Thank you Alan very much for your lovely review. CJ and his family who are so far away, appreciate your visits. He is very lucky to have a friend that cares and visits regularly. I will pass on your kind feedback to the staff. Amanda
The care by everyone is absolutely first class its a lovely family feeling and atmosphere where we feel totally relaxed but we know there is someone to ask if we've got any concerns at all. The home itself is immaculate again testament to all concerned.

All communication with Rider House has been excellent, prompt and clear. Residents are treated with dignity and respect and all of the team are helpful and have a very positive attitude, we are being cared for and welcomed as a family which is very reassuring. Excellent hygiene standards throughout. Hands on management with clear focus on resident needs. All promises have been kept and nothing is too much trouble for the hard working team.

Every time I visit my mum which isnt as often as I would like as I dont live nearby. I am always met by friendly, helpful staff who's kindness and care is shown throughout their dealings with the residents and their colleagues. I am always impressed with all services supplied and I gain extra insight when im not visiting, through Rider House's Facebook page. I look forward to seeing what the residents are up to and take delight seeing the end results of their activities. Amanda, the manager, as well as the other staff will always take time out if I have any questions and never make me feel that I am taking up their time. I am so impressed with the working relationships betweem the staff, residents and families and its a joy to see my mum so settled, relaxed and happy within this environment which is now her home #1stclass #ahappyplace
Dear Gemma. Thank you very much for your lovely review. I will ensure all the staff are made aware of the compliments. The pleasure is all ours in caring for your lovely Mum and welcoming you and your sisters to Rider House.
The staff are all very patient and kind. The food is very good. Homemade and delicious.
I have a large room with an ensuite, overlooking a garden.
Rider house is ideal for recuperating from an injury or operation in my opinion.

Thank you Judith for your lovely review. It was our pleasure to have you at Rider and I hope your recovery continues well. We would love to see you at Rider when you are next back in the UK. Very best wishes from residents and staff at Rider.
A lot of effort is put into her food & drink intake with good meals and snacks. She has eaten better since being here.
I am reassured that she is in safe hands.

Thank you very much for your kind review. It is a pleasure to be involved in the care of your lovely mum.
Everyone is very good, kind and helpful. Cleanliness is excellent, they even wash the floor every day. And the laundry is excellent if I put something out in the morning it comes back the same day. They come quickly when you press the button.

My Mum hasn’t been the easiest of residents but Rider House (and particularly the manager) have been very patient in settling her in and making her feel at home. We are very happy with the care she receives.
Thank you for your lovely review. It has been a great pleasure to have your Mum join us at Rider and be involved in her care.
Most importantly is the care and kindness shown by the staff. Nursing care has always been of a professional standard. The room occupied by my brother is small and basic but clean and well-kept.

Staff are very welcoming and so caring in the way my sister has been looked after. I have no hesitation in recommending this wonderful home. We hope to see them all again in the not-too-distant future.

I worked in care for 14 years, I've been to lots of care homes and have been very concerned over the years. Rider House Nursing Home is a really lovely place from my mum, everyone is supportive and caring. I can visit and call and ask about Mum, always a positive response. I've seen exceptional patience towards my mum and other residents their webpage always shows us the activities they do, Mum has settled. She shows no sign of distress which was paramount at home, great place for Mum 10/10.
Thank you very much for your kind words and lovely review. It is a pleasure to be involved in the care of your Mum and have the additional support of such caring families.
The care home provides excellent service. Residents are well cared for by all the staff. Rooms are really fun lovely and they all have their own personal touches.

Our sister came to you earlier in the year, having moved from a care home because of medical issues. She was having lots of problems previously, with mental health too. All of the issues have gone. She is happier and settled, and her quality of life has 100% improved. We can't tell you what this means to us, relief, yes, both just that, the care and love all of your staff give us superb. Whenever we visit, our sister has her beautiful clothes., matched with her jewellery, which for her and us is so important. Alwats that extra mile. Thank you all so very much.

Our sister moved to Ryder House in April 23, and the care, support and love we have experienced have been amazing. The whole team maintains very high standards and is always friendly and supportive. The manager keeps us all really informed of any care plan changes. We are included in all decision-making, and so is our sister. Their priority is to ensure their residents have a warm, loving environment and maintain their dignity and some control over their lives, which is so important. Thank you.
Thank you very much for the lovely review. Your sister has improved and settled so well since joining us at Rider and it is our privilege to be involved in her care.

My sister moved to Rider House in April 23. This was the best decision we as a family have made. She needs full-time care because of her progressive MS. Since moving from her previous care facility, we have noticed a major change in her moods; she has been encouraged to join in activities which she didn’t do before and is very happy and settled. The staff are all very caring and helped her settle in, and the staffing doesn’t change much, so she knows who is looking after her, which she finds very reassuring. The manager runs a tight ship, and it shows. She's always clean and well dressed, even down to matching jewellery for her outfits. Fantastic - cannot fault you in any way.
Thank you very much for the lovely review. It is a privilege to have your sister with us at Rider and to see her settle in so well. The support and dedication from all the family are outstanding, and the staff and I are very fortunate to have the opportunity to be involved with such wonderful residents and families.

"I have worked at Rider House since December 2018. During this time, I have seen immense changes at Rider House, supported by the management team and the wonderful, caring staff that Rider has. This ensures that we always strive to be the best we can, providing the love and care that we all work hard to achieve and is expected from our residents, their families, and our supportive community.I have worked as a registered nurse for over 40 years and have never had second thoughts about my chosen career path. After initially qualifying I worked in general medicine, progressing to oncology, chemotherapy, palliative and EOL care nurse specialist. This career progression enables me to provide the best care we can for all residents regardless of their needs and ill health, ensuring that they are supported to live as well and happy as they deserve. I am constantly seeking to get the best from the staff, but in a manner that recognises their value and worth so that their enthusiasm and genuine care helps us all to achieve our intended aims.”
