My mum has now been a resident at Rookwood for nearly 2 years and did take a while to settle. I have been very pleased that over the last 12 months she has joined in with more activities during the day and socialising in the lounge too. Any concerns are listened to and acted upon by staff. Recently my mum has suffered some ill health and the care staff have been exceptional. I trust them completely with my mum's care and well-being. Thank you to the whole team.

My Mum moved to Rookwood in July this year following a fall in another care home, due to the care my Mum had received at her previous care home I was initially quite wary of care homes generally, but it soon became apparent to me that I didn't need to worry about my Mums care any longer. Rookwood is an exceptionally well-run care home, the staff are genuinely friendly and kind to their residents and both me and my family feel welcomed when visiting. The activities on offer are wonderful, with lots of variety and fun things going on. The staff is really bubbly and enthusiastic, with regular exercise sessions too, and a lovely resident-focused atmosphere. The food is great with several options for all three meals of the day, Rookwood is spotlessly clean, dining room is laid out beautifully. I have access to care notes, which is great, and also staff ring if there is anything out of the ordinary happening. Most importantly my Mum is very happy here and well cared for. This is a very good care home.

From our very first visit to view Rookwood with our uncle we have been very pleased with the ambience, facilities, management and welfare provided by the whole care home team. Rookwood's communal spaces, outdoor areas and garden are ideal for all the residents to use. A big thank you to the Rookwood team for making our uncle comfortable and content as a permanent Rookwood resident.

My mother had a month of respite care at Rookwood. She was looked after extremely well. The staff were amazing with her. The facilities were excellent all the rooms are finished to a high standard. I highly recommend this care home.
