Overall Experience
Please DO ensure the Clavadel team has familiarised itself with any pre-existing conditions you have which will affect your recovery. I assumed they had.
Please DO ascertain what your allocated room will be like. Mine was noisy and lacked privacy. I was unlucky?

Please DO rely on positive feedback regarding Clavadel's support team being backed up by really GENUINE praise. I have nothing but praise for their care...

Overall Experience
My (86 year old) father has just spent 3 weeks at The Clavadel and described it as "the best care and support I have ever had anywhere".
He was treated with great kindness and dignity and all of his needs were fulfilled completely. The work the physios did with him has made a huge difference in his rehabilitation (following surgery for a broken femur) and lived up to all our expectations before his stay.
The team of caregivers and nurses who looked after him were outstanding and both kind and warm in all their dealings with him morning, noon and night.

I/he would highly recommend The Clavadel and only wish there were more of them around the country..

Review from E B (Resident / Service User) published on 11 December 2023 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
I booked into the Clavadel for post-operative care and physiotherapy following a knee replacement in November 2023. I had been there in 2019 for my first knee replacement and everything lived up to my expectations. The physiotherapy and nursing care was exemplary in every way and the staff throughout were caring and very helpful. It was worth every penny! A perfect place for what I needed and hopefully there will be more Clavadels throughout the country.

Review from Lulu B (Resident / Service User) published on 29 August 2022 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
I spent two weeks at the Claverdel having broken my femur being knocked off my bicycle in London. I got focused intensive physio and fantastic 24/7 care from a fabulous team of carers, nurses and physios. Understandably, the NHS needed to discharge me as soon as they could and the Claverdel was the perfect solution to my concerns of being able to cope when still practically immobile. It is one of the best decisions and investments that I have ever made. My progress has been amazing and I am still going back for continued hydrotherapy which is such a great addition to normal physiotherapy.
