“I needed a week’s post-op recovery and found Shockerwick welcoming, supportive and flexible. The setting is glorious, uplifting in itself. My room was lovely, and the staff were amazing – nothing was too much trouble.”
Resident, February 2019, carehome.co.uk
“I arrived at Shockerwick House very weak and poorly and had to be wheeled everywhere. The care and attention over the two weeks I was there meant I was able to walk out to the car. They gave me my life back.”
Resident, October 2018, carehome.co.uk
“My mother came in suffering from a nasty sore, recovering from pneumonia and dramatic weight loss. Thanks to the nursing and care staff, Mummy has thrived. She has finally put on weight, is more alert and communicative, and her pressure sore healed.”
