Old Rectory at bramshall has been a wonderful lifeline for my mum and our family. The care is no 1, the home welcomed mum with open arms. They care of her everyday care, from helping with her personal care, showers, meals and medication. They really have helped mum to smile again and have given her the chance to be more social with the other residents. Mum was so isolated and frightened in her own home. Her fears have now gone and she has settled so well. We are so thankful for the rectory for putting the spark back into mums eyes. Would highly recommend.

My mother comes to bramshall care home when I go on holiday as I know she will be well cared for. She always says how kind all the staff are to her and how they help her into bed, help her find the lounge etc etc, she's loves all the attention she gets too and she says she's made lots of friends. I also email the nursing home every few days I'm away to check on my mom and I always get a same day reply. We have used other care homes previously but this one really is 10 out of 10.

The Old Rectory is a treasure of a Care Home! It has a very welcoming homely atmosphere/environment, and genuinely cares about each individual resident. The Staff are well qualified professionals who offer a very personal and tailored approach to meet the needs of each resident. They are caring, friendly, respectful and considerate to residents and to each other. Dignity is upheld. It is clean, warm and safe. There are individual and communal areas and a decked terrace to the rear for relaxation or activities. Daily planned activities are scheduled. Freshly prepared home cooked food is available daily. The food menu is extensive, diverse, delicious and well balanced. All dietary requirements are catered for. Calls and communication are excellent at The Old Rectory. Regular updates are available via the app. We feel incredibly fortunate and grateful as a family for all of the staff, for what they do and for them constantly going that extra mile. Thankyou Old Rectory Family!

Mum and Dad have been having regular respite here for about twelve months and we as a family are happy with the care and kindness of the staff . They always have a smile and are helpful and seem to want to make a difference. We have had some teething problems in the past which did get resolved but the last few months in particular we feel the care has been even better. We also feel there has been more activities on offer for the residents. The environment seems to have improved too. The new manager has been very helpful and seems to have had a positive influence on the home and the running of it . Thanks everyone you are doing a great job which I'm sure can be very difficult at times.

Caring and proactive staff, many of whom are long serving and this builds trust and confidence. They are patient and understanding. The home is generally clean and tidy and feels welcoming and well run. Mum's room is clean and tidy and the bins are emptied frequently. Mum also has frequent offers of a hot drink throughout the day. However, cups and plates can be left in her room for some hours after she has finished eating or drinking and this is less satisfactory.

My mum has been at The Old Rectory for 12 months now. She has Alxheimers. Initially she arrived as a respite care resident, eventually becoming a permanent arrangement. As a family we have been relieved at the quality of the staff oversight. I have been included in a care plan review a month ago which was informative in terms of the efforts made to make her stay enjoyable, safe and comfortable.

My mother-in-law was a resident from September 2023 till July 2024. The care and dedication by all staff to her was amazing and dedication to their roles went that bit extra in all aspects of her care. At the end of life, the care and compassion shown to my mother-in-law and our family went above and beyond by all members of staff. This support and care made her passing something we will remember as an act of extreme kindness at a difficult time and helped not only my mother-in-law but all our family and visitors.

The staff are so conscious about the patients' needs. From the manager down to the rest of that staff are brilliant. The accommodation is excellent.

Having observed my wife as a resident at Bramshall Old Rectory Care Home, suffering with Alzheimer's disease and mixed dementia, I decided to join the home as a resident myself in March 2023. My reviews are then both a subjective and objective perspective. The staff/residents and staff/staff relationships are excellent and accordingly, the care quality reflects this at all times. The food is of a very high standard and the residents are well stimulated and their needs are well met by trained and experienced staff ensuring that satisfaction and happiness are well met by positive leadership.

I come from America every year to visit my gramps and I am so happy that he is well looked after. All of the staff are very friendly and patient. Gramps also loves the food. Thank you for all of your hard work.

My mum is happy at The Old Rectory. She has many health problems and she is cared for in a friendly and dignified manner. She always seems to be clean when I visit. I can see the care she receives from the community nurses is also good. It is sad that the regular entertainer has retired and hope they soon find a replacement as the stimulus of these activities is so important. I hope Mum continues to be cared for in this caring and friendly home.

My mum has been at Bramshall Old Rectory Care Home for the past four months and I cannot recommend them highly enough. They are caring and put the residents first at all times. She has a lovely room with wonderful views and it is always spotlessly clean. Meals are homecooked and there always seems plenty of drinks to keep residents hydrated. The outstanding feature is the care and consideration shown by all staff. I can relax knowing she is well-loved and looked after.

Mum is always looked after and is very much loved by all the team. I could not wish for anywhere better, and nothing is too much trouble. The food is very good. Mum's care needs are taken care of very well as she suffers from Alzheimer's disease. There is regular entertainment, musicians, singers and bingo. Everyone makes me feel welcome when I visit. The home is always clean and tidy. Rooms are well equipped and have an en suite. Thank you all for your continuing care and the love my mother receives.

We would like better communication about our Mom. We are never told anything about her care or if a GP visits. We visited Mom one day in her room. The commode was left with faeces in. Mom likes it here and enjoys activities, which is nice.
04 May 2022
Overall, care is good. She appears happy. She states the food is good. The room often smells of urine and a commode was left with faeces on one visit. We are never informed of GP visits or district nurse visits. Lap straps not used when going out in her wheelchair. We have purchased one. Mum enjoys the community feel of the home and the staff are always pleasant with her even if she is rude to them.

Very welcoming atmosphere, very friendly staff. My nan always seems happy, clean and well cared for. Any concerns are dealt with straight away.

Having "suffered" isolation for four weeks, with no contact with other residents, at a previous nursing home, I moved her to the Old Rectory. The transformation of my wife has been outstanding. The staff is attentive to her every need, particularly as she has a cracked vertebra, making movement difficult, on top of Parkinson's Dementia. I wish I had found this place in the first instance.
28 February 2020
I have no complaints at all. Food particularly good. I don't mean to be churlish but I don't want to keep filling in these reviews, suffice to say my brothers and I are more than satisfied.

The care received at the home over a period of nearly three years has been really very good on the whole. Staffing levels have been inadequate at times but the new manager is putting things in place and you can see things improving, including the morale of the staff, which is the foundation.

My dad came to stay at Bramshall Old Rectory over two years ago and very soon referred to it as home. We can't thank the staff enough for the ongoing care he receives. The team take time to get to know the residents and are always happy to support them and also their family. Nothing is too much trouble. The rooms are clean, spacious and well equipped. The food is also of the highest quality and residents needs are well met. My dad enjoys a joke with the staff and it is so lovely to see the relationships between them. All residents are treated with dignity and therefore, I would highly recommend this care home.
