What can I say, my husband was 65 when he was diagnosed with PSP which stands for Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (it takes away anything the body does automatically).
There is no cure for this, it’s about palliative care. His legs were the first to go, then his speech became quiet and slow. Once he was no longer able to walk we started to look at nursing homes. As we lived in Clayton there was a place he went to but could not settle so I began to look for somewhere. Someone recommended Well Springs. I rang them and after 2 weeks my husband moved into his new place. He settled in very well. It really was like home from home, the staff are outstanding, nothing is too much trouble, the food is delicious and often they would ask if I wanted some too.
My husband passed away on the 20th May 2023. Staff came to the funeral which was really nice. The donations I got an arbour seat and plaque for the gardens at Well Springs. If I ever need a home I would check myself into Well Springs. 5-star accommodation.

My Mum went into Well Springs Nursing Home in February 2019 until January 2023 when unfortunately Mum passed away peacefully. From the day Mum arrived, the care, compassion and privacy and dignity shown were exceptional.
The end-of-life care given to Mum over the two weeks prior to Mum passing away was amazing. The nursing staff certainly knew how to give the care needed to maintain her hygiene needs, privacy and dignity, always communicating with mum when undertaking any tasks.
They would just pop into her room for a chat and check on her. Never leaving her on her own for too long. Reassuring her step by step.
As a family, we were never forgotten too. Nothing was too much trouble. The reassurance, and the endless cups of tea.
As her daughter, I cannot praise highly the excellent standard of end-of-life care shown by the whole team. We will never be able to thank you enough. You all delivered it perfectly. Thank you from all the family.
Well done, we are all very proud of you all.

I can not recommend this nursing home enough, the management and staff have gone above and beyond to support my grandparents and us. They both came to Well Springs Nursing Home together and were treated so well, the staff are so caring they couldn’t do enough for them or us. Unfortunately, we lost my grandma in January but the way the staff looked after her in her last few days, with such kindness and care, couldn’t have asked for more from them. The support they gave my grandad and us at the time and after was so lovely we were all so touched by the kindness and support we have been shown. My grandad is still there and he’s so well cared for the way the staff are with him it’s just so lovely to see, he just smiles at them and says how wonderful everyone is.
It has such a lovely warm friendly feel to the place and when we step inside it’s like it’s home because everyone is so friendly and couldn’t do more for you. The manager and his team really are fantastic we couldn’t have picked a better home for them.
