My stay in Sycamore Grove on all occasions has been one of pleasure. They were very caring, staff who work hard to make my stay so enjoyable. A program to encourage me to help getting to know other residents and good for wellbeing. Garden friendly for disabled, I like being outdoors. A doctor from local surgery calls in so helpful! In conclusion, my stay was like being in a large family home. I shall be going again for respite in the future.
Thank you for your wonderful review, it is always a pleasure to have you stay with us and we look forward to seeing you again in the future.

We cannot thank everyone at Sycamore Grove Care Home enough for everything they have done to help our nan settle in.
This has been such a difficult and emotional time for our whole family, but the care, kindness and support we have received from everyone has meant more to us than we can put into words. They have supported us in every way possible, always taking the time to listen, reassure us and make us feel that our nan is truly cared for.
Whenever we visit, we are made to feel so welcome, and it is such a comfort to know that she is surrounded by such caring and compassionate people.
A huge thank you to the whole team at Sycamore Grove for everything you do. We genuinely appreciate each and every one of you and couldn't be more grateful.
We would highly recommend Sycamore Grove Care Home to anyone looking for a warm, caring and supportive home for their loved one. We feel very lucky to have found such a wonderful team to look after our nan.

Purpose of visit & pre-arranged. Rehab after hip replacement with physio. No physio available. Emma had never received my requests or any information. I was told there was no rehab available. Food was disgusting, my dietary details were ignored. Certainly nothing to help healing. Room was nice. Staff mainly caring & skilled. Had to pay in advance - but a total waste of money. Legal opinion being sought.

Thanks for taking the time to leave your review. We're sorry your experience with Sycamore Grove Care Home didn't meet your expectations. We're not aware you raised concerns around the food during your stay, the home will always support with alternative options. We understand the General Manager was on leave during your time with us, however, other members of the team would be happy to support you right away if they were aware of any issues. The team have shared that, prior to admission, they explained that the home is not a rehabilitation service and that we do not have a physiotherapist on site, although we can support you in accessing these services externally. We're sorry if there has been any misunderstanding. If there's anything else you'd like to share, reach out to the Manager of the home or our team at feedback@barchester.com.

The home is always clean, welcoming, and calm, with a lovely atmosphere that makes it feel more like a community than a facility. My nan is always encouraged to join in with the activities, which she absolutely loves, and it's been amazing to see her so happy, engaged, and well looked after.
Communication with the family is great too - we're always kept informed, and the team are easy to talk to and incredibly supportive.
I'm truly grateful for the outstanding care they provide. Knowing my nan is safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for.
Thank you so very much for your lovely review which I will share with the team. We do honestly feel truly honoured to support you all at this time and becoming a member of your family.

Sycamore Grove Care Home offers outstanding care, their staff members are all so caring and professional, attentive to the needs of their residents and so helpful and accommodating, always available to answer any questions we have.

Mum has recently moved into Sycamore Grove Care Home following a couple of stays in respite care. Mum has stayed at Sycamore Grove before and her experience has been very good. The atmosphere is inclusive, caring and kind with staff available to assist or entertain as needed. There is a programme of activities which is quite varied and plenty of spaces for quiet times if required. From my point of view Sycamore Grove gives me peace of mind that mum is being well cared for and she is safe. Since arriving the staff have made a real effort to improve her health and to ensure she is well looked after. I am very happy that mum is staying at Sycamore Grove long term.
We would like to thank you so much for your kind words which I will ensure is passed onto the team. We love being able to look after your mum and look forward to many happy times ahead with you all.

I have worked in the care industry for over 30 years, including managing a domiciliary home care business in the past. I love all aspects of care, especially caring for the elderly I started working for Barchester in 2021 and I love working for Barchester as it is an incredibly caring and empathetic business.
Due to my passion for care, I will use my skills, knowledge and experience and I will manage and lead my team in delivering outstanding care to our residents.
Daily I take home with me all the smiles, the hugs, the touches of the hands, the happiness in their eyes, the genuine joy of residents and knowledge I did everything I could to make their lives better. It is the greatest reward.
I do practice an Open door policy for our residents, relatives and staff as they are at the heart of what I do.

My career in hospitality and catering started in 1990. I trained in Jülich, Germany and started my career In Zurich and worked in many 4* and 5* Hotels in my career including Claridge’s (London), and Hotel Alpina (Klosters, Switzerland) to name a few, I then went on to work as a head chef in Switzerland. I am now very settled and happy in the UK, spending the last 12 years working for the 5* Landmark hotel in Marylebone, fulfilling many roles starting as Sous Chef and working my way up to an Executive Sous chef role.
I started working as a chef in the care sector in 2023. I chose to join Barchester as their standards and expectations are so high. I believe a good chef is an artist and should be able to create delicious menus from the local, seasonal produce on offer.
We have a strong passionate team here at Sycamore Grove and we are looking forward to welcoming our residents to their new homes.

I joined Sycamore Grove as Maintenance Manager in January 2023. Maintenance is paramount when it comes to our residents, relatives and colleagues, and my role is to keep the home environment up to the highest standards possible, ultimately creating a safe and warm place for our residents to live and my colleagues to work.
I also manage and deal with contractors, keeping records up-to-date for our audits. As part of my role, I am also responsible for maintaining the home's extensive grounds. Prior to joining the team at Sycamore Grove, I worked as a facilities manager for Tesco.
I look forward to meeting you all and helping with any maintenance needs in the home.

I first worked in the care sector in 2016. I have since gained a wealth of experience in dedicated dementia and residential activities, where I was an Activities Coordinator.
The largest and best part of my role was to ensure my residents were engaged in meaningful activities on a daily basis. I do this by taking into account their life history, their interests, likes and dislikes in order to promote their well-being currently and for the future. Liaising with family, friends and members of the community is also part of my role and it offers continuity to the lives of our residents. I love giving people a purpose and enabling our residents to do as much as possible of the things they love to do.
I cannot wait to welcome our residents into their wonderful new homes and help to bring smiles, joy and laughter to each day.

My name is Derrick, and I am a Senior Care Assistant here at Sycamore Grove. I feel empowered and supported to be successful in my care career. I have extensive experience supporting residents in care homes, ensuring their wellbeing, dignity and independence. My role involves person-centred care planning, supervising and maintaining close communication with families and healthcare professionals. Before specialising in healthcare, I gained valuable experience across a range of sectors, including security, education, finance and sales. This diverse background has strengthened my ability to communicate effectively, adapt quickly and remain calm under pressure. I take pride in being compassionate, approachable and reliable, always striving to provide the highest standard of care and support to those I work with.
