This home is better than I could have expected. One hears horror stories about care homes but this exceeds all my expectations. Memory Lane staff are all first class and treat patients with respect, honesty and friendliness. So as long as these extremely high standards continue, I'd have no doubts, were I to live here myself, about the loving care offered. Thank you staff!
Thank you very much, Mr B, your lovely comments will be passed onto the staff.
All the staff made it feel like home for our dad.
As a family, we could rest knowing dad was so well looked after by all the staff, who became friends to us all.

We were honoured to care for your father and to have the pleasure of not only his but your and your brothers company. Thank you for entrusting Dad into our care. The staff loved Dad very much.

The care home was a lovely place but more importantly the staff, and I mean all the staff, were lovely towards my dad. They treated him with dignity and absolutely nothing was too much trouble. All enquiries about my dad's progress were explained to us in a manner that we could understand.
I really cannot praise and thank them highly enough.A Big Heartfelt 'Thank You' to them all.
It was our pleasure to care for your father and you are always welcome visitors to the Home. Thank you for your lovely comments, I will pass them to all the staff.
Residents and 'family' are looked after 24 hours. Nothing is too much bother. I can go home at night with peace of mind (thanks). Made a lot of new friends.

In the 3 months my mother has been at Glenroyd, we have found the rooms, canteen etc to be kept really clean. The food has been excellent and most of all, the staff are very caring and pleasant in what is sometimes not so nice conditions. Well done to all staff from a very pleased son.

Mum was well looked after, she became more confused with her surroundings. This was not a problem to any of the management or staff. Safeguarding steps were taken fast for Mum's benefit, calls made to the family also done straight away. This resulted in Mum being moved to a safer unit once the family consented. We were very happy how Mum's wellbeing and safety was managed. Staff are friendly, helpful and very supportive. This was for respite and we have already rebooked.
Thank you so much for your lovely comments. We look forward to caring for Mum again.
My Mum is very happy living in Barchester Glenroyd and as a family we are. She has been here for 4 years! The staff and management that are here now are brilliant, friendly, helpful, nothing too much trouble. We are happy with the care Mum receives and very thankful that we still have her with us.

We have been in Glenroyd care with my Father for the past two years. We cannot fault the cleanliness of the home, from the rooms, kitchen, dining and sitting areas. The food is very good. The personal care and hygiene provided by the care and nursing staff is excellent. There are no smells that you...
The manager keeps a very well run home. She and all the staff are a credit to your organisation.

My uncle is moving to a new home soon when a place is available and I will be applying for CHC funding but the paperwork hasn't been kept up to date.
Thank you for your comments, which we will use to continually improve our service. As the new General Manager, I trust we will address the concerns raised and continue to provide a high standard of care at the Glenroyd Nursing Home.

Hello, my name is Yvonne, and I am honoured to be the General Manager at Glenroyd Care Home.
My journey with Glenroyd began as an agency nurse, and I quickly became attached to the home’s warm, family-like atmosphere. After consistently returning for over a year, I officially joined as Deputy Manager in June 2023 and was thrilled to be promoted to General Manager in November 2024. The sense of community here is truly special. The sense of community here is truly special.
Previously, I worked as a Ward Sister at Southport Hospital, working on an acute frail elderly ward, an acute medical short-stay unit, and specialising in diabetes care. Caring for the elderly is my passion, and I am privileged to build meaningful relationships with our residents and their families.
As part of the management team, my priorities include ensuring the safety of our residents, providing person-centred care, and enabling them to lead fully enriched lives. We are committed to delivering the highest quality of care, ensuring that each resident feels at home and their families have peace of mind knowing their loved ones are in caring and professional hands.
I look forward to welcoming you to Glenroyd very soon!

Hello, my name is Adele, and I am the Deputy Manager and Clinical Lead at Glenroyd. I have worked in healthcare for 22 years, having started at the age of 18 as a Healthcare Assistant and later as a Senior Healthcare Assistant while completing my nursing training. From a young age, I always knew I wanted to become a nurse, and it was a long-standing career goal of mine.
I qualified as a nurse in 2009. Throughout my nursing career, my main background has been in nursing homes, where I have developed a strong passion for caring for older adults. I am committed to making a positive difference to our residents' daily lives by providing safe, compassionate and person-centred care.
Outside of work, I spend my time looking after my two daughters and their pets.

Hello, my name is Stephen, and I am the Head of Nursing Community at Glenroyd. I began my career as a children’s nurse in Nigeria in 2018 and worked there for three years across a variety of departments, including the wards, A&E and neonatal intensive care.
I joined Barchester in February 2023 at Edgbaston Beaumont Care Home in Birmingham as a Night Nurse, a role I held for a year before relocating to Blackpool. I enjoyed working for Barchester so much that I transferred to Glenroyd in April 2024. I initially started here as a Night Nurse and was later promoted to Head of Nursing Community as a Day Nurse. This role has given me the opportunity to further develop my skills and support the General Manager with day-to-day responsibilities.
I am passionate about supporting and maintaining our residents’ wellbeing, and I am proud to work alongside such a professional team.

Hello, my name is Angie, and I am a Registered Nurse here at Glenroyd. I was born and raised in the Philippines, where I completed my Bachelor of Science in Nursing, a four-year degree, graduating in 1990. Shortly after graduating, I began my nursing career at Cotabato Regional Medical Centre in Cotabato City, where I was proud to serve as a Registered Nurse for 10 years.
Seeking new opportunities and professional growth, I moved to Belfast, Northern Ireland, and began working in a nursing home. I then relocated to England, where I continued my nursing journey, gaining valuable experience in various nursing homes and providing compassionate, person-centred care to older adults.
Throughout my career, I have remained dedicated to delivering high-quality nursing care with kindness, professionalism and respect. Outside of work, I enjoy singing, dancing and socialising, as I believe building meaningful relationships brings joy and enriches life. Above all, I cherish spending time with my family, who are my greatest source of love, strength and inspiration.

Hello, my name is Hannah, and I am the Head of the Residential Community here at Glenroyd. I began working at Glenroyd in September 2014 as a Carer, before progressing to a Senior Carer and then Unit Lead. In my role, I ensure that residents’ support plans and risk assessments are completed, enabling our care team to deliver safe, effective and person-centred care. I also carry out pre-admission assessments and support new residents as they move into the home, making sure both they and their families feel reassured and supported throughout the process.
One of the most rewarding parts of my job is welcoming new residents into the home and seeing them become part of the Glenroyd family. I really enjoy getting to know the residents and their families, and building those important relationships.
Away from the home, I enjoy spending time with my dog, Ted, who is a Golden Retriever. I also enjoy following my football team, Tottenham Hotspur.
