Review from C S (Respite Resident) published on 15 April 2021 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

I was only at Richmond House for 17 days following an accident from which I broke my femur. Everyone cared and looked after me very well. No complaints. Taught me to get up and down the stairs so I was able to go home and cope on my own. The carers came for two weeks when I went home. They were very good and kind.

Review from Michele B (Daughter of Resident) published on 14 April 2021 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

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!

Overall Experience

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.

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.

Overall Experience

The manager, nurses and all the staff, every one of them, has been good to me, and all the patients. They really do go above the call of duty. Everyone has cared for me since I have been here, even the night staff. I have been here for 2-week. I will tell everybody how good Richmond House is to me; they are the best.

Overall Experience

I would like to say a very big thank you to all the staff at Richmond House for their care and encouragement when I was feeling down. The physiotherapy there has helped me walk again. The kitchen staff set all the lovely food. The nurses and the night staff thank you for getting me through this and now I am well enough to go home.

Overall Experience
My auntie stayed at Richmond House Care Home and its staff were 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.

Overall Experience
Under extremely difficult times the Richmond House team have shown superb care.
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.

Overall Experience
A very supportive stay, lots of staff working long shifts. Keeping an overall view of my well being. Being in a light diet limited the choice, but always given a choice.

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

My mum's experience in Richmond House from 10th - 25th February 2020 was a positive one. All the staff were polite and helpful and informative during her stay. They assisted her with all her needs. The food was good, hot and well presented. Drinks were brought round regularly. Mum was in Richmond House in an intermediate care bed allocated by the NHS.
