Overall Experience
I really like the way the home makes every effort to make residents feel at home. I am able to bring my dog over to see my brother as he used to take him for a walk before he was ill. It brings him and other residents some comfort.

I am mostly impressed by the majority of staff at Abney Low. They are friendly, caring and efficient and treat Eunice well and with dignity. Because of her lack of her mobility; she often has to stay in her room. I feel there could be more individual activities for her. Because Eunice is on a minced and moist diet, some days her meals are limiting, i.e. mashed potato/1 piece of broccoli and gravy, although NOT always! The home is clean and welcoming, and in general staff are hard working and do their very best for the residents.

My auntie is bed bound but the staff always make sure she receives the best care. They treat her with kindness and genuine compassion, which gives our family peace of mind.

Dad came into Abney Low on 29/04/25. We were worried he wouldn't settle. We can honestly say it was the best thing we have done. Dad settled in from day 1. The staff are fabulous and always have a smile on their face for not just dad, but myself and mum. Always made to feel welcome. I am kept up to date on all dads' progress.
Can't thank all the staff enough for the care and attention they give my dad daily. Plenty of activities and lots of dancing.

Thank you very much for your very kind words about the team at Abney Low. They work so hard to ensure that every resident is safe and well cared for and the news that your Dad settled so well will be so reassuring to those looking for care. Plus, the dancing is just all, in a days work! Kind regards

My mum has been in Abney Low Care Home since March 25, having come from another home due to its closure. I have found the staff and the care our mum receives is excellent, always putting mum's care and safety first nothing any trouble. Big difference from the previous care home.

My father has been a resident for over 6 years. He is always treated really well and cared for. He loves all the staff, and he says they cannot do enough for him. He has never had any complaints. It's a lovely atmosphere, everyone is very friendly and smiley.

There needs to be a system to sign residents in and out of the building. Rooms need checking ft freshness daily.

Fantastic care provided by very caring and attentive staff towards Mum and Dad at Abney Low. When Dad was taken into hospital, the nurses said they had not seen such comprehensive paperwork for many years, every detail was taken into account, even to how Dad liked his cup of tea.
The staff have been incredibly thoughtful and very sympathetic to Mum and the family following Dad's recent passing.
