Overall Experience

My mother came to stay at the Lyndale in December 2017. After a stay in Southport Hospital she was left incapacitated. All the staff at the Lyndale made my mum feel very welcome and nothing was too much trouble. Although myself and my family never ever thought that our Mum would end her days in

a Nursing Home (as she had worked as a Nurse for many years in various homes in Southport during her working life), we as a family will always be grateful to all the staff who loved her and took care of her until she passed away in July.

My aunt has been a resident here since August 2017 and gets on well with staff. I have found staff to be very friendly and obliging they are attentive to all my aunt's needs and pleasant to deal with.
My aunt is bed-bound and not able to join in many of the activities offered. There is a daily newsletter

which she enjoys me reading it to her. My aunt is very comfortable here and I have observed a happy atmosphere in the home.

Overall Experience

My mother only moved into Lyndale a month ago but I have been very impressed by the high standard of care, sensitivity and friendliness of the staff!
The home is clean, pleasant and welcoming. My mother's room is lovely. The only possible concern is the lack of a lift to the top floor.
I feel very

reassured that my mother is in a safe and caring place at the closing stages of her life.

Overall Experience

I have been at the Lyndale Nursing Home receiving respite care for 6 weeks after a spell of 4 weeks in Southport Hospital due to a fall in my home where I knocked myself out. I have received excellent care and kindness at the Lyndale. All the staff are so kind, caring and the food is wonderful, like

5-star Hotel standard. I am so much better since I have been here. I could hardly walk with Zimmer frame when I first came but now I can walk steadily when using a Zimmer frame. I am sad to say goodbye to all these lovely people and I will always appreciate the love and care I have received from everyone here.

Overall Experience

My mum has been in Lyndale Nursing Home for two years after having a big stroke.
Lyndale is in a nice area close to a lovely park and not far from the beach.
She has a nice en-suite room which overlooks the lovely garden which is user-friendly.
The staff are all very helpful and have helped her regain

most movement. She is given appropriate mashed food as she has choking problems. We are always made welcome when we visit.

Overall Experience

My mother was a resident at Lyndale from February 2016 until April 2017 when she died. The care she received from all of the staff was second to none. My family were included in all decisions concerning Mum and the staff telephoned us immediately if there were any concerns. We felt we shared our mother's

last fourteen months of care and nothing was too much trouble for any of the staff. In mum's last few weeks, which were very difficult, Mum was able, through amazing nursing, to pass with dignity and our family had the most amazing support ever. Thank you.

Lyndale Nursing Home is an incredibly warm and welcoming place. They are a small team of wonderfully dedicated and caring staff and my father-in-law has been treated impeccably since he has been residing here.
He has been cared for with dignity and his wife is welcomed by the staff as she visits every

day. Our family is confident that he is as safe as he can be there and I would not hesitate to recommend.

Overall Experience

My mum resided at Lyndale Nursing Home for the last 3 weeks of her life. During this time, she was treated in a caring and dignified way. I could not have placed mum in a more suitable home for her final weeks. They had the experience to cater for all mum's needs and I was reassured that mum was in

safe hands at the times when I was not there. The staff and management showed respect and understanding to us as a family at a very difficult time.

My mother has been resident at Lyndale Nursing Home for nearly a year. Her care has been excellent at all times and nothing is too much trouble. They organised a 100th birthday party for her and all her relatives which was excellent and my mother really appreciated the time they spent in preparing the

food and supplying her with a lovely cake. The management, matron and staff all take care of mum to the highest standard.

Overall Experience

My mother has resided at Lyndale for 17 years and I have found her care provision to be of a very high standard.
Staff are friendly, courteous and helpful.
The care staff provide a good service for my mother, despite her disagreeable temperament at times. Lyndale has a warm and inviting atmosphere

with no evidence of "off-putting" aromas at any time when I have visited. I am very happy with her placement and the care and attention provided. My only criticism is clothing sometimes goes astray.

Overall Experience

My father was admitted from the hospital in October 2015. He was very ill and possibly about to 'pass on'. The caring, excellent nursing care that he received brought him back to us and he is now back to strength, cheerful and participating in the many activities that the Lyndale Nursing Home provides.

He enjoys the carefully prepared, varied diet and is now eating with enthusiasm which was not the care in 2015. All the staff and the owner know every resident and my father is treated as an individual who is well-respected. On Remembrance Day, which he at 91 watched with sorrow, a member of staff sat with him for the two-minute silence. They knew what he felt and cared. I have no hesitation in recommending the Lyndale Nursing Home. All of our family’s life has been enhanced because of their care.

My father has been a resident at Lyndale for over a year now. I have found the staff to be excellent. They are caring, friendly and contribute a great deal to my father's overall comfort and well-being. The rooms are nice and I always find dad to be clean and content when I visit. Dad suffers from occasional

seizures I have found the nursing staff to be excellent.
He is well cared for. We are always well informed by the very competent and pragmatic staff. I would have no hesitation in recommended the Lyndale to anyone considering nursing care for a loved one.

My mother (88-years-old) entered Lyndale Nursing Home on the 1st November 2016. She was in a poor state and confused after leaving hospital. It is now January 2017 and there is a big improvement in my mother's health and wellbeing. I put this down to the care and attention of the staff at Lyndale Nursing

Home. Any problems or concerns are dealt with very promptly. The place is very clean and tidy. The food they prepare for my mother is fantastic. I would not hesitate in recommending Lyndale Nursing Home to anyone looking for care for a loved one.

My husband went into the Lyndale Nursing Home for 2 weeks respite care, we were welcomed in the car park by the matron and staff and wev both completely spoilt over the next two weeks. The kindness and care that my husband received was exemplary. The cleanliness and upkeep of the room, home and grounds

were exceptional.
All my husband's needs were met wth dignity and respect and I was able to have my lunch and tea with him and the food was excellent. They made us feel welcome, safe, respected, supported and happy. No problems in highly recommending Lyndale.

My mum has been in the nursing home for 3 months following her stroke. It is situated in a nice location a short distance from the park. She has a pleasant room overlooking the garden and is quite comfortable. The staff are very caring and helpful. They will answer any queries we may have. My mum is

always clean and dressed nicely and encouraged to sit in her chair. They have helped her to try to walk with a zimmer frame. The meals are always appetising.

My 95 year old mum has only been a resident at The Lyndale for 2 months, but she is settled in extremely well and is very happy. The care and support given to her by all the staff has been excellent. She is treated with dignity at all times and everyone is friendly and helpful. The residence has a very

homely feel and her room is very comfortable, clean and bright. All her needs are being met including the food which is of an excellent standard and tailored to her specific requirements.
