Awards and testimonials

A truly outstanding care home. Warm, loving and respectful with an abundance of happy smiling faces. All staff show love and care with a positive attitude towards the residents. I can not praise Alderwood enough, mum loved her time there.

Alderwood should be made the benchmark to which all other care homes can aspire. Their commitment to providing excellent care and relationships with the resident’s family makes them a league above. I am indebted to all the carers for looking after my mum so well.

Alderwood have consistently excelled in the care provided to mum. She is happy and settled. Enjoys her food, loves having her hair done. Great environment, great activities. Can't think of a better place for mum at this stage of her life.

Thank God we found Alderwood. The home is very clean, very safe and very welcoming. The furnishing is modern and bright giving it a homely, welcoming appearance. It was so peaceful. Staff were all so caring to everyone and meals were good.

Alderwood is professional and kind, both things that relatives really need. I sensed a real affection between Mum and her carers.

I feel we have been very fortunate to have found this wonderfully caring place who look after both residents and their family and friends. Mum was encouraged to go out on day trips and enjoyed the activities organised every day.
