My dad has come on in leaps and bounds, since arriving at Darnall Grange Care Home nearly 6 weeks ago. The staff cannot do enough for him and they are really particular with his personal hygiene. The food is really good and in ample supply for the residents.

The staff at Darnall Grange Care Home are amazing. They have so much patience and understanding of the residents in their care. Nothing is ever too much trouble, and the nurses, carers and other staff are always there, willing to help and assist residents. We visit a resident on a regular basis and are always grateful for the care and empathy the staff constantly provide even when faced with the difficult personality of dementia. Thank you.

Mum has been in Darnall Grange for several years and is happy and content there. The Manager is always there to help with any concerns and is hands-on with the residents. A credit to Hermes. Only a certain type of person can do a carer's job and at Darnall Grange, they are excellent and should be acknowledged for what they do. Always friendly and attentive to mum's needs. The food is great (best roast potatoes!), and the kitchen staff and housekeeping are great. Mum's room is always clean. The Activities Coordinator is the perfect person for activities, just what the residents need! Certain staff most definitely need recognition for what they do, I know I can't name them but I am sure they know who I mean! Thank you for looking after mum.

I have been transferred to Darnell Grange from hospital after major operation with a catheter for bladder. Staff have been excellent and helpful, despite the fact they are busy, they are really kind and helpful to all residents. Cleaning is excellent.

Mum wasn't in long, maybe a month but we were all happy knowing that she had 24 hour care available with the staff there.

Thank you to all of the staff, the care for my dad in his short time here has been very comfortable and as good as it could be given the circumstances. All staff were extremely friendly and caring to all patients and visitors.

I know my dad is in safe hands at Darnall Grange. The carers are always friendly and caring with lots of patience. His room, bedding and clothes are always clean. He is given a variety of delicious food. We often join him for lunch in the care home. There are optional activities for him to join in if he feels like it. His health is closely monitored by all the staff. They contact me if there is a problem. I am always happy with the level of care he receives.

I have been satisfied with my husband's stay. The young carers have been very kind to him. He has eaten well with his special need to help him eat, they have fed him too when I was not there. I would like to say thank you for his medical care too. The NHS team have been very thoroughly doing a very demanding job. The food was very good, my husband loved the beef.
Very pleased with every aspect of the home. The rooms are basic but well-managed. The staff are excellent, excellent at entertaining patients.

Darnall Grange is a wonderful Care home. Our mum lived there for the last two years of her life. The whole team are incredibly caring and compassionate towards the residents. They are led by a lovely manager who genuinely cares about the residents and the impact on their families and loved...
Mum was so well cared for and treated with dignity. We always felt as though they really knew her which was a great comfort to us. The home was always spotless as was Mum's room. The food was delicious with daily choices cooked by a lovely catering team. The manager would help out with serving at busy times. We were always warmly welcomed as a family and communication was always excellent. It is a shame that names cannot be mentioned here as we have so much gratitude for so many lovely team members. We felt as though Mum became part of their family.
We would highly recommend Darnall Grange for anyone living with dementia.
Thank you to everyone involved.
Room very comfortable.
Meals on the whole enjoyable and plentiful.
Drinks of tea could be more plentiful.
Sta was for rehabilitation purposes and lasted for three weeks.
