The care provided at Church View is excellent. The home is bright and clean with good living spaces. The food is varied and well cooked. The staff are professional and caring and do their best to make the residents feel at home. A special mention must go to the lifestyle team who put in a huge
amount of effort to keep the residents engaged and active. There are organised activities most days which all are encouraged to join. In my view the residents are treated with respect and kindness.

Christmas dinner, very professionally done, all staff joined in to make it a brilliant occasion. Had a wonderful time and Mam did too. It was very nice to speak to other people, catch up and meet new too. Brilliant event.

I can't express how grateful I am to have found your home to care for my dad. The first time I came to visit, I walked in and instantly felt it was a 'home' not someones job. The care from the staff, all the staff is exemplary. As a family it has helped make the awful decision to place dad in care
so much easier. We all feel comfortable, contented and safe leaving him when we go home. Words can't express it fully. Just thank you so much.

Mam has been in Church View for 10 months now. Her care has been outstanding in all aspects. The staff also provide the family with care and compassion which is much appreciated. I used to work as a community nurse, for people with dementia and this is one of the nicest care homes I have been in.

Excellent, staff very helpful.

As a daughter, I found it very difficult to place Mam into a care home but as her condition deteriorated, Mam needed 24hr care. All staff welcomed Mam with kindness and compassion, which has continued to this present day. If I have any concerns or worries, they are dealt with immediately. This is
very reassuring. She is cared for with compassion and empathy at all times. All members of staff feel like an extended family to us. Church View is a well run care home by an efficient management team. Thanks to all of you.

In appearance, Church View almost resembles a Travel Lodge style. It has well appointed rooms, is clean and tidy, with a mature garden area and plenty of space to park. The staff are very friendly and each resident receives a high level of care. Residents are listened to and treated with respect at
all times. There are always fun things to do. As well as holding fund raising fetes, there are many activities for the residents and their families, if they wish, to participate in. If crafts are your thing, or you like a bit of gardening, you can join in whenever you like. If you need a bit of exercise, then the armchair workouts to music are fun. Or if you want to do something less energetic, maybe bingo or fun quizzes are right up your street. If you just want to relax, you're welcome to rest in your room or sit in the spacious lounge. There is a variety of good quality food on offer too.

My mother was taken into Church View after a fall which resulted in a broken shoulder. She had also developed a urinary Tract infection and needed recuperation and rehabilitation following a stay in hospital.
Initially I was apprehensive about her going into a care home but church view was such a
welcoming and pleasant environment it put my mind at ease. The staff are excellent and the home is well managed. There is a friendly atmosphere and there's always something going on for the residents to do. My mother settled in quite quickly and was happy to be there which was a weigh off our mind. Im pleased she is in such a good care home and its reassuring to know that she is safe and well looked after.

Mother came to the care home recently from living independently. The process was carried out in a professional, caring way with minimal stress for her and the family.This level of care has continued from excellent staff in the well designed and maintained home. Particularly impressive is the level
of cleanliness and the activity programme for the residents. I would strongly recommend the care home.

My mother receives the care and attention she requires by a team of very dedicated staff who go above and beyond to care for my mother with dignity care and compassion, I find if I have any queries regarding my mother they are answered promptly and efficiently by members of staff, it was a very
hard decision for me personally to place my mother into a care home and after visiting a few others in the area I find I took the right decision, I am very comfortable leaving my mother knowing she receives the care and attention she requires.

It's approaching 2 years for our mother as a resident, and she has had consistently excellent care from an amazing team of carers. She participates in most of the daily activities and loves having her hair and nails done every week. As a family, we were hesitant at the prospect of our mother
becoming a resident, but she quickly settled in and thoroughly enjoys her life. We believe her life has been extended due to the exceptional care she receives, and we and our family are greatly comforted in the knowledge she is very happy and so well cared for by an amazing team. The Care Home is well maintained, incredibly clean, and the food is excellent quality.

My mother receives outstanding care from an amazing team of carers who go above and beyond to meet her individual needs. The Care Home is superbly led by the Assistant Care Manager who inspires and motivates the team and always finds solutions if any problems arise. She is cared for with great
dignity, love, respect and compassion. The carers are encouraged to spend time getting to know the residents and my mother looks upon them as family as do I. The Care Home is well maintained incredibly clean food is excellent quality. My mother enjoys the many activities that are put on every day. She loves being pampered having her hair and nails done every week.
