Reviews and Testimonials

I want to thank everyone at Amberwood House for all the care they have provided. The staff are very friendly and nothing is too much trouble. They have been great, especially as it has been a tough time over the last few weeks not being able to see my friend regularly. It is lovely that we are able to start visiting again even with restrictions.

Friend of Resident at Amberwood House

Amberwood staff do really well looking after us all. The food and the way it is served is very appealing always with nice choices, good cutlery and serviettes. Coffee is good too. The staff take their time, they are kind and always on the go. You can ask them any questions. I don't stay up too long, and I enjoyed the art classes in the morning.

Resident at Amberwood House

Although I found it quite strange living in a care home initially, I feel far more relaxed about it now. The staff are very good from the young ones to the elderly ones; they are all really lovely. On the whole, I enjoy the meals, but I am a fussy eater. If I ask for something special, the staff always try to get it for me. The gardens are very well maintained, and I enjoy spending time sitting outside.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all of the staff who have looked after my mum since she broke her hop 9 weeks ago. We consider ourselves so lucky to have secured a place in Amberwood whilst she recovers and are grateful to everyone that has been assisting and tending to her during these difficult times.

To All, with this care comes our massive heartfelt thanks to all of your staff and management, for the answering way in which they are dealing with this coronavirus situation, from the planning, extended care and supply of essential products to the total devotion that all of your staff clearly display on a daily basis.

Son of Resident at Amberwood House

Thank you so much to you and ALL the staff for doing what you do! I have done my best, and will continue, to try and dispel the terrible things that we see on our new every day concerning care homes. I am really quite angry with much of the media and find myself switching off the radio many times.

Family of Resident at Amberwood House

From initial contact to placing my friend in Amberwood, the attention to detail form the type of care through to medical needs was dealt with professionally but also considerately. Given the extremely testing circumstances, we all face at this moment in time, Amberwood has kept us up to date with all matters that may be of interest or concern to us.

Daughter of mother in Amberwood House

A true care home with kindness and respect for the patient. My one month here has felt like home. Although a poor eater after a major operation, the food was well prepared and mashed at the same time of arrival and now improved to proper meals.

My sincere thanks to all the staff at Amberwood House for the care, support, and help given to my Mother and me. I always found the level of care and support exemplary, not just from the front line carers but from the whole staff. Everyone has been friendly, approachable and caring about the comfort and welfare of my Mother 
Peter, son of resident at Amberwood House

My mother went to Amberwood House for respite care. Prior to this Mum was living alone with carers going in twice a day. When the respite period came to an end, Mum realised that she would miss the companionship. Not only is it wonderful for Mum but it gives me the comfort that Mum is cared for so well. The staff at Amberwood are a credit to Colten Care. Nothing is too much of a chore for them and they are so caring
