My wife has now been at Laverstock for over three years.
In that time she has been treated with the utmost respect and looked after to a high professional degree
She eats very well and the food served is of a very high quality.
Her personal room is serviced on a daily basis and the home itself
is always very clean and provides a warm and welcoming environment.
The Nursing staff are always ready to discuss any arising medical issues and keep me fully informed of any problems.
The staff give 100% and are always friendly and willing to go the extra mile.
I am very happy to have my wife at Laverstock as I know she is being cared for to a high degree.

Accommodation quite basic. Quite a lot of things are wearing out and need replacing.
Staff are caring in the main. Some are lovely. Night staff leave a bit to be desired.
Food sometimes unsuitable/inedible for my parents.
Feels expensive for the amount my parents are able to take advantage of
facilities.

Mum has been at the care home for 6 months. There has been good and bad things about her stay there.
Most of the staff are friendly and kind others seem to just be there because they have to be.
Sometimes she feels she isn't listened too about certain things.
Have had a few problems relating
to medication and her oxygen but these are being dealt with.
None of her clothes have been labelled yet even though they asked us to buy tags.
Other than that it has been good.

My mother has been in your care for a few years. She has dementia and this causes her lots or problems, mentality and physically. She has lots of fears and worries.
Every single member of staff treats her with respect, patience, kindness and utmost care. They calm her down when she is frightened,
they cheer her up when she is down, they take the time to explain things to her when she is confused.
She participates in most of the activities and really enjoys them, she gets upset if she cant if for example she is not well enough.
I think the activities and social side are very important to mum, before she came into care, she was a very social and active person with a large circle of friends, especially her church friends. She found it extremely hard to adjust when through very serious illness she had to go into care. The activities and socialising really helped her to adjust and accept, and continue to do so.
I have complete peace of mind, knowing my mother is safe and well cared for.

Excellent service by everyone and very good communication very helpful and the security of the care home and a very warm welcome when we enter the care home by all management and staff and very pleased with all the events that are organised by the care home

Thankful to all the staff who make a daily difference. The Wednesday high tea is the weekly highlight, many thanks to all. It's only been four or so months and I believe it was a good decision to move in.

My mother was admitted to Laverstock Care Centre earlier this year. She had lost a lot of weight, had numerous falls, spirits were extremely low due to being isolated. But the difference now is uplifting. She has put on weight, she loved the food provided, and although she had a couple of falls, she
has been looked after and checked over very quickly. She also enjoys the activities and having her hair done.

All staff very friendly and helpful. It has given me peaceful nights after so many noisy nights in hospital.

My husband come to Laverstock Care Centre for 8 days respite, it was his first time. For the first 3 days he was a bit lost - not knowing his way about but when the Customer Relationship Manager he was happier. The personal care, medication and food were excellent. My husband did struggle with being
amongst other clients who were sick, dying and making a lot of noise. He enjoyed his room and the TV very much.

Home is clean and well-run. Staff good, treated with dignity. First care home we have been in that doesn't have an 'odour'. Thanks so much to all for looking after Dad in his final weeks.

I continue to be completely reassured by the standard of care provided to my father at Laverstock.
He celebrated his 100th birthday there in August and I much appreciated the kindness and generosity of the management and staff in ensuring that he had a day to remember.
I am confident that the
nursing care he receives aligns completely with his mental and physical requirements and abilities and my questions as to his well-being are always answered honestly and willingly.
My father prefers not to participate in the comprehensive agenda of activities, preferring to enjoy the television and newspaper in his room. Despite this, the activities team do let him know what is taking place and he is encouraged to participate. His frailty unfortunately does not permit him to enjoy the outside trips laid on by the team.
I am always greeted in a friendly way by the reception, administration and facilities staff, who have always shown great kindness to me and other visitors.

Wife very happy.

I have been coming into Laverstock now for 11 years and have seen the ups and downs in the home over the years but I have to say the improvements have been excellent in the last year, so keep it up.

My experience at Laverstock Care Centre has been exemplary. After the first viewing, we accepted the offer of an available room only two days later. Every aspect of the care is superb. The nurses are wonderful, there are many of them and nothing is too much trouble. The food is very good. My husband
has made excellent progress in the short time he has been here and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Laerstock Care Centre to anyone. A particular member of staff was always particularly helpful.

I found the care my sister received at the care home very good. All the staff are caring and friendly and do a very good job, the nursing staff are excellent. Nothing was too much trouble.
25 October 2023
I have found my stay (2 weeks or 15 nights for some reason) very beneficial to my recovery after 2 weeks in hospital. I have done as much as possible for myself but when help was needed it was there and given with pleasure. The staff are amazing and show endless patience. I found the food very
stoggy too much starch and not enough fruit. The helpings are too large so a lot of wastage but imaginative and varied.
25 October 2023
The day I came for 2 weeks respite to enable my assessment for rehabilitation my first impression of the staff and facilities, it looked like a 4-star hotel with a team of staff working as a team, with smiles on their faces. I went home with wonderful thoughts about it and I am now with the
wonderful team of physiotherapists, unbelievable! Yesterday was my first day of minor treatment and I have already achieved most of my goals. The care staff and managers are very good.

Welcoming greeted with a smile. My husband has been in this care home for a little while. Each and everyone of the staff are always caring and supportive when they are not busy with other clients. Carers just keep going nonstop. Weekends are a great concern, so few carers. Carers are very kind and
supportive and dignified. As for management, do not know who they are. Rooms are ok, carpets could do with a shampoo. Kitchen meals are very poor, size of the kitchen needs to be larger, a lick of paint would go a long way. Water jugs and beakers are awful. If my husband eats any more mince meals, he's going to look like mince.z

Very friendly and welcoming staff. As you walk through the main doors it has a feeling of home and a calming presence.
