The home gave mum excellent care, particularly nursing care. Mum took part in many of the organised activities which greatly enhanced her quality of life in her last months.

Overall Experience

Thank you to all the staff for creating a warm and motivating environment for my mother who initially, as an independent woman, was reluctant to make the transition to a residential home. With their help and sensitive care, they not only made her transition welcoming and less stressful but also initiated

a new positive chapter in her life.

Reply from Christine Stevens, Associate Director of Communication and Development at Riversway Nursing Home

Overall Experience

After a long illness, my dad spent his final days at Riversway. A nursing home was never what he wanted and as a family, we were also worried.
All our fears were soon resolved by the wonderful manager and staff who took so much time to settle my dad in but also talk to the family.
My dad was made

to feel welcome and there is a real homely atmosphere.
Every area was always clean and the food varied and appetising.
Thank you for all you did, we will never forget you.

Overall Experience

Mum was only at Riversway Nursing Home for 12 months but the care and attention she received was excellent. All the staff were dedicated and professional, nothing was too much trouble for anyone from the management down and I cannot recommend this care home highly enough.

Overall Experience

I was pleased with the care my mother received during her time at Riversway Nursing Home. The staff are always helpful and polite. They treated the residents with kindness and consideration. I like the way the residents were allowed to move around freely and safely. There is a wide range of activities

to suit the varying needs and abilities of the residents. I felt I could come away after visiting knowing that my mother would be well looked after.

Overall Experience

Mum was with you for just over a year and unfortunately, her condition deteriorated quite rapidly. The care and attention Mum received during this difficult time was excellent. The care staff were always cheerful and friendly to those needing care and their visitors, and they were willing to chat or

answer any questions. The general ambience of the home made a very difficult time more bearable.

My mum was at the home for just over a year and very well looked after. All the staff are loving and very friendly and helpful. The home has a lovely feel to it and visitors are made to feel very welcome. There are lots of activities going on in the home and visits outside.
Thank you all very much

Overall Experience

Unfortunately, the day arrived when the family had to make a decision to find a nursing home for our 91-year-old mother. I visited several homes in our area and was impressed by each one. However, on entering Riversway it took my breath away. Together with the location and excellent greeting from the

staff. I decided with the family to place our mother at this care home and although early stages, I cannot find the words to praise this establishment highly enough.
Thank you and long may you continue to carry out the care you obviously enjoy offering.

Overall Experience

My mother had a fall New Year's Eve and the doctor and social worker wouldn't help. She couldn't stand or walk. The home manager came out on New Year's Day, assessed and took her to Riversway Nursing Home, which was a huge relief because at home it was impossible to look after her. The staff have been

friendly, conscientious and professional. They liaised with the emergency doctor as Mum's GP was too far for them to visit. She's now moved to a care home closer to the GP and her home, just for logistics and ease of visitors. Huge thanks to Riversway Nursing Home and all staff; you saved us in our hour of need.

Overall Experience

The home was needed for end of life care. The staff were pleasant, helpful. Manageress was extremely caring and considerate, can't praise enough. Wonderful surroundings and rooms excellent. Even though it was end of life care our family member was treated with dignity and given care and compassion.

Always attended with much care. Staff took care of visiting family as well as the resident.

Overall Experience

Riversway Care Home is very well run. The staff are highly skilled, caring, empathic and committed to the highest of levels of care. There is a very positive team culture and an emphasis on maintaining residents quality of life through activities or through simple one to one personal relations. My mother

was very happy there, saying "They can't do enough for you".

Overall Experience

My father was made very welcome by all the staff although he was only there for six weeks before he died and was treated with dignity in his final weeks. All the staff were very helpful and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble. A very clean and professionally run home. I would recommend this home

to anyone in my fathers position as they could not do enough to help.
