her yesterday, she did have them in, but they weren't switched on. Another small gripe is that some of her clothes go missing only for us to see other residents wearing them, even though her name and room number is inside the garments/shoes.

called the Drunken Duck and if somebody wants a glass of wine or beer they can have it. My mum doesn't have dementia, but the home is mixed and everybody gets used to it and help each other. Best care home I could have hoped for - and I saw a few before I decided this was best. Mum loves it and I know staff are loving mum as she's a feisty old bird that will give them a run for money. I'm saving up for a room - it's really good.

much trouble. Even to the extent of accommodating Mum with her particular likes and dislikes, e.g. brown bread, fresh fruit etc! Riverlea House is in a lovely location, nestled in the very picturesque village of River with a garden backing onto the River Dour. I cannot recommend it highly enough.

our case recently described Riverlea as the best care home he has seen since Covid.
The staff are welcoming, creating a true sense of community within a safe and nurturing environment. There are a range of activities and events. Food and drink are plentiful.
Moving my mum to Riverlea last year was the best decision we could have made. I'm truly grateful for the care provided and highly recommend.

as he is unable to walk and has limited coordination. He also has diabetes and gets tested twice a day and is given insulin based on the test results, along with various other medications prescribed by his doctors, He gets constant care and attention, his room is cleaned daily, and meals, snacks, and drinks are provided. I have witnessed this in person during visits and on video calls. He is very happy with the care home, the staff, and the services provided. He does not participate very much in activities, due to his condition and that some activities do not interest him.

kept up to date with what's happening.

doing her nails is really good as well.

and responsive to her needs which have been challenging on occasions. They welcome visitors and are obviously invested in supporting the wider family by providing personalised care for residents.
I would highly recommend a visit if you are looking for a residential placement for a family member.

with care and dignity. We recently had a medical incident where Mum was taken very ill whilst out with us. We were only a few minutes from the home and cannot thank them enough for all the calm and professional care with Mum but also with us. We were terrified we would lose Mum and the manager and care staff were so supportive, reacted quickly to minimise Mum's distress and provided lots of reassurance. Mum now refers to Riverlea as home, which we thought would never happen. There is always an activity to keep her entertained and I have not heard Mum laugh so much for a long time. Thank you everyone for being so caring. The home is spotless, food is amazing and the staff are caring.
