I found the staff amazing the care my husband received was the best. His needs and wellbeing until he died were just the best I could have hoped for. I can't thank them enough. I went to visit the staff and completed the form, I just had to tell you what a great place it is.

Sadly my Dad was only at Wheatfield Court for two days before he passed away. However the kindness and compassion shown by the team here was fantastic. Nothing was too much trouble and their efforts to make my Dad as comfortable and dignified as possible were excellent.
The cleanliness is excellent as are the facilities.
The way they are with their regular residents is lovely, they have fun, show such care and compassion and are everything you could ask for.
These people are carers in the true sense of the word.

I am the Deputy Manager of a care home with a background as a Registered Nurse, and I am passionate about delivering high-quality, person-centred care.
I believe that becoming a Veteran Friendly Care Home will bring significant benefits to our residents, their families, our Colleagues, and Akari Care as a whole. By recognising and celebrating veterans' experiences, we can provide more personalised care, strengthen relationships, enhance staff awareness, and create a culture that honours service while improving the wellbeing and quality of life of those who have served.
