Woodstock Residential Care Home Testimonials

I would like to say a massive thank you to you and your team for making mum feel so welcome in her first week being with you at Woodstock Residential Care Home. Mum has been spending time in the lounge, dining room, interacting and socialising, as well as walking with her zimmer so much more than she has done for probably a couple of years. This has been so good to see by her family. You have a truly caring, remarkable team. Thank you again for everything you’ve done for mum.

My mother has been in the Care Home for just over a year. You cannot fault the friendliness, standard of care and support given by all of the staff to the residents and family members. My mum enjoys the meals, but especially the cups of tea. She is settled and well looked after.

Saw mum this morning for an hour just before lunch; she was well dressed, and her hair was done nicely - she looked happy and comfortable. She chatted about how lovely the staff were. Mum always joins in with the activities and enjoys chatting with her ‘neighbours’.

My mum, who has Alzheimer’s, has been at Woodstock for nearly six years now. She has been and is very happy at Woodstock. Everyone at Woodstock has gone out of their way to make mum feel at home. The Care Home Manager is very approachable and does listen. As mum's condition has worsened, staff have adapted their care to suit her needs. As a regular visitor to Woodstock, I feel that I am always welcome, and I appreciate the way that staff keep me in the loop, albeit with regards to the need for mum's shower gel to be replaced or the fact that mum has been seen by the GP. Woodstock is a warm, friendly place to be, with excellent care facilities and enough things going on for everyone to be kept busy if they want to be. I would recommend Woodstock if you are looking for a Care Home for your loved one.

My dear father has been a resident for more than two years now and regards Woodstock as his home. He is treated with loving care and kindness by the wonderful staff. My family and I know that he is safe and secure. The activities are varied. I enjoyed being able to take part in recent Christmas fun! The Home is always decorated in a way that reflects the season or celebration, eg Halloween, Valentine's and Christmas. My father particularly likes the regular church services. I am always made to feel welcome by all the staff, and I appreciate the time they spend listening to any questions or concerns that I may have, whether speaking to me in person or on the telephone.

Mother has been at Woodstock with dementia and is very well looked after. The Home has activities to help her, and the care shown to her by the staff is excellent. Woodstock has entertainment for the residents as well.

Unfortunately my father passed away at Woodstock Residential Care Home in December. My mother and l were made to feel very welcome to stay at the home during his final days, in fact, we actually stayed at his bedside for 5 nights prior to his passing. The care my father received in his final days was exemplary, with kind and caring staff who all showed him compassion and dignity throughout. My mother and l can not praise the staff enough. They also provided us with three meals a day and a constant supply of tea, coffee and cold beverages. Their support for us both was also phenomenal and we will forever be in their debt. My father spent his last year at Woodstock and was extremely happy. Thank you all so very much. My mother has also said if she needs care in the future can she book now.

My mum and I visited Woodstock with a view to respite care in the future. We were met by the Manager who went above and beyond to show us around, answer any questions and put our minds at ease. All employees and residents we spoke to praised the service which was very reassuring.

Tracey H, visitor, October 2023, Woodstock Residential Care Home

My husband is so happy and looked after so well. I am informed of his care. The staff are excellent, and the food is really good, more like a hotel than a care home.

Sheila K, wife of resident, July 2023, Woodstock Residential Care Home

My mother-in-law is always happy and content when I go to visit her, often surrounded by other residents with a trusty cup of tea in hand. Over the years I have known her to be quite nervous and anxious, since living at Woodstock she is no longer that way at all and that's down to the carers supporting and helping her.

Marc R, son-in-law of resident, April 2023, Woodstock Residential Care Home

The carers are exceptional; the care and love provided to my mum is amazing. My mum loves living in this home and has a fun and happy relationship with the carers. They really do everything for my mum's best interest. She is fed so well that I keep having to buy her bigger clothes. Keep up the good work  

Jody T, daughter of resident, April 2023, Woodstock Residential Care Home

Everything about Woodstock Residential Care Home is fantastic. The staff, care given, entertainment, activities and food are amazing. My mum has come out of herself and really enjoys the interaction. Also, the involvement of the families is great. Everyone works together to make sure the resident is well looked after and my mum is!

D M, daughter of resident, April 2023, Woodstock Residential Care Home

Mum has been a resident since February 2023. I attended the Mother's Day afternoon tea with my mum, the food was lovely and the entertainment was extremely good. The staff engaged the residents in dancing and singing which was lovely. My mum even joined in a dance which she wouldn't normally do. It has certainly reassured me that mum is in the best place for her needs.

Anne S, daughter of resident, April 2023, Woodstock Residential Care Home

My mum went in in May 2022 for respite, but has been there since. I have now got a relationship with her, feeling like her daughter. The carers are amazing and they put 100% into the care of the residents. Plenty of interaction and encouragement for family, the BBQs are amazing! So glad my mum is in there. She is safe, warm, well fed and looked after.

Claire T, daughter of resident, February 2023, Woodstock Residential Care Home

We are extremely pleased with Woodstock Residential Care Home. The staff are lovely and the interaction with residents is second-to-none. The building is well-maintained and kept extremely clean. Nothing is ever too much trouble for their residents and visitors. Couldn't have chosen a better home for mum.

Philip G, son of resident, March 2023, Woodstock Residential Care Home

Woodstock Residential Care Home has done and is doing an excellent job of looking after my mum. I feel confident in the knowledge that she is treated with dignity and respect and that her needs are being met. The staff are very good at communicating with me, and I always feel welcomed when I visit mum. Throughout the pandemic, they have kept their doors open, and this has been vital for both me and my mum. Above all else, my mum is happy.
