Church View Care Home

Environment is clean, nicely decorated and homely.

Following a fall my lovely Uncle came to Church View (CV). From the start it was clear that his safety, dignity and wellbeing would be at the heart of his care. Three months on, our family is overwhelmed with gratitude. The team's care, dedication and compassion have enriched his life enormously. Uncle has additional learning needs. The Team support all aspects of his wellbeing; cognitive, emotional, spiritual, physical and social. The daily activities are excellent! He looks forward to them and to telling us all about them. The team have created a wonderful sense of community, both within the home and through links with the local area. Uncle enjoys local events, Church, visits to shops, nature spots, cafés and pubs. His confidence has grown enormously. He has developed positive relationships with staff and residents. CV does far more than provide care. They recognise his abilities and interests, encourage independence and create opportunities to participate, belong and to flourish.

I would 100% recommend this establishment it is first class, thankyou carers for being who you are.

My mother recently passed away but in her 18 months living at Church View she was exceptionally well cared for and truly considered it her home. The very high standards of are and genuine nature of care staff made this a home where mum felt safe, comfortable and looked after.

He was not shaved or showered often enough. His room was not cleaned properly sometimes. My husband was sent to hospital without a carer escorting him. It was specifically requested that he be accompanied by a carer, as a family member was unavailable. It was not made clear that he would be looked after when he got to the hospital. There was a lack of communication which caused anxiety.

My mother has been a resident at Church View Care Home from 1st October 2024. She is very frail and has difficulty in walking. I am convinced that her life has been enhanced in terms of quality and longevity by the wonderful care given by the Church View staff. She looks forward to all of the activities despite her disabilities preventing her from fully participating. She really loves her carers and treats them as dear friends. Such wonderful patient and hard-working people.

What a fantastic care home, my dad was well looked after while he stayed there. All the staff were absolutely fantastic with him, they went above and beyond for him. The staff we absolutely fantastic with us as a family. Thank you all so much from the bottom of our hearts. God bless you all x

So far so good.

I have visited Church View 5 times in the last 12 or so weeks and from my first visit through to my fifth have found the care home staff really friendly, open and caring. My friend is not my father but if he was I would be happy that he is there. I visit another two friends who are in the care home environment and I can honestly say out of the three homes I visit this appears to be number one. As you can see by the ratings I have put satisfactory for value for money as to the cost of my friend's care.

I am back home and live on my own. I feel the staff all communicate well therefore care at Church View is very good.

I have found Church View Care Home a very pleasant environment, all the patients appear to be very content, the staff are all excellent and all rooms are spotless. My Mother appears to be content and looked after which is reassuring to us.

It is a beautiful home with kind staff.

Excellent staff who provide information when asked.

The staff are very helpful and caring. The rooms are clean and well looked after and Mam says the bed is very comfortable. The food is sometimes hit or miss for my mother but the staff ensure she does eat.

Clear, professional, and understanding staff with myself and my Father.

My husband has been here for five months. He has a nice room, in which he is comfortable, especially his bed. He likes the food, and the staff are very nice to him. I wish there was more interaction between him and the staff. The staff are so busy, there's not much they can do to help pass the time away for him. They are always on the move and never have time to chat much with the residents, which is quite sad. They are always short-staffed, which is wrong for the staff and residents.

The rooms not having an individual W.C. is a slight downside, but more than offset by the positives.

Church View Care Home is a lovely, friendly place to be. I enjoy visiting to see how wonderful the people in it are being cared for. The staff are so caring, the food is fantastic. Activity time is great with the lady who runs them! It's lovely here.

My Mother is very happy at Church View, we were very concerned about Mum managing in her flat. We couldn't be happier now she is here and safely cared for. Mum is happy the majority of the time. She suffers from depression and staff always manage to treasure her and work through things.

Grandma is extremely happy at Church View. There is always so much for her to do. Groups, singers, and children from local schools. Myself and my children are always made to feel so welcome. We can have dinner with Grandma and it is a pleasure to come here. The majority of staff are extremely supportive and are happy to make time and make us feel welcome.
