The Prospect House philosophy is that the individual should be at the centre of everything. The home is led by the Home Manager and a band of RGNs and RMNs with many years' experience in caring for the physical health needs of older people.
Dementia care is provided in the Garden Rooms. The Home also operates a nursing unit named Davenport and a quieter unit for those with more complex nursing needs named The Maple Suite. Dividing the home into smaller clusters of residents helps to stimulate a sense of familiarity for residents and, for staff, promotes a deeper understanding of residents' needs.
Prospect House aims at excellence and continuous improvement at every turn - from daily activities to catering, from top-notch training to building maintenance.
Transparency and communication are held to be very important and the home is well worth a visit.

Staff are very friendly and very supportive and accommodating with regard to my own disability. The care my husband receives is further hindered due to his own disability which must make things (especially) communication difficult. Despite this staff have overcome this and the care my husband receives is good.

The nursing staff (senior) communicated with me clearly and regularly - as did the visiting GP's occasionally. Compared to all other nursing homes I have visited both professionally and socially I found that standard of care, communication, and organisation to be excellent. I am a senior palliative care nurse myself so was delighted to discover Prospect House looking after my sister.

Excellent facilities and the room provided was homely and clean. Staff made an effort to welcome and show warmth and affection to my sister. At all times, they were effective to my sister and very helpful to my husband and me. The food was excellent and varied. Facilities for physiotherapy, occupational therapy and hair care with lovely staff providing these services.
All I can say is that Prospect House is a true care home in every way.

It is always difficult to place your mother into care. I can honestly say I felt comfortable leaving her at Prospect House. The staff were very caring. It felt like a lovely home to live in. My mother seemed to relax and was content which was an indication of how she felt.

My father was cared for beautifully at Prospect House in his final weeks, at all times with dignity and respect. The restrictions in place due to Covid-19 were handled very efficiently by the staff, at the same time maintaining the high standard of care.

My mother had 2 weeks of respite care following a fall at home. She enjoyed her stay at Prospect House. All the staff were lovely and she really enjoyed the food. The staff were all kind and thoughtful. She felt safe and so well cared for.

My late husband was in Prospect House for six years. When I became in need of help, this is where I came. During my husband's stay and my visits 3 or more times a week. During that time I was on several committees and helped with authorities. My current stay is for respite care, should I need more constant care this would be where I want to be. Not only am I treated with dignity but after so long a time I am treated as an extended family.

In these strange covid times, access was limited to the home, but at no time were we concerned that the dedication, care, expertise and love was not being given to my mother. The communication was first class also. Sadly my mother passed away in October, but we have the peace that she passed away with dignity and love of your exceptional staff. We cannot express how deeply grateful we are for the care and love given to my mother in the four months that she was with you.

Thank you for the lovely review of our Care home and the positive comments made regarding the care your mother received while she was with us. Even though your mother was only with us for a short time, we are very grateful that we were given the opportunity for your mother to stay with us. It was an honour and a pleasure for us to care for her. We are also grateful to all our wonderful staff for their hard work and dedication while working in these strange Covid times.
I have lived here for almost 2 years and have been very happy. The staff are all very helpful and cheerful and is too much trouble. One is encouraged to join the various activities, including keeping fit.

Thank you so much for a lovely review, it is always a pleasure to receive such positive feedback. We are so pleased you are enjoying your stay and all our staff really appreciate such supportive comments.
During a very difficult period, the care home continued to provide a high standard of living conditions for a group of extremely frail patients. Activities to keep us more ambulant continued through this time and puzzles to keep our brains working.

We are so glad your father is settling in well, and we are very grateful that we were given the opportunity for your father to stay with us. A lovely and positive feedback, thank you

Prospect House is an established nursing home with an excellent reputation for providing quality care. Our choice as we were, and continue to be, impressed by the attention to the little things that make this a real home from home. Friendly and approachable staff and exemplary clinical and nursing care, together with an inclusive approach to service delivery (residents and relatives are encouraged to contribute and be involved). The result is a happy and safe home for our parent.
Many thanks for your kind words, the team at Prospect House work hard to deliver high-quality care to our residents and your feedback is very important to us.
All of the staff are extremely efficient in all matters. The care has been particularly good, food excellent. Always obliging and courteous. Nothing is too much trouble could not speak too highly.

I visited the home at the beginning of March to see my Great Aunt and found all the staff to be very friendly and helpful. The home is like one big family and my great Aunt speaks highly of all the staff. The home has lots of activities going on for all different abilities which is fantastic to see.

Many thanks for the lovely review of our home. The staff all work hard at Prospect House and it is lovely to get such positive feedback from families when visiting.
I am perfectly satisfied with the care and activities provided. My room is quite spacious and has access to the courtyard when I can sit and read etc if the weather permits.

Thank you for your kind words about our care home. All our staff have enjoyed caring for you during your respite stay with us and wish you well once you return home.
Mum was admitted to Prospect House with a serious illness in early January 2020. The staff were unbelievably kind, courteous, professional and caring. Mum wanted for nothing during her last days. I cannot speak too highly of Prospect House or the people who work there.

Many thanks for your kind words, we were very pleased to be able to offer a place to your mother. I am delighted to note, that even if the stay was only for a short time, the kindness of the staff shows through.
Wonderful home and staff that really cared for my mum. She was always clean and warm with her clothes always freshly laundered. The food was excellent and nicely presented. I can't recommend Prospect House enough.

It was an honour to care for your mother and to be a small part of your family at this time. Thank you for your wonderful words.

Having obtained her Adult Nursing degree from Chester University, Tracy gained extensive nursing experience working in a variety of settings before joining Prospect House originally in 2019 as Clinical Lead, further strengthening the management team at that time.
After more than three years of dedicated and successful service, Tracy left Prospect House in 2022 to take a career development post as Head of Compliance for another organisation, where she focused on ensuring compliance with relevant quality procedures and legislative requirements.
Having gained further compliance experience, we were delighted to welcome Tracy back to Prospect House in 2024 as Home Manager, bringing to her new role a keen quality and compliance focus together with a passion for delivering the highest standards of person-centred care for our residents.
