The staff are very friendly. The home is spotlessly clean. Rooms are lovely. All residents are well looked after. The Activity Team are fantastic. The home provides a lot of activities, music, baking, bingo etc and trips out on the mini bus.

Outstanding care home. Staff are amazing and do so much with my mum. Since moving into Widnes Hall mum has a new lease of life. Its a joy to see her enjoying herself every day and taking part in all the activities and days out. We have such peace of mind knowing how happy and well cared for mum is.
I have also recommended Widnes Hall to my friend who has recently moved her mum in. Only negative is I would like mum to have new flooring in her room. Other than that 5 stars all the way. Thank you to all the staff you are amazing.

Reply from Amanda Ashton, Home Manager at Widnes Hall

Thank you for leaving Widnes Hall a review, and for your lovely words. We love having Mum here with us and it's been great to see her blossom. As discussed, we have now arranged for the flooring in Mums room to be replaced. Thank you again for your lovely review, your kind words will be passed on to the team.

When gran moved into WH in Oct 2024, we honestly thought that if we get her to Xmas we would be lucky.
But with the expert care she has received, she is thriving - healthwise, happiness, contentment, friendships have all blossomed and as a family, we could not be more appreciative.

My mum stayed at Widnes Hall for two weeks respite care, whilst I went on holiday in February.


From the moment we entered we were made to feel like we were friends, everyone was so welcoming and any fears of leaving mum were quickly gone. I can't stress how important this was.


The en-suite bedroom

was lovely, as was the lounge and dining area. There were lots of activities throughout the day, bingo and a singer and it was lovely to see the residents enjoying themselves.


Every single member of staff was really lovely and caring and are a credit to the company.


If we ever need respite care for another holiday, Widnes Hall is the only place I would want to leave my mum.

From entering Widnes Hall, we were greeted with a pleasant greeting by all the staff. Mum couldn't settle at first but now she loves it and has certainly settled in. Mum is happier when she is kept active with different games or tasks. The entertainment is good too. I would recommend WH.

My dad has been a resident at Widnes Hall since May 2024. He is 91 and has mobility issues. Dad is so settled and happy there. He feels safe as he felt vulnerable living on his own. He has not looked so well in years as the care and kindness he receives are excellent. The staff are so wonderful and
have helped Dad feel as though Widnes Hall is his home. I have also received so much kindness at what was an emotional move from his bungalow.

My mum has been a resident for 18 months now and she has settled in very well. All staff are amazing and understanding. The food they serve is all homemade and fresh. All staff communicate with us and tell us of any concerns. The doctor comes every week and checks for any needs. The hairdresser on site
is fab and my mum looks forward to having her hair done every week. Always doing activities with the residents my mum enjoys it. I would 100% recommend Widnes Hall and feel secure in the knowledge my mum is being well looked after.

On the whole, I am pleased with the care. I know my uncle is safe and looked after. I do think it is expensive for what you get. He has to pay £20.00 to the Podiatrist and I think this should be included. He has to pay for a haircut which I think should be included. He needed a haircut a couple of months
ago and it was not cut because they said he had no money. He does and all they needed to do was cut it and then ask me.

Reply from Amanda Ashton, Home Manager at Widnes Hall

Thank you for taking the time to review Widnes Hall. I am happy to hear that you are pleased with our care and rate your overall experience with us as good. Care is one of our main priorities. This is why we have external parties come in, for some of the resident's needs. Such as hairdressing and Chiropody. So, residents still get a salon experience from a professional hairdresser, within the home in our salon. In regards to Chiropody, we have external chiropodists come in to check any concerns, so we have a genuine professional address any of their issues and give them the best care and treatment they need. We do as much personal care as we can, for our residents, but when it comes to receiving a diagnosis and treatment, it's important we have external professionals treat and examine our residents. If you have any other concerns or recommendations, please feel free to contact me. My door is always open.

My ratings show my views about Widnes Hall. The staff on all levels are conscientious, efficient and go about their tasks with a smile on their faces. The leadership and management are excellent and take great pride in seeing Widnes Hall shine. Facilities are excellent, cosy and warm and well-suited

Would happily recommend this home to anyone for their loved one. Our mum spent over two and a half years on the upstairs dementia unit. She received the very best of care, always with compassion, understanding and dignity. The staff are a friendly dedicated and hard-working team who we came to think
of as our extended family. They are really amazing you couldn't have any better people looking after your loved one.

Overall the staff look after my mum excellently. They know her likes and dislikes and her ways. She is bedridden now but they enjoy the time they spend with her and Mum responds.
Mum's room is in need of decorating and having spoken to management it will be done over the coming weeks. The staff will
be very careful when they move Mum to another room.

Widnes Hall and all its staff are amazing. Nothing is too much trouble for either the residents or their relatives. The relatives meetings they hold are very informative and the staff are very approachable and are a credit to the home. The first thing my mother-in-law said to me on her first day was
"I'm home" which meant so much to me as I was the one who recommended Widnes Hall to the family. I've not seen her so happy in a long time and look forward to being able to sit out in the garden with her in summer. Thank you, Widnes Hall!
