I cannot express the care home and staff enough for the excellent care of my mum, from the first time I contacted the care home the outstanding level of service was excellent. My mum was a bit apprehensive as this was the first time for her for restpite but all her worries soon went away. In fact she thought she was staying another week. I would definitely recommend April Park for the homely feel and professionally as I found it outstanding. Thank you

I spend more time than the staff here and see how much they care. April Park is a very caring home and all the staff are well-trained on how to handle any situation and do their jobs. The home is well kept, clean, tidy, and the residents have plenty of entertainment.

It's never an easy decision to place a parent into care, but my father is happy to be at April Park. He speaks highly of the staff and describes them as friends. Whenever there have been any issues, such as falls or anything trivial, April Park keep me informed and my father safeguarded. The entertainment/activities keep his mind active too, and he really enjoys them. The staff are all friendly to my family, also.

My mum is a full-time resident at April Park Care Home in Sheffield, and I couldn't be happier with the care she's receiving. The staff have been incredibly supportive in helping her settle in, and she's really benefitted from the regular interaction with both the team and other residents. The home offers a wide range of facilities and activities, which keep her engaged and active. The staff are not only caring and knowledgeable but also very approachable and easy to talk to. It's clear that the home is run by a strong, attentive management team who prioritise resident wellbeing. Most importantly, I feel confident that my mum is being treated with dignity and respect, in a safe and secure environment that I, unfortunately, could no longer provide myself. Knowing she's in such good hands brings me great peace of mind. Thank you to everyone at April Park for the outstanding care and support!

The care home is very welcoming and homely. All staff approachable and friendly, the care home is always spotlessly clean and meals could not be better. The staff make sure the residents needs are catered for at all times and make time to talk to them even when extremely busy.

I have been visiting a family member for almost two years. The staff are very friendly but professional. They cope really well with all the varying needs of the residents, giving them patience, dignity and caring. They answer any queries quickly and efficiently. There are always activities for residents to enjoy including visitors. I trust them implicitly with my family member and am so grateful to them for their excellent care and skills.

My mum has been a resident for 6 weeks. I have found the home to be a welcoming and friendly environment and the staff to be kind compassionate and supportive throughout this period which can be a difficult and challenging time for an elderly person.

My mum has just finished 6 weeks of respite at April Park and it's been lovely. From the home Manager, Deputy Manager and all the carers have been amazing and very caring. My mum loved it and was upset to leave. An absolute lovely place
16 January 2025
We feel that Dad's needs are met and that all the staff are very professional, with a very caring and understanding nature. The staff are thorough with his personal hygiene and well being. We are confident that if there are any issues these are addressed as soon as possible when needed. Thanking all staff and management.

My wife and I cannot praise or recommend April Park Care Home highly enough for the kind, considerate and professional way all the staff cared for my mum for the eight months she was there before passing away from vascular dementia recently. It was a huge 'peace of mind' for us in her most difficult times. We were also treated with friendliness and understanding and nothing was too much trouble for them every time we visited Mum. If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Thank you all so much.
16 May 2024
I cannot praise the staff of April Park enough as they are a credit to the care home. They are all friendly and treat the residents with respect and dignity. The communication throughout has been excellent. My mum has always felt safe and secure throughout her stay. I would not hesitate to recommend April Park and should Mum need residential care in the future this will be our first choice. Keep up the excellent work.

Lovely care home. Very friendly staff. Mum seems to be very settled. Great for information on what's happening each day. Mum loves the food. We feel more settled knowing she is being cared for in a lovely home.
05 June 2023
My mother is as happy as can be expected as there's a lot she can't do because of her immobility and declining eyesight. She says the food is good and gets on very well with the carers who are friendly and chatty. Her room is always clean and tidy. The care and support is good.

This is the second month that my father has been a guest at April Park and I have nothing but praise for all the staff at the home. Dad has always said that he would never go into a home but right from the beginning of his stay he has been delighted with the accommodation, food and staff and says that he now does not want to leave. Thanks to all for such a wonderful experience he is having.

I would just like to say a thank you to the manager and the staff at April Park, Eckington. My mum was in April Park for a week in April for respite care. Although mentally mum is ok she does have mobility issues, she is 93 and very frail. As I was going away for a week and could not leave mum by herself, April Park was a godsend. I was able to go away without worrying. Thank you once again to everyone.

My mum was a resident at April Park for many years. Like many residents, Mum had various illnesses and medical episodes during her stay. In the early days, Mum was assessed several times by social care, experts and this proved to be a horrendous period for both Mum and the rest of the family. At this time, staff at April Park stood up for Mum and the family to help gain the best care plan for her, they did this without any drama, just lots of love and care for her. During her stay, she like many had to deal with the ups and downs of the pandemic. Again, the staff stepped up, provided for Mum (as they did for all the residents) and showed genuine love for her all the way through, as if this was their own mum. The staff provided so much love and care for Mum, words could not say the degree of gratitude we have for them. Sadly Mum passed away in late February, the last few days and until Mum passed, the staff continued in the same way. Mum is now at peace.
03 May 2022
My mum has been a resident at April Park since before Christmas 2021, but has settled in well and is quite happy with her new surroundings, she loves all the staff who are kind, helpful and friendly. The manager goes above and beyond to make sure residents and family members are happy and put at ease.
03 May 2022
I’ve written excellent reviews previously about April Park Care Home relating to the care of my mum. However this review is particularly sad to write. My mum lived at April Park in excess of 3.5 years and throughout that time received remarkable care, however unfortunately my mum passed away on 27 February. April Park supported my stay at the home and help provide care for my mum in her last days and they looked after me as much as my mum, it was like being with family, they clearly felt our sadness and pain. The compassion, care and dignity they provided at such a difficult time was second to none. The team are led by a fantastic manager who is professional yet so caring. We have always found the current manager approachable and accommodating and she leads a fabulous team of wonderful genuinely caring people. The home is clean and the resident's comfort and well-being is always their main objective. Words will never be able to express how we feel about April Park and the staff.
