Mum was given the most fantastic care, treated with dignity by every member of staff.
She arrived non verbal, unable to feed herself and sleeping 23 hours a day ( and had been for 10 months) within days- literally- she was up, dressed, cracking jokes and laughing. What a transformation and it was
wonderful for us to see her to interact again. We finally felt she was safe and receiving the care she deserved, if only her previous home had been even half as good. Sadly mum died 6 months after she became a resident ( at 99 & 11 months) but the care ALL the staff gave her and their compassion towards all our family will not be forgotten.

My mum has been residing at Abbey Wood Park Nursing Home for 12 months, she had a 5 grade ulcer on her back which was 8cms, it is now 2cms by 2cms approximately. The care my 95 year old mother has been receiving has been outstanding due to all staff, there care is excellent in every way. Nothing is
too much trouble, I was a HCA for 14 years and what I have seen from all staff is excellent.

Staff are excellent and very caring. Nothing is too much for them. The accommodation is lovely and always kept clean and tidy. The meals are varied and very good portions. There is entertainment regularly on various themes. The gardens are great for when the weather is good. All in all Abbey Wood Park
is a very well run Nursing Home.

Mum has only been at Abbey Wood for a few weeks, but already she seems very settled. This is 100% down to the staff, who are all just excellent.
Mum has been made to feel completely at home, and they are all lovely with her, not only her but also us as family members are welcomed every time we arrive.
The home is lovely and clean and has lots of activities to keep everyone busy each day.
We are lucky and grateful that after a few different homes, Mum has ended up here. If you get the chance to send a loved one here, do not think twice.

Reply from SUSAN CULLEN, Registered Home Manager at Abbey Wood Park Nursing Home

Thank you so much for your lovely review. I'm so glad your mum has settled here with us great lady with a fabulous sense of humour. Thank you very much from the registered home manager and team.

My mum had had a very poor care journey until now. It's been over a year to get to where we are now and Abbey Wood Park was what we dreamed of and now she is here. The staff are just wonderful, they have made Mum feel so welcome, she likes to hug them all and they are all obliging. When we arrive, she
is almost in a predicament as to whether she wants to leave them to be with us. They all call her by her name constantly, they do with everyone and talk to all the residents with love and dignity.
The home is very welcoming for us too, and although Mum has only been there for a couple of weeks, we know she will get the constant love and care she needs. It can sometimes be distressing for Mum to see us leave and even when this is emotionally hard for us, I know that she has the support she needs to get her contented again. If you are lucky enough to have a relative here, they will thrive, they will laugh, they will be helped to make the most of the time left. Thank you.

Reply from SUSAN CULLEN, Registered Home Manager at Abbey Wood Park Nursing Home

Thank you so much for your lovely words, we all love Mum she has a great laugh and always cheers us all up when she gives us a big hug and asks if are we ok. Kind regards the team.

If you are looking for the best care available for a loved one, this is the place. The care at Abbey Wood Park is exceptional.
My mother became a residentĀ four months ago and has settled really well. Following a six-week stay in hospital she was discharged with very severe pressure sores which had
not been treated. However, the moment she arrived the team immediately commenced treatment. Within a few weeks, the sores had healed. Their attentive care has resulted in Mum, at 94 years of age, starting to mobilise again, which I never thought would happen. When she has felt unwell, staff have always sought medical advice if needed. This is so reassuring. Mum talks about how wonderful the staff are and how she enjoys laughing with them. Their warmth, caring and approachable manner have given meĀ such confidence that she is truly receiving the very best of care.
I am very grateful to the manager and all the staff for providing such tender loving care. Thank you so much.

Our father was a resident at Abbey Wood care home in Fazakerley. We chose Abbey Wood because of the reviews we read on the website. Unfortunately it wasn't a very good experience for us, our father although was ill and needed 24 hour care. He was and still is sound in mind, he was aware of his needs,
unlike most of the patients at the home.
He was very unhappy at Abbey Wood, as it was a lonely place to live your last few months of life. He needed more than they could offer. We as a family decided to take him home and care for him ourselves. All I can say is do your homework before choosing a care /nursing home for your loved ones. Spend some time in the environment, go at meal times, check the care plans. Ask questions as it's important to know where you are leaving your loved ones for the rest of the days.

Reply from SUSAN CULLEN, Registered Home Manager at Abbey Wood Park Nursing Home

I am sorry to hear you felt like this for the short time your father was a resident here at Abbeywood Park. We investigated all of your complaints and gave a written reply to your queries. I feel this review is unfair and not a true reflection of the care that is provided here at Abbeywood. Should you have any future concerns please do not hesitate to contact myself. Thank you, Sue

I always find the staff very cheerful and helpful. My Auntie is well looked after. She doesn't join in with any activities as she is bed bound but they always seem to be doing a variety of different activities that the residents enjoy.
When my auntie was 90 they worked with us to organise a party
for her and the other residents and welcomed our big family group.

My mother had been in a care home before she moved to Abbeywood and wow what a difference!
At Abbeywood she was treated so well by every professional, caring member of staff. She was stimulated and encouraged to join in activities, of which there were many, she made cakes and Xmas decorations, I even
saw my mum dance, something I hadn't seen in a very long time!
The management team at Abbeywood is second to none, very hands-on, always present interacting with residents and family members, and creating a very very well-run, excellent home. The staff, from the senior carers, the activities manager to the cook are professional, friendly and very approachable, nothing and I mean nothing is too much trouble for them.
This review doesn't begin to express what a welcoming, well-run care home Abbeywood is, and to say I'd highly highly recommend it to anyone is an understatement.

I can't fault the wonderful care that my mother-in-law receives. The staff goes above and beyond and always puts the residents first. Even when my mum-in-law was admitted to hospital the staff visited her. All her care needs are met, and the home has a lovely calm atmosphere, most importantly the residents
and the staff look happy. I hit gold finding my mum-in-law a place in Abbeywood, If you are looking for a care provider for your loved one, I would highly recommend this beautiful home.

Mum has had excellent care here, she has only been here a few months, and management and staff are excellent in their care to everyone who is a resident there. Mum has mixed vascular dementia /Alzheimer's which has been rapid, and the staff now knows her well and she seems well settled there, we as
a family could not have found a better home to fit her needs. We can visit at any time nothing is a problem. Cannot thank them enough, lots of activities for residents as well as an excellent system for care in place.

My grandad's mental and physical health had rapidly declined due to the constant being in and out of hospital until we came across Abbey Wood. After 2 weeks under their care, he became happy and jolly and had a glimpse of life back in his eyes that we hadn't seen in a year. The team at Abbey Wood are
wonderful and knows each patient's needs inside and out and gets to know the family of the patient too. It's a daunting process deciding who is going to care for your loved one, but there was not a moment I doubted my grandad's care, he was the happiest he had been for a year in there. He loved the whole team. They made sure his dignity was kept in check and made his last 6 months better than we could have ever done. I couldn't thank and recommend all the team at Abbey Wood enough! There is a sense of community and family there I have not seen anywhere else. You guys do the most amazing job!

Abbey Wood has been a fantastic place of care for my father-in-law. We most certainly made the right choice as a family. Honestly, every member of staff is exceptional. Lovely and clean, they can't do enough for their residents - Christmas, birthdays, fun days, days out, and regular treats. Thanks so
much to all.

Dad has been here for almost 2 years now and we have nothing but praise for the owner and the team. After having a troublesome time when first diagnosed with Alzheimer's and having an unsuccessful stay at another home, we could not be happier. He was so confused and did not know or understand where
home was, he is now so settled, he is home. He is well cared for, has a full belly, and is always smiling and laughing. He is happy and this is all due to the amazing staff at Abbey Wood. If you're thinking about reaching out to this nursing home for a loved one, do it straight away. You will not be disappointed. I would highly recommend this nursing home. Thank you the owner and team for everything you do for Dad, and us x

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.873)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.873) out of 10 for Abbey Wood Park Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 42 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 41 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.873 for Abbey Wood Park Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (465 Excellents x 5) + (18 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (9 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 496 Ratings = 4.873

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Abbey Wood Park Nursing Home is based on 41 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 39 registered maximum number of service users is 7.8, which has been reached with 41 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
