Reviews for Woodland View Care Home

What a great care home. I’ve had other family members stay in others and it does not compare to Woodland View.
The attention to details, care given, friendliness of staff who are credit and the cake made by the Head chef is the best.
Thanks for always being able to speak to the Manager. The open door policy is absolutely wonderful idea! Thanks again!

"Quite excellent, actually. I could not wish for better. Everything is good, the food, the staff, everything."

Clean building, reception ladies n gents are lovely, friendly and helpfull, , management lady is lovely , most carers are lovely, there disent ever seem to be enough carer,s thou, bells ringing for sometime before a carer goes in, lots of activities, activities staff are great n thoughtfull. Food is good , bit repetitive thou, carers need to check in on clients more frequently, just my option.

Lovely care Home with wonderful staff.
I’m a contractor and I was very well looked after today after feeling unwell on arrival . A special thank you to Andra , Daryl and Heather for all your care today , Thank you

"My experience at Woodland View has been excellent. Staff of all levels have shown efficiency, care and compassion. The period of respite care has proved to be very beneficial for both my husband and I, thank you."

We go to a gardening club once a month. The people are very friendly and although mum doesn't take part, she loves to sit, watch and have a cup of tea.

The staff are fantastic, very welcoming and caring. We couldn’t be happier with the care our mother has received as a resident of Woodland View.

"I have been in this care home for approx 18 months. I soon settled in and joined in with activities. The staff are all very helpful and if need be if I wanted help or was worried about anything I feel that I could talk to anyone of them and they would help and reassure me. Our rooms are comfortable; my son and daughter arranged to have a couple of bits of furniture from my home which has made a very pleasant room, a bit more like home."

"My husband was placed in Woodland view care home after being diagnosed with terminal cancer. This was such a sad and difficult time for our family but made so much easier by the amazing staff and facilities at the home. They were even so welcoming to our little dog who immediately felt right at home. My husband had the best care we could have hoped for, he was relaxed, happy and comfortable, which he had not been in hospital. He had a lovely bright, sunny room which was well decorated and kept clean. The food was delicious and healthy with a good selection each day. On the day we sadly lost him the staff were incredibly kind, supportive and understanding, going above and beyond to meet the needs of our extended family. We could never thank them enough."

"My brother received an excellent quality of care and support. He had a lovely bright room that was very family friendly. The staff were attentive and caring and he was relaxed and comfortable. The menu at meal times was varied and the quality of the meals was really good. Our thanks go to all staff involved in his care."

"Very helpful, good standard of accommodation. Staff are friendly and encouraging in my respite care."

"Excellent care from all the staff who could not have been more helpful. Nothing was too much bother. All staff were very friendly. Everything was clean and tidy. Room was cleaned thoroughly every day."

"Mum had been residing at Barchester Woodland View Care Home for nine months and really enjoyed meeting the other residents and the many activities the home arranged to keep their residents entertained. When Mum's time came, the nursing staff were fantastic in making her comfortable and all other staff were very respectful and supportive of us, as her family. Thank you."

"Another delicious meal. Gammon, pineapple, roast potatoes and vegetables, a definite favourite! The head chef delivered the lunch trolley with a smile and always makes time to talk to the residents, wave and brighten their day."

"My mother-in-law who is 98 years of age and suffering from severe vascular dementia resides here. All the staff are caring and courteous. I find the environment at Woodland View excellent for her needs. Her room is always spotless and clean. Every effort is made to safeguard her well-being."

"I find Woodland View to be an outstanding care home, which I highly recommend. The home is led by a most impressive manager who is supported by an excellent deputy manager and efficient administration team. The care team are highly motivated and dediated to the residents and their personal needs. Their empathy and patient interaction is admirable, this, no doubt reflects the high quality and expectations of the management team. My mother is 98 with advanced dementia, she could not be in a better place."

"The room, bed, bathroom are all very good. The garden is pleasant. The cleaners, laundry, dining room service are very good. The carers are usually good, often excellent. In a year, I have only had cause to complain to the management twice and the matter has been promptly dealt with."
