What people say about Highfield

Highlighting top-rated reviews
StarStarStarStarStar

Dad has dementure and parkinsons, been struggling with home care for 3 or 4 years. In and out of hospital during those 4 years before he came to highfield......what a difference in him! Best he has been for last 4 years or so, not been in hospital.since he arrived. Staff so friendly and personable. If I was in a home (and I'm not even 50 yet so!) this is where I'd want to be. Care homes often get a bad deal in the media, this one is a shining light and is affordable to boot! Six stars from me (only allowed to award 5)

My mum is cared for at Highfield. The staff are brilliant with her and look after her very well. They always keep me informed of her medical status and wellbeing. They always respond positively to my questions. My mum is happy and safe and well cared for, which means a lot to her family.
