Excellent care home with brilliant caring staff. Every member of the team is exceptional. When Mum moved in she quickly settled and after just a short time referred to Merlewood as home. Whenever we visit we too are made to feel welcome and nothing is too much for the staff. Mum has had her ups and downs and the staff have liaised with outside agencies to ensure that her excellent care has continued. 

Business response:

Thank you for taking the time to complete this review. Further confirmation of the staff ongoing hard work and team working.

Having looked at more than 10 care homes, I chose Merlewood for my mother. Best decision I could have made. The accommodation was lovely, clean and more than adequate. All the staff were polite, caring and made my mum feel at home. She was so well looked after, which took a lot of pressure off me. I would highly recommend Merlewood to anyone considering care for their elderly family members, out of ten. 

Business response:

Thank you for your review of your mothers care and stay at Merlewood.

I would like to say how happy we are with the care and support given to mum and us from all the staff. We receive a friendly welcome each visit, and all the different teams are always happy to help. We are very pleased with all aspects of mums care, especially with the transition to nursing care, the staff explained everything and we can see how settled she is. Thank you Merlewood.

From when my mother first went to Merlewood until she passed away, she was looked after very well. The staff were very approachable and helpful, and always kept me up to date with anything to do with my mother, which I was very grateful for. Many thanks to all the staff at Merlewood.

From when you arrive into the reception area it has a feeling of warmth, this comes from the staff and the residents do seem happy. The nursing staff are very helpful and you can always get to talk to them easily. The food is nicely served by staff that are happy to bring the food when required. All in all a very lovely nursing home. It's very clean and doesn't have any funny smells.

A great find - Being responsible for organizing the care for a family member is a tough one when you have no experience of the care system. From the moment I contacted Debi and her team they couldn't have been more helpful - I was super impressed with the timely responses and above all the sense of care. This made the while process so much easier. I visited and my care is now in a lovely room with the most delightful staff, and a very impressive food offer, it has made a difficult situation so much easier with their help. 

Business response:

Thank you for taking time to review your experience. It is always a pleasure to know we have made a difficult situation easier.

Our mum was a resident at Merlewood for 3 1/2 years and we are so pleased that we found such a wonderful care home. Many of the staff are long serving and that continuity is so vital when you are elderly. The grounds are beautiful, well maintained and accessible by wheelchair. Management are available and always respond quickly to queries. The cleaners work tirelessly to maintain very high standards in residents rooms and communal areas and are always polite and cheerful. Our mother transitioned to nursing care earlier this ... read more
