Review from Kerry (Sister of Resident) published on 2 May 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I would highly recommend this care facility to anyone who wants the best for there family. The staff at Harry Priestley House are always welcoming and offer the highest standard of care whilst respecting the dignity of the residents. They like to keep you up to date on your relatives activities, any
health issues, also their individual care plan and needs with regular updates sent by post if you're not able to visit. They send regular invitations to group activities within the grounds of the home. Working in the care industry myself and having a resident at Harry Priestley House since they first opened, this home is the best I have come across with my 11 years experience working in care. The resident's bedroom can be made to feel like their own, they offer holidays and excursions catered to the resident's capabilities. They are all like a family, both the residents and the staff. They always have lots of staff on duty at the home, so you never feel a resident's needs are not being met.

I recently attended a coffee morning at HPH and as usual everything was lovely. Every time I visit the house is always immaculate and and well run , the coffee morning from what I saw was a huge success. I am pleased to see all the staff have a great rapport with everyone who lives there, I would recommend
HPH to anyone without a doubt.
