The Willow Care Home

The Willow is a ‘home from home’ care home in Chesham, Buckinghamshire, providing care for 11 older people. We understand that choosing the right care home is vital, which is why we’ve made life at The Willow as near to home as possible.

Choosing a Care Home is not just about the person moving in, it is about their loved ones too. It is a big change for everyone and we never lose sight of that fact. We want the residents families to feel part of The Willow as well. 

We focus on Person Centred Care Plans that reflect the way the individual chooses to live their lives. Our team of highly trained and experienced local staff ensure that the care plans are carried out and that each of our residents feel valued and safe.

Care Services

We pride ourselves on not needing to use agency workers and this is the point of difference between small local homes and the larger establishments. We have a settled staff, some have been with us since we opened 20 years ago, a solid team, and our greatest asset that build trusting relationships with those they care for. Familiar faces that carry out their duties to the highest standard, yet maintaining an informal, friendly manner to those that might be fearful of their new surroundings.

“I count my blessings living here. Last night we had the television on and there was community singing. The patients were all singing and following the telly. I’ve never been in a place where the patients were happy and singing. I just hope the Lord spares me so that I can enjoy it.”

W.D, Resident

“It’s absolutely perfect, it’s so lovely. If someone asked me what the best place is, I would say here. I love it, I love it, I love everything about it. The food is lovely and you’re always the same. You’re always trying to make things nice.”
