I live some distance from, Mum and do not get to see her as frequently as I would like. I am confident that Westmorland Court Nursing Home take care of my Mum and inform me of her care, medication and general welfare. I am confident the home look after my Mum, I am always welcomed when I visit and the staff greet me by name and take time to ask about my family as well as discussing Mums needs.. Mum is very happy with ALL the homes' staff, who are attentive to her needs. The activities on offer at the home are understandably based within the home itself. Mum is somewhat reluctant to engage in the activities and this is why I have only given this section 3 stars. The home does have a minibus which it would be good to see used a little more often. If Mum does have an appointment elsewhere the home are able, to take Mum to these appointments on my behalf, as I am not able to easily get to the home to take mum. I would recommend Westmorland Court as a safe and welcomming Care Home.

I couldn't praise this Nursing Home enough for the wonderful care they had given my beautiful Mum who recently passed. They treated her with such care and dignity and I could see that also with the other residents every time I visited which was often. The minute you walked thru the door, you were made to feel like a friend/part of the Family. I will continue to stop by to say hello as the one good thing with Westmorland is, they have had the same Manager for years (shes a one off!!) most of the staff have been there a long time, not a huge turnover as in other homes, so the residents see the same familiar faces which is so important. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for making the last 2 years of my Mums life so special.
It was a privilege to care for your beautiful Mum, and we are deeply honoured that you trusted us with her care during the final years of her life. Knowing she was treated with...

I cannot fault the care and support my grandmother has had since coming to the home. They have provided exceptional care and helped the healing process for a long term problem. They listen to her and show genuine empathy which helped her settle in really quickly.

My father was taken into a care home recently, and the transition was very good. From the moment we arrived, the whole family were made to feel welcome. The manager and staff treated my father with care and compassion and made him feel at ease. Nothing is too much trouble and has a lovely, homely and friendly atmosphere, not clinical, which has helped him to settle in well. Any problems are quickly dealt with. Entertainment is also very good, keeping residents stimulated.
Thank you very much for your encouraging review. It's reviews like yours that make what we do worthwhile. We hope that your dad will remain settled in the care home.

I am currently staying at this home. I am a physically disabled lady age 60 and a full-time wheelchair user. I find the place clean, well-run and well-equipped. Although primarily a care facility for dementia sufferers there are plenty of places for me to sit and enjoy the facilities away from others if I want to or sit in the gardens. I am also able to go out during the day and enjoy Arnside. I find the staff helpful kind and caring people. I can also administer my own medication as that is what I do at home. I am glad the staff are able to care for me in a way that enables rather than enforces disability and so respects the people they care for. So I recommend this facility. They even have a jacuzzi bubble bath which I have enjoyed.
Thank you very much for your kind comments about the care we provide to the people in our care. It's people like you who make the job worthwhile.
