The staff are excellent. Wonderful care at all times. There are activities to keep active both mentally and physically. Meals are excellent but could be served hotter. Would recommend it to other people. Respect and dignity at all times.

My Mam recently went to Garden Hill following a terminal cancer diagnosis. The support, care, kindness and compassion we received from all of the staff there was truly outstanding. My Mam was treated exceptionally by them throughout her stay and passed away with dignity. I truly believe we could not have gotten through the last two weeks without them and will always be grateful and in awe of the care, she received while in their care. They made a devastating time so much easier to cope with - thank you.
Good range of activities to keep residents involved.
Good choice of well-cooked meals.

Garden Hill provides a safe, secure and very caring home for my parents which in turn gives me peace of mind. Staff are professional and strive to provide a comfortable home whilst the activities coordinator provides a varied timetable of events throughout the week. Thank you everyone!

The staff are very competent, approachable and give a high priority to maintaining the dignity of the residents.
Our only recommendation would be to increase their staffing levels.

My father has recently had a week's respite care in Garden Hill Car Home. The care he had was exemplary. The staff were all very professional in their care of him. But also very friendly. They all came across as caring and it felt that the care was as if they were looking after their own parent....
The room he had was bright and airy, with plenty of space for him to walk around with his walker. The meals were so good he was ringing me on a daily basis with an update on all the beautiful meals. I could not believe it because I was sure that there would be at least a couple of complaints about the food, given he is such a fussy eater. There were none, so well done the kitchen staff.
I would certainly recommend this home to anyone, without hesitation. Well done Garden Hill.

My parents have been here for 2 and a half years. Fantastic care, love and kindness. I work for the NHS, so I know what standards should be. I have high standards and they are always met by all staff here from admin, nursing, management, hygiene services and catering team. Faultless, if I have any questions they are answered, any worries they are promptly assessed. My parents are very lucky.

When we collected her after her week's stay she spoke so highly of all the staff and had obviously been very well looked after, and also very well fed!

My husband has been in Garden Hill Care Home for almost a year now and during this time I have seen the care that the staff have given him as his condition (dementia) has deteriorated, They give him respect in spite of his negative attitude towards them. I am so impressed with the management and the improvements are excellent. My friends on visits have been impressed by the atmosphere and care and attention too.

My mother came to Garden Hill in September 2015 as end of life and down to the care and attention she gets from the staff at Garden Hill she still remains here. I am very happy with the care she receives and would recommend the care home to anyone.
