The care my mother receives was very good. Staff great. Nice room. The whole place is very good. I would recommend the home.

My father is a resident now after a stay of respite since March 25. My father absolutely loves living at Deerswood and has a great time taking part in the activities they provide. The staff are amazing, friendly and extremely helpful and caring. The management have selected a great team to look after the residents at a very high standard, and they go above and beyond. We couldn't wish for a better place for our dad.

Wow great day at the summer fair. Was so good to see that mum was taken outside to the garden. She was tapping her feet and moving to the music. Thank you everyone that took the time and made the effort to get her there, we really appreciate the time and care you give our mum.

Visited the home today to see my friend's dad, the home had a lovely friendly atmosphere, I received a warm welcome, it was nice to see the residents in the communal areas enjoying an activity. The home has some lovely gardens for them to see and spend time in, my friend's dad is very happy.

I visited my father-in-law who is living with Alzheimer's. It was great to see him and the other residents happy and enjoying an activity. I always receive a warm and friendly welcome and it gives my wife and I peace of mind knowing he is well cared for. The staff are always so helpful and the home environment is clean and well-maintained.

Deerswood Lodge Care Home is multi-cultural. Our manager from when she first came said '"Remember this is your home". Her reassuring words meant a lot. When COVID and lockdowns happened, the home stayed positive. When we came out of the EU, food and commercial goods became very costly or unavailable. The two staff have many activities available, one is gardening, a lot of wheelbarrows were donated, management decided they would have a competition, leaders, teams of residents and staff were selected to each unit. The paint, decoration, soil, plants were added. A garden party for 2 hours, families attended. The winner was announced. The event was very successful. The food menu, if it doesn't suit, there are alternatives on offer. There can be sad times when we lose a resident, I think of the good memories. I have met amazing and wonderful people.

I have been a resident for almost 2 years I cannot fault deerswood in anyway. When I went through radiotherapy they were there supporting me and I felt safe knowing if anything I was worried about there was always someone to talk to which was comforting. The staff are brilliant from cleaners, care workers to management. Deerswood should be proud and I'm honoured that I am in such a lovely place. There is always something going on and I especially enjoy the quizzes

Mum has been here for over a year and has finally settled down which is due to the friendly, caring staff. She is now enjoying the activities that she is interested in. She has nothing but praise for the staff and feels it is her home, very hard for someone who lived in the same home for over 70 years. Keep the good work up!

My sister has only just moved to Deerswood. The place where she was before was closed down and she had been there nearly 14 years so I was concerned about how the move would be. The staff and residents have gone out of their way to welcome her and she has settled in very quickly. I am so very grateful to all at Deerswood Lodge for caring for her and making this transition a success. She is so happy.

Good home with a dedicated team who run the home with good processes. The staff are friendly and helpful and the residents are well looked after. Lots of exciting things happening each day to keep residents entertained.

My mother-in-law became a resident 5 months ago and from day one she was treated with care and dignity and patience. During this time she now regards the staff as her friends as they greet her with a smile, and nothing is too much trouble. She enjoys her visit at the hairdresser on a Friday.

My wife suffers from Alzheimer's and had a fall at home. She has subsequently moved into Deerswood Lodge and we are seeing how she settles in. The facilities are excellent and the staff warm, friendly and helpful. My wife at the moment is unsure of herself and if you want to stay in your room as a result that's not a problem as staff will bring to you everything you want. You can do as much as you want or as little as you want - nothing is an issue. The Manager, works tirelessly and has a number of things happening at the same time but doesn't flap and seems to guide people in the right direction My first experiences with a Care Home but they have helped me to try and get my wife into their family as quickly as possible Thank you to all at Deerswood Lodge!

Would just like to thank all the staff for looking after my uncle. They go above and beyond so thanks to all the staff at Deerswood Care Home he is well looked after and very content.

My mum came to Deerswood care home in late November. The staff and carers were very helpful, friendly and efficient. Unfortunately, my mum was only there for a short time (February) when she passed away. I can't praise the carers enough for all the support and care they gave my mum. This care home is one in a million, I would highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a home for their parents. Thank you again for the care you gave my mum.

Our mother lived at Deerswood for 3 years and passed away last November. We were very happy with the care given to her and she seemed content and happy during her stay. We were particularly pleased with the palliative care she received during her last weeks; we were consoled knowing she was loved and cared for at all times.

Excellent care home. Would highly recommend. All staff very caring. Don't think my step father would still be alive if it wasn't for his care at Deerswood Lodge.

The care is good here it's unbelievable. My brother-in-law is so happy he is at Deerswood Lodge. The staff are so caring and looking after all the residents. The home is kept so clean and tidy and is run professionally. A bit thank you to the manager and all her staff at Deerswood Lodge. My brother-in-law is always laughing or giggling to himself.
