Ashview Nursing Home

My Mum had a relatively short time stay at Ashview Nursing Home after being admitted back from her time in hospital for end of life care. Our family wanted to find a suitable home, which was highly recommended.

On entry to the home, our family members and guests were always made to feel welcome with a friendly greeting to whoever was on duty. There appeared to be a nice atmosphere throughout the home with the staff making this a priority for visitors who attended. The home felt warm, has a lovely garden and the facilities were good. There appeared to be a lot of team work going on and staff looked happy to be there.

The staff spent precious time looking after and tending to Mum with much warmth and care, with compassion and a professional attitude. Any communication updates and concerns our family members needed to hear, were treated with kindness and sensitivity.

The team have enabled Mum to be as comfortable and pain free as possible, which our family are eternally grateful.

The Staff welcomed the whole Family with open arms & we'll be forever grateful.

Ashview Nursing Home is a very good, well organised Nursing Home. All staff do a very difficult job very well indeed. My late mother was made very welcome and comfortable by the staff, as were all the visitors to my mother. The operation of the end of life care enabled my mother to have a comfortable, pain free stay. Overall, very impressed and very thankful.

My mother recently died and the staff were so caring and considerate. Enough couldn't of been done for us. Will be forever grateful for all the kindness and thoughtfulness the staff showed us. There aren't enough words that would show our gratitude to everyone at Ashview Nursing Home. Thank you to everyone.

I would like to thank all the staff for their care of looking after my friend in his final month. Their dedication attention and care was the best I have experienced. All the staff at Ashview Nursing Home made his last month pass with dignity and care, plus made his widow's experience more bearable.

My mother was a resident at Ashview for nearly three years before sadly passing away in September. She had a number of health problems including dementia which eventually meant that the care she had been receiving at home had become inadequate. She very quickly settled at Ashview and we soon noticed a significant reduction in her anxiety levels which had been a major cause of concern to us whilst she was at home. The nurses, carers and staff at Ashview are very competent, caring and friendly, the care given to Mum throughout her stay was second to none. Communication with the nurses was excellent and they always found time for a chat about Mum's health. For us as a family the peace of mind we had during Mum's stay at Ashview, knowing that she was safe and well cared for 24 hours a day was invaluable. Ashview is a little gem!

The staff have always been very helpful but they surpassed themselves with Mum's 100th birthday. They arranged for a room to be decorated and welcomed over 18 visitors to celebrate with her. Nothing was too much trouble and all of those who came to the home were extremely complimentary about the atmosphere and attentiveness of the staff. I cannot say how much we appreciate the care and support given and the reassurance that Mum is very well cared for is invaluable to us.

Across all grades - has been throughout the years.

A truly excellent care home.

I will forever remember the happy atmosphere at Ashview Nursing Home created by the lovely helpful, caring and professional staff. The nurses, caring assistants, kitchen, administration and maintenance colleagues all made me feel that my mother was settled, safe and properly looked after day and night. I was impressed with their use of technology together with their caring instincts to monitor my mother's health and mobility. They kept her interested by organising many themed days involving making decorations and serving special meals. The house itself is a lovely old building with a few challenges but fit for purpose and always warm and comfortable. Thank you to everybody.

From the moment I arrived at Ashview, in a very unhealthy state, I was cared for impeccably. I was treated with love, respect and dignity. I feel well and completely together. Thank you to all the staff at Ashview.

They were most compassionate and caring - we could not have found a better place for my uncle to spend his last few years.

My aunt was a resident at Ashview for over 15 months on end of life care. The staff were always on hand to discuss her condition & her care was second to none. They always displayed kindness & compassion & nothing was too much trouble. Her last few weeks were managed with care & dignity & she passed away before Christmas in peace. Thank you to all the staff & it was lovely to see two members from Ashview at her funeral. Highly recommended.

In the last few weeks, Mum referred to Ashview as her home, which I think says it all!

They made sure Dad was comfortable, pain-free and dignity in place right up until the end. A truly beautiful place with beautiful people.

My mum has settled in well after being here for 2 months. The staff are very kind and the food is particularly good. It really does feel like a big home. They are very organised taking care of all of my mum's hospital appointments and making sure that my dad can accompany her. The gardens are kept very well and are a lovely place for friends and family to sit when visiting.

Ashview Nursing Home is a home where everyone looks after each other. The staff really do care and go beyond what’s required. As well as being professional, they are friendly and supportive, taking time to get to know each resident’s individual needs. Mum arrived during lockdown and was treated with kindness, respect, and dignity. Mum bonded with staff members and residents and was happy in her new home. There is good access to a local GP practice and staff kept us informed. Families are engaged in the day-to-day running of the home. Chiropody and hairdressing services are available, Mum’s hair was the best I had seen it. There are plenty of stimulating activities and the food is particularly good and varied. When it came near to Mum’s passing her last days were managed with kindness and sensitivity. I cannot thank the staff enough. She was looked after by everyone from the reception staff to all the wonderful carers. If you are looking for a home that cares I can thoroughly recommend Ashview Nursing Home.

Staff are all very welcoming. They actually care about what they are doing and who they are looking after. Brother is always clean and tidy when I visit. He is checked on often and from what I see he enjoys his food very much. I have also seen him communicating in his own way with staff members. This is rare as he has little speech. Well managed site. Feels like a family environment with happy staff.

Ashview cared for my brother for the last three years of his life, during which time his health deteriorated due to Parkinson's disease. Throughout this deterioration, the home was able to cope with his needs and always showed kindness and understanding towards him. I would recommend this home to anyone.

My mother has been a resident for 3 years and the care is top class. The staff are great and very understanding about what my mum's requirements are. Their work over the last 2 very difficult years has been amazing.
