From the initial contact with the home to mum moving in, I cannot fault the care and dedication they have shown to me and mum. The staff are very friendly and show genuine concern for mum. Cannot praise them enough.

The care shown to my Aunty Doreen in her final days was second to none. Staff treated my aunt with love, care, humour and dignity. As well as being so supportive to our family.
My Aunt was extremely well cared for from housekeeping, catering, nursing and care plans. Her views were paramount and
listened to. An extra special mention to Mona who was an angel in our time of sorrow, she did take my place as I dashed across the county to be by her side. I will be forever grateful. Nursing/ palliative care will treat your loved one like family. I can assure you of that - I have high standards and these were met. 5 stars
Thank you all from the bottom of my heart.

When my brother and I first visited Watermead Rose in April 2025 on our search for a suitable care home for our elderly mother who has extremely limited mobility, we were both impressed by the vibe, the cleanliness, the quality and layout of the bedrooms and social areas, and, in particular, the
friendliness and helpfulness of all the staff we met.
This continues to be the case over the eight months since our mother became a resident.
The staff are looking after her health and well-being in exemplary caring and patient fashion. We specifically wanted a care home with nursing provision, and the nursing team are proactive and keep us updated on her needs and the steps taken to meet them, including arranging visits from GPs, chiropodists and appointments at the on-site hairdressing salon. The food always looks delicious and there is a busy activities schedule.

Beautiful home, more like a hotel. Came to see my wife's aunty who is currently a resident at Watermead Rose. Very friendly staff who can't do enough for you. Very clean and welcoming with plenty to do, from a cinema to a cafe, would highly recommend.

My aunt is staying at the home on respite. It's wonderful to see her smiling and having her hair done by the hairstylist. The staff are wonderful and welcoming. I will be forever grateful. Thank you to the whole team for helping our family through this difficult time.

Since my mum has moved to Watermead Rose care home she is a different person and this down to the care and attention she get from all the staff. I call them Miracle Workers as she has just had shingles/a seizure and it was dealt this very swiftly by everyone. The location of the care home is
excellent as Watermead Park is very close by and when time.weather permits we visit as often as we can. The whole package of being in Watermead Rose Care Home is excellent.

My dad was at Watermead Rose Care Home for 3 weeks respite following his knee operation. All the staff have been very kind, caring and have tended to all of dad's needs as and when needed. He has enjoyed his stay and the care he received.The care home even helped make arrangements for my dad to be
brought to my daughters wedding with a carer, which meant a lot to me, my daughter and to dad.Thank you!

My mother was admitted due to end-of-life care. Over her 3 months' stay, the visiting family were made to feel welcome at all times/any time of the day. All the staff always acknowledged your presence with a warm smile, giving a welcoming atmosphere. The management were equally pleasant with an
open-door policy for any queries/issues. Regular updates on my mother's condition were forthcoming.
Two improvements: 1) Staff sometimes need reminding of care duties, 2) Premises are lacking air conditioning in rooms, some of which can get very hot in summer.

Brought both my parents in for a 2 week respite following my father's fall, nothing was too much trouble to look after them, and what a difference it made after a good rest and good food. Hope they decide to stay.
29 October 2025
I had a three-week short break, during which time I was welcomed and supported by everyone. Unfortunately, some of my underwear went missing when it went for laundry, but it meant I could have some new items, so a blessing in disguise. I would stay at Watermead again.
27 October 2025
Although my mum was only with you for 5 weeks. The care and attention given to her was outstanding. Every effort was made to include her in the activities and make her comfortable in her final days. We would definitely recommend Watermead Rose Nursing Home to anyone who was interested.

Best thing I ever did moving my dad here, gets the best care possible. Staff members go above and beyond.

A care home that feels like a home! This care home gave my mum a comfortable home-from-home experience for the last five weeks of her life. All of the staff from management to carers, receptionists, activity staff, cooks, cleaners and maintenance are all fantastic. Would definitely recommend.

My mother has been in Watermead Rose for 3 months now. The way she was when she came here to how she is now are worlds apart, for the better for my mother. The care she gets and how she is treated are brilliant here.
02 October 2025
We are so thankful to all the staff at Watermead Rose. From the moment we walked through the doors, we felt a sense of warmth and genuine care. The team treat residents with kindness, dignity, and respect, and it is clear that they go above and beyond every single day.
My mum is so well looked
after here - her needs are met with patience and compassion, and she is always encouraged to join in and feel part of the home's community. The staff not only provide excellent personal care, but they also take the time to really get to know her, which makes such a difference.
The home itself is welcoming, clean, and has a lovely family feel. The meals are thoughtful and nutritious, and the activities are engaging and tailored to different abilities and interests. Most importantly, we have complete peace of mind knowing that mum is safe, happy, and valued.
Thank you to everyone at Watermead Rose for the outstanding care and support you give - it means the world to us.
