My mother has been a resident at Rivington Park for over 3 years and requires total nursing care. She is not in a position to comment herself. Her care has always been provided to a very good standard and she has been made to be comfortable all the times. Her condition is regularly monitored and staff are always friendly and informative as are senior staff and management. The reception area is always welcoming. Overall impressions are very positive.

Overall Experience
Whilst some of the staff were excellent, frequent changes in management was an issue.
Eg few receipts for fees were ever issued.
The main concern was the lack of security of personal items - placed in a safe but then found to be missing and no explanation given.

Similarly, after my relative's death, his gold signet ring was removed and never recovered.

Rivington Park is a relaxed, warm and friendly home, which enabled Dad to settle in with ease. There were frequent activities taking place which he enjoyed, but also quiet areas if he just wanted to relax. The staff go that extra mile to make it feel like home not just for the residents but family and visitors too. We cannot thank them enough for the care and services offered at a most difficult time.

My father recently resided at Rivington Park and I cannot praise the staff enough, from the careers through to the admin staff, my father was treated with the utmost kindness,dignity and respect at all times.
The staff were always available to talk to either in person or on the telephone and they kept us informed at all times about my father's care, always letting me know when they had arranged a doctor's visit etc.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Rivington Park Care Home to anyone - it may not be the biggest or most imposing care home but the staff more that make up for that, I can never thank them enough for the excellent care that my father received
