My husband has been a resident at Woodview House for nearly four months now and I cannot praise all the staff enough for his care, they all work together to provide an excellent quality of care. He is not the easiest person to look after but the staff always show patience and understanding even
during challenging circumstances. Woodview House welcomes family and friends and the atmosphere is calm but inviting. Many different activities and entertainment are provided and residents are encouraged to listen, watch or participate. The highlight of the day from my husband's point of view has to be the meals which are varied but always good quality. I would like thank them all from the bottom of my heart.

My mother is a recent resident at woodview house after getting diagnosed with dementia which came on rapidly in the last six months, she was being cared for at harvest view for 5 months (was meant to be 6 weeks) as she is at end of life.. my mother is still going strong but I was told she also
requires 24 hour care... After 2 months now I can't praise enough with how fantastic all the staff have been through this traumatising time.. the help they gave my mother is above and beyond. The staff have interacted with her, read to her, even watch the TV with her as she's bedbound.
In the last 6 weeks she sadly can't respond well anymore but I know she is always well looked after. I have regular up dates on her well being, which takes the stress and worry away.
Don't let the age of this building fool you, this team is very trustworthy and building well maintained, I actually like it's hidden away also it's a really great location to visit.

My dear mom has been a resident at Woodview House for over 2 years now and cannot rate it highly enough. From The Manager, to the fantastic team caring for my mom on a daily basis, the care they have given her has been second to none. The physical and mental support they give her along with the fact
that I feel relieved that she is truly being cared for when I am not there is priceless.

Mom has been in this home for almost 3 years now, she is very well looked after, always kept entertained (as there are games being played or entertainment on) and she is also well fed (having seen the meals brought out to her). All levels of staff are always helpful, polite, knowledgeable and jovial
- a reflection of the home itself.

Excellent staff always friendly and more than happy to answer any questions we have.
My dad is always clean and well-presented with no concerns from me.
Meals are great, always with a different variety and always encouraged to eat and drink.
I wouldn't want my dad to be anywhere else he's so
cared for by all staff and they know exactly how to handle him.

As a family, we are extremely grateful for the outstanding care and support given to our loved one and also to us. Each member of staff provides loving care and attention to all the resident's needs in sometimes very challenging circumstances. Nothing is too much trouble, and there is always a room
full of happy faces; it’s a great atmosphere.
Good food, extremely clean and well cared for residents.

This home has been amazing for my mum. Unfortunately, she was diagnosed with Lewy bodies dementia in January 2022, and it came on so quickly and due to her challenging behaviour she was sectioned in April 2022. We then had to find a home for my mum as we knew she was never going to be able to return
home.
We straight away understood that not many nursing homes would look after mum because of her complex needs and behaviour, but once we found Wood View we knew it was perfect for mum.
Yes, it doesn’t look like the most modern home, but it’s the care that is important.
The staff are wonderful and caring and really encouraging with mum to get her out of bed. She was really happy there, but unfortunately, her illness progressed very quickly and she was bedbound, she was admitted to the hospital where she, unfortunately, died a week later in October 2023.
My mum had nearly a year at Wood View and during that time I never worried about the care she was given, thank you so much.

My mother has been at Woodview for a few years now and it's a place where I feel like I don't have to keep going to check she's being looked after and treated right.
Over the years I've noticed the one-to-one interaction with Mom and the people that work there, they always seem to get her smiling
which is hard these days with how advanced her dementia is.
I really trust them with Mom's care and wouldn't want her to be anywhere else.

My wife has been in Woodview House Nursing Home for several years now. Whilst the care for her has been satisfactory more recently there has been a noticeable improvement in the overall quality. This includes stability of staff, staff teamwork, activities and camaraderie too. Creating a friendly
caring atmosphere and above all an improvement in my wife's happiness. Our family are grateful. Thank you so much.

My mother has been a resident of Woodview for over six years. It is the staff that make a difference and they have cared for my mother and made her as comfortable as possible. This has not been easy with her having a form of dementia, which can make her behaviour aggressive and verbal at times.
Learning the best way to approach and make her feel calm is a skill and many staff rise to the challenge. The team take it in their stride and understand the difficulties of the illness. Overall, we are pleased with the service and happy to see recently there is a big push on staff training and improvements planned for the home. This is a home that can make a difference to our loved ones when battling with an illness. Keep up the good work to make the home even better!

Absolutely the best loving care that you could wish for. Even when my dad displays challenging behaviour the staff show love, care and compassion at all times. Very high standard of care for every resident. The most dedicated team of staff from the person who washes the clothes, cleans the rooms,
cares for residents right up to the management. Everyone works closely together and this is evident at every visit. I am blessed to have my father receiving such wonderful care, especially during this recent lockdown. I cannot praise this home highly enough. A sincere thank you to everyone who works there.
