Review from L Y (Daughter of Resident) published on 4 September 2018

Overall Experience

My mother came to The Old Rectory Care Home almost 3 years ago with Parkinson's, needing 24hour care. She loved her own home and was sad to lose her independence. In no time at all, the smiles, the safe, respectful and gentle care she received made her feel much-loved and happy. Mum made genuine, loving

friendships; they laughed and cried together through the hardest of times. Mum became utterly dependent. The gentle care she received helped her to maintain her dignity right through to her last moments and being laid to rest. I cannot express my gratitude for the professional care and love my mum received during some of the most challenging and yet happiest days of her life. The beautiful house and grounds were scrupulously clean; the food delicious and plentiful. The manager is exceptional - listening to our fears and concerns, she actively sought to help my mother. The carers are equally exceptional, they have integrity, skills and the commitment to do their best. I know they welcome and learn from regular training. At the end of mum's life, their care for me personally made the impossible bearable. I remain forever grateful to each one.

Overall Experience

My aunt has been a resident here for almost 4 years. She is extremely well cared for and is very happy. The ambience of the whole place is that of a Four star hotel with beautiful furnishings and white table linen and fresh flowers on the tables in the dining room. The food is excellent and we always

have lunch with my aunt whenever we visit. The staff are brilliant...over the years we have got to know them very well and we are always made to feel very welcome. They always have time for a chat and a joke and it feels more like a large family gathering than a care home! There are plenty of opportunities for weekly outings and special events are arranged at Christmas and various other times during the year. One worth a mention is the family day set up to coincide with the Cosford Air show which includes a hog roast and a host of other goodies and is used to raise funds for the outings etc.
The Old Rectory Care Home is just excellent.....I cannot recommend it highly enough!

Could not fault service for two years of care for my wife. Staff happy, food good. It's like a country hotel. Also used myself for respite this year.

Overall Experience

A very welcoming, clean, well-maintained home, with caring considerate, and friendly staff who put the resident's welfare first. Food is excellent, as are the varied activities. Residents are encouraged to bring personal items from home, which help them to feel more settled. Equipment for use with the

elderly is excellent, and additional care ie. personal outings is also available. There is a wonderful ambience in all areas of the home, allowing a happy, peaceful and caring stay for all residents.

Overall Experience

I am made very welcome as I sign in by both the receptionist and any passing nurses or carers. Mum is usually in the dining room when I arrive where all her needs - physical and dietary requirements - are met. The rooms are maintained to a very high standard where residents are able to put their personal

touches to make it seem like home. Carers arrive quickly, treating mum in a sensitive and caring fashion. The manager and her family are very hands-on, ensuring a large family environment.

Overall Experience

Every time I visit my friend it's always the same. Spotlessly clean. Always friendly staff and the residents love it there. Great sitting in the garden on good days. Meeting other residents. Good taking my little dog too. If I ever need care in my older age I would love to be in here.

Overall Experience

The Old Rectory Care Home has cared for my mother age 102 since she fell at home and broke her hip 3 years ago. They have shown her great kindness and the staff always find the time to chat and joke with her, as well as looking after her every need.
We cannot speak highly enough of The Old Rectory

Care Home, it really is a home from home.

Review from Brian T (Brother of Resident) published on 8 September 2016

Overall Experience

My brother suffered a severe stroke in march 2016 and after spending many weeks in hospital he was moved to The Old Rectory Care Home on May 18th, 2016. The family spent considerable time visiting various nursing homes in both Staffordshire and Shropshire and after receiving a number of excellent recommendations

we chose The Old Rectory. The staff have been extremely caring and understanding to my brother's situation and it was a great relief to the family to see that he quickly settled to his new environment without fuss. Despite having no speech or use of his right arm or leg, he is having encouraging results.

Overall Experience

The owners are very caring and certainly the right people to work with the elderly. They keep a very high standard, employ extremely professional staff and all are treated with dignity. The home has a superb atmosphere. Residents needs are always taken into consideration and fulfilled. All in all this

home is a very happy place to live.

Overall Experience

The manager and her staff have been a revelation to us all. My mother-in-law had spent eight months in another home which was more expensive she never felt settled or safe neither did we. The past twelve months at the rectory have been wonderful. She is happy stimulated and feels so safe and cared for.

This is her home and we cannot praise it highly enough. The care is exemplary the staff are so patient and kind, nothing is too much trouble. The food is fabulous, cleaning standards excellent. The décor furnishings and grounds are what we would expect in a boutique country hotel. Thank you all we only have praise for this wonderful home.

Overall Experience

We feel very fortunate to have such an extremely food care home, almost on our doorstep to care for my 101 year old mother-in-law. The care home is not too large to become impersonal. It is very well run by the extremely professional proprietor and her family. Mum-in-law is very contented well fed and

constantly cared for. We cannot thank the excellent staff enough for their kindness and consideration that they show her.
