When my brother and I first visited Watermead Rose in April 2025 on our search for a suitable care home for our elderly mother who has extremely limited mobility, we were both impressed by the vibe, the cleanliness, the quality and layout of the bedrooms and social areas, and, in particular, the...
This continues to be the case over the eight months since our mother became a resident.
The staff are looking after her health and well-being in exemplary caring and patient fashion. We specifically wanted a care home with nursing provision, and the nursing team are proactive and keep us updated on her needs and the steps taken to meet them, including arranging visits from GPs, chiropodists and appointments at the on-site hairdressing salon. The food always looks delicious and there is a busy activities schedule.
A warm and very sincere thank you for your very detailed review of Watermead Rose. It is so heartwarming to read it and take in every element. Thank you for sharing your genuine feelings about the exemplary care and wellbeing of your dear Mother by our team of carers and nurses, it will mean so much to them.
Beautiful home, more like a hotel. Came to see my wife's aunty who is currently a resident at Watermead Rose. Very friendly staff who can't do enough for you. Very clean and welcoming with plenty to do, from a cinema to a cafe, would highly recommend.

Two improvements: 1) Staff sometimes need reminding of care duties, 2) Premises are lacking air conditioning in rooms, some of which can get very hot in summer.

Brought both my parents in for a 2 week respite following my father's fall, nothing was too much trouble to look after them, and what a difference it made after a good rest and good food. Hope they decide to stay.

Thank you for kindly writing a review about your parents stay with us here at Watermead Rose. It was wonderful to see them grow in confidence, enjoy sociable meal times with other residents and join a variety of activities. It was a pleasure to have them stay with us and we look forward to welcoming them back when the time is right.
I had a three-week short break, during which time I was welcomed and supported by everyone. Unfortunately, some of my underwear went missing when it went for laundry, but it meant I could have some new items, so a blessing in disguise. I would stay at Watermead again.

Although my mum was only with you for 5 weeks. The care and attention given to her was outstanding. Every effort was made to include her in the activities and make her comfortable in her final days. We would definitely recommend Watermead Rose Nursing Home to anyone who was interested.

My mum is so well looked after here - her needs are met with patience and compassion, and she is always encouraged to join in and feel part of the home's community. The staff not only provide excellent personal care, but they also take the time to really get to know her, which makes such a difference.
The home itself is welcoming, clean, and has a lovely family feel. The meals are thoughtful and nutritious, and the activities are engaging and tailored to different abilities and interests. Most importantly, we have complete peace of mind knowing that mum is safe, happy, and valued.
Thank you to everyone at Watermead Rose for the outstanding care and support you give - it means the world to us.
