Review from Steve W (Son of Resident) published on 19 June 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Connell Court looked after my mum during her rehabilitation from hospital between April and June 2019. They did a great job. Very friendly and welcoming, they made her feel relaxed and at home from day 1. Nothing was too much bother for the helpful and courteous staff and they did their utmost to ensure I could speak with my mother whenever I called and kept me up to date with her progress whenever I asked.

Reply from Anna Harvey, Home Manager at Connell Court

Thank you for your very kind words and positive comments; it was a pleasure to care for your mum and we hope she is loving being home again.

Overall Experience

I have been visiting the home for 12 months and every time I go I am greeted by very welcoming staff no matter what part of the building I am in. The social side is very good and this shows in the face of the person I visit. You can always get yourself a hot drink, which is good if you have travelled some distance.

Review from Kathleen L (Daughter of Resident) published on 19 March 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My mother moved into Connell Court just over a year ago and we are so pleased to see her happy and settled. She was very reluctant to move in despite failing health and going through a very sad loss at the time, but with the patience and sincere and professional care of the staff she is now so much better. The atmosphere at Connell Court is friendly and happy, and we are very grateful to the management and carers who have made great efforts to engage with and understand my mother.

Reply from Anna Harvey, Home Manager at Connell Court

Overall Experience

My mum has been at Connell Court for nearly two weeks now. I can't praise the home and staff enough, all the staff are warm, welcoming and friendly. I am confident mum is getting the best care possible. My sister and I visited many homes looking for a place for mum and this is head and shoulders above the rest.

Review from Alison (Niece of Resident) published on 25 February 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Connell Court provided very good care for my uncle. He was an extremely private man and his lack of interest in being sociable was largely because he was virtually blind so he struggled to connect easily with staff and residents. Nevertheless, the staff grew to understand him well - particularly one of the senior staff who was exemplary in her level of support for him.

There is no other family member in the area of Birkdale who would need the care of Connell Court but I am grateful to all the all the staff there for providing a well led and managed home for my uncle. The staff were always warm, welcoming and informative when I visited and I was able to enjoy a number of meals with him which we both truly appreciated.

Reply from Anna Harvey, Home Manager at Connell Court

Thank you so much for taking time out to complete this review, we very much appreciate the kind comments and we are very fortunate to have had your uncle in our care, he touched all of our lives. I will pass on your feedback to the team.

Review from Jim L (Son of Resident) published on 11 February 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I am very pleased with the loving care my mother is receiving at Connell Court. She entered the care home in November 2018 and was made welcome by the staff and other residents right from the start. She has a medical condition which is closely evaluated by the staff and the GP or medics are called in when necessary.

I am particularly pleased with the way they communicate with me. Both by email and telephone the staff keep me posted on anything and everything happening with my mother. Also, when I call the home to find out how she is doing, everyone who picks up the phone is fully aware of my mum's status. This is particularly important to me as I live abroad and cannot visit as much as I'd like to.

Reply from Jennifer Mcculloch, Administration Manager at Connell Court

Thank you so much for your wonderful review of the care and support you receive at Connell Court. It is great to hear that you are happy with the consistency of care given to your mum. I will ensure your comments are shared amongst the team.

Review from Tracey (Daughter of Resident) published on 15 June 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Mum spent four weeks respite at Connell Court following a fall and breaking her shoulder.
From the moment she arrived, she was made to feel very welcome. Her room was very clean, warm and comfortable. Mum said the meals were superb, excellent choice, well prepared and presented, wholesome and nutritious. Well done chef.
The staff, from the manager to the carers, they couldn't do enough for mum, so caring and always had smiles on their faces. Nothing was too much trouble. A better team you couldn't wish to meet.
As a nurse myself, I couldn't have wished for a better place for mum to stay and recuperate.

A big heartfelt thank you to you all. Your care and compassion is outstanding.

Review from Angela A (Daughter of Resident) published on 22 May 2018 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
Our late mother had spent the past ten years in this MHA home, chosen because she was a Methodist and enjoyed visits from people at the local church, spiritual support, activities, and worship in-house, to which she was able to contribute.
In the last weeks of her life, increasingly frail, she received excellent care and love from all the staff without exception, regardless of their job description.

We spent the last week beside her bed, and could not praise enough their dedication and willingness to go to any lengths to look after her and indeed also us!

I have 2 very good friends staying here, and what I have observed over the past 7 months is that all of the staff have a good and genuine, caring relationship with all people, whether it be residents or visitors. Both of my friends have a very comfortable and respectful way of life. They are very well looked after. I would thoroughly recommend Connell Court, Southport to anyone looking for a clean and well-managed care home for their loved ones.

Review from Ed D (Son of Resident) published on 25 September 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My 103-year-old mother was still living independently in a retirement flat until 2 months ago. We looked at a number of care homes, but we knew we had found the right place as soon as we walked through the door of Connell Court. It felt like "home". Mum had the choice of two rooms, both were great but she chose the bigger one, which would have been our choice as well. Whilst she still feels that she is not ready for this change, and is still coming to terms with it, she, nevertheless, has nothing but praise for the place, the wonderful staff and the wonderful food. The staff have worked hard to settle her in.

Overall Experience

My mother has lived at Connell Court for nearly two years. She had suffered a big operation on her intestines and has recovered well. She is well looked after, the food is well balanced and her medications are well controlled. The staff are patient and caring. She holds the senior staff in high regard. She is now 96 and does not want to move anywhere else.
