Always a difficult decision to trust your loved one into someone's else's care but Will at Wandsworth Common Care Home helped make this decision easy. My husband needed respite care and we looked at many different care home but immediately on entering WCCH we felt at home. It has a warm, welcoming atmosphere like a lovely hotel. The staff were kind and personable immediately and my husband relaxed because it didn't feel like he was a patient but a welcomed guest. During his two week stay he was looked after like royalty, so many different activities socialising with the other residents. Any opportunity for a get together of which there were many. Although initially I felt it hard to relax I was reassured by the immediate response to my emails which enabled me to enjoy my break. I will not pretend it's easy but I know I need to look after my own health and finding care for my husband that I can trust has enabled me to plan ahead for regular breaks for myself. Thank you WCCH c u soon

My mother moved into Avery in November and her memory and faculties are deteriorating. She us having excellent care at Wandsworth, the staff are patient, understanding and respectful at all times and trained well in managing residents expectations and changing moods. The home is nicely decorated and the surroundings comfortable and welcoming.

My aunt spent 16 months in the care home and was very happy there. The standard of care and attention were very good. I was also impressed with the totality of the offering.

Avery Wandsworh was a lifesaver. My father was ill and hospitalised while visiting us from abroad and he couldn't fly back. They were extremely helpful and accommodating in a very stressful time for the family. From the nurse visit to do the assessment, to the daily day-to-day activities, they took great care and encouraged my father back to health and for him to be able to fly back. They welcomed my mum and my whole family to the home.

Very good experience for first time in care home.

My mother has been at the Avery Wandsworth Common Care Home as a resident since May of this year. The home is beautifully decorated, tasteful and very clean and her spacious apartment far exceeded my expectations. The entire process of moving my mother in and ensuring that she settled quickly was seamless. I have yet to meet a member of staff there who isn't extremely attentive, kind, patient and good-humoured. The lines of communication are always open and I know my mother is in excellent hands. It is a huge relief that we have found somewhere so wonderful for her.

I came to visit an old friend and this was my first visit to the home. As soon as I entered the building, I became aware of a gentle calmness and a welcoming spirit of quiet efficiency. The reception staff could not have been more helpful and kinder. On arrival at the resident's room, all of the care staff on duty that I met over two hours were anxious to ensure that I was comfortable and not upset by how my friend's appearance had changed over the last few months: this is the mark of high-quality care and concern for visitors' well being. That level of care and thoughtfulness is standard. The resident's dignity is a real priority at all times and frequent visits at regular intervals is testament to this. Nothing was hurried and my friend's wellbeing was paramount. I left the home with a lightness of heart and in the certain knowledge that the highest level of care was being taken. Thank you to the whole team.

We attended the funeral reception of a friend at Wandsworth Common Care Home. The manager was such a lovely young man in how he welcomed everyone, poured drinks and ensured we were all okay. The carer was also in attendance so charming and friendly. The staff on reception provided a warm welcome and suggested we use the underground car park. The care home was wonderful, clean and had a great location.

Change from a previous provider to Avery, pretty smooth. My brother has been very well cared for. The move from basic care to dementia was very well maintained. The care staff are excellent. Sad that they are not paid for their full time at the home and that meal breaks are not included in their hours worked.

Wandsworth Common Avery have been extremely helpful and considerate in helping during my late father's illness and recent death including organising a reception/wake after the funeral held at the adjacent church of St Mary's. All the team at Avery have been so very attentive and helpful.

I chose to stay at the Avery Wandsworth Common Care Home following a complex knee replacement surgery. I needed a week of recovery in safety and comfort to practise my physiotherapy and found exactly that at this care home. The greatest asset of this establishment is the staff. From management all the way to the catering team, they are attentive to your every need. No one crosses you without acknowledging you by your name and looking out for you. The general standard of comfort is excellent as are the facilities such as the spa bath and even a cinema! All meals are served in a very comfortable restaurant from an a la carte menu of delicious food cooked in-house. Whilst it is primarily a care home for an older generation it is an ideal destination for post-operative surgery rest whatever age you are. Within a short walk of Wandsworth Common and excellent public transport nearby, there is a lovely feeling of freedom both for guests and visitors.

The care home staff organised a birthday celebration for my mother today (25 May), who is 95 years old. The party took place in their private dining room and they took me through first to be sure that I was happy with everything they had done. I walked into the room and I was literally speechless for a moment. It all looked absolutely stunning! It was all so beautiful, it took me a moment to take it all in. There were beautiful platters of food and gorgeous decorations everywhere. I'm not allowed to mention names apparently, but the Chef made a fantastic cake for my mum with her name on it and the Catering Manager did a wonderful job of setting out all the beautiful food and drinks with the help of the Food and Beverage supervisor and some of the team. We were all totally thrilled with the occasion and I can't thank the wonderful staff enough for all they did for us. All the staff are genuinely very kind and caring and work so hard to ensure everybody's happiness and well-being.

The care home is beautiful and offers great food and activities for residents. The package for residents includes everything you would want from a care home and more. All staff were professional, friendly and caring and regularly kept me updated on my mother's situation which I am grateful for. Thank you all.

Visited my uncle for the first time. Immediately on entry, the facilities were welcoming, clean and spacious. The staff greeted us with a smile and escorted us to the correct room. The room was comfortable with an en-suite and facility to make himself a drink and snack. The room had been made to be homely and had lots of photos and mementos. He seemed very happy and settled. Thank you.

I have been visiting my dear cousins since they moved to the home in December 2022 and I am always so impressed by the staff who are so kind and patient with them. They both have particular needs and are well cared for. I always turn up unannounced and never find anything other than a calm and professional, yet caring home. Thank you for caring for them both so well, it makes this difficult stage a little easier to bear.

I visited my friend who is a guest at the rest house. I am an architect, this is a perfect example of how to create a relaxing comfortable environment for guests. Well done. And great decor and great fun staff.
22 February 2024
The whole care package has been excellent. The staff at every level were kind, caring and extremely helpful. I will thoroughly recommend this care home in every way.
16 February 2024
I spent 2 1/2 weeks here after being in hospital with pneumonia and a broken pelvis. My rooms were like a suite in a five-star hotel. The food was delicious like a hotel restaurant. I enjoyed physio with the physio who came in twice a week so that when I left I was able to climb stairs easily. There was a resident hairdresser. I was also able to have regular baths in a wonderful bath. Thank you for an excellent stay and transition from hospital to home.
