I have been a resident here for more than 2 years now and I can say this home has came a long way. The food has elevated and the staff are very welcoming to make you feel like your at home. And the entertainment staff will always try get you involved in something to keep you occupied

My sister has been at five rivers since March 2025. She was really poorly on admission, so poorly, that she was officially diagnosed end of life by the hospital. However, with care and patience from the staff at five rivers, she's back to her old self, with no signs of dying before she's 150. My
sister has learning disabilities and mobile difficulties, and can be demanding. The staff are very accommodating, and my sister has settled in perfectly. She phones me regularly, and doesn't complain about anything. She seems very happy. They also take her out for school visits, she's been on a narrow boat trip, and they have cinema afternoons etc

My father spent 2+ years at Five Rivers, where I can say they went above and beyond and were like an extended family.
Whenever I visited they were so friendly and accommodating, and can safely say they treated my Dad really well.
The facilities were welcoming and clean, with a bright feel. The
room was of a decent size but the biggest thing was the human touch. They went above and beyond in accommodating my dads emotional needs where he was able to maintain time with his favourite companion, his dog.
I will forever be grateful for the support they gave in my Dad's time.

Mum was a resident in Five Rivers for 16 months where she was very happy and well cared for.
She became more acutely unwell at the end of June, was admitted to hospital and ultimately, put on end of life care. Mum was given the opportunity to be admitted to the local hospice, but preferred to go
back to the care home knowing she would be loved and supported, with her own things around her.
We were lucky that we got another 3, mostly good, months with mum before she passed away and during that time we were very well supported, as was mum. Staff continued to treat her with love, care and respect and extended that to us.
We visited daily but were still contacted immediately mum's condition changed so we were able to be with her at the end. Again the kindness, emotional support and love shown to mum and the family was more than we could have imagined.
We feel very privileged that mum went to Five Rivers and ended her days there when we could no longer support her growing needs at home.

I would like to say that my father in his last week was given care or kindness and support.
The care and support extended to us as a family for which we are very grateful for.
Thank you for your service.

I am pleased that my dad was at Five Rivers Living. From the first contact the staff were super. Its a nice environment, clean and tidy. Care of my dad was very good.

My brother with dementia went into Five Rivers Living after being asked to leave his previous care home due to his behaviour, even though it was a highly rated dementia care home. After a few hiccups my brother settled in well, his behaviour became much better, and his general health improved, but
most importantly, he was very happy there. This care home has a real family feel about it, the staff are brilliant and well led by management that are "hands on" and know the residents personally. I can't thank everyone enough for the memorable times I spent with my brother, and how happy he was.

Where do I even begin my nana became a resident at 5 rivers due to declining health dementia and skin cancer she was beyond challenging and I'm in no doubt that the care she was given was above and beyond the staff and management treated her with love and care and respect even though she was so
nasty and even violent at times they treated my grandad like family when he would visit and always looked after him when he was there I honestly do not think I could have chosen a better care home it's light and airy and modern always clean and food always looked good my nana sadly passed away due to her skin cancer and till the very end we would not have wanted anyone else to care for her every single member of staff I met along this journey I cannot thank them enough and will be forever greatful to them all

When my wife had to go into care, I had my doubts. But a year on, all my fears have gone thanks to all the love and care she is receiving, she is happy and contented. Everything about the home makes for a pleasant stay. I would recommend this home to anyone.

Everyone is so friendly whenever I visit. My aunt is spoken to by everyone so pleasantly, even the manager goes above and beyond to say hello when you pass her office.

My husband has been here for a week and I am very happy with the care and everything here.

A huge change for Mum, and all the team at Five Rivers could not be kinder and warmer in looking after her. A massive thank you to everyone, from the cleaners to the laundry, the cooks and all the super carers.

My husbands cousin has been treated with dignity and respect by the care staff who really do care about the residents. They are always up to date on what is happening.
09 April 2025
Very happy with the care home. My uncle has very complex needs that take up a lot of time and understanding. The management keeps us updated and is open and honest with the needs required. They are supportive and try to implement different things to support his needs. They keep him safe at all
times. The carers are kind and caring, and they are always interactive with the residents.

Very happy with the care and support being given by the carers and the management at the care home. My uncle is a tricky resident who causes the home issues, however, they are dealing with him very well.

From my person experience I find this place clean, safe and reasonably equipped. The staff have always been welcoming polite and professional. Overall this is the best place that my father has stayed.

I have been very happy with the care my mother has been receiving. The building and rooms are always clean and the food looks very nice. Any problems or needs I have needed the staff have always been there to help.
24 March 2025
Since new management/owners took over the place has vastly improved. Any queries are taken seriously and we don't feel "fobbed off" with answers.Very nice people and crew. Thank you.
