The care and compassion my mother receives at Sandalwood is second to none. All the staff are so friendly and welcoming, she enjoys the food and activities, the home is clean and well managed. We couldn't have chosen a better place for her. A huge thank you to you all!

I am very pleased with Sandalwood Court Care Home. All the staff do an amazing job looking after all the residents especially mum who is very happy in Sandalwood, which puts my mind at ease. I would highly recommend the home to anybody who is looking for care for themselves or a relative.

We have been blessed to have my mother in law in Sandalwood care. The team is professional, hard working and great when it comes to communication. You have to have a special kind of heart to care for vulnerable people and I must say every member of the team has such heart. They talk to my mother in
law with dignity, genuine care and warmth, make sure she has drinks, food, she is comfortable and all her needs are met. They are always in touch with me sharing information about her wellbeing and her care plan, activities and procedures.
I would like to wish health and abundance of happiness to the care team !

All the staff are very friendly to myself and all other family members. They always take the time to stop and talk to my mother by name when passing. They constantly make sure she never wants for something to eat or drink. They constantly call and email, keeping us up to date on my mother's
well-being.

Having looked at several care homes in the area, for my father who has dementia and recently lost his wife of 72 years, Sandlewood Court was an easy decision. Since my father has been there, he has vastly improved in himself and is happy with life there. He says he loves it, and everyone is so kind,
always smiling and willing to help him with every need, and he doesn't feel lonely anymore.
The whole care team are wonderful, kind, and go beyond and make my 94 year old dad feel like he's in one big happy family.
Myself and extended family agree that Sandlewood Court is all about - First class care, first!

What love and kindness have done. My sister was placed into Sandalwood Court in August 2024 in a very poor way. She was put on end-of-life and palliative care, but she was made so comfortable and cared for with love and kindness that she miraculously recovered and us very happy and content. She
cannot walk, but she joins in as much as she can and has now started knitting again at the age of 101. My heartfelt thanks go to the wonderful staff at Sandalwood Court for not only caring for my sister but also for the care and compassion they give to our family. I therefore fully recommend Sandalwood Court and would also feel comfortable there myself.

My friend was on end of life care and we were expecting the worst. However, since she has been at Sandalwood Court she has improved in bounds due to their exceptional care. She is no longer on end of life care and loves being at Sandalwood. It amazes me how much she has improved and how caring and
loving the staff are. She recently had her 101st birthday. She had 100th birthday last year and on both occasions she was spoilt with a party, where residents & friends were there. She has now started knitting!! The staff are so caring, friendly & welcoming.

I cannot thank Sandalwood Court enough for taking great care of my Aunt who is 101 years old. Their compassion and care every day gives my auntie a safe environment to live in. She is treated with dignity at all times. Staff are always welcoming and the management team are always on hand. Highly
recommend for anybody's loved ones whether it be a respite stay or permanent home.

My mum is a resident at Sandalwood care home , and I couldn't be more happy with the care that she receives.
I live in Australia and myself and my daughter came to visit my mum.
Sandalwood went above and beyond , letting us have a family gathering on Saturday 21st June in the residents garden
area. Sandalwood provided Sandwhiches, cakes and other snacks for us all to enjoy . The activities coordinator took time out to take some fabulous family photos, which was much appreciated .
The whole family had a fab day.

I would like to commend the staff at Sandlewood Care Home in Corby for their very kind offer of supporting myself and family to provide a garden party for my mum who was having visitors from Australia and London and her family from Corby.
The kitchen staff provided a buffet and a beautiful, very
tasty sponge cake, along with plenty of drinks to keep us all hydrated in the sunshine.
The activity coordinators supplied lots of games and equipment for all the family to use and took lots of photos for the family album.
The care home staff went over and above their daily roles to do all of the above.
My mum has been in Sandlewood for 18 months now and I would not want our mum/gran/GG to be living anywhere else.
The home exceeds expectations and deserved 10 out of 10 for their kindness, empathy and caring attitudes towards the residents that live in the home. Well done to the manager and your team

I can not fault anything here, I am good, great staff. We all have a good laugh. I do odd little things with the gardening, keep them nice and tidy and they all call it my garden for what I have done as it was a mess. I have also walked around the whole building picking up all the rubbish. I can't
thank you for letting me stay. I have lights for the garden to make it look a little cheerful. All staff love what I have done since I first came to live here. I thank you.
