Very happy with the level of care, assistants are fantastic, they work extremely hard as staff are quite often very low.

I have been to so many care and residential homes and I can surely say I find the service here value for money but there is room for improvement. Carers are the main caregivers and I would expect them to be paid accordingly. There can be room for improvising especially in one resident involvement.

My friend has settled into her new home very quickly and is very happy there now with many fellow residents to spend time with. A much better environment than living by herself. I find the staff are very friendly, professional and very attentive. I join in with a few activities when visiting and enjoy them greatly as do the residents. The home is modern, clean and light with quiet areas as well as communal rooms which is great for guests who visit that may prefer a quiet time with residents, relatives and friends.
Excellent care. Staff very supportive.

The staff have been very supportive and informative during the whole time my relative has been in their care. They have been particularly patient with the time taken to obtain "deputy" from the court of protection.

Staff have also ensured she is well dressed; her nails are done regularly. All necessary medical reviews/chiropody/dietitian intervention have been completed efficiently. In addition, her birthday celebrations were very enjoyable; staff at all timer are friendly and approachable.
My dad has been at the home for nearly a year. To date, we have been happy with the service and the level of care he is receiving. A handful of staff in particular, have been amazing.

Since my mother has been in this care centre she has been provided with all the care necessary. The staff are all very helpful and understanding any issue when it arises is dealt with. The accommodation provided is excellent.

Generally staff are brilliant in what they do. However staff shortage effects the care that my mother receives. Especially on the weekends, it's terrible. My family and I have to help out with changing our mother on many occasions- this is unacceptable. If more staff were on the weekends then it would be better. The management team are good, they listen to any concerns but sometimes information does not always get to the centre manager, until we, as a family, speak to her about concerns that were already made.
I find all the staff very helpful and approachable. I attended the resident day regarding my Mother-in Law which was informative and gave us the reassurance my Mother-in law's needs are being actively promoted. As a family we can visit at any time and this, once again is very reassuring. I am...
I find all the staff very helpful and approachable. I attended the resident day regarding my Mother-in Law which was informative and gave us the reassurance my Mother-in law's needs are being actively promoted. As a family we can visit at any time and this, once again is very reassuring. I am pleased with the personal care of my Mother-in Law, also the cleanliness of the home.
My mum is well looked after at Acacia Care Centre and the staff are all very helpful at all times.

Two weeks respite care. I enjoyed my stay at Acacia. I was treated with respect and dignity, and I would recommend this care home to anyone needing similar care.

Nothing was too much trouble. Whenever we visited, grandma always looked clean and comfortable. All of her personal cosmetics such as creams and powders were always used on her which made such a difference.
All the staff we met were wonderful. When she passed away, I was called within 10 minutes and we were able to get to the home to say out goodbyes within minutes of her passing. I can only thank the staff from the bottom of my heart.
Mum was only at Acacia for a week before she passed away, but the home certainly made her very comfortable and were very supportive to us as a family. They are doing an excellent job.

The care on the dementia floor is excellent, and the staff show amazing patience and compassion. I would highly recommend Acacia Care Centre.
Warm welcome when arriving, reception staff always willing and able to help with queries. Nursing staff are caring and supportive towards dad and our family. Unfortunately no outside shelter for residents or visitors in the garden during the winter months for smokers.

As the Home Manager, I take great pleasure in being actively involved in all aspects of our home.
With my nursing background, I understand the significance of delivering the highest quality care possible. I believe it’s essential to involve our residents in creating their care plans, allowing us to provide the support they truly want and need.
I aim to make a positive impact that resonates with our residents, as even the smallest gestures can make a difference. At our care home, I work closely with both staff and families to ensure we create an environment where everyone feels valued and respected. I encourage open communication, and I am always available to listen to residents’ concerns or suggestions.
Witnessing our residents and my team share laughter, smiles, and special moments brings me immense joy and reminds me daily of the meaningful work we do together.
