My mother has been a resident of Symphony for two years and four months and is now in her 99th year ! After a difficult time in the hospital after a stroke we luckily found this care home where she has received very good care from everyone. If you have a loved one this place comes highly recommended all the staff are kind and caring and will do their very best to meet all your loved ones needs. I myself feel that I can relax knowing she is cared for. The staff are permanent and they do not use agency staff. I pop in everyday to see my mum and help feed as needed ,there are no restrictions on visiting which is great as some homes do have time restrictions. The manager and his staff do a fantastic job which can be challenging at times. They are an amazing team and they all manage to make it feel like a proper home from home. Well done to you all.

My beloved sister spent 16 months with Symphony and I cannot speak too highly of the care, compassion and medical treatment she received: she died last month. Suffered from a rare neurological disease called Progressive Supranuclear Palsy which robbed her of everything. Prior to Symphony my sister was looked after at home with carers but the disease progressed quickly and 24 hour care was required. I compliment and thank both management and staff for their professionalism and care

Our family has found the home to be extremely caring and very attentive to our mums needs and wants. Mum could be challenging and fiesty with her words and actions with the staff. They always treated her with dignity and respect. They spent time building a theraputic relationship and supporting her with the choices she made. We would not hesitate recommending Symphony House. They go out of their way to help and nurture their residents. 10 out of 10.

We faced a real challenge finding a "homelike" care place for my 89-year-old dad after many months in hospital that could provide safe 24-hour medical care of some complexity. The home manager visited my dad in the hospital and met with his hospital team a number of times and put together an excellent solution. The staff are caring, knowledgeable, and helpful: I find I can ask any of them for help and they will do their best to support. My dad is safe, well cared for and, given the situation he finds himself in, as happy as he could be. I knew nothing of nursing care, both the practical and the organisational side, so being introduced to the manager and the Symphony team has been a godsend. Thank you Symphony.

Symphony House Care Home is a family for the elderly. Serving with love and compassion. Fostering a communal and loving environment bringing healing to the mind and body. The manager could be classed as a modern-day saint. He cares and loves all those in his care, goes above and beyond the call of duty. The care home staff too care for their older family members. Highly recommended for those wanting quality, and loving care for their older family members.

Dad has been a resident at Symphony House since October 2023 following a 6 month hospital stay. As a family, it was one of the most heartbreaking realisations that we were no longer able to care for Dad at home. From the very first assessment of Dad in hospital the manager of the home showed warmth and kindness, knowledge and expertise in Dad's needs and was very reassuring of our concerns. The care Dad has had and is receiving in the home is exemplary. Every member of staff from the nurses, carers, cleaners to the cook and handyman - all interact with my Dad with kindness and with us as a family. We know every member of staff and they know all of us - they are all very supportive and caring. We are invited to participate in events such as Christmas, Halloween, Chinese New Year, Valentine's lunch as well as bingo, beetle drives, and sing-a-longs. We are still making treasured happy new memories together as a family. It is truly a very special place.

My father has been at Symphony House since February 2023 to now. The proactive care, kindness and expertise of the colleagues at Symphony House is outstanding. Every member of staff knows us (the family) by name and we them too. They are attentive and supportive and they feel like part of our family. We never wanted Dad to go into a care home, but due to his nursing needs we didn’t have any other option. But, the care he receives, not only from a medical perspective but also from a love and support perspective, has blown us away. There are always activities going on and there is a huge sense of community in the home. Dad's condition is made more complicated due to underlying conditions and therefore he is at a higher risk. The team are very aware of this and they are very proactive in his care, ensuring that he has not had any relapses. I honestly can’t speak more highly of the manager, nurses, care assistants, kitchen staff, cleaners and the caretaker; they are all wonderful.

Having sustained a fall in her home whilst in the care of another provider and after a long difficult few months in hospital, we are so glad Mum (now the option of returning to her own home was taken from her) resides in Symphony House in Northampton. At Symphony House, she receives excellent care, which has led to her being far more settled, something the local hospital failed to achieve. And although Mum is now bed-bound and unable to hold a progressive coherent conversation, we are no longer concerned for her welfare. The staff are always friendly, and the manager keeps us up to date with any issues that need addressing. It was our mum's wish, and that of our family, that she would see her days out in her own home, but Symphony House has provide to be an excellent alternative.

My father has been staying at Symphony House for just over a year now, and over the course of the year, he has received outstanding care and medical attention. He has a good relationship with the staff, as do we, and nothing is too much trouble; they are always willing to help. We have every confidence in Symphony House and its management and staff.

I just wanted to say a huge thank you, which is really not enough, for the love you gave Dad whilst he was in your care. Dad could not have been looked after better, and I really appreciate all the care you gave him. It has been a difficult time for me, but it was made much easier knowing Dad has been in the best of hands with everything he needed. That made such a difference to me. Once again, thank you all; I hope you all realise how invaluable you all are and what a difference you make to people's lives by doing what you do. I hope you will continue to think of Dad, especially when you hear the words cup of tea or piece of cake. With kindest regards always.

Symphony House has provided excellent care to my mother since she moved in, in 2020. She was admitted with pressure ulcers and the debilitating effects of Covid acquired in the acute hospital. Symphony House has healed her pressure ulcers, reduced her pain and prevented further occurrences of skin breakdown. In addition to the physical care, she is treated like "one of the family.

The manager and his team have and are superb in what has been a very difficult time. A big thank you for all their care and attention to my brother.

From the very first day, my husband was treated with excellent care and attention by all of the staff the entire time he was in Symphony House. My son's and I were always made to feel welcome on our visits, and we could see by my husband's response to the staff that he was happy to see them.

I am very impressed with the care and compassion given to my aunt during her last years and days. The care given was just right for her, ensuring she was comfortable, stimulated, and her dietary needs were looked after. I could not have asked for better and am very grateful to the manager, his leadership enables the objectives of the home to be met. Thank you.

My mum (having recently passed away) had been a resident for the past six and a half years at Symphony. The standards at the home are extremely high in every respect and I can honestly say this is the most wonderful home we could have found for her. The staff go out of their way to nurse and nurture all in their care, in fact, they treat everyone like extended family and friends. We know that through the care and devotion that she received during this time her life was extended by many years. Whilst at the home, Mum lived, she laughed and above all she enjoyed life and I for one could not have asked for more. More than that the staff not only supported and cared for Mum but for her family too. When we could not be there they were her guardian angels and I have nothing but praise for all the wonderful staff at Symphony and would like to take this opportunity to thank every one of them and wish them well for the future.

I would like to put on record my gratitude to the manager and all the team at Symphony House Nursing Home for the care and effort they put in to looking after an elderly friend. She was 86 and had undergone surgery to her knees / hips over the previous 18 months, recovered from cancer, and had a few medical conditions. She was now immobile, and her memory was getting poor at times. My wife and I viewed a few care homes before we chose Symphony House. It just felt more homely, the manager, but also a qualified nurse, visited our friend in hospital to assess her and make sure they could meet her needs before offering her a place. Our friend lived at Symphony House for about 14 months, until her sudden death. In that time, she kept the same room. She thrived in the environment, preferring to spend most of her time in the day lounge with other residents, generally observing the day to day goings-on and enjoyed the regular entertainment provided. She ate well and was always in good spirits.
27 February 2020
After many months of visiting our friend on a weekly basis and being impressed with the excellent care given to her, we wish to comment on her passing at the end of December. The whole period was one of offering the greatest care and solicitude to her and those connected. Her room and property were treated with respect and there was regular contact by the manager with ourselves and her other contacts. Her actual service near the end of January was attended by a large number of residents, visitors and staff from Symphony. On our visits to Symphony since her demise, we have continued to be received in a friendly and respectful way as previously.

We were looking for a care home for my mum. After looking at a few, we went to Symphony House. On entering the home, it felt warm and friendly, all the staff and residents spoke to us as we went around. I had a number of questions to ask but they were all answered. Mum spent last Christmas and New Year with them and had a great time. She loves the activities and enjoys joining in with the games. I can see mum being here and happy for a long time. I would recommend it. My son in law works with the ambulance service and says he hasn't seen one like this for a long time.

Symphony House is an exceptional home that has provided the best, first class care to my father, and now my mother. The commitment of the manager is exceptional, and he leads a team that is unstinting in the care and support they provide to residents. The quality of the nursing is matched by the home's focus on making the day-to-day experiences of the residents as rich and varied as possible. This includes a wide variety of entertainment, including singers, instrumentalists and visiting drama groups, as well as game afternoons, arts and crafts, and numerous other activities. There are also themed dining evenings when the main room can be transformed into anything from a cruise ship to a Portuguese restaurant. An annual awards afternoon honours many staff and some visitors and residents, and it is not surprising that the home enjoys many loyal friends who regularly drop by to spend time with the residents. We were very lucky to have this jewel of a home right on our doorstep.

My mother moved into Symphony House Nursing Home late 2018 after a spell in hospital. At the time Mother was not very well at all, but here we are, more than 12 months on, now heading for 98 years old, is still with us. Myself and the family are all convinced that this is all due to the nursing and care she is receiving and has received from the staff at Symphony House.
