Mum has just moved into the home and we couldn't of hoped for a warmer welcome from the whole team. The staff we've met so far are so helpful, attentive and caring. I'm sure mum will settle and be well looked after.

The staff are lovely, very caring and helpful, in fact I can no speak highly enough of them. The food is very good, very good quality. My only criticism would be the cleanliness of the home.

All in all very happy with things

Mum seems happy in her home. The staff are very kind and she responds to them well. She can be difficult at times, but they leave the room and returns later, and she normally agrees to her personal care taking place. She is safe in the home, and procedures in place to stop falls. Home keeps me well
informed and always encourages visits. Office staff also very helpful and always happy to answer questions regarding her fees etc. When I have had an issue last year, it was dealt with straight away, and all has been good since then.

Very happy with the care in the home. The staff are fantastic and professional. Always putting the residence needs first. The management are great. We always are told of any issues with our Sister. The activities provided are great. Can not fault the home or care in anyway.

Mum has been in the dementia unit for a few weeks now and the whole process has been straightforward with good support along the way from all staff that we have encountered. What was a difficult and emotional time for us was made easier as a result of the support provided by the staff team. Nothing
has been too much trouble, we have been actively encouraged to get in touch with any questions or concerns. Mum has settled in remarkably well in a short space of time, a huge relief for all the family. We know that she is safe there, has company and is eating well. To date, there is nothing negative to say, we have been impressed on the support provided, communications and ease of settling Mum in.

My wife was admitted to the care centre suffering from dementia. She was not the easiest of patients, as she exhibited aggresive behaviour. But the staff treated her with kindness, patience and respect and managed her behaviour in a quiet and efficient way. I have nothing but praise for the care she
received during her stay at Ashdowne and am grateful to the carers for their conduct.

My aunt moved into Ashdowne Care Centre in August 2024, I found the home to be very welcoming & the staff were extremely kind towards my aunt & myself. Nothing was too much trouble to do for her. Aunt was very difficult to be dealt with, but carers were super with her.

Although my mother in law only had a short time at Ashdowne, the care she recieved was second to none. Nothing was too much trouble and the staff went above and beyond for our family in her final few days. The staff were always willing to help and looked after us too. We will never be able to thank
them enough for what they did for her and our family.

I felt compelled to write this review for the exceptional care provided to my mother during her stay at Pinnex House/Ashdown Nursing Home.
The high level of professionalism and dedication I witnessed from every member of staff. From the nurses and care assistants to the kitchen staff and
housekeeping, everyone demonstrated a genuine care and respect for the residents, while maintaining a friendly and supportive atmosphere.
This compassionate approach was evident not only in the excellent care provided to my mother but also in the way staff interacted with other residents and their families. The respect and dignity afforded to all was truly commendable. I believe this positive and supportive environment significantly contributed to my mother's well-being during her stay.
Thank you again for the outstanding care provided to my mother and all the residents of Pinnex Moor House Nursing Home.

My mother underwent an operation and following a month-long stay in hospital needed further rehabilitation care before eventually returning home. She and my father have been married for 75 years and she found it extremely difficult to be parted. The staff were very welcoming to my father who spent
hours with her every day. From the moment we were offered a place at Ashdowne Care Centre we were reassured. The manageress came into the hospital to meet with the family and discuss the care needed and to chat with Mum to make sure this would be a good fit. My sister and I then met with the nursing manager. Her comment of "this is the home of the residents and I feel it a privilege to work here " really summed up the whole philosophy of the home. Each and every member of staff we encountered from there on has been, kind, caring, efficient and above all "smiley". Mum has been in for 5 weeks and is well enough to now return home. A heartfelt thank you to all!

We arrived at Ashdowne Care Centre understanding we had a short time left with Dad. It has been about just looking after Dad and caring for his needs ie his catheter and swabs for his mouth as he's not been able to drink or eat. The staff are amazing, they come every hour to tend to Dad. He is made
as comfortable as possible, the level of care is exceptional actually not only for him but for my mum, they have truly been the very best they could be for them both. I'm so grateful. They turn Dad every hour and they have had a lovely clean room with every facility necessary. I would not hesitate to have Mum here or recommend to others. We as a family are so very grateful to everyone, the staff are amazing.

The care Dad received in his final days was exceptional. A sad emotional experience was eased with such a wonderful high standard of care and kindness as well as empathy for the family. On behalf of our family a big thank you to Ashdowne Care Centre.

The care staff at Ashdowne treated my husband with dignity and compassion. They always kept me informed of any changes in his condition and supported me through a very difficult time. Because of his dementia, he wasn't always the easiest resident to cope with but they made a great effort to meet his
needs. Thank you.

The home is good. The nursing staff was excellent and care was always very good. There were activities and events throughout her stay. The room was perfectly adequate for my mother with advanced Alzheimer's but it could do with redecorating and some more thought on furniture. Mum actually improved
slightly over the period of 2 years before her illness finally got her. Recommended. Admin was efficient and staff lovely.
