Mam came into the care home beginning of December 2024 and has been cared for since her arrival. Cannot fault the carers or any other members of staff, they have been great with Mam. I would not have put her in Byker Hall Care Home if I was not satisfied, it has always been a good care home. She has been much happier since she came.
Very good staff. Good entertainment. Very happy to have my mother-in-law here and I have got my mother in Byker Hall Care Home, she is very happy.

My brother and I were worried and quite reluctant to put my mam into care but once we came to Byker Hall, we felt relief that Mam was going to live in a special place. Apart from great care, I am amazed at all of the entertainment and fun everyone has.

My mum was here for about five years, sadly she passed away in July but over the last five years, we couldn't have asked for anything better. She was cared for as if she was part of the family. It was always a friendly place to go into with lots of activities and entertainment for the residents to...
Not only did they care for my mum but for my family too, we stayed with her for three nights in her room. They constantly came in to check we were ok as well as Mum. They provided us with a care pack with support sheets, coffee, tea, toiletries and much more. Such a caring touch for any family.
Amazing, caring staff throughout, including carers, cleaners and admin staff.
My mam was well cared for in Byker Hall Care Home. She was very happy and settled there and classed it as her 'home'. The staff were amazing, going over and above their normal duties. She was well looked after with all her needs being catered for. She has since passed away but we know she was happy...

My mother-in-law was in Byker Hall for nearly five years. Initially, her dementia was such that she was able to participate in all activities, even helping wash up! She was taken to the pantomime and excursions out for ice cream. She loved the staff and felt very secure. Towards the end, when she was bedridden, the staff were extremely attentive, even though, at times, there weren't enough of them. When she passed recently, they were very sensitive and clearly upset to lose her. They are amazing people.
She always said...
She always said she felt safe and well looked after there.
Her room was fine, good facilities, any issues or requests we had were always dealt with in a timely manner.
She loved taking part in the arranged activities, especially ones that involved music and dancing, of which there seemed many.
As her illness progressed, her care became more 'hands on', but always first class from everyone.
As our mum's illness progressed, the staff couldn't be more helpful. They allowed us to stay in her room, brought us beds, and made sure we were comfortable.
Sadly, our mum passed away in July, but again, the management and staff were so professional and caring, and a massive help.
We have nothing but praise for everyone at Byker Hall.
The staff are perfect. Home-from-home experience. Staff are all caring. The management is very helpful. Mam loves it here.

Thank you for taking the time to share your review, we really appreciate the feedback. We have addressed the problem with the banging door and we are sorry to hear that it has annoyed your dad, if he experiences any more issues, do not hesitate to bring this to our attention. There is always management around to speak with. We are delighted to confirm we have revamped our activities planner too so I'm confident we will see an improved score in the future. We had a Pride event at the weekend where all residents attended and had great fun. We have many events and trips planned.
Found communications a bit challenging, i.e. asking for chiropodist and whether they have been.

My mum loves the staff on day and night shift, they are awesome people, she calls them her family which she's okay with and who she trusts the most. Even staff like her humour, she's always lighting up their day and night, that's who she is.
