Warde Aldam Nursing Home

My grandad spent his last days at Walde Aldam and all I can say is that the staff and management were fantastic, they never complained and was so helpful and understanding. Especially as we are a large family, we had open visiting 24 hours a day and never once was made to feel in the way, all the staff were extremely compassionate.

We as a family have been full of praise for the home I personally would have no hesitation in recommending the care home. Many thanks.

My father spent the last week of his life in Warde Aldam Nursing Home. The management, carers and nursing staff were absolutely brilliant and help myself and all our family through a very difficult time. The home itself is like a 5-star hotel.

Any concerns we have had about Dad have been quickly dealt with by the management who are always very approachable and compassionate. As a family we are all very grateful for the peace of mind this has given us at a very difficult time, knowing that Dad is in very safe hands. Activities are laid on at regular intervals, such as karaoke, and dancing. There is an excellent garden and outdoor provision for residents and their families to use. The home is clean and well maintained. The food is home cooked and plentiful.

Well done everyone and a big thank you.

The whole of the team at the home have consistently demonstrated the utmost care, respect, dignity and love for my Mum who, sadly, passed away having spent the last 5 months in the home. The room was large, bright, cheerful and well appointed, whilst cleanliness was great. Food was plentiful and nutritional and met my Mum's specific needs, whilst drinks were always being brought to her. But of most importance was the care and my Mum was checked every hour to ensure her well-being and safety, both day and night.

She is now happy to be home again.

I am very thankful my grandma is happy and well cared for.

The home is clean and smart inside and out. The staff are very friendly and caring to both residents and visitors. Both me and my dad have been made to feel very welcome.

My dad seems happier in Warde Aldam Christian Nursing Home than he has been for years - that makes me think that the home is fantastic.

These two things alone are a fantastic result. The nurses and carers are all very interactive with mum and me. I look forward to seeing and spending time with my mum now and I couldn't say that six weeks ago. Very happy and relieved.

My husband was in the care home for only a short time but I was very happy with the care he received. The care staff were excellent and very supportive to me. His room was lovely looking onto the garden and I was made to feel like nothing was too much trouble.

Very satisfied with my husband's care. I'm more relaxed at home knowing my husband is being looked after.

My mum was a resident at Warde Aldam Christian Nursing Home for 18months, she had vascular dementia, the care staff are absolutely fabulous, nothing was to much trouble, we spent many hours visiting mum and we were always made welcome, the nursing staff were excellent, mum passed away on the 5th of January this year, in her final hours she was made very comfortable, we stayed for 2 nights, where we met the night staff that you never really get to see, and they were just as nice as the day staff, although you don't want your loved ones to go into care or nursing home I can only say from my own experience that Warde Aldam is wonderful to thank you for looking after my mum

5 stars to the home. Excellent!!

I moved my husband into Warde Aldam from Stockingate 3 weeks ago, I only wish he had been there a year ago. He would be awake all night and sleep most of the day, at Warde Aldam, they got him a bed that rises up; and now he sleeps all night and is awake when I visit every day. It is more expensive but worth every penny.

My mother was welcomed as a resident on 24th November to Warde Aldam. As soon as we pulled up outside, a young member of staff (who it seems is the activities coordinator) gave us all the warmest of greetings, but particularly my mother who was addressed by name. Other staff couldn't have been more friendly and understanding. One, in particular, listened very carefully to the care needs of my mother and made her room homely and is really on the ball. When we visited two days later we were given a warm welcome and nothing was too much trouble.

Any question regarding a resident is answered truthfully and discreetly, and you are made aware of any problem encountered very quickly. I cannot praise the staff enough for all the help they afford us when we visit and believe me this doesn't happen in all care homes !!

They are always courteous, helpful and make visitors feel welcome at any times. They make life fun and enjoyable as much as possible for all the residents in their care. Have already recommended this care home on numerous occasions.

My husband has been in the care of Warde Aldam for about 2 years. The carers are very good. The overall standard of the home is good mostly. But I would like more stimulation to take place there isn't enough. My husband likes to go for a walk in the air, but I don't think there is enough staff to take him when I am not there. Need to make this happen.

I have not been to a review yet as my husband has only been there since January but so far everything is going well and we are well pleased with the care my husband receives.
