Care Homes Owned by Kingsley Healthcare Group in Merseyside

My husband David arrived by hospital ambulance at Woodlands Lodge at 7.30pm in the evening. A number of staff were waiting at the door to assist transferring David from the ambulance to the 1st floor bedroom that had been made ready for him. Since then all the staff at all levels have been helpful, cheerful & willing in the care of my husband. We are so grateful for the way he has been cared for and couldn't wish for more. Many thanks to all concerned.

my mum came here after a failed hip operation & decided to stay. A great care home, smoothly run, where residents can be themselves, have their own things around them, and can choose to do their own thing or join in with the many varied activities & outings. New management seems very organized & efficient. Very comfortable, clean, well designed range of rooms & excellent outdoor spaces, including a few rooms opening out onto more private little patio areas. Plenty of friendly staff who engage with residents in an efficient & caring way. Any questions or concerns I can ask on-site staff. Homemade cakes offered each afternoon & even flowers brought from home for residents to enjoy in their rooms if they wish.

I came for a respite and I really like it. If I need respite again I would come back.

I recently asked one of the senior staff if I could go down to the kitchen to get a drink of juice for Anne, the reply was of course you can, this is your home too.

Since my mum arrived at Woodlands lodge the care she has been given has been amazing. The love, kindness and dignity she has been shown is fantastic. The staff, every single one of them are wonderful They take time with mum and they make sure she is comfortable, happy and she is incredibly well cared for.

It has been a great experince to visit my Granny in the care home. Everyone is very nice and speaks to us when they walk past. Good food too aswell. A great way to entertain residence too with flim nights and music too. Every staft is great. People are nice to speak too.

I have been at Park View since Feb 2026. The care and kindness I have received from all staff, management, carers, cleaners, laundry ladies. All staff have been lovely to me, also activity team. I would recommend this home. I live by the home when the Hospital was looking for me somewhere to stay. I rang the home and I have been here 7 months. 10-star home to me.

I visited 3 residents on the 1st floor today. 2 were in the lounge for 1 hour, there were 4 carers chatting to each other in the lounge, sat in the armchairs. There was no interaction with residents apart from the friendly, pleasant maintenance manager. Several residents were on their own in their room. There is a lack of leadership evident. Over the 3 and a half years of visiting, there has been 4 managers and a lot of the good staff have left. Compared to 2 other homes I visit, Park View is poor. It is sad to see how it has deteriorated.

Simply put, Woodlands Lodge Formby is an outstanding place. All the staff and the whole place is/are superb. During my search for a care home, as soon as I walked into Woodlands Lodge, I just knew that this was the place. The feeling was reinforced when I met the staff. The words professional, caring, happy, safe, secure, clean, compassionate, and affectionate are just, but a few to describe the place and staff. My elder mum loves Woodlands Lodge, and we are reassured and content that she is in a great place.

What a wonderful place, the staff here are absolutely fantastic, they go above and beyond. My dad's care is wonderful; he is so well cared for. The activities are getting better and better when we come to see my dad, he is so smart and looks so happy and relaxed.

We love Woodlands Lodge, but it's a big but, we need entertainment staff; it's too much for Yvonne. The staff are lovely, can't do enough for my dad.

I am current on a third stay is for respite care following an op at Hospital. Again, all staff and systems are top-notch. It says a great deal about a place of employment that many staff have been here since my wife's stay began in 2022. A great home and I would highly recommend Woodlands Lodge.

Woodlands: the perfect place with excellent facilities & staff!

My wife went into Woodlands Lodge in 2021 towards the end of Covid Outbreak. I was scared my wife (because of her condition) was not aware of the situation. She was content with everything that was provided.The staff put us both at ease and have always been so caring and kind to us both. My wife is never agitated, and is always smiling and chuckling. I am more at ease because I know she is being looked after so well.

If I need a care home this is where I would like to be.

Overall experience excellent.

The facility is pleasant, clean and welcoming, staff are friendly, helpful and happy. The food is appetising, nutritious and cooked on site. There is plenty to do for residents with themed activities taking place all the time and visitors are always welcome. I feel my mother-in-law is in a safe, caring and positive environment, with high standards, and would recommend Park View to anyone.

Lovely staff always helpful and caring. Clean rooms. Activities for everyone.

our mum arrived here 10 days ago after 8 weeks in hospital after having a stroke. mum turns 80 on tuesday but as most off her family will be working they let us do her a party today. the staff were amazing even putting up with her all her young grandchildren running around and also coming to chat with us all.As a family we felt we had made a right choice for mum too go. thank you for a great day for mums birthday and taking good care of her. we all came away knowing she had a great day and shes well care for

Mum was admitted to Woodlands after a fall when she was exhausted, distressed and in severe pain. From day 1, the manager and staff welcomed her warmly and reassured her. Her pain was quickly managed and in a short time, thanks to the care and attention of staff, she began to thrive. 'Respite' has now become 'permanent'. Mum is very happy. An excellent care home - and welcoming to visitors!
