Rushyfields Residential and Nursing Home

I cannot fault the care and attention my mother receives, the staff are friendly and nothing is too much trouble.

The staff at Rushyfield are great in every way.

All residents are cared for extremely well. My grandmother very much enjoys her time here. All members of staff are lovely and very informative.

Due to COVID everyone has kept safe and happy.

My sister-in-law has resided here for 18-months, and I find she has settled well. She is taken care of very well, and the staff, seem to be very motivated towards her care.

My husband spent the last six months of his life at Rushyfields. He was registered blind, had dementia and some nursing needs. He had been in three other homes and this one was by far the best. It is the staff who make a home. As his wife, I was able to visit my husband and take him out at any time of day. Staff were pleasant and helpful, always cheerful and listened to what I had to say, and took it on board. The nursing staff were excellent and were well prepared with medication in advance. They made my husband's death as comfortable and peaceful as possible, and for this, I am very grateful.

The staff could not be better.

Nursing home staff very helpful and friendly. Overall rooms clean and tidy. Activities good, good food choice and residents seem happy and content.

Since my wife entered the care home on the 1st of July, I have seen a marked improvement in her physical wellbeing. The staff keep us informed all the time of how she is, even if it's only a scratch on her arm. I find she is well looked after in a caring way.

Kind, thoughtful and caring staff. Improvements happening all the time from outside sitting patio to planters and the planting of border summer plants. The home does try really hard to make residents feel settled and happy.

Fully behind all of the staff, they are all helpful, extremely caring, knowing everyone's names. Cannot fault anyone, they are great, from the manager to the cleaning staff. We all think they should be given a medal for all the work they have been doing.

My mum has been a resident at Rushyfields since Sept 2019 and I have been extremely happy with the care she has received. The staff have managed remarkably well during the recent difficult circumstances and have kept me up to date with how my mum is through phone calls and newsletters, along with entertaining FaceTime calls with my mum. Although I couldn’t be there for her recent birthday they entertained her with games and a cake. Whilst it was a very difficult decision moving my mum into a nursing home, Rushyfields have made it a smooth transition for both my mum and the rest of the family. My mum is very well cared for, offered lovely meals and snacks and seems very content in her new surroundings.

Sadly she passed away last week, but big respect to the staff

The residents are very well cared for and are treated with dignity. The staff go out of their way with the residents. I'm very happy for my partner to be a resident here.

5 star for person-centred care and tailored care plans.

During my fathers stay at Rushyfields he has always been treated with dignity. All staff have been very supportive and helpful when we have visited, going above and beyond even when under extreme pressure and very busy, nothing is ever too much trouble.

My mother-in-law has a number of medical and mental health issues. She is also prone to chest infections. The staff at Rushyfields manager her condition well, they know when to give her space and to encourage her to socialise to the best of her ability. I found that during March, she seemed to have more 'down days' than 'up days', again the staff kept a very close eye on her and did their utmost to lift her spirits.I also know that she is fond of the staff, some who have worked there since the day she moved in.

The care given to my mother in law is very good.

Dad was given the wrong medication.

Dad was initially in residential care from January 2018 until June 2018. Although we were happy with his care, he wanted to come home and live with his family. He stayed with his daughter and grandson (main carer) for four months but his mental health deteriorated and he was re-admitted in October 2018 and moved to the nursing floor in January 2019. He has now been assessed for 1:1 care. The support staff are extremely patient as he can be very demanding. The care home has been a life line for the family. We visit daily, noticing the friendly, jovial nature of staff, general atmosphere and environment. Thank you.
