Over al Bradbury House Nursing Home provides a safe, comfortable environment for my father. The medical staff are excellent in both keeping on top of his various medical conditions and treatments and in supporting the families member about his health conditions. The care staff all seem to be very friendly and kind and compassionate in taking care of him each day. I would therefore recommend Bradbury House Nursing Home.

I am reassured my mum is getting the best care from Bradbury House. The Team are professional, friendly, attentive and most of all, my mum is so happy there. She has 24 hour care in a home from home environment

Mum was referred into Bradbury House by social services for a care package review. We are happy with the care they offered and hope she will be able to stay. As yet mum hasn't joined in much with activities but hopefully over time she will.

My Mother-in-Law arrived at Bradbury House after a short spell in hospital. Unfortunately she was unable to return home and we had to look for a nursing home. After visiting many homes in and around the area we were lucky to visit Bradbury House and there were vacancies. The team at Bradbury House are professional and caring and go over and above board to ensure residents are well cared for. My Mother-in-Laws birthday was celebrated at Bradbury House with singing and birthday cake which made her day. All food is cooked on site and not bought in. I could go on but a short review is always best as its read. I recommend Bradbury House.

I have found that Bradbury House is a very well-equipped, clean, safe and fully supportive nursing home and has looked after my very elderly father suffering from advanced dementia very well and has adapted to his changing needs. There are staff available to talk to and to assist with any requests made. I would not hesitate to recommend Bradbury House to anyone needing such a facility.

Carers are extremely kind, compassionate and sympathetic to our mum's needs. Nothing is too much trouble and although my mum is not eating, the food is very good. I have heard residents ask for alternatives and these have always been provided if available.

The home offers a safe and comfortable environment for my sister. I have found the staff caring and attentive to her needs. They put significant effort into recognising an individual's needs whilst encouraging them to do what they can for themselves. The staff are very proactive in encouraging my sister to participate in the regular afternoon activities which she mostly enjoys. They understand the challenging needs that dementia can present to a resident and provide care with compassion. The home has always been clean and tidy when I have visited. I feel it offers a very good care model for residents with dementia. I think the home is well-organised and managed with committed members of staff.

The care staff have gone out of their way to make my father feel welcome and involved. The home and bedrooms have a very modern feel to it and is safe and secure in nice, quiet, well-kept surroundings.

At first we were pleasantly surprised with the care my husband was receiving. However, there were a few occasions when I had to ask about personal care especially teeth cleaning was lacking. Unfortunately, my husband was taken into the hospital and was there for 5 weeks. During this time I had no contact from the home enquiring how he was. Then unexpectedly on 30/3/24 my husband passed away. Still no contact expressing condolences. His funeral was held 18/4/24 and 2 night carers attended who I had never met the whole time he was there. (I’m grateful for their attendance but the only reason they knew when the funeral was is because my sister phoned them to inform them) but still no communication from the management, not even a card or phone call. They all knew my husband very well and apparently liked him very much but he had very complex health issues. I am extremely disappointed with the lack of compassion and communication while my husband was in the hospital and when he passed away.

I am very happy with the care given to my mum. I can see that she looks well and the respite has aided her recovery from hospital. My mum has made many friends here and enjoys chatting with everyone. The kindness given to Mum by staff and friends has made her respite more enjoyable. Thank you to all the staff and everyone you are amazing.

We moved my mum to this home last month as we had concerns with the previous care home. We found this home and went to visit and immediately knew this home is where I wanted Mum to be. The staff were friendly and welcoming, the home was modern, clean and just felt right. There a many lovely touches for the residents, each room has its own front door with a knocker on the outside and the communal rooms are great spaces to be. The end-of-life care was also excellent, the staff were warm and caring to the resident and family. My only regret is we didn’t find this home earlier as it is truly outstanding.

My mother moved into Bradbury House in August. It was a pretty traumatic move for her due to her dementia, but the staff understood this and made her feel welcome; they are very understanding. It is taking a bit of time for her to settle, but she is getting there with the help of the staff. The care home is very nice, light and airy, with various sitting areas for the residents, outside space for them to enjoy, with a small woodland walk, two courtyards, and a very nice, friendly feel to it. Highly recommend this care home.

My mum has recently been unwell and now requires full-time nursing care. She has been at Bradbury House for almost 3 weeks and seems to have settled really well and wants to stay. We cannot fault the kindness and care of all the staff here, they are friendly and helpful, with lots of things provided to do. Mum still likes to go out and Bradbury provides a safe environment for her to live the best life she can. Thank you to everyone for making her transition into a nursing home so nice and easy and everyone being so kind to us, I really hope she will be able to stay as I feel she is safe and well cared for.

You need to be certain that your relative has the very best of care. At Bradbury House every single member of staff, without exception, have nothing but the resident's best interests at heart, not just in their role of ‘caring’ but also in the way they engage with them. They are always happy, they will always listen and they will always spend as much time as the resident wants to ensure that they have no causes to worry or be distressed. The facilities are excellent and the activities varied. The overall environment is one of positiveness and happiness. Any concerns or feelings of guilt were quickly extinguished by their attitude to the residents. The question I asked myself constantly is “Is it in my relatives best interest?” In the case of Bradbury House, undoubtedly it is.

Even though I've only been here two weeks, I am very impressed with everything. I'm well looked after by very friendly staff - I feel very comfortable and safe here.

All the staff are very kind to my husband. The additional support has not yet started, however, this is to be done by a community team. The rehabilitation he had been having prior to this, had been really helping him.

Our mum had already experienced respite care at Bradbury House and already as a family, we viewed that as caring and supportive and Mum was always happy there. Consequently, we considered Bradbury House without any hesitation for respite again this August, with a view to settling our dear mum there for long-term consideration. Once again, she settled promptly, was relaxed, less anxious, smiling and happy whenever any family members visited. The staff warmly introduce themselves, commenting on her progress without hesitation. We are delighted! Again!

Mum came to Bradbury House to convalesce after several months in hospital. Everyone we have dealt with has been very helpful and welcoming; Mum has been well looked after and treated with kindness and respect. That there is an on-site nurse has given us an additional sense of reassurance about her care during her stay.

Beautiful building and interior, staff very kind and helpful and understanding. Always ready to help.
