The Lawns

They are doing a job which most of us could not do effectively or willingly.

I am particularly impressed with the care and compassion with which some staff relate to residents.

I am very impressed with all that is done. I say a big thank you to everyone.

My father has been a resident of The Lawns Nursing Home for over two years and in that time his care has been exemplary. Living some distance from The Lawns Nursing Home I have absolute trust and faith in all the staff to ensure my father's well-being. The staff are always attentive, caring and professional whilst remaining friendly and supportive. My mother who is a regular visitor is treated as part of the family and is very well supported by the staff.

Always find the staff very helpful and cheerful. Entertainments are good. Very clean and the décor is great,

It was very important for me to find Dad the best possible care when his complex medical needs required 24-hour care. The Lawns Nursing Home provided this. The way my dad was treated with dignity by all the members of the team was outstanding. I had the utmost confidence that when I could not be there to care for my Dad, Lawns Nursing Home took very good care of him. I would absolutely have no hesitation in recommending The Lawns Nursing Home as an outstanding care facility.

The few people I met were very nice indeed.

My mother was at a home that was closing. The Lawns very promptly had a room and all the arrangements were made with no fuss or worries. On arriving Mum was warmly welcomed and despite her severe dementia, the staff are kind and caring - nothing too much trouble. So much improved on her last nursing home. She always looks fresh and tidy and by the amount of shampoo and bubble bath used is regularly showered and hair washed, something that rarely happened at the last place.

The Nursing Home treat my Father with the dignity and respect that he deserves at his time in life. He always looks clean and content and enjoys the food provided. His room is kept tidy and has a lovely view that he enjoys. The staff are friendly and will try and get him involved with activities and make him smile. Thank You to all the staff concerned.

Very happy with the care my father received at Lawns Nursing Home. He was extremely grateful to them for all the care they gave to him in his 10 weeks at the home. Staff very friendly and welcoming when we visited. The food wasn't much to dad's liking but he was terminally ill so appetite was limited. In all, The Lawns is a very good nursing home which I would recommend.

I was worried when told that my husband would need to go into a nursing home, but all those worries have disappeared as this is like home from home. The home is spotless and nothing is too much trouble for the staff. There is something for the residents to do or join in activities every day.

My husband has been here in palliative care since Sept 30th, he is always treated with the utmost care and consideration. He is bed bound and has to be fed and have everything done for him. The nurses, carers and all the workers at the home make sure he is well looked after and spoken to, although he can not often give an answer because the Parkinson's has taken his speech.

My mother arrived at The Lawns on December 21st 2015, very ill straight from hospital, to be met by the staff in Xmas fancy dress, all smiling and welcoming. So the great T.L.C began over the next few weeks. She improved and loved where she was, and enjoyed her 95th Birthday in February, where the same love and care was shown to the whole family. Sadly mum passed away on May 8th and again the care, love and friendship to the whole family was outstanding at this very sad time. The whole team at The Lawns are so professional and caring. I will always remember them. With many thanks and love.

As someone who visits several care homes in my work as a catholic priest, I can say that The Lawns is one of the best. This is due to: friendly and caring staff, cleanliness of rooms and public areas. Satisfaction from families and residents who are also my parishioners. Spiritual care is a priority for the staff.

We are very impressed with the way the staff treat our friend, they all seem so kind and caring and helping her to spend her time in the home.

My mother was only in the home for about 3 weeks. In that time we always found the staff friendly and helpful and very considerate of my mother and her needs. The room was very pleasant, there were plenty of activities even though my mother never got a chance to use them.

I and my Brother and Sister were very impressed by the care given to our dad. The staff were very professional and extremely caring. They were also very accommodating when I needed to stay overnight 3 times with my dad.

I feel very happy about the care that my mother has received. The staff have been very patient allowing my mother to express herself despite her communication difficulties. A lot of effort is put into activities to enhance the quality of life of the residents. The staff are very supportive and welcoming to families and other visitors.

Many thanks to all the staff for organising a Halloween party tea for all the residents and relatives. They all wore fancy dress and decorated the dining room to create a fantastic Halloween atmosphere, even down to the plates and cups. Really wonderful. Thank you

My husband was resident at The Lawns Nursing Home from December 2014 to when he died in March 2015. At all times he was treated both kindly and with dignity. Staff at all times were compassionate and encouraging and generally concerned if he wouldn't eat or became depressed with his condition - (he had Parkinson's followed by a stroke). Couldn't fault the home, even if at times staffing levels low- appreciate though with best made places this can happen due to illness etc..
