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.

My husband went into the home in May with dementia I go to the home about 3 times a week and I am very happy with the care he receives. The staff always involves him in all the activities, he always seems happy.

The staff have been brilliant and worked very hard, making sure the residents have a wonderful Christmas and New Year. Thank you. The activity coordinators have involved my mum, which is nice, as she doesn't come out of her room much, mum's choice. But doing her nails and feet in her room, make her feel pampered, again, thank you. The residents seem happy. They are always lovely and clean. My mum needs more care these days and staff are always there to assist her when I ask for more checks.
Thank you for the positive feedback, we really do appreciate this.

My mum has been with Lever Edge for 3 weeks now. The difference the staff have made with her in this short time is amazing! She has a new lease of life, thanks to the activities coordinator who keeps her busy and engaged during the day and goes over and above in her work. All the staff worked hard over Christmas to make it as lovely and festive as possible. Nothing is too much trouble. I would highly recommend.
Thank you so much for your great feed back, this will be shared with the team.
My dad has a complicated illness and the staff treat him with respect and dignity and support both him and me and it is very much appreciated.

The staff are so caring and go out of their way to help residents with respect and dignity. Always have exciting activities, inclusive for all with cultures celebrated. Excellent social media updates. Always lots of food choices and drinks for residents. All residents well presented appearances - clothes, cleanliness etc. Outstanding. Nice, bright, airy and spotlessly clean. A well-managed care home with excellent staff. Thank you.

Each time I visit the home I feel that my aunt is in good hands. Although she is very confused and at times doesn't know who I am, she is always well cared for and supported. She tends not to each much but is encouraged by staff to eat as much as possible and the food is always plentiful and quite appetising. There are daily activities at the home and trips out for those who are able. Overall I can find no faults at all with the care she receives in the home.

We have always been made welcome when going to see my husbands auntie (which is every other day). The staff are very friendly and obliging. They look after the residents very well and genuinely seem to be fond of them and will talk to them like family. Our auntie is always clean and dressed nicely and has settled since going into Lever Edge in January. We feel settled in knowing she is being well looked after. The staff put on varied entertainment which is excellent.
Thank you very much for taking the time to leave a lovely review.
Mum has only recently come into the care system. I have some experience of care homes through work. I can honestly say that the staff here are the kindest I have experienced.

My 94 year old dad had lived in his own home for over 60 years, after a short spell in hospital he was unable to return home. As a family the decision to move dad into a care home was heart-breaking, how lucky we feel that a place was available at Lever Edge Care home, the amazing staff cared and looked after dad in a patient and respectful way, as a family we were listened to and made to feel welcome, every member of staff did their best for us all. Sadly Dad passed away but we were able to spend his last week at his bedside day and night and with the help of the care team we got through a very difficult time with some smiles. Amazing caring people doing a very difficult job. Thank You x

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!
