Recent Feedback from Families

 

Well what can I say, Rookery Care Home is a first class caring home with amazing staff who go above and beyond in all areas of care. Mum spent over four and a half years there, which included covid times. We were always made extremely welcome and we became part of their family. We were recommended Rookery and from our initial visit knew mum, who had dementia, would be loved and cared for. Which she certainly was. Nothing was ever too much trouble. The standard of the rooms and equipment were second to none, doctors and hospital appointments were catered for as well as any dietary needs. Hairdressers and chiropodist visited regularly and entertainment provided throughout the week and birthdays celebrated. We were always kept informed of any needs and requirements. Thank you for giving Mum a wonderful four and a half years and for all your hard work.

 

A friend of mine recommended the Rookery as a relative of hers was a resident at the home and spoke very highly of the staff and care given. From my first visit I was very impressed by how the staff communicated with all residents and treated them as though they are part of the home's family. They are treated with respect and the best possible personalised care. The atmosphere created is one of genuine interest and care of the residents that are there. I highly recommend Rookery Cottage.

 

We came across this hidden gem after my father-in-law had spent some time in the hospital.

We transferred him to Rookery Cottage, which was totally in tune with his needs and had the friendliest and most caring team that we could have hoped for. They handled the many complexities of his health and medication regime with professionalism and total thoroughness. As a result, he regained some of his health and was even making progress with his ability to walk again. However, due to the serious nature of his condition, he passed away after a ten-month stay at Rookery. Throughout his stay, we could not have hoped for more attentive care, even at the end. The sad departure of him was handled with love and humility by all the team.

This is a family-run setting, with owners and staff that are dedicated, well-trained, and above all, genuinely caring people. It's in a lovely location, and I can totally recommend it.

 

We moved Mum from a grand-looking care home because we were not satisfied and went to the Rookery Cottage Care Home and what a difference. She was treated as one of the family, nothing was too much trouble. Her clothes were washed after every use each day, good home cooking, staff were so attentive and helpful, couldn’t fault it. The biggest compliment you can make is from my mother herself just before she passed away and that was if I have to go into a care home then this is the one for me. You couldn’t get a more anti-care home person than my mother so that is a high recommendation indeed.

 

We found The Rookery after a friend had recommended it to us. Our mum was with them for just over a year and we knew we had made a good find, even in Covid times, which they dealt with professionally. The Rookery is a lovely environment for residents and their families as all are made to feel so welcome and part of the Rookery family. The team create a fantastic home with nothing being too much trouble. They listened, provided love, care and patience with Mum, took her to hospital appointments and went the extra mile with all they did.

 

Moving a parent into a home is one of the hardest decisions to make, with so much to think about, but we made a good decision and would not hesitate to recommend the Rookery to anyone who has this difficult decision ahead of them.

 

This wonderful care home looked after my mother for the past three years until her recent death. The staff are so kind, hard-working and dedicated. Most have been there for many years. I can never thank them enough for everything they did for her and the rest of my family.
