From the moment we were shown round, my daughter and I knew there was no doubt this was the place where my husband should spend his last days. From the management right through to the carers, the care & support were outstanding. Unfortunately he was not able to fully appreciate the activities as he was mostly bed bound. It was a great comfort to us he was in safe hands for his last 3 months.
Thank you for taking a moment to leave us a review during this difficult time. It was an honour to care for your husband, and we are incredibly sorry for your loss. Please know that you and your daughter are always welcome at Avondale.
Was so impressed from just walking into reception, felt like a five star hotel, amazing welcome, amazing staff, top quality food & beverages. Residents seemed so happy, even danced to the amazing vocalist singing for everyone. Very impressed, I would love to come here when I'm older.

My sister and I would like to thank everyone at Avondale Care Home for looking after Mum so well for the last few weeks. All of the carers were kind, professional and caring with Mum. In particular, three ladies showed exceptional skill in dealing with a very upsetting situation. We both were greeted with kindness and reassurance. It was much appreciated so thank you all again, your efforts very much helped us through a difficult period.

What a wonderful place for Mum to live! The latest event (a Bollywood Extravaganza!) was exceptional and exciting! I haven't danced with my Mum for years, thank you!

My thanks go to all the staff and supporters at Avondale. They treat my mum with respect and dignity and help her to maintain as much of her independence as possible. Residents are encouraged to join in a wide range of activities, which are arranged to encourage all abilities. My experience is that families are welcomed and kept informed of treatment and care plans.
Thank you for your fantastic feedback. As a home, we pride ourselves on ensuring our residents have the opportunity to engage in any activities they wish, using this as an opportunity to encourage independence where possible, so I am glad to see you highlight these two aspects of life at Avondale.

Thank you so much for your review. I am delighted you enjoyed the afternoon tea. We look forward to welcoming you back again very soon.
My son and I had a lovely time at a music event at Avondale. We felt the home manager went over and above for everyone, resident, family and staff. It was such a well-arranged event. We had a wonderful time and it showcased just how much they care for their residents.

Thank you so much for taking the time to review Avondale. We had such a great day, and I am so pleased you enjoyed it too. We hope you can attend our next event.
Attended a spring party at Avondale and we had so much fun! Every time I visited Avondale, the manager, carers and nurses are all friendly and attentive. Thank you for taking such good care of our dear friend (resident at Avondale).

Thank you so much for taking the time to write a review of our care home. I am so pleased you enjoyed our Greek themed garden party. We had such a great time, which we would not have done had it not been so well attended. We really do appreciate the support of all our friends of Avondale, and we look forward to welcoming you back.
The manager has been incredibly supportive of my nan on end-of-life care, he has been caring, polite and professional. He is a great support and needs some fantastic recognition for his exceptional commitment.

Thank you for your very kind feedback. I seek to lead the team from the front and to set the best example for all staff to follow in how we support not only those in our care but also the families. Your words are much appreciated - thank you.
My mum has been at Avondale for several months, and I can’t fault the place. The staff treat Mum, and us, like family. Nothing is too much trouble. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, and we’ve been encouraged to take in any of Mum’s possessions that will help her feel at home. She has a large...
We, as a family, feel confident that Mum is being well looked after, and I would recommend Avondale without hesitation.
Thank you for your kind review and comments about all that we do to look after those in our care as well as their families. Your mum has settled in really well, and we are glad that personalising her room and the dining experience and choices have made a difference.
I came to visit a family friend and found all of the staff to be very friendly and helpful. A very clean and comfortable environment. The chocolate brownie was amazing.

Hello, my name is Cristian, and I am the Home Manager at Avondale.
I am a highly motivated and compassionate professional with over 9 years of experience in the healthcare sector. I have dedicated my career to enhancing the quality of life for our residents and ensuring the smooth operation of care facilities. My expertise lies in managing day-to-day operations, leading diverse teams, and implementing best practices to provide exceptional care and support to the residents and their families. I am known to be passionate about continuous improvement and lifelong learning. In 2014, I started working as a healthcare assistant whilst waiting for my nursing registration. I advanced through various roles within the company, demonstrating consistent dedication and acquiring new skills at each level.
By integrating my experience, qualifications, and personal dedication, I aim to ensure that every resident receives the highest standard of care and enjoys a safe, supportive, and enriching living environment at Woodland Manor Care Home.
