The majority of staff were caring and attentive, however, I do feel that there wasn't enough communication with trained staff which was sometimes necessary. In general, my stay was pleasant.

My dad was a resident at Richmond House from May 2019 to March 2020 firstly in intermediate care then a permanent resident. He was treated at all times with dignity, respect and more importantly love! All the staff were amazing, they supported both dad and myself. When we knew dad was on his final journey, we were both treated with the most loving care and compassion and the end of life care was just amazing. I can honestly say the care, food and cleanliness of dad's room were always good and Richmond House and its team are angels on earth!
Lovely staff, food amazing, can't fault. Mum looks so much healthier and gained weight. Only negative is not reg staff, don't know my mums needs eg doesn't know to sort batteries out of hearing aid or switch the TV on to DVD etc, also physio needs.

As a family, we feel confident that Mum is safe and well looked after, as does she. The nursing care she receives in respect of her nephroscopy tube is excellent. The staff and quality of care are very good indeed. However, the rooms are fairly basic and the food is quite often not to her liking.

Thank you for your review, we value all feedback as this helps us to improve our service where required. We will ensure your kind comments are shared with the team. It is good to know you feel reassured that your mother is safe and well looked after. We aim to offer the best care to all our residents and we are glad to know your mother feels she receives this at Richmond House. We are very fortunate to have great nursing colleagues at the home and we are pleased they are supporting your mother effectively. We understand the importance of environment and we are sorry you feel the room is a little basic; we would be happy to work with you to personalise this to your mother’s tastes. To help us better understand individual likes and dislikes with regard to the food offered at the home, we recently carried out a survey with a number of residents to seek their feedback on our spring menu. We would welcome the opportunity to further explore how we can better ensure your mother receives the foods she enjoys. Please do therefore get in touch so that we can facilitate this.
I could not have asked to be sent to a better place than Richmond House. The care they took in looking after me was second to none. Great treatment and great staff. Thank you very much.

Went for rehab from Wigan Infirmary when I fell and broke my hip. For just over two weeks I received the best of care while I was there. Couldn't fault the place.

Never felt so well looked after. Staff are always so happy and pleasant. Never felt I was being a burden to any of them. They were al so willing, caring, thoughtful and kind. Nothing was too much trouble. Food was excellent.

Due to Covid-19 no one could visit but I telephoned my auntie. The physio staff kept me informed of my auntie's progress and ensure everything was in place for her return home from her rehab stay.

The nursing team is first-class, a team of efficient and knowledgeable ladies. My husband has Parkinson's, a most complex illness, and his care has been faultless.
It is an extremely well-run establishment, everyone is helpful and approachable, be it management, admin, nursing or the wonderful ladies and gents of the caring team.
Mum was comfortable and as happy as possible in their care. Besides this, we always felt comfortable in these difficult times (Covid-19) and up to date, fully briefed.

Having been in Richmond House these past two weeks I would like to thank all the nursing staff, physio, carers and cleaners for their kind dedication to my care. Everyone was friendly and made me feel at ease and comfortable, so once again thank you.

I felt the room a little cold, maybe my state of health could be a reason.
