What others say about Wordsworth House Care Home

Wordsworth House Care Centre

Stephanie P (Granddaughter of Resident)

"My nanna was in Wordsworth House for 3 years until she passed away in November 2016. I could not ask for more from the staff. They treated my nan with dignity at all times. They went above and beyond the care needed and many times just sat with her when she was frightened. Wordsworth House staff, management and even the maintenance man became part of our extended family. God bless!""My nanna was in Wordsworth House for 3 years until she passed away in November 2016.

"My mother lived in the care home for three and a half years, then passed away. We have no complaints at all. The staff were most caring and showed respect and privacy when needed."

Margery L (Daughter of Resident)

"My father was placed into care in December 2017. It has been a distressing time for our family. The positive in all of this has been the support and care from the team at Wordsworth House. From the manager, deputy manager, care workers, catering team and the wonderful maintenance man, our experience has been overwhelmingly positive. They have taken every step to help Dad settle in and have provided support and reassurance to our whole family. It has helped us all to cope with a major change in our lives and we are grateful to all at Wordsworth House for the fantastic job they do."

Carol T (Daughter of Resident)

"My mother has advanced Alzheimer's and was placed at Wordsworth House for 2 weeks respite whilst my father, her full-time carer, dealt with his own medical issues. At the conclusion of the respite, the family decided to make my mother's place permanent. She settled in well, the staff give her friendly, personal and professional care. The staff are always welcoming when the family visit, ready to update us with my mother's well being. They are always on hand to ensure my mother's dignity and well being are looked after. A truly friendly, caring, professional environment."

June F (Friend of Resident)

"When a neighbour was told she would have to go into a residential home she was very reluctant and upset about the decision. After a stay in hospital she arrived at the house and settled very well and enjoyed her stay, she never mentioned her own home or wanting to return there. The staff are very friendly and helpful, she made friends with them all. When after a short stay she passed away, we went to tidy the room and the help we received was wonderful, we were invited to the Christmas Party."
