Care Homes Owned by 3 L Care Ltd in Cheshire

It’s a home for the wheelchair dependent that isn’t really wheelchair accessible. Garden access is gained by the front door, along the access road, and through the car park. It’s not exactly a homely feeling, having to negotiate moving traffic to get to the garden.
The through floor lift is prone to breaking down, resulting in residents being confined to their bedrooms until it is fixed. This could last hours, days, or sometimes even weeks. Any appointments they have, including medical, have to be cancelled until they can go downstairs again.
Communal space has gradually reduced and it’s starting to feel more like an institution than a home, with residents constantly having to compromise for the failings of an old building, rather than management finding better solutions to them.

Activities have also reduced and there is far too much reliance on the TV for entertainment. It’s such a shame as it did used to be a really nice home, and a shift in managerial attitude is all it needs.

My son aged 28 is currently in 3L Care Winsford. This is literally a home from

home; it is a small assisted living style care home, modern and young with lots of activities, trips, and walks round to local parks, football and shops. The staff are second to none and can also do daily therapy plans where prescribed by NHS or private physios and speech and language therapists, which is a real bonus. There are high staff ratio numbers to residents, and a low turnover of staff showing how really successful 3L Care is with staff residents and relatives alike. Carers and nurses all wear name-badged purple Airtex teeshirts which make for a more relaxed informal, home-like feel, whilst still being totally professional.
