Acorn House Care Home

from Keith O (Brother of Resident) published on 17 March 2025
Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

My sister was diagnosed with dementia a few years ago, and despite this, she was able to life in her own property until the dementia became more difficult to handle. After a period with carers visiting twice daily, it was decided that a suitable Care Home should be sought.
Having been born in Nottingham,
and spending most of her life in the city, we decided to look for somewhere local to her.
Thankfully, we were recommended to pay a visit to Acorn House, and after tour by welcoming staff, we put Acorn at the top of our list.
We visited a few other Homes, although non came anywhere near to offering the care and facilities that Acorn did, so we began arrangements for her to move in.
Initially, she was offered a room on the floor that accommodated the more serious cases of dementia, which she found difficult. Very soon though, Acorn offered her a room on another floor where she quickly made friends, and became more settled.
Thank you Acorn, you guys are great.

I just wanted to say how amazing you all are. My Dad moved into Acorn House about a year and a half ago and you have worked so hard to make it feel like home, as you do for all of the residents. You are all so welcoming; from the reception, cleaning and catering staff to the carers and managers. The
unsung heroes are always the night staff who I rarely get to meet but keep my dad safe at night and of course the maintenance man!
Dad isn't that keen on joining in with the many varied activities that you provide but you always do your best to include him. Communication is key to any successful organisation and your approach to this is second to none!
It's never an easy decision to move a loved one into a care home but it has given me and my dad a chance to be Dad and daughter again and not carer and patient and I will forever appreciate this!
You are all winners to me! With love and appreciation.

Whenever I visit my Grandad at Acorn House, the home is always clean and welcoming. He always looks smart and well cared for. There is always plenty of staff around to help him and look after him. He seems very happy and he likes to join in the activities. He goes out to the local cafe and on the bus
with some of the activity staff, which he enjoys. I am happy to recommend this home.

Thank you for your lovely comments. We ensure that everyone has a very enjoyable stay and we are so pleased that your grandad has settled in so well. I will ensure that these comments are shared with the staff team.

After an accident at home and being hospitalised my brother was admitted to Acorn House where he has been for almost three years. He settled in well due to the staff being so caring and friendly.
There are plenty of activities, days out, and entertainers in the home.
The home is always spotlessly
clean which makes it very welcoming for visitors.
I would highly recommend this care home.

Overall we are pleased with the care. The staff seem caring and know and understand residents. I notice that the home is very busy and sometimes I wonder if this means details may be missed, such as the cleaning of dentures.
The activities provided are excellent and a good way to keep people engaged,
it would be good if there was more conversation throughout the day, but I appreciate this is difficult when staff are so busy.

Acorn House Care Home is a well-run care home with many good aspects to recommend it. The staff are caring and considerate towards the residents who benefit from a varied menu and entertaining activities as appropriate. However, the needs of residents with dementia and multiple complex needs would be
better met by improved/higher staffing levels (i.e. at least one above the legal minimum at all times).

My mom has been at Acorn House for a few years now. She loves this place so much. My dad was here too when Acorn House first opened and was one of the first residents. Acorn House has been a great place to be for the care the support value for money and always kept clean and tidy. Mom never complains
about the assortment of food given at all meal times. The management and staff are first class.
