Overall Experience

When my mother went to Ferndale Court Care Home she was made to feel welcome she was soon relaxed, even now she seems quite happy. She has a good rapport with the care staff, which makes it easier for her family when we visit.

Overall Experience

First class experience of the staff who had taken care of my Dads stay in Ferndale. They all went above and beyond of what was expected from them, staying behind to care for my Dad after their shift had ended. Words are not enough to express my gratitude. A pleasure to have met each and everyone. Thank

you all.

Overall Experience

Ferndale Court and all the staff meet all the needs of my husbands to an excellent degree including those times when my husband can be quite difficult to cope with. I am so grateful for this as I would not be able to cope at home on my own.

Overall Experience

My husband has been in Ferndale Court now for over 2 months and he has had very good care and is treated with dignity. The staff in my husbands unit are very kind and nothing is too much trouble for them. They make sure that they include my husband in all the activities and always talk to him.

Review from Peter W (Son of Resident) published on 5 December 2016

Overall Experience

Dad was taken into Ferndale in March at the age of 82, he was mainly bedbound, he was Diabetic and had other illnesses. Because of the Nurses care and attention within a few months of constant care and monitoring, Dads fluctuating blood sugar readings and other infections were brought under control,

and Dads general wellbeing improved.
Our whole Ferndale experience is one which we can look back on and truthfully say, that everything to make Dad comfortable was done. The staff and Nurses did everything for him. He was always clean and in clean clothes and bedding.
The food at Ferndale is really good, having tried it myself. Our family are really grateful to ALL the staff at Ferndale, always friendly and helpful. At our request, Dad passed away at Ferndale, very peacefully, and with dignity. At the end, the Nurses and staff were so considerate, we stayed with Dad as long as we wanted.
In my experience, I have no hesitation recommending Ferndale for your loved ones.

Review from Sheila B (Cousin of Resident) published on 16 September 2016

Overall Experience

On visiting my cousin at Ferndale Court Care Home in Widnes I was very pleased with the attention the staff gave to the residents. They were all treated with the respect we all deserve. As a visitor, I was impressed with the home itself. It was clean and tidy and there was a very happy feeling about

the place. I have been a caregiver myself so I am aware of the needs of the elderly and my honest opinion is that at Ferndale Court Care Home all these needs are met. The staff are happy and friendly and I feel my cousin is safe in their hands, whoever came up with the idea of a letterbox on all doors was brilliant. My cousin seemed more settled seeing her room as her house, not her bedroom and I think that made it easier for her.

Overall Experience

My friend has been in Ferndale Court for more than three years. We have always been very impressed by the care she received. The office staff, cleaners, laundry, caretaker, activities Director and nursing staff have always gone the extra mile in being friendly, helpful and very thoughtful in the way

they have treated my friend. Today as we were leaving St Helen's hospital. The consultant and nurses commented to me and my friend what a good care home she had come from. They were very impressed by her cleanliness, not only physically but her clothes also. I would recommend Ferndale Court to everyone. It really does feel like home.

My mum has recently been admitted to Bluebell Unit. The staff are very kind, patient and informative. My mum can be a bit of a handful. I don't know how they do it.

My two cousins visited today (not seen mum since first came here). They were amazed how much mum has improved, how happy and bright she was. They said it was the nicest nursing home they have been in. I told them we are very happy with mums care here and it is a blessing to all the family to see mum

so happy.

I visited today Ferndale Court and the staff were very polite and friendly. As I am quite frail myself the staff assisted me and gave me a cup of tea, took the time to make me feel welcome.
