Quite simply I can not express enough how grateful the family is for the exemplary level of care, compassion and love shown to my Mum in care at Amphion View for a year up to her sad passing. All the staff were outstanding in handling every challenging situation including the painful, tormenting end-of-life
procedure, with dignity and compassion. Can not recommend Amphion View highly enough. I am not one for leaving reviews but wanted to on this occasion as I fully understand how difficult it is to find the right home, we were unable due to covid restraints to visit homes but I'm so relieved she was placed here. Thank you sincerely.

Reply from Nigel Best, General Manager at Amphion View

Whenever we receive a review we are grateful. Grateful that someone is willing to spend the time to give us some feedback often at such a difficult time. Sometimes that feedback is to help us improve, which is always good. And sometimes it is a review that, when we are sad or feeling worn out or tired or down, gives us such an emotional boost that we feel able to cope, to care, and to carry on because what we do is so very real and meaningful to the people, like you, your family and your Mum, that really matter. So thank you for this review, your family's kindness, and the chance to care for your Mum. We are truly humbled and extremely grateful.

Mum was cared for extremely well during her whole stay of 1 year, and exceptionally well through her sad death. The staff should be applauded for their sincere endeavours on a daily basis, especially faced with the constraints and worries of covid. We feel lucky that Mum was in a place of love, kindness,
respect, and devotion. It's very upsetting accepting your loved one's decline. It's eased enormously when you see true care.

Thank you so much for your very kind words. At a time when you are feeling such emotions, we are incredibly grateful that you took the time to write this review. Whenever things are tough, it is amazing how actions and words can help. We are so pleased that ours helped you and your Mum just as surely as yours here, in this review, have helped us. Thank you.

Too hot. Seem to be caring carers. Mum always looks well dressed and cared for but often says bored.

My mum has recently been transferred here from another nursing home in Doncaster. What can I say? She is a totally different person! She is like the woman she used to be. From what we have seen she is well cared for by lovely staff who go above and beyond for those in their care. The home has a lovely
'warm' feel to it and I can see my mum is much happier and content. I would highly recommend Amphion View to those wanting excellent care for their loved ones.

All the staff seem really caring people. My brother is always clean and smartly dressed and seems really happy. He enjoys his food very much and eats everything he is given. The house is always lovely and warm and welcoming. The staff always say hello when I go and seem really kind and caring to the
residents.

My mother-in-law was in the home from December 2014 until her death in January 2020. In all of that time she was treated as a member of the family and we were safe in the knowledge that she was in the best place relating to her illness and impairment. All the team were excellent, very approachable and
the management were exceptional and our friends. Excellent!

The care my husband has received has been first class. The managers and care staff at Amphion View are dedicated, kind and compassionate team.
Standards are very high and nothing is too much trouble.
As a family, we are forever grateful to them for all the care and kindness they have shown my husband
over the last 2 years.

The quality of care at Amphion has been excellent. Standards are very high and nothing is too much trouble for the staff.
My father was treated like a family member, as their compassion and kindness were always at the forefront of their care.
The management and staff are extremely dedicated and
committed to providing the best care possible.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this care home, as I am forever grateful to them.

The staff are fantastic at this home. Nothing is too much trouble. All staff very friendly, helpful and professional.
My father was in the home for 6 months prior to his death. The care, compassion and overall everything was fabulous. The atmosphere is one of warmth and family.
After my father's passing,
my aunt moved into Amphion View and again the care and compassion shown was outstanding. She recently passed too. I have a lot of respect for everyone at Amphion View.

All staff at the care home were very caring towards mum during her lengthy stay, they interacted really well with her, and formed a nice supportive relationship with mum. Whenever I visited, the staff were always extremely helpful, and regardless of the demanding role they have, there was always room
for an approachable smile. During the last few days before mum passed away, the staff and management were little short of fantastic, very professional and caring. Nothing was too much trouble, they really did make things a little easier for the family at a difficult time.

My auntie was a resident in this care home for just over a year.
We were able to take a few furniture items and pictures to hang on the walls which really helped her settle in.
The staff and management were very good, nothing was too much trouble.
The communication from the staff with any information
that we needed to know was excellent. This gave us a lot of confidence in the care home.
Being able to visit at any time was a big help.
Thank you to all the staff of Amphion View Care Home for caring for our auntie.

Amphion View provided excellent care for my uncle over 18 months.
The care and attention to detail were outstanding, showing respect throughout.
The comforting touches, respect and dignity and caring words and thought shown throughout this time there were second to none.
My uncle was placed on end
of care and passed away in the home.
The communication with me was excellent and he was in great hands at this very difficult time.
Thank you.

My wife has been a resident in Amphion View for about 3 and a half years now and I've seen the different levels of support she has received as her condition has deteriorated. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff and I can't thank them enough for the care they give to my wife. I visit most days
and am always made to feel welcome which is a great comfort.

My mother was at this care home for approx 21/2 years. She received first class care even though she was a difficult resident and could sometimes be aggressive and stubborn. I have always witnessed the staff deal with residents in a dignified and respectful manner providing 1st class care for my mother
right to the end.
