Water Royd House Care Home

We chose Water Royd for palliative care for our Mum. When I visited ahead of admission what struck me was the Staff were still largely the same as when our Dad was there 8 years ago, again for palliative care. Having experiences with a number of care homes around Barnsley consistency of Staff is a sign of people actually wanting to work there and caring. Whilst the home needs a lick of paint here and there, the staff are fantastic so please look past that. The care provided to mum in her last days was excellent.

I have just completed 3 weeks of college placement at water royd and have to say it is an absolutely amazing care home. Managers are so polite and welcoming. Lifestyle team do everything they can to make residents happy and do an absolute amazing job at it. Care staff are amazing and fufill all residents needs. I do not have a bad word to say about any member of staff, all amazing. I couldn’t recommend a better care home than water royd. Thankyou to all the team at water royd for making me feel so welcome, I had an amazing time. Will definitely be coming back to visit. ❤️

I have been with WATERROYD since march 2023 as the Business Administrator and from the start everyone was so welcoming and the residents are so lovely. I have been in care of some kind for nearly 20 years and the respect and kindness here is second to none. The residents are our extended family and I see that everyday that’s why I know I’m happy to get up every day to go. Management are amazing and head office are so down to earth and so helpful. The care is amazing from kitchen to care. If I had to be ever placed in a care home it would be waterroyd without a doubt.
