Silversprings was by far the most friendly and welcoming home I visited with my dad. This was his first stay for respite and we were all anxious. He had a great stay and I could enjoy my holiday because I knew he was safe and well looked after. It was like home from home.

I stayed with you for 1 weeks respite whilst my daughter was on holiday. I loved my stay and made lots of new friends. The food was great and my family had some meals with me at the beginning and at the end of my stay. I can't praise the staff highly enough and can't wait to come and stay again.

Everything was arranged quickly and professionally. Within 5 minutes of my line chat, I received a telephone call confirming an appointment to view the home. Assessment arranged for 9am the following Monday and my wife was settled in by about 5pm. All the staff are lovely and very keen to help and chat. Food is excellent too.
Very satisfied with the care and support from all members of staff at this home. The accommodation and food are excellent.

We found staff and management very approachable. My mother-in-law was happy and contented given that she wasn't well on her arrival.

My mother and I come to see my mother's friend. They have been friends for 60+ years. The staff cannot be too helpful and are a delight nothing is too much for them. I cannot comment on the management or the value for money or activities we only come to the facility once a week. The facility is bright, airy and clean and there isn't a nasty odour which can occur. I would like to think that should I ever need to come into here in the far distant future there would be room for me.
I would not want my wife to be in any other care home. Silversprings is airy and spacious with staff who work very hard to look after my wife.

I was very impressed from the moment I stepped into the reception area, straight away I was struck by a lovely atmosphere, everything and everyone looked so bright and cheerful. All the staff were so welcoming and seemed so caring. I wouldn't want my mum to stay anywhere I wouldn't want to stay myself, so I will definitely be booking my place there in a few years.
Work hard in looking after you 100%.

Staff would share an activity as a 'one to one' for example doing a jigsaw.

Our mum went into Silversprings care home in February this year. We have nothing but praise for the way they are caring for her, she is happy now and safe. She has the onset of Alzheimer's so her being in her home with carers, as before, was not an option. Now we have no concerns as she is well cared for 24/7 and we feel so welcome by all the staff when we visit her there. Thank you Silversprings.

I booked in for a 4-week stay after prolonged period in hospital. This was to aid recovery and gain some fitness and weight. Worked well; room comfortable, nursing care good, food excellent, gardens good for walking exercise. Gained 1lb per week in weight.

I first qualified as a nurse back in 1987 and completed further training in 1992. I then worked in both health and social care, working with adults with learning disabilities, and mental health needs, and also as a manager of two other care homes in Suffolk. I joined Silversprings in 2020 after seeing from the Care UK website how beautiful the home is.
I believe it’s important for the home manager to be approachable, caring, and open with both their team, the families, and also and most importantly the residents that live in the home.
My favourite part of my job is knowing that no one day is the same. I love spending time with the residents and also seeing how the staff engage with them, hearing their stories from their youth and their words of wisdom to the younger generation.
Outside of work spending time with my family is my big love, I have three grown-up children, and a beautiful granddaughter who stays regularly. I also enjoy walking my Labrador, Max, in the countryside around my home. A glass of rosé wine is my favourite tipple after a long day.
