Without a doubt my mum was looked after very well. Her food was excellent and she was always clean and washed. Her room was kept clean and tidy and she was very happy. The staff were always friendly and helpful and always on hand to help with any questions regarding my mums health. They were always happy to assist with anything. I cannot fault anything throughout her lengthy care at the home. It was always a welcoming atmosphere to visit.

The care home is looking after my uncle very well and all staff are very friendly and keep him safe from Covid and he seems very happy, he’s never negative about it in any way. He does enjoy his food and I always ask him if he’s being looked after and he says yes they’re very good.

My dad initially came to Deansfield in August 2023 for respite. Dad has now become a permanent resident due to his wife passing away in November 2023. Dad has dementia so finding somewhere to suit his needs was imperative and I feel that Deansfield Care Home is just perfect for him. Dad has his care needs fully met and I am very happy with the care staff and management and feel it is run to a very high standard. When I telephone or visit Dad I am always made to feel welcome and I know they take care of Dad in a lovely caring way. I like the communication I receive too and I'm always kept up to date with any changes and if Dad needs anything to be brought in. I have always liked the fact that it's a small care home and the carers take the time to get to know all the residents on a personal basis.

My mother has been a resident at Deansfield for around 3 years. We chose it as it has a much more homely and personal atmosphere compared with other homes who often refer to having units rather than rooms. Staff are friendly, caring and patient and everyone from care, to the kitchen, housekeeping and maintenance all work hard to make a home from home for the residents. We are reassured that my mother is safe and receiving good care.

I have no hesitation in recommending Deansfield to anyone looking for the best possible care for their loved ones.

I write this review to say how highly I think and feel of the warm homely atmosphere of Deansfield. My Mum is being looked after with love and care and attention she needs with her dementia. Pauline has been fantastic from day one she is so caring and professional. Mum thinks world of one staff member who is so helpful. The team there and the owner reflect a high standard of care as they really show they want Deansfield to be a home for residents at their special time in their lives. I feel at ease knowing Mum is in a special place being taken care of properly and securely.

I visited Deansfield looking for a care home for my mum who is diagnosed with mixed dementia. I immediately loved the rural setting. I was welcomed warmly by the staff and it felt like home from home instantly. I observed how kind and gentle the staff were with the residents and noted the happy atmosphere, with residents having a sing-song together in the lounge. I was impressed with the homely atmosphere and the staff's interaction with residents. They appeared to know the resident's individual needs and offered tea and mid-afternoon snacks. I was shown the bedrooms which were clean and well-furnished. No en suites but several toilets and bathrooms available. I viewed many care homes in the Shropshire/Telford area and decided Deansfield was my first choice for my mum due to the smaller, more family feel that it offered and the opportunities for my mum to do gardening, and experience nature.

Dad spent the last eight months of his life at Deansfield, having lived with mixed dementia and gradually deteriorated over five years. He started by going twice per week for respite and then became a full-time resident. Throughout this, he was superbly cared for by the Deansfield team who were unfailingly kind, efficient and loving. The family feeling and cheerful atmosphere suited him perfectly. As he came to the end of his life, he felt safe and secure. A wonderful place!

I found Deansfield when I was helping my Mother find a suitable care home for my father, who was needing full-time care for dementia. My father began going on a daycare basis and then moved to full-time residential care in 2020. Everyone there has been superb, from the manager/owner to the carers, to the kitchen team. They take pride in looking after their residents, with real love and care. The home is as homely as it could be and everyone is treated with patience and dignity. A huge thank you Deansfield.

I have never been in such a well-run and pleasant home. As soon as you walk in it just feels like stepping into your own home. Staff cannot do enough for you and treat the residents like they are their own flesh and blood. It's a wonderful place.
