View Full Details of Cherry Tree Care CentreMum went in October 2024 until February 2025. She had complex medical needs which I felt the Care Home was not set up to deal with. She was their 1st oxygen-dependent resident. The food served was constantly cold and as she became more incontinent she was left in wet clothing and bedding several times which the family found her in. The room was barely cleaned and my family were wiping the tray Mum used as the staff didn't touch it. The shower was constantly unavailable due to no hot water or a broken boiler. The activity staff were hardly seen and many of the activities on the board didn't happen. The family did raise concerns and actions were taken but the general caretaking, keeping Mum clean was a big disappointment and the constant serving of cold food was a disgrace!
Although my mum spent a short time in Cherry Tree Care Centre, I can honestly say that she received exceptional care. The staff are amazing, they engage with the residents and treat them like their own family. The home is clean and tidy and doesn't smell and that is a big thing in my eyes. Care plans were put in place as soon as my mum arrived, she was assessed straight away and they contacted the relevant people to make sure she had the right care and equipment. They looked after my Dad whilst visiting my mum and made sure he was ok at such a difficult time in our lives. Thank you to each and every one of you, I couldn't wish for my mum to be anywhere else.
My family member speaks of a very good experience within this care home during her recent respite stay. Staff are attentive and fast-acting. Plenty of staff at hand which was one of the main points I looked for when looking for my mother-in-law's stay. Food looked lovely and nutritious and any queries I had as a family member were addressed and attended to in a fast and safe manner. Will be recommending to family and friends and will 100% be using this service again for further respite stays.
I have been very impressed by the changes made to Cherry Tree Centre since the new manager came. The new furniture, colours to doors has made such an improvement to the overall atmosphere in the home. The staff appear to be more relaxed and happy since the new manager and I feel that there is a great effort to respond to individual needs and to respect the privacy of individual residents.
The carers are really good with everyone and will help you if you need it. The only problem I have is the turnover of carers. They seem to be one gone and one come every week so it is hard to have good communication with them and at times they seem very thin on the ground.
The staff have always been very helpful towards ourselves. My sister's care is very good and she is extremely happy. The home is always clean and tidy.
Everyone very helpful from the minute you walk in the door. All the staff have made improvements to my mum's wellbeing since her arrival.
My husband seems very happy and settled and I am happy that he is safe and secure and being well looked after.
I found Cherry Tree a nice friendly place, the residents look well cared for and the rooms are clean and tidy.
My mother came to Cherry Tree in September 2017 since then I find the staff extremely helpful and supportive towards my mother, she seems to have settled quite well and although we miss her I know she is in good hands. A big thank you to all the staff for making my mum feel right at home!
A bright, clean care home with pleasant and helpful staff. Home from home atmosphere.
I find the staff very friendly and helpful.
I have been at Cherry Tree Care Centre since June 2017 I moved from another care home.
This is a lovely home with very caring and astute management with carers who go above and beyond expectations to keep mum (who isn't an easy person) happy and contented. I feel totally relaxed knowing mum is warm, looked after and well fed.
As soon as you walk into the foyer you are greeted by happy residents and care staff. The manager is always full of smiles and chatty as is the admin lady. The home is always bright and smells fresh. My mum is happy as larry since she moved. She is happy and she socialises more as its lovely that she can sit in the foyer and interact. I can't praise all the staff enough from the cleaners up to the manager. Thank you Cherry Tree for making my mum's life happy, which in turn makes ours happy too.
Some days I like it and some days I am low and want to go somewhere else.
My mother was apprehensive about needing full-time care but the staff here have been so welcoming and caring to her and to us her family. The meals and afternoon teas are lovely. My mam is safe, secure and happy.
What a special place this is, so happy kind and caring. Mum went into Cherry Tree Care Home for 3 weeks respite starting 13/2/16 and from day one mum was made to feel welcome and at home straight away. The staff are unbelievably caring, kind and very understanding. We as a family can't thank the staff enough, we all felt at ease when we left mum to come home, which when in this situation is hard to find. Mum came home for 10 days and struggled, mum has now returned to the home for more respite which may become permanent. This will now not be a worry for us as she will be returning to her home away from home. A home to be proud of. Thank you everyone.
