Lever Edge House is a purpose-built care home, created to best compliment a highly skilled team offering excellent residential care. This home also boasts fantastic dementia care.
Carers offer residents and their families the support they need during what many find some of the most trying times of their lives. Families are truly grateful for the personal support they receive, when faced with one of life's very difficult decisions and the team pride themselves on continuing that support to residents and their families from the moment they contact the home throughout the whole of their stay and beyond.
The approach to care is simple - look after the person and not the ailment/condition alone - Carers want to get to know their residents and their families, thus enabling them to look after the whole person and not just to concentrate on the task in hand. Staff get to know their clients, who they are, who they were and how they have come to be at the home.
Carers get to know their families too and like to understand the dynamics within the family setting and how best they can support these as they build a relationship of trust. They understand that choosing a care home is not just about excellent amenities, but about a true and real understanding of relationships being nurtured, trust being built and a life being lived. Professionals believe in true, real and honest care and keep this at the heart of their approach.
The home welcomes long stay residents but also those wanting a shorter stay, perhaps for rehabilitation or convalescence or to build confidence after a fall. Has also offered respite care and support to those suffering from nervous conditions following a break in at their home
Hill Care have are well respected in the North of England for a homely range of care accommodations that incorporate the latest sector technology and recognised good practice.

I have found generally the care of my dad has been very good. Although, there have been times when I have visited he has been unshaven and required a shower. However, when I have pointed these matters out, they have been addressed. It's been great to see my dad get involved with the activities provided as he does need to keep active and enjoys helping out with chores so a massive thank you to the activities lady for all she does! So far my dad seems to have settled down and I thank everyone for their support!
Thank you for taking the time to review our service, it is much appreciated

Since mum came into Lever Edge care home with Alzheimer's, her life has been transformed! The activities, fun, joy, and life has come back into her thanks to all the care and activities she has been able to do.

My mum has been in the care home for 16 months. She lost her husband in March last year and because she has mixed dementia she can never remember he is no longer with us. Through this she suffers on a daily basis. If it wasn't for the carers in the home she would not cope whatsoever. She is so well cared for we as a family could not ask for more. It's so nice to go in and visit and see how happy she is. I cannot thank the staff enough at the home and when I say home it feels like a proper home. I will be forever grateful to everyone involved in our mums care. Thank you so much xx

Birthday parties are well acknowledged with entertainments cake buffet and drinks making sure the residents have a very happy birthday. On the whole very satisfied with the home.

Thankyou for you review we appreciate the time you have taken to give us this feedback
The only problem is my mum really needs her glasses on all the time. Many times I have seen photos of her doing activities without her glasses. I arrived today to visit, she didn't have her glasses on.

My mum Has been very happy since coming to Lever Edge, she joins in a lot more than other places she has been in. All the carers are very friendly and seem to genuinely care about the residents, since coming here in sept24 my mum always seems happy she is very messy but her room and appearance is always clean & well looked after. I can't praise the staff enough for how good they are with the residents.

My mum is always clean and well fed.
As a family member, we would like my mum to do more walking with her frame and simple exercises to keep her strength and mobility up.

I started working at Lever Edge in 2014, I worked as a carer for 9 years and when the activities coordinator job role came up last year I thought I would go for it, doing this job for the last 12 months I feel I have excelled in my confidence and thrived, I really enjoy making all the residents happy, I have a great rapport with all the residents, families, friends, and people and businesses in the community who donate some wonderful things to Lever Edge. I won Star of the Month in January for my compassion and aspiration.

I have worked at Lever Edge for 13 years, starting as a carer and working through the ranks to a senior, unit manager and 6 years in my current role as a deputy manager now, I feel I am a great support to management and all the staff.
I hold an NVQ level 5 in Leadership and management.
My greatest achievement was writing a poem during the pandemic I entered a competition and out of hundreds of entries I won. My poem was then published along with my photograph in a book called ‘Poems in a Pandemic,’ so a very proud moment!
