Review from Susan G (Daughter of Resident) published on 21 October 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Mum has been a resident at Church View for a couple of years as she has dementia & after a fall could no longer walk & remain in her own home.
The staff & management are fabulous and went out of their way to help mum settle and to get mum a special wheelchair to aid with her restricted ability
with sitting & to aid lifting/moving.
They always try to include mum in the activities despite her limited movement & she appears settled & happy in herself.
The addition of a private social media group is a fantastic way for me to keep in touch when I'm unable to visit daily.
The staff keep in touch with me about any appointments/flu jabs etc & any needs mum might have.
I would highly recommend Church View for your loved one.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Mum moved in January 2025. It was the hardest decision of my life as she is and always was so independent however she lost her Husband in November 2024 and her Alzhiemers symptoms meant she required more help. I really was unsure how either of us would cope with the transition and as a former nurse
myself a bit anxious. I can't praise the staff enough. Everyone there, Hayley the Manager and her Team are all kind, knowledgeable and committed to making the environment and residence homelike, stimulating age appropriate and happy. They've helped me understand how to understand my Mum's needs better and welcome visitors.
My Mum's is relaxed happy and cared for. To be honest she looks so much better in herself and has a lovely homelike environment to share with the other people who live there and has made friends. Meals home-cooked, beautiful decor. It's always spotless and staff always on hand to help people look and feel their best.

Having made the difficult decision to put my mum into a care home as she is very elderly with dementia but is receiving excellent care not just in practical terms but is treated with dignity love and compassion. In fact I would say she is thriving and the staff go above and beyond her daily care and

Review from Joanne B (Daughter of Resident) published on 29 September 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Dad is resident at Church view and what a difference this has made to him. The manager and staff are so accommodating, they all get involved in the activities and really care which is great to see. Dad is happy and settled, he takes part in activities and enjoys spending time with the other residents
which clearly shows how settled and happy he is every time we as a family visit him. They take him out on trips, he's been bowling, to the local pub and even going to the cinema which for Dad is so, so good as his social life is back again and he's enjoying himself, smiling and chatting which for Dad is such a good thing. Dad reports the food is always good and there's plenty of choice, they always give residents a choice and it's no trouble to make them something different. Rooms are clean, spacious with everything needed. All the staff are friendly and you can speak with them and ask anything and they will try to accommodate. I would highly recommend Church view.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
When the time came to find a home for our Dad it was upsetting but once I had looked round Church View I was relieved and happy knowing it was the best one for Dad. He had been poorly and on a drastic decline and needed to move him out of the place where he was at the time. So 5 months on and Dad's
a changed man chatting away eating and drinking well and getting involved in all activities. He's made friends here with fellow residents and staff. He's happy and well cared for and can't thank the manager and staff enough for everything they do. If my Dads happy then so is his family. He's settled, safe and knows this is his home now. He loves his room. We are pleased he's doing so well. Long may it continue.

Review from R B (Brother of Resident) published on 15 December 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This care home is excellent, I chose it by accident as I thought I was applying for another place with the same name, but this turned out to be a happy accident. My brother said the staff were nice from top to bottom and I can vouch that the manager runs a great facility. I have found her to be very
approachable and you feel that she genuinely cares about the residents, but she is also a fierce advocate when dealing with outside bodies and agencies on behalf of the residents. The food is excellent, the rooms comfortable and clean, and the staff friendly, caring and diligent. This is my first real experience of dealing with a care home and I can't praise Church View enough - highly recommended.

This home is one of the cleanest, nicest smelling, friendly homes anybody could wish for in their later life.

I couldn’t have asked for a better home for my mum. The care she receives is outstanding, nothing is too much trouble. After working in the care sector myself for 15 years, I’ve never met such a caring manager, she goes above and beyond for all her residents, and staff, and family! I don’t have to worry
or think about my mum when I can’t visit, we know she is in the best place possible. Do not hesitate to place your loved one in here.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The staff are all wonderful, they go out of their way to help you and also help their relatives. The home could do with a little updating but that is ongoing. They keep you updated on anything that is going on and updates about my brother that lives there, if he needs anything or is having a bad day
they ring us straight away.
His room is cosy, also my brother has a good view of the garden, he loves sitting and watching the birds in the trees and going out to feed them.
He enjoys his meals and if there is anything he does not like he tells them (in a good way) and they sort something else out for him.
He has his washing done with his own washing powder that he needs to use and it is put away in the right drawers or wardrobe (because I am fussy about that) and is always clean and tidy.
They also keep his room neat and tidy.
We know that he is safe and well looked after, we definitely would recommend the home to anyone.

My grandmas arrived at Church View at Christmas 2018.
Just survived life-threatening sepsis and she put up a fight and she was black and blue.
Six months later, she is back to full health, walking and regained her weight with the help of the nurses and doctors at Church View. Thank you.

My brother came to Church View the middle of February, he was at that time very run down and thin and looking really neglected. Since being in Church View, he has come on leaps and bounds - he has put lots of weight on and has become a very happy individual, he now becomes involved with other residents
and has a laugh and a joke with the carers, who are excellent. I would recommend this place to everyone.

A change in management 6 months ago has seen the level of care and upkeep of Church View improve substantially. Staffing levels are consistently high and a good quality providing the residents with a great support team who attend promptly, with dignity and most importantly with compassion. Still, a
work in progress but myself and my brother are very satisfied with Church View and all that they are providing for our Mum. Unsung heroes of society.

The staff at Church View are very nice and approachable and hard working. They make you feel welcome. If I had one criticism it would be to maybe try and do more activities with the residents i.e. Take them out for a walk in nice weather or to a show etc. Other than that I would recommend Church View
to anyone that asked and my mum is happy there.

I feel this residential home is friendly and welcoming establishment. My mother is well looked after and her health constantly monitored. If any problems do occur the management are quick to contact me and do whatever is needed. The most impressive feature of the home I find is that all the staff seem

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.716)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.716) out of 10 for Church View (Oswaldtwistle) Residential 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 4.916 for Church View (Oswaldtwistle) Residential Home is calculated as follows: ( (88 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 95 Ratings = 4.916
  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 Church View (Oswaldtwistle) Residential 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 30 registered maximum number of service users is 6, 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.
