Overall Experience
All your staff are friendly and happy around me and my mum. The staff work exceptionally hard to keep Hawthorns Aldridge to high standards in cleanliness and support of the residents.
They also extend care and thought to me when I'm visiting or have a concern.

I also came here today as a volunteer with the local parish church big help out. I am inspired by the care and commitment to support and give back.

Review from Lorna E (Daughter of Resident) published on 5 June 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My mother has spent 6 weeks in respite care at this wonderful place. The staff are all helpful, cheery and polite, the rooms are large and bright, the tables in the restaurants are well dressed, the gardens are attractive, the hairdresser is talented. The atmosphere every time we visited was calm and happy with the scent of fresh coffee wafting in the air. The building is kept spotlessly clean. When/if the time comes for a permanent stay, Hawthorns Aldridge will be first choice. Thank you everyone at the Hawthorns!

Reply from Michelle Moore, Customer Service Manager at Hawthorns Aldridge - Avery Healthcare

Mum has settled really well. She seems healthy and is walking much better than at home. She likes the food and feels she is overeating as it's so tasty, good news as she needs to put on some weight. Thanks, everyone.

Overall Experience

My uncle lived at the Hawthorns Aldridge from 2019 until his passing in March 2023. The care team were always helpful and friendly, and as I live a long way away they made efforts to keep me informed. He was well cared for and nursed with compassion to the end.

Reply from Kate Gilligan, Home Manager at Hawthorns Aldridge - Avery Healthcare

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. I have shared your lovely feedback with the wider team and they were touched by your kindness. It was a pleasure, and a privilege, to get to know your uncle, he was a true gentleman in every sense of the word. If you are ever in the area please feel free to pop in for a coffee and a catch up. Best wishes, Kate

Overall Experience

My father came to Hawthorns Aldridge in late December 2022. As a family, we visited many other facilities and we decided this care home best suited our father's needs. We were not disappointed, the care and consideration given by all the care home workers at all levels during his stay was outstanding. We cannot thank you enough.

Overall Experience

Having visited a number of care homes in the area, the first impression of the Hawthorns Aldridge Care Home stood out. Our first thoughts have been fully confirmed during this period. We had major concerns about our father entering into care but all of our fears have been removed by the excellence of the staff at every level. Our father is happy and therefore we are very happy.

My mum has dementia, she has been at the Hawthornes Aldridge for approximately four months, following a two week respite visit.
My mom settled in so well that Mom became a permanent resident.

All I can say is that every member of staff are caring, so professional and provide everything to my moms needs. As her daughter, I was so reassured that Mom is happy and safe. I highly recommend the Hawthornes.

Review from Geraldine A (Niece of Resident) published on 12 December 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I am very disappointed following my Uncles death on 9th November 2022 that no one has contacted me. Not even about the funeral. So review may get a response. There are questions I wanted to ask. Like why was he not accompanied to the hospital at nearly 94, when I was told he was only grunting. When my brother got to A&E he was in a terrible state. He died of a water infection. Box with a change of catheter, when getting hospital bag. Should this have been changed earlier? Asked re a refund of fees told there would be a charge for redecoration and it would be discussed. He moved in Covid times, the room was not redecorated for his move. New resident in room at least 2 weeks. No contact from management re credit, now 3rd December. Fees going up £95 a week from Jan. £210 a week in 14 months. Very disappointed with the final care and no aftercare service after 3 years here.

Reply from Kate Gilligan, Home Manager at Hawthorns Aldridge - Avery Healthcare

The team loved caring for and getting to know your Uncle during his time with us; he was a true gentleman and is sincerely missed. We are sorry that you feel we did not meet your expectations when you visited us after your Uncle's passing, leaving you cause to leave a negative review.

Your Uncle...

The care home is a joke, wouldn't put my dog here! Cover up the truth, just after your money. My father has a life again after leaving this place. He was sat in the same place next to the toilet every day, no motivation, no care. Even now after we moved him they never told his medication suppliers he had left.

Review from J W (Daughter of Resident) published on 9 September 2022 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

The hawthorns is a lovely care home environment - happy, light, spacious, clean and modern. My mum's room overlooks the garden has a kitchen - an added bonus as this helps her maintain some independent living. There are lots of activities/trips out that she can get involved in and the staff who run this are excellent. A great choice of food - the dining room is one of Mum's favourite places. However, the management and support staff have on occasion, failed to return our telephone calls which has been frustrating and Mum is at a high risk of a fall and the staff haven't always ensured she has her walking frame.

Mom has been receiving respite care at Hawthorns Aldridge Care Home for the last few weeks. From the moment we arrived the staff have been so kind and helpful. Nothing is too much trouble. Mom has a lovely, clean room with everything she needs. There are attractive gardens, communal areas and a dining room. Each week activities are organised and residents are encouraged to attend. Mom is being well cared for and that is very reassuring for her family.

Overall Experience

On 4th July 2022, I will be a resident at Hawthorns for 5 years. My experience has been mixed. Becoming a care home meant that standards dropped considerably. Now I see improvements as they are being raised again, especially in the dining room. This is my home, where I am very happy and feel safe and secure. Care for me is available if and when I should need it. There have been many managers during my stay here and it is wonderful to have one who has stayed longer than others. Her door is open to all staff and residents. At our resident meetings, she keeps us up to date with audits, staff turnover, cost of food etc. I thank God for bringing me here.

Hi, I'm Mel! I'm an activities co-ordinator here at The Hawthorns. I've just joined the team and am excited to get to know all the staff and residents.

Judy Cutt
Judy CuttJob Title:Client Liaison ManagerJoined: 2026

Hello, my name is Judy, and I am the Client Liaison Manager at The Hawthorns Care Home.

I started working at The Hawthorns in June 2026. My favourite part of the role is meeting new residents and showcasing the lovely facilities that The Hawthorns Care Home has to offer. We are lucky to have a beautiful home in Aldridge. We have residents who have lived with us for years and some who come for respite.

My background is sales, but there is nothing like this role and the satisfaction of helping families in their journey to find care for their loved one. I have over 10 years of experience in the care sector and have a strong understanding of care in the community and of the journey of looking for a care home for a loved one.

I help to support residents and their families with compassion as their loved ones transition into our care. I will also work closely with the local community, leading engagement initiatives and events to build meaningful connections that enrich life within the home.

I believe in creating a supportive environment where every resident feels valued, every family feels reassured, and our community feels welcomed and involved.
