Leighton House Private Nursing Home

After such a difficult year with COVID I can only offer extreme praise for the care my mum has received. She has remained happy and well despite having fewer visits from the family. Management of COVID within the home with regard to visiting has also been excellent. Thank you all.

They have throughout continued to provide a safe and protected environment for him, regular consultation and communication with me, and care and support for both of us. He could not be in a better place amongst a team of better or more caring people.

Since my mother has been in Leighton House, she is well looked after, happy and safe. She enjoys all the activities they provide and the staff are caring and very attentive.

Very friendly care home which provides a happy and caring environment for its residents. Staff are always available to help and have a good relationship with the residents.

A pleasure to visit.

My mother has been at the home for over a year and a half. I am very happy with the way she is being looked after and treated. It is nice to know that she in a safe, secure and caring environment. The staff are always very welcoming.

I am extremely grateful for the care and support my mother received. She became content and relaxed and let go of her previous anxiety once she settled in at Leighton House. I am sure this is because her needs were being met which brought us great comfort. The kindness of the staff was appreciated by all the family as well as my mother. Thank you.

My husband was at Leighton House for 3 years prior to his death in February 2020. Without question, all the staff care about their residents. I witnessed many acts of kindness. Not just to my husband and family but to many others. The facilities are appropriate for the type of resident and the activities went from strength to strength. Our heartfelt thanks.

My experience of my husbands stay in your home is basically very good but it is extremely hard for me to comment 100% re. the challenging times we are presented with - hence many of the facilities were hardly able to be utilised by my husband as he was only in the home four months till his death - we were only able to visit the first month and unable to fully appreciate his overall care and life quality e.g, unable to see him enjoying gardens in fine weather or joining in with outside entertainment - the latter cancelled due to virus. The staff did their utmost best for him in unprecedented times, battling through horrendous care home/hospital covid 19 non-testing situation scandal.

We found this home to be extremely good and efficient. My husband was always clean and dressed well. He was happy there and we thought the staff were extremely kind, helpful and thoughtful.

Our mother was a resident at Leighton House for many years until her passing. We found all the staff very caring, supportive and courteous. Nothing seemed to be an issue or problem, they were always very helpful and willing to assist her with her everyday needs. All of us would like to take this opportunity of thanking you all for caring for our beloved mother.

Leighton House has provided my wife with the most excellent care and made us as a family feel very welcome, always greeted us with a smile. My wife always looked well dressed and cared for and her recent passing we were comforted and looked after by all the staff. Cannot thank them enough.

Although Mum was only a resident for a short time before she passed away, she was made very welcome and treated with great kindness. It was a great comfort to us that she spent her last few days with such lovely people. You have our heartfelt thanks.

Mum is treated with kindness and compassion in spite of her challenging behaviour. Staff are very professional and welcoming. She is cared for extremely well and I am kept informed by the nursing team and lead carer when required. Recent assessments have been carried out with full support. Mum is in the best place with all her needs being met. Thank you!

Wonderful and welcoming atmosphere. The staff are, without exception, friendly and caring to both residents and visiting family. We have really seen the positive impact this has had on Dad. Thank you so much.

It feels like a family home not clinical at all.

We are very satisfied with all aspects of her care.

My mother is well cared for and is always clean and tidy and her nails are done every week.

Since Christmas, there has been a frequent breakdown of the lift which has put added pressure on both staff and management. The recent installation of a stair lift to alleviate the problem was most welcome.

Leighton House Private Nursing Home is an excellent home. I would not want my wife to be anywhere else.
