They moved quickly to match our timelines at the start of the engagement, then without exception provided a level of care that made Mum feel valued, as relaxed as possible and at ease in what were very difficult circumstances for her.
My family and I would happily recommend the team at Verwood Care Home to anyone else needing care for their loved ones in their final chapter!

My mother has lived at Verwood House, now, since February 2024, and she loves it there. The staff are wonderful and very helpful, and the wellbeing coach does an amazing job of organising entertainment events that all the residents enjoy. I really can't fault the home or the staff in any way, and they always make me feel more than welcome when I travel from France, where I live, to visit Mum. I would recommend Verwood House wholeheartedly to anyone who has an elderly relative needing a care home.
Thank you kindly for spending the time to write us your lovely review and all the way from France! Your Mum is a wonderful lady and she is much loved by us all and her friends. It is our pleasure to be able to care for her and to welcome you when you visit. Best wishes and much love from us all at Verwood House.

Verwood House is airy and bright with a beautiful view to enjoy, making one feel at one with nature. The chefs are very accommodating, ensuring we have plenty of food and drink. I am grateful for helping me recover.

My father was a resident from October to April. He received wonderful care for the duration and despite experiencing the loss of his wife (67 years of marriage) he was looked after so well. The staff were kind, loving and cared for him dearly. He in turn responded positively and although he had progressive dementia he was happy for the short time he was a resident and often mentioned this to us when we visited him. I am so pleased we made the decision to entrust Verwood House to look after him and would highly recommend them to anyone considering this home for their relative.
Thank you for taking the time to write your kind review. All of the staff at Verwood House work incredibly hard and they will be very proud to hear this. I know your Dad was very highly thought of and much loved by us all. He is very missed. Best wishes from the home manager, and all the staff.

After a very long stay in hospital, we were devastated that Dad had to give up his independence and home to come into the care system. We, however, have had a fantastic experience right from the start here with the Verwood House. Dad certainly hasn’t lost his independence and was welcomed with open arms and every concern we had disappeared! Every member right from the start, the wonderful care manager, the sales team, care givers, entertainment team, maintenance, chefs, receptionists and cleaners are fantastic, not only do they look after Dad fabulously with nothing being too much trouble, they also care for us his family! We consider Verwood House and all their many staff our family and have been made to feel exactly the same, we can't recommend them highly enough.

We're very happy with Verwood and the way that they are looking after our dad. He has settled very quickly, is eating well and the staff are all lovely with him. He has advanced dementia so probably not the easiest to care for, but he seems to be really well looked after and content.
