Superb nursing home.
My mum has always received excellent nursing care. She has complex needs and can pose challenges sometimes. The staff at the home are always good with Mum. Nothing is too much trouble. Myself and my family are reassured she is safe and in capable hands. Staff are really friendly,
smiling and approachable.
All staff go out of their way to chat with myself and family. They will update us on anything new with Mum.
We as a family are extremely grateful to all the staff nurses, care, management, chefs, handyman, cleaning. We can't thank them enough

Review from M B (Partner of Resident) published on 1 July 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Exceptional care and management. I was initially anxious for my partner to be placed in a home. She was dying and in need of round-the-clock support which I could not give. I have not had experience with homes and read and seen a lot of negativity about care homes.
I'd just like to say my anxiety
was short-lived when stepping into Lezayre. Management was so accommodating to my and my partner's wishes. Carers and nurses gave my partner outstanding care and respect. All staff were always smiling and friendly. Nothing was ever too much trouble.
I have seen and heard a lot of kind and heartfelt moments in this home between staff and their service users. I would see staff talking to the service users with love and compassion. Many times I would come in and see and hear party preparations. I know my partner would have loved this if she had been well enough. It was obvious all service users mattered and the focus seemed to be about them and making days fun and worthwhile.
Thank you Lezayre!

My mum lived at this home, but she’s sadly passed away now.
Words can’t describe how well looked after she was. The care here is second to none. The staff are friendly and inviting. Me and my family were always made to feel like a home from home. You are made to feel like part of an extended family.
The care my mum was given at the end of her life was comforting, respectful, and dignified. Me and my family walked away from such an emotional and heartbreaking experience, to have comfort in the fact Mum died peacefully.

My aunt has been in Lezayre for approaching 2 years now. I take my dad to see his sister regularly, they are both in their 80s and my auntie has severe dementia. We can't thank the staff enough for how they care for my aunt. She has great care, everyone is so kind and patient with her. The new lady
who has joined to engage with residents is already making a difference, although not to take anything away from everyone else who are amazing and do an incredibly difficult job with compassion, kindness, conscientiousness and humour. Thank you all so much.

My sister and I had to put Mum into a nursing home 6 months ago due to dementia. We are so glad we chose Lezayre. They have gone over and above to make Mum feel welcome but also supported us during this traumatic time. I say traumatic because this as many of you will understand is how it feels to take
a parent from their home and independence but it was the best thing we did. All members of staff are pleasant and friendly. They all muck in with jobs and work so hard, always with a smile. We now sleep at night knowing Mum is safe.

Thank you once again to the manager and her amazing team for the outstanding care provided to my husband.
Recently my husband has been quite poorly. The care and dedication of the Lezayre team has been and continues to be, second to none. All procedures were followed to the letter. I was well-informed
and consulted throughout.
Thankfully, he recovered enough to enjoy his birthday celebrations last week and once again I was delighted to see the genuine, heartfelt care from the staff and the further enjoyment of the residents singing Happy Birthday! The chef made a special fuss of him.
This is an extremely well-run care home, with an emphasis on really being home from home. From cleaning to catering, care to clinical needs, entertainment and maintenance, and everything in between, all staff are cheerful and happy to accommodate any requests.

I would highly recommend this care home to anyone who wants their family member to feel part of a family, respected and cared for with dignity. Lezayre Nursing Home was recommended to me by four people and now I recommend it too. I am very fussy about care for my mother and her needs as a person. The
staff are so amazing and down to earth. They even supported me when I was a bag of nerves putting my mum in. My mum has been there five weeks now and is totally settled. The care is top notch and the place is very clean. I feel so much less stressed knowing my mum is safe and cared for in this amazing home. Big thank you to the amazing staff.

Mum has been in another care home but we as a family didn't like the care mum was receiving. I as her daughter couldn't sleep well because I was so worried about mum. Since mum has been at Lezayre Nursing Home I sleep better. The care mum gets is on another level from cleaners, cooks, nurses and care
staff. Everyone always speaks to her.

Facilities, more than acceptable, currently doing upgrades
Care/Support, brilliant the whole staff care from the cleaners to the managers, all residents treated the same with love. Nurses have been brilliant with my mum's needs!
Cleanliness, always see cleaners cleaning, mum's room kept very clean.
Treated
with dignity, I've watched the staff treat all residents with dignity even the more challenging ones. All are treated the same.
Food and drink. The smell of the homemade cooking is amazing, my mum has diet issues, but it's no issue for the cooks. Residents/visitors are always being given drinks!
Staff, brilliant, so friendly and happy;
Activities, only scored it a 4 as I come of a morning and miss most;
Management, the Manager has built a great team here. You can see the team spirit, all staff working together, always hear laughs;
Safety, no concerns now I've moved my mum here;
Rooms, got everything mum needs, just getting a make-over as we speak;
Value for money, yes!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We moved our mother here roughly about six to eight weeks ago. Myself, my brother and sister are all in agreement it's the best decision we have made. This home is exceptional in all areas, well managed and organised and has a brilliant team of caring staff who are all working as one in delivering the
best care for our mother and all the other residents. Her dietary needs are being met as she is coeliac and is putting on weight. The food she is receiving is of a very high standard and varied, it also smells amazing. The home has very high cleanliness standards due to the attention to detail of the housekeeper and her staff. The home also has an activities organiser who does a fantastic job in organising various activities and arranges outside entertainers to visit the residents.
My family and I cannot thank the staff who work at Lezayre enough for the care and nursing our mother is receiving. They all go above and beyond in the care of every one of the residents.

My nan lives here and is really happy. What a lovely home. The friendly caring vibe is evident as soon as you walk in. It is clear that the staff at Lezayre genuinely care about the residents and work really hard to provide quality loving care for the residents. It is clear they try their best to treat
them as if they were their own family and genuinely care a lot about everybody living there.

Where do we start, our stepfather has been in Lezayre, for the past few months, and on arriving he was very low. Over a period of time, we have seen a massive change in him for the better, the staff are all very caring, and encouraging. Management we’ve found nothing a problem easy to talk to and they
get things sorted, appointments etc. Food is good, his room is clean, and he is. Yes a little tired in some places, but work is in progress, the staff give the home a good atmosphere, activities guy brings out the best in all, very encouraging and fun.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
The care and kindness in the nursing home was exceptional. My mum was constantly monitored by the care staff and nurses. My mum was treated with compassion, empathy, and respect. Although mum couldn't eat much the quality of the food was excellent and every effort was made to make her things she liked.
Mum was only there for a short time about seven weeks; the room was very small but I could see much larger comfortable room. My mum was unable to get to the dining room or residents lounge so I can't comment. This is a small care home and on first impressions may seem lacking but I am so pleased my mum was placed there as the care and attitude of the staff was outstanding including the manager. Pay your staff more!

My mother was admitted to the care home from hospital and received end-of-life care for 7 weeks. She was cared for by nurses and carers who were professional, warm, friendly, and did all they could for her whilst she was there. They did all they could to maintain her wishes and dignity during this time.
We are really grateful for the standard of care and the dedication of the whole team at the home.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.703)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.703) out of 10 for Lezayre Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 8 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.903 for Lezayre Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (84 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 93 Ratings = 4.903
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 4.8 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Lezayre Nursing Home is based on 8 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 3.8
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 36 registered maximum number of service users is 7.2, which has been reached with 8 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
