What people say about us

"Daily care is average, but there is a staffing shortage, and very often the standards of living for residents is poor. For example 1) the resident will be sitting in their stool for 2 hours (which can lead to skin problems) and 2) residents are gathered in a corridor together with nothing to do, because there needs to be a staff attendant on them in other spaces, like the TV room or in the garden. I would only recommend here if there is a lot of family support."

"I cannot explain how relieved I felt when leaving my husband for respite because the care received was exceptional - gentle, patient and warm.
The front foyer is so welcoming where visitors can have coffee and cake anytime, which is actually very important and eases the visiting hours at sad times.
All the staff are amazing, so kind, friendly, supportive, with time for everyone including visitors.
Bravo Wilsmere - be proud of all you achieve to ease the lives of everyone needing care."

"Everybody here has been kind, understanding caring and friendly. They are all like one big happy family. The food was excellent and there was not one unhappy resident!
If my mother has to stay in a care home again it MUST be this one as I know she will be safe and well looked after.
Thank you to everyone who looked after her."
