My Mother in law stayed here in a beautiful room. We couldn't have asked for anything better. The care that she received was second to none. The staff couldn't do enough for her, she was really well looked after & nothing was too much trouble. They also looked after relatives, asking if we wanted a drink, bringing sandwiches, toast & eggs, as we stayed with Mum over night for 2 nights, they were really attentive. If I had to stay in a care home, I would want to stay there. The staff & accommodation are truly amazing.
Thank you so much for such a lovely ,and positive review of our home and the service we provide. It is so reassuring to us to know that your experience was positive. We highly value your support and feedback.

Prior to mum going into Respite, my brothers and myself looked at quite a few care homes in Barnsley, Autumn House stood out from the others ,very relaxed atmosphere, a small home compared to the others ,very friendly,very good staff ratio,always staff around ,residents sat in lounges throughout daytime communicating with each other ,activities every day ,lovely meals served, always different choices.We didn't think mum would settle ,but now shes onto her 2nd month of respite (only supposed to be for 2 weeks),now looking at long term care there as shes settled in so well .This care home has met all mum's care needs beyond my expectations, shes like a different woman, more chatty ,happy,relaxed ,has stated on numerous occasions that she feels safe.Mum was a recluse at her own home not wanting to do anything different ,just to sit in front of tv but now shes got socialisation, interacts with other residents and loves the staff.I can go home now knowing mums being very well cared for.
Thank you so much for leaving us such a lovely and positive review. we are delighted to hear that you are very happy with the care and support your mum receives. it is lovely to see how well your mum has settled in. thank you for all your support, it is very much appreciated by us all.

My Mother in Law has late stage dementia and has been in the care home for 4 weeks to date, and the care and support is second to none, everyone from top to bottom show care and compassion and has made it easy for her to settle in a new environment, the facilities are excellent, bright pleasant bedrooms, large spacious lounges and conservatories, and lovely garden spaces for nice weather,the daily stimulation with various activities are really helping with cognitive functioning. Visiting is only restricted during meal times which is great, and when we visit we are always made very welcome. Everyone is treated like family from all the residents, carers and visitors. Highly recommend Autumn House

My mum has been in Autumn House since it reopened. Her physical and mental health were in decline but since she went to AH there has been a massive improvement, this is down to the excellent care she now receives. Everybody at AH - directors, management, carers, catering and maintenance staff are fully focused and make sure the residents are cared for and are kept safe and well. There are many activities for the residents to be involved in and the theme days are fun for all residents, staff and relatives. I would fully recommend AH as a care home.
Thank you for your beautiful review. We are absolutely over the moon with how satisfied you are with the care we provide. Our residents mean th world to us, there is nothing we won't do for them. Thank you for your continued support.
My mum is well looked after, the home is very clean with no nasty smells. Staff are all very nice and treat people with respect. They keep mum active and busy. Food is very good and snacks are offered and good. If asked for anything, they go above and beyond to assist. Far the best in Barnsley.

A positive ongoing experience from admittance. Although having to admit my husband will be hardest decision I have had to make, it has made a huge difference to his demeanor, ability to carry out more tasks on a daily basis and know that he is cared for like I would expect him to be cared for and like the care I would expect. He is a very accepting person, and I am forever grateful of his care and attention. It doesn't feel like a care home but a place to be treated with continued respect and dignity.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. we are thrilled to know that you are happy with the level of care your loved one receives. we will always promote independence where possible and include participation. Thank you for your continued support to us, we truly appreciate it.

Activities provided by staff means regular engagement in stimulating and fun times. He appears to be thoroughly enjoying the meals, so much so he has needed bigger trousers.
We couldn't be happier with the care that he is receiving which has made the transition from living at home into a care home a lot easier.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. It is very reassuring to know that you are happy with the care your grandad receives. We really value and appreciate your feedback.
