Review from Amanda P (Daughter of Resident) published on 19 November 2025 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
I can't recommend Edgemont View Nursing Home enough. Whether you're looking for respite or long-term care, Edgemont is a real gem. The staff are incredibly caring and hardworking, and the 24/7 nursing care gives me complete peace of mind knowing my mum is well looked after.
There are plenty of activities to keep residents engaged and stimulated, and I've learned that life doesn't end when you move into a nursing home. The residents are treated with so much respect and dignity, and they're encouraged to take part in things-no matter how small their contribution. It truly feels like being part of a family, which is so comforting during a difficult time. And yes, we share plenty of laughs too!
↩Reply from Suzie Sandor-Taylor, Manager at Edgemont View

Overall Experience
Mum went into Edgemont View for 2 weeks of respite care in February 2024 and stayed until she died on June 1st 2024. Our only regret was that we didn't find Edgemont sooner. The care, kindness and love for Mum and our family was wonderful and the dignity she had in her last days was humbling. The home-cooked food was excellent and the events, therapy, pastimes and nursing were exceptional. We cannot praise them enough.

Overall Experience
My brother went into Edgemont View on 18th March from hospital, as soon as we saw how the staff were with him we knew this was the right place for him to be cared for properly. He was very poorly and sadly was only there for a few weeks before he passed away, how we wish he had been placed in Edgemont View when he first had to go into care.
Can't thank the manager, carers and nursing staff enough for their care and compassion.

Review from David F (Husband of Resident) published on 22 September 2022 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
My wife went to Edgemont View from hospital on Pathway 3 and stayed for 6 weeks. She was welcomed and made to feel at home immediately: she had complex physical and mental problems but received the very best care and treatment from the carers and medical staff there which contributed significantly towards her progress to the point where she could return home. It was obvious to me from the time I spent there that all the staff were committed to providing a 'home from home' environment, showing an interest in the residents beyond just 'doing their jobs'. We feel lucky to have been allocated a place at Edgemont View and recommend them to anyone.

Review from Carol R (Daughter-in-law of Resident) published on 29 April 2019 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
Fortunately Edgemont View had a bed, and at that point, we didn't realise how lucky we were.
They assessed Dad at home and took him in, unfortunately his health was not as robust as he had been making out. He immediately felt secure and safe, and sadly within a short time passed away.
The staff were always polite, respectful, cheerful and outstandingly kind. My only wish is that he had entered sooner so that he could have enjoyed his stay more. There is always a registered nurse on duty, and this provides excellent continuity of care.
The lounge is happy and residents have access to a wide range of activities.
The food was good, with options for blended meals readily available.
The staff are very caring to all, with some individual residents receiving a sing-song before bedtime, a little like reading a story to a toddler. These small immeasurable acts of kindness make this well run home very special.

Thank you for an unforgettable short spell, we couldn't have wished for better care.

Review from Andrew W (Son of Resident) published on 24 January 2019 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
My mum was a resident of Edgemont View from June 2016 until January 2019. She came from hospital, very poorly. Over a relatively short period, the staff, through encouragement, managed to get her engaged with the place and after a few days days in bed, she was well enough to go downstairs into the lounge. There she was given a position in the conservatory which she enjoyed as she preferred to be a little remote from the activities going on around her. She liked plants and I was able to provide her with some to make her feel more at home. This included quite a large rubber plant.
The reason why Edgemont View is so good is the community feel the place has.It isn't the most palatial but it does have excellent care and genuine concern. The staff have a good sense of humour and engage well with the residents and visitors.
I saw my Mum most days and was always welcomed openly. Because of their good communication, problems were generally solved early before they became serious.
