"Mum has been at Overslade for over a year. Although I couldn't see her until March 2021, I felt she was safe and well cared for. Mum's room is clean, comfortable and homely. She enjoys the food and eats well. This is the first place she's been, including 2 hospitals, where her weight and general wellbeing have improved rather than deteriorated. There are staff members who she's become very fond of and who are loving towards her. I'm grateful to Overslade for their care and commitment during the pandemic. It was our good fortune that Mum was transferred there from hospital."

"Overslade House is the third nursing care home my mother has been in over the last 6 years, so I have experience of nursing home care and I can honestly tell you that the past three years since my Mum has been in Overslade House have been the best and she has been far happier and well cared for. My mother suffers from Lewy body dementia and many other medical issues and the care provided has really been excellent. They have nursed her through pneumonia and many other ailments with tender care and attention. I would certainly recommend Overslade House care home to others. Although, since COVID I have only been able to visit my mother in the 'Pod' they have made it possible. Prior to that when we were allowed to visit they always made me feel welcome and involved me in her care, keeping me updated at all times. The manager is really exceptional and is always available to talk when you need to discuss any issue. The staff are also incredible and they are always happy to support."

"My aunt was a resident at Overslade for 7 months from December 2019 to July 2020. When admitted she was made to feel very welcome and immediately felt at home in her lovely room within the quieter nursing unit. At all times during her stay, she was treated with great care and kindness whilst allowing her to remain as independent as possible whilst her health (both physical and dementia) deteriorated. During this difficult time of the COVID-19 pandemic the staff and management continued to uphold the values and high standards of care. Many thanks to the nursing and care staff who provided loving, caring and professional end of life care."

"My mum recently took very ill, and we were allowed to see her. Along with the paramedics and nursing staff, we made the difficult decision for Mum to be end of life nursed at the home. I cannot thank the staff on duty that day enough - the kindness shown to the family, and most of all Mum, was incredible. The particular kindness from a member of staff as I left (due to C19 visiting quota), was incredible. She went above and beyond to comfort me and offer support, and I'll always be grateful. I left Mum in capable nursing hands, and went home to wait for the inevitable bad news. It didn't come - four weeks later Mum is still with us, and going from strength to strength. Turning her regularly through her deep unconsciousness, then gently encouraging her to drink, and then to eat, has allowed Mum to fight another day! Every effort is made for me to stay in touch with Mum - I speak to the home or the staff every day, and the updates are priceless. What a wonderful place, I am so grateful."

"It’s difficult for me to find words to sum up the strength and courage of the staff in Overslade Lane Barchester Care Home during these really challenging times. They have cared for and nursed my mum through the Coronavirus, who has been so poorly on top of already being very unwell with complex underlying health issues and dementia. They have done it with grit and determination and smiled through the toughest of times. Our family are just so grateful for the contact they have maintained with us during these heartbreaking weeks. Saying thank you doesn’t seem to be enough. You’re all amazing."

"After 60-years of marriage, it was a tribble blow when the NHS told me it was no longer considered safe to look after my beloved wife at home; adding the NHS was unable to fund any assistance for her to continue to live in our home. My wife was to be admitted into Barchester Overslade House Care Home. The attentiveness and care shown to my beloved by the management and all the staff was and remains beyond reproach. The Covid-19 arrived in the UK preventing visiting. Nevertheless, without fuss or clamour the management and staff of Barchester Home quietly rose to meet the enormous new challenges exhibiting a new commitment and pride. The staff helped residents with modern devices allowing relatives to see and hear their loved ones; thus demonstrating their total commitment to yesterday's heroes and heroines, and so becoming today's heroes and heroines. Covid-19 is an insidious and indiscriminate killer, and I am overwhelmed with gratitude to Barchester as my beloved has a caring home which is as safe as anywhere can be in these difficult times."

"My mother was taken into care 6 weeks after having an unforeseen and devastating stroke leaving her dependent on others for support. For the best part of 5 months, the staff and management of Overslade House did outstanding work to make her time there as comfortable and as pleasant as possible. At no time did she look unsettled or distressed and they gave her opportunities to join in with the more suitable activities. At the end of life, she was treated with respect and the staff and management offered sympathy and support throughout. Thank you Overslade for all you have done."

"My 86 year old mother arrived at Barchester Overslade House last October. She was so fragile and frail, weighing only 6 stone, after spending 3 weeks in hospital, within days she started to pick up, joining other residents in the day room, she soon got her appetite back with such a great menu that is offered every day, there is always something she likes. My Mum needs 24-hour care, she has dementia and is totally incontinent, she is well looked after, the carers are lovely and genuinely care about the residents. She is happy and now weighs over 7 stone and joins in the activities that are planned daily."

"I wanted to ensure that I posted a review of my recent experience of Overslade Care Home, Rugby, whilst my mum was a resident. My mum did not relish the thought of going into a care home for her palliative care, but agreed to do so on the basis that if she did not like it, she would then be transferred home. Within 3/4 days mum settled in very well and adjusted to the environment. The reason for this being that the home itself was lovely and very welcoming from meeting the Administrator on reception at the time, who stayed late to allow mum to be admitted. What can I say about the nursing care? Each and every one of the staff, whether it be the nursing or care staff were nothing short of amazing. They looked after my mum like one of their own and the way they spoke so gently to her, it was just so lovely. So gentle and reassuring that she was not a bother. In her final hours, they were so kind to all the family and most of all my amazing mum. Thank you isn't enough."

"The warm welcome and full understanding my Brother and I received when we went to "check out" Overslade for our Dad who was being transferred directly from Hospital was a sign of things to come. The standards attained by Nurses, Carers, Chefs, Cleaners, Maintenance, the list goes on, can only be described as First Class led by a Management Team who obviously believe in leading by example. Despite the lovely menus, Dad doesn't have much of an appetite at the moment but Carers and Catering Staff do all they can to tempt him with offers to prepare "what do you fancy?" Mobility is a problem and whilst for the most part, he prefers his own company, now and again he fancies a change, especially to sit in the beautiful garden. Help is always on hand to enable his little trips. Our family cannot speak too highly of Overslade and its Staff. The expert, understanding, patient, kind and loving care given and shown to Dad enables us to sleep nights knowing he is safe and so very well cared for."

My on-going care here has been ‘top notch’. The nurses dispense kindness and understanding along with my medication; the reassuring and kind care assistants provide constant help and support in all situations; the staff who maintain high standards of cleanliness do so with a smile and a cheery word; the activity organisers are caring, kind and encouraging and the chef and her team prepare a wide variety of delicious meals from a very varied menu. The first class manager and her team are warm and caring, as they maintain Gold Standard care - yet they always have time for a word of encouragement or a humorous chat.

I can't find fault with a single thing but if one thing needs a mention: the staff are outstanding. They have all been kind and caring and have always been there for Dad (he said of one nurse "ever since I was admitted, she's been a real friend to me.") The management are always there to talk to us worried relatives in details about any questions we have. There's plenty of staff, and they never seem too hurried or overworked to take care of the residents; they take the time to make sure Dad has the best possible care. We've been very impressed all round, and from a relative's point of view, I can relax a little, knowing that my dad couldn't be better looked after than at Overslade."

"Amazing place. Mum moved into Overslade in the spring of 2016. She was end of life care with COPD. She passed in October 2017. A life longer than we expected and I’m sure that is down to Overslade's care. From day 1 not only was Mum welcomed but myself and my family were too. Everyone knew our names from carers/nurses to the manager and receptionists. They were all friendly and helpful. They even loved and welcomed my dog who went to stay with Mum most days. Mum loved all the staff and they honestly could not do enough for her. Mum spent a lot of time in and out of hospital with chest infections which were spotted early on by the nursing staff. After bad experiences with another residential place, the staff being so watchful and caring here was a big relief to me. Mum enjoyed the day trips out, you couldn’t stop her from putting her name down for an adventure, even though they wore her out. I can not thank them all enough for their care, concern and love they gave."

"My father spent the last few weeks of his life at Overslade House. At the hospital we'd been given a poor outlook and realised that there were only days left for Dad, and were very apprehensive when it was suggested that we look at a Care Home for him to see his last days out, knowing that his own home would have been his preferred option, but there was no time to arrange that. But on first stepping into Overslade House to see where we might have to send him, we felt an instant relief, and knew by the welcome, the smiles from the staff, the smiles from the guests, the look and the overall feel of the place, that getting Dad a room there was the best thing for Dad and us his family. And we weren't disappointed. Dad's last days were as comfortable for him as it was for us. And we couldn't have wished for anything more. Thank you to everyone at Overslade House, including all the other guests in Dad's unit, for making that so."

As a nurse, I had many fears about placing my mother (also an ex-nurse) in a care home, but it was clear that she needed full nursing care. It was very reassuring to observe the care that the staff gave, any queries I had were answered immediately and cheerfully. Sometimes when I arrived to visit, there were staff caring for Mum and I could overhear them talking to her so kindly. She was always clean, a jug of water always in reach, a call bell at her side. I know that Mum would have told me in no uncertain terms if the staff weren't caring, but she always smiled and said they were lovely. I visited several times a week and I only ever observed kindliness. Thank you!"

"The care my brother in law receives from the Barchester Overslade House Care Home is good I cannot fault them. He is kept clean and always looks nice but they don't only care for him but they care for the families too. We feel like part of a family when we go to visit, nothing is too much trouble and we leave there with an easy mind. They all care about him so much and I think so much of all the staff. I would recommend Barchester Overslade House Care Home to anybody."

"My father was admitted during May 2017. The care my father receives was the best he could have ever had. His quality of life was so improved. All of the staff became not only his best friends, but also friends to all of the family. Overslade is a happy home, providing function days for residents and their family. I have seen other care homes within my location, Overslade, in my opinion, is the best in the area. Now my father has sadly passed away, the family will miss visiting, it was such a nice home."

"The home must be one of the best. My husband was losing blood in his catheter and went into the hospital for tests. The carer from the home who went with my husband could not have been better. He is now back at the home. His room overlooks a lovely garden with flowers and trees. The family could not be more pleased."

"My mother was admitted to Barchester Overslade House in June 2016 as a palliative care resident for possibly a few weeks or months. Her care and treatment by the nursing staff was excellent. The carers were always considerate and thoughtful and the support team made her time there as enjoyable as possible. Mum died in May 2017, exceeding the life expectancy originally diagnosed and I feel this was, on the whole, because she received such an excellent level of care and support. Mum died a few weeks ago but I feel that mum's last year was spent in comfortable surroundings, with dignity, constant care and she made many new friends. The support also extended to all her family - we were always made welcome."

"A close friend of long standing has been a resident of Barchester Overslade House Care Home for over a year and another close friend has just moved in. As an infrequent visitor, I have found the atmosphere to be warm and welcoming - together with professional and caring when dealing with the diverse needs of everyone. Having experienced many similar homes, I would have no hesitation in saying Barchester Overslade House Care Home is the best."

"Myself and my sister in law visited over a dozen nursing homes looking for a place for my husband who had Alzheimer's. As soon as we walked into Overslade House we both knew this was the place. All the staff were friendly and welcoming, the home was spotlessly clean and beautiful and suitably decorated for people with dementia. The meals were delicious and cooked fresh on the premises and nothing was too much trouble. The care he received, in the three months he was there, was wonderful. They were so caring and supportive, not only to both him and myself but to the family and friends who were there constantly in his final days."

"Overslade House was outstanding for the all to brief time our relative was staying there. Our experience could not have been any better. The care staff and nurses were all extremely kind, efficient, friendly, thoughtful and accommodating. Nothing was too much trouble for any of them. The manager and deputy manager's door was always open and they were extremely helpful and approachable, even before we had secured a room. The rooms, facilities, food and surroundings were all superb. First class in every aspect."

"Our mum stayed at the nursing home for several months and then was able to return to her bungalow. She was poorly and frightened on admission and soon settled in. The welcome she got was so warm. My sister, brother and I were always made to feel welcome too. We were all treated with respect and listened to if we had any questions. We were always greeted with smiles from staff. Mum was always treated with dignity. The home is a beautiful place with lovely furnishings. There is always a great variety of activities - the staff (from cleaners, cooks - to nurses and management) are fantastic."

"My mother has been a resident at Overslade House for 7 years. Recently, she celebrated her 90th birthday. Staff helped me to organise a tea party for her in the coffee lounge and the kitchen provided a buffet for the family attending. It was hassle free for me and everything worked like clockwork. The food was lovely. Recently, the manager asked if I would like my mother to move to a smaller more comfortable unit in the home. She thought it would suit my mother better. It has been a good move thanks to the care of the manager."

"Could not wish for any better place for my wife than this, if only it was 18 miles nearer to where I live. It would be even better ie South Leicester."

"We were all anxious and apprehensive about dad moving to a nursing home and truly feared that he would not settle. We could not have been more wrong; he is very happy and the staff have gone out of their way to help him feel valued. There have been hiccups but all have been resolved promptly and with good humour."

"My wife was resident from April 2015 until June 2016. During this time I can only describe things as good in all respects. Also during this time I myself had 2 weeks respite care following an operation."

"My mum was admitted the day before her 90th birthday in June this year, on palliative care, after spending nearly eight weeks in hospital. All the staff, without exception, were extremely caring and understanding, helping her to settle in as comfortably as possible. The chef even provided a beautiful birthday cake the next day for mum to share with her family and friends! Since then my mum has made such an improvement in herself and is able to be more independent again, with the genuine care and support of the staff at Overslade House. Above all, whatever upsets or concerns my mum has expressed the staff have dealt with them in a compassionate, respectful and thoughtful way - nothing seems to be too much trouble. They have a wonderful team at Overslade House and I feel very lucky to have my mum in such a caring environment at this time and I appreciate all the support my mum, myself and family all receive."

"My friend has been in since July 2015, since his admittance he has gone from pain and misery to content and care free. The staff management, cleaners, carers and entertainers are amazing. Always make visitors comfortable as well the residents. I can talk to anyone about his care or any worries. 100% recommend this home for all they do for everyone. The cafe is a god send for us relatives to. Amazing quality. Thank you everyone. xx"

The staff and home are excellent, first rate. Dad is given lots of love, care and attention. Thank you so much."
