We found Hazelwood ideal for my father. The care of the staff was excemplary, and their understanding of his dementia and dietary limitations was more than welcome. After an uneven stream of carers at the home, which left him confused and depressed, to see him enjoying the activities at Hazelwood
was most heatening. The nursing staff were also very caring, and always kept us up to date with his health.
Everyone was most thoughtful and friendly towards dad and the family and it was a pleasure to visit him.

Mum, having dementia, was unable to care for herself and wanted to go into care. We chose Hazelwood over other local carehomes and were not disappointed. Mum settled quickly, everyone made her feel so welcome and comfortable, she had people to talk with and lots of activities to keep her amused. The
care and service at Hazelwood is a credit to all the staff. We could not fault the level of care provided.

Mum went into Hazelwood Care Home in May. We were all very apprehensive but after a few days she settled down and seemed calmer. All the staff in every department have been amazing and we could not have asked for more. They not only cared for Mum but the time and support they gave us as the family
has been outstanding.

Lovely, helpful staff welcomed my mother into the nursing/dementia wing. She was encouraged to join in with residents and stimulating activities. Sadly, she was not at Hazelwood long, as she was very frail at 91, but I would not hesitate to recommend Hazelwood to others. It is much better than other
homes I visited before choosing this one.

Hazelwood has been excellent. The building is lovely, compact but quite luxurious. The meals looked lovely & we were offered sandwiches by a member of staff when we were there. All the staff were very caring & respectful, especially when Mother-in-law was at the end. Can't recommend them all highly
enough.

Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a care home. Right at the beginning, Hazelwood management did their best to accommodate our needs. During the short stay, Mum was there, I felt staff were always approachable & willing to go the extra mile with any requests we made.
28 March 2025
My Mother moved into Hazelwood Care Home in April 2022 following the onset of dementia and was a resident until March 2025, when she sadly passed away.
I cannot speak highly enough of the care and assistance that was provided to Mum by everyone at Hazelwood during her time at the Home, and the
support and consideration that was shown to us at the time of her passing, and would thoroughly recommend Hazelwood Care Home to anyone who is seeking a safe, happy and caring environment for their loved ones.
Thank you to everyone at Hazelwood!

My mother came here six weeks after hip surgery and from her home of over 50 years and she was certainly worried about this upheaval. The manager and all and all of the staff have been so engaging and her room is comfortable and with pictures brought from her home. It's an environment where she is
confident, comfortable and being extremely well cared for.

Hazelwood Home treated our dad with the upmost respect, love and showed him every kindness every single day during his stay. Nothing was ever to much trouble for them and Dad was very happy and settled in his new surroundings!
Every single staff member chatted to him and made sure his every need
was catered for in a calm and safe environment. As a family we cant recommend Hazelwood Home highly enough they are amazing!
Thank you for looking after our dad!

Wonderful care home. My mum has now been here for nearly 2 years with no problems, in fact, she is doing really well. She is always out of bed, clean and above all, very happy. The staff are amazing, kind and caring. I would recommend this home highly. Keep up the good work!

The staff at Hazelwood Care Home are so lovely to both my Mum and ourselves. They are always so kind and caring and nothing is too much trouble. They look after my Mum like she was a member of their own family. The activities Hazelwood puts on for the residents are always upbeat and engaging. The
atmosphere throughout the whole of the home from the minute you walk in is so positive. We cannot recommend this care home enough.

When my husband was first transferred to Hazelwood Care Home three years ago he was in a terrible state, but thanks to all the wonderful staff and their top level care he is now in a stable condition. He loves his new home, and our family have such a weight lifted off of us knowing that he's so
happy and well looked after. It really does feel like a home away from home. The new manager is lovely and has maintained the high standards Hazelwood is renowned for. It's a warm, nurturing environment, everyone's friendly and helpful, with lots of activities and events to keep the residents engaged. We're eternally grateful to all the staff and can't recommend the home enough!

We came to Hazelwood Care Home in a time of need a few days before Christmas, hoping for some respite care for our elderly father. After explaining to the manager our situation, she immediately took control and drove to my father's home to carry out an initial assessment and put everything into
place for him to come into care on Christmas Eve. Wonderful people, very caring, lovely and clean, great facilities. They were our saviours, we will be forever grateful. Thank you to all.

Mum was taken into Hazelwood in June 2023, suffering with severe dementia; her condition worsened such that she sadly passed away this month. During her time at Hazelwood, the staff have been truly amazing showing her every care and attention. The family have been made to feel very welcome, and
equally receive warmth on all our visits. As she started to slip away from us, the team made sure that she was comfortable and free from agitation and any pain, treating at all times with the dignity that each of us would expect. I cannot praise Hazelwood highly enough.

Mum has been at Hazlewood Care Home for three years now, I can honestly say she has been so well looked after. They gave her an amazing 100th birthday party. The bedrooms are always kept lovely and clean along with all the other areas within the home. They do so many lovely activities, always busy
and have lots of fun. All the staff work so hard and always look happy. They make you feel like one of the family. Keep up the good work.

The staff in this home always seem to have time for the people in their care. Nothing is too much trouble. The residents seem happy and are well looked after. My mother's health has improved since he has been in the home.
27 August 2024
We recently celebrated my dad's 90th birthday at the home. They could not have done more to make the celebration any better by providing afternoon tea and a birthday cake for all the family. The staff made it a special day for us, many thanks.

Hazlewood is an amazing place.
Every person I met breathed and incarnated the word care. Here everyone cares, the atmosphere is simply lovely.
I can imagine no better place on earth for an elderly person.
I recommend Hazlewood without any reservations.
Congratulations to all the staff.

Hazelwood Care Home provide a very caring and compassionate environment. My wife is treated with respect and she is well settled in the home since moving in October 2023. The home has been well-led. Staff are friendly and excellent activity support is given.
Family involvement is encouraged and
welcomed. We feel like a big family. I note my wife has early onset illnesses and a high level of support is required.
31 July 2024
My experience of Hazelwood Care Home is rated as very good. Clean home, care is very good, food good and assistance is always good and positive. An incident that happened with my wife was handled with excellent care and efficiency.
Thank you.
