they deserve. If anybody is looking for the ideal home in this area, I would recommend Overdene House as the home of choice.

My husband was not here long but we were made to feel so cared for. The manager and staff are so kind.

I enjoy my respite at Overdene. I have stayed a number of times and each time I am made welcome by the staff and greeted as a friend. The two different rooms I have stayed in were clean and comfortable, as is the lounge and dining room. I enjoy my choices of food and always plenty of it. I like my porridge. I take part in activities and like my outings. The staff always help me when I get confused and are very patient. I look forward to my respite at Overdene.

Very good. Will return - excellent.

It is to be hoped your other homes operate to a similar standard.

The management and staff were brilliant the care and communication from manager to the kitchen was great nothing was to much trouble and the empathy and care were superb. The manager knew the answers to all our queries and texted immediately to all our request and dad loved it thanks Overdene team.

During my mothers-in-law's stay, I was most impressed by witnessing staff interaction with the residents as they showed great compassion, patience and care to all. The food was of a good standard with personal preferences catered for. Entertainment and interests were a great source of pleasure. It was of great comfort to us, her family, to know she was safe and cared for.

I cannot thank everyone enough for all the care and support they have given my mother and all the family during these difficult times.

The staff were great they could not do enough to help you. The place was always clean, there was always a nurse there or somebody to answer your questions. I would recommend it to anybody.

General care of activities needs to be more for everybody. People need to become informed about choices.

High standard of care given to my mother. She has her favourites but all the staff are hard working. They all work like a team, which is a credit to them all. Mum often tells me how highly she thinks of them all. In her words, "my girls". Thanks for her excellent care.

My wife was a resident at the care home for 22 yrs on arriving she was in a very poor condition. Over the years with dedication and care the staff, past and present, she was nursed to a standard where she was able to lead a comfortable lifestyle. Considering her disability with the onset of problems in later years the staff gave her a great quality of care to the end.

I look forward to visiting my Mum every week, I always find her happy, clean and well cared for. The staff are so happy and friendly.

I am quite happy living here. I like all the staff that I know. My room is kept clean and my meals are nice.

The staff are very caring and helpful staffing ratio is very poor but they do their best.

The home has improved in lots of ways. It looks bright and cheerful and the staff are always helpful and kind.

Overall standard of Overdene House, in my opinion, is excellent. Keep up the good work.

We will always be grateful for the care dad received when he needed it most.

Today sitting with him, he has talked about his experience and how he enjoyed it.

The whole ambience of Overdene is fresh, light and airy, with friendly care staff going about their duties. The rooms are pleasant and quiet areas where one can relax and maybe have forty winks, should they feel the need to. All in all, we would say that anyone joining Overdene House is most certainly getting value for money.
