My mother has received superb care and dignity whilst living at Limewood Care Home, Stafford. I and my family are delighted she has remained here for the past eight years and, now as she approaches her 90th year, remains adored by all the staff.

The home has an extremely homely and warm feel which is upheld and demonstrated by all staff members I had the pleasure to meet. Communication is excellent and the care afforded to both my dad and myself was excellent. The staff genuinely care about the residents and nothing is too much trouble for any of them. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this home.

My mom has been a resident at Limewood for three years and during this time has been cared for really well. The staff are very hardworking and caring. The support they have given to us as a family has been very much appreciated especially during difficult times.

My mother has been in Limewood for almost two years now. The care she receives is outstanding. Carers are friendly, chatty and always include Mom in conversations. It has been difficult for everyone with Covid restrictions; however, they have tried to keep residents safe with only caregivers visiting on occasion. Communication between nurses and carers could be better, not sure if the information is shared on a daily basis. Manager of the home is very elusive; this is an area for improvement I feel, but overall, excellent care home and facilities.

My father was in care here for two years, I cannot fault the staff, he had excellent care, the staff are genuine and compassionate with their residents, we were kept well informed about any concerns they had with my father's welfare, my father in return felt comfortable and had a good relationship with the staff even though he could be quite challenging at times. The food was excellent which my father was very fond of, the activities and facilities were varied and had excellent interaction and involvement of one kind or another to suit individual needs. It is very clean light and airy and has a good homely presence with comfortable surroundings. We cannot thank them enough for their excellent care in difficult times, we would fully recommend Limewood to anybody to have a loved one in need of a trustworthy care home.

My Mum moved to Limewood in March 2016, I was immediately impressed and continue to be impressed with the care and patience shown to all residents in what is often a very challenging environment.
The care staff often work long days which is extremely tiring but continue to display an air of professionalism throughout each shift. Thank you for all you do for my lovely Mum, I leave her after each visit knowing that she is as safe as she can be.
