Over all time Mariners Park Care Home has 44 reviews.
Mum needed 24-hour care and we could not have asked for a better place, the staff are all amazing with Mum she has really settled.
We feel we can sleep at night knowing Mum is in safe hands and looked after 24/7.
The home is so lovely and clean and has amazing views over the river, it's so nice.
Thank you to everyone here at Mariners, Mum is loving it here with you all.

Thank you for looking after my dad so well.
Thank you for the great feedback. We had a great time with Dad and loved hearing his singing.
Special mention to one member of staff who has gone above and beyond. Thank you.
Thank you for such a lovely review. It is great to know that Dad's admission during lockdown hasn't caused too much distress for you all.
Both parents went into the Mainers, initially for one months' respite after spending three months during lockdown with me. They are both in their eighties but have quite different care needs. It was extremely important that having been married for 62 years they remained together, despite their individual differing needs. Mariners have done such a fantastic job. They both wish for it to become their forever home. Please note the only reason activities, rooms socred good is in the current context I can't comment.
My mum is a resident at Mariners Park and the staff are wonderful with her. She can be very demanding, at times. My late father might have been Senior Captain but mum was definitely the Commodore. The staff always go the extra mile, smiling and keeping her happy, no matter what.
The rooms and communal spaces are excellent and the views over the River Mersey are amazing.
There are lots of interesting activities which included a party with a live singer for V.E. day which given the chaos of COVID 19 was amazing and thoroughly enjoyed by my mum. The carers are unbelievably attentive. The accommodation is clean and sweet-smelling and in beautiful surroundings.
During COVID 19, staff also set up Whatsapp for video calls so we could see mum during lockdown.
They continue to make things as safe as possible during these very difficult times.
If you are looking for a place for your loved one, you really should look at Mariners Park.
Thank you so much for this great feedback. Jane Davies, Registered Manager.
They have continued to care for Dad with respect, consideration, kindness, thoughtfulness and professionalism. They have managed this challenging situation effectively and professionally. They have communicated in an open and honest way that gave us confidence. They enabled Dad and I to stay in touch through the use of technology.
There is no doubt that the team know and treat Dad as an individual and respond to his needs as such. The ethos is to say yes and find a way to make things work.
If you are new, trust them, allow them the time they need to get to know you/your loved one and vice versa. They are a truly wonderful team of hero’s.
Thank you, thank you, for the work you do and the kind, caring and professional way in which you do it.
You go above and beyond and all deserve medals, at the very least.
Thank you so much for your kind review.

Jane Davies,

Mariner' Park Care Home has proved to be an absolute godsend for my mother. She had been fiercely independent but after several falls and a broken hip, it was clear that she could not cope at home, even with a high level of support. Mariners Park has provided the care she needs while understanding her requirement for external stimulus (sometimes as simple as getting her out in the sun and fresh air) and has also been most welcoming to family visitors (when visits were allowed pre Covid-19 lockdown). When Mum tested positive for Coronavirus, Mariners Park took this in its stride. I am happy to say that Mum has recovered well and that after a supreme effort by the manager and staff the home is now clear of the virus. Mariners Park Care Home is somewhere I would go myself, if I had to, and I can't recommend it more highly.
Jane,
Registered Manager.
I cannot praise all the staff at Mariners highly enough. My parents moved in late last year and have been very happy and settled and as an ex-nurse myself I know to some extent the challenges of their jobs but the staff are all excellent. The food is amazing, the home is very clean and the care staff are always very professional. All the staff are very capable and friendly at the same time. During this current situation, they have been brilliant and quickly reacted to the challenges. My Father, unfortunately, passed away in April, not due to Covid 19, and the staff have been brilliant in helping the family communicate with my Mum. I cannot praise them highly enough, I cannot imagine how challenging it has been but they have certainly risen to and above the challenge.
Many thanks for the kind feedback.

I cannot recommend Mariners Park Care Home highly enough. My Dad and my Aunt are residents there. Wonderful staff who go the extra mile always, no matter what. The rooms and communal spaces are amazing. There are lots of interesting activities. The carers are unbelievably attentive. The residents are immaculately clean, and in beautiful surroundings. Our family feel very lucky indeed that we managed to get my Dad and my Aunt into Mariners Park. Phew! All I can say is it's by far the best place we viewed in Liverpool and North Wirral. By far! During the disaster that is Covid 19, Mariners Park staff have more than risen to the crisis. They have made things as comfortable and safe as could possibly be done. If you are looking for a place for your loved one, you really should look at Mariners Park.
Many thanks for this review of our service.
Kind Regards
The quality of care at Mariners Park care home is excellent. Members of staff are committed to maintaining high standards while being warm, friendly and caring, both towards the residents and the families of the residents. I am confident that my mother is safe and is receiving high quality and respectful care. Mum consistently remarks that she is very happy in the care home.
Many thanks for this review of our service.

During the COVID-19 outbreak, we were kept well informed throughout. The home was shut down to visitors. They did have an outbreak but it was well contained and they were given the all-clear at the end of April.
We are very pleased with the home, keep up the good work.
Thank you so much for this feedback.
I cannot underestimate how I feel that my Father is in the safest and most caring environment in this care home. Given the situation in the country, I feel that all the staff, many of whom we have known for many years, know and understand his needs and care deeply about his wellbeing. I am confident that he is in a safe place thanks to the staff and the ethos of 'proactively undertaking work as part of a team'.
Thank you so much; for this kind feedback. I will share your review with the team.
Many thanks,Registered Manager
Very good and helpful respite stay.
Everyone has been absolutely wonderful, everything we could have asked for.
My Father has been a resident for almost 3 years and I have no hesitation in recommending. This place should be a beacon and example to all care homes and genuinely can't praise them enough for the standard of care my father has received and it would be no exaggeration in my belief that my father would be no longer alive had he not moved here.
He is 91 with dementia but I can still communicate with him and know when he isn't right. He feels like he is at home which is a major plus in his overall wellbeing. The staff are attentive and actually talk to him and not just treat him like an object they are forced to work with. This is my honest experience and have not been coerced to write this review.
Wow what a lovely review.. Thank you I will share this with the team.
My Mum has been a resident at the Mariners Park Care Home now for 3 years. She has no complaints about the standard of care that she receives and the family are satisfied that she is living in a caring and safe environment. Staff are very friendly and communicative over any issues concerning Mum's health and welfare and any concerns that we raise are always promptly addressed.
Many thanks for this review.
The Building is Beautifully located overlooking the River Mersey. The layout is ergonomically designed and the rooms are well appointed.
Mariners Park care home is spotlessly clean and constantly monitored. Food standards are high and meals are varied and interesting.
But where Mariners really excels is in the amazing quality of its staff.
They Cared for my Uncle in the later stages of his life, he had advanced dementia.
The care they gave him was first class. They really cared and they gave him back his dignity.
I will be forever grateful to all at Mariners Park for being the true Angels that they are.
Thank you for such a thoughtful review.
Kind Regards,
Jane
My mother who is in failing health has been a resident at the care home for over 2 years. During this time she has been treated with the greatest of care and dignity by the supportive staff and whilst it's not her own home, the staff have made every effort to make her stay as comfortable as possible. From our family experiences, I would have no hesitation in recommending the home to others to support and care for their family members.
Many thanks for your kind review!
Jane
My uncle lived at Mariners Park Care Home for two and a half years. He had suffered a severe stroke and needed a high level of care. I don't believe he could have been in a better place. The care home itself was always spotlessly clean but more importantly, every member of staff was friendly, helpful and caring. They treated him with dignity and affection and kept me up to date with his situation. They took the time to explain things and answer my questions. My family and I are very grateful to everyone there for everything they did for him.
Both parents have been residents since 2017 accommodated in an adjoining room! The staff are amazing treating them like their own family, nothing is too much trouble and they go out of their way to meet any requests. Activities are varied and residents are always encouraged to join in from bingo to organised outings. Thank you for all that you do and the support you have personally given me. Very much appreciated.
