My husband has only been in Riverside Care Home for 3 weeks, after being in hospital for 8 weeks, but the transformation is amazing! When he went into Riverside, he was extremely depressed and confused, and he had lost a lot of weight because he refused to eat or take any medication. I was amazed to see the video of him at their party on Friday, because he was smiling again and singing like he used to do. He is eating well and putting weight back on now, I can't believe how much better he looks now, and he has settled down really well. My son and I are really happy with the way that Gaurav and the staff are looking after him, they are doing a great job in a difficult situation with him.

Thank you so much for your kind message. Im really glad to hear that you and your son are happy and that he has settled in well. Seeing him smiling, singing again and eating better is wonderful for all of us. Its a pleasure to support him, and I truly appreciate your trust and your lovely feedback.

Overall Experience
When my Mum was admitted to Riverside she had been given just a few days, two weeks at the most to live.
The family wanted Mum to be somewhere comfortable and more homely.
Within a week her condition had improved massively. She was soon better than she had been in months.

When my Mum was admitted to Riverside she had been given just a few days, two weeks at the most to live.
The family wanted Mum to be somewhere comfortable and more homely.
Within a week her condition had improved massively. She was soon better than she had been in months.
As time has gone on she has got even better. She is now feeding herself and has not become severely dehydrated once, something that was happening regularly at home, despite having carers visit 4 times a day.
The care she gets is exemplary and the staff are all very kind and caring towards her.
I visit regularly and always made welcome.

Mum has been here for a month now and is definitely benefitting enormously from the 24 hour care she receives. I can recommend Riverside for your relatives and friends.

My Mum has been a resident of Riverside for 3 years is very settled & happy, even with dementia.She is well looked after & the Manager & staff treat her well.They encourage her to join in & try different activities & she loves the parties.They are attentative & respectful giving the family regular updates on Mums health , wellbeing, weight, appetite, sleep etc. The manager, Owners & staff are very approachable & have become a massive part of Mums world(& ours) & we are forever grateful for the care that my Mum receives from this lovely family owned Nursing Home & would definately recommend it.
I have taken a star off the rating for 'facilities' as there is no easy access to the outdoor space at the rear, although it's easy to sit out at the front entrance.

Re the food, there's always room for improvement wherever you go & that is the only reason I haven't given 5 stars. Mum eats every single meal she is given so I have no concerns at all that she doesn't like the food she receives.

She is very well cared for at Riverside she found it a big change and it took time for her to adjust but with support she is now more settled . The Staff across the board are lovely and nothing is to much trouble. There is always a choice at mealtimes & drinks on tap hot & cold what ever she wants. I am informed & updated about her care by the Manager they also have a WhatsApp Family Group keeping families upto date about Social Events which is a great idea.I feel happy & reasured knowing my Auntie

When we found ourselves in the unbearable position of needing end-of-life care for Mum, the staff at Riverside Nursing Home were everything we could wish for. They were compassionate and caring, they kept Mum comfortable and warm and free from pain. She passed away peacefully and with dignity.

My mum recently moved to Riverside from another care home. The care and support provided by Riverside is a massive improvement on the other home and mum is responding to being cared for better. From being completely withdrawn, and although still quiet, mum is talking and engaging more.
From what I have seen the main factor is that the carers are actually into what they are doing. They take a great interest in each person living here, respecting each person as an individual, and getting to know them as individuals, and their individual likes/dislikes and preferences.
This personalised "culture" has no doubt emanated from the provider's management which supports and encourages carers to take ownership of their work and to care about it and the people they are caring for.
My brother and I are very happy that mum is now living here.
Thank you to the Manager and each and every member of the Riverside Team.
