I cannot speak highly enough of the North Ferriby Nursing home the staff are welcoming to every one. Their dedication to the clients is wonderful to see. Our daughter has the best care and attention as do all the residents.

My mother sadly passed away at Ferriby House Care Home, and our experience was heartbreaking. She was transferred from Hospital without a care plan in place, which immediately raised concerns. During her stay, she suffered from neglect, particularly regarding her ability to feed and drink independently,
which was completely disregarded.
Her end-of-life care was deeply distressing, resembling a discredited Care Pathway, where pain relief was inadequate, and her comfort was not prioritized.
I want to acknowledge that the staff did their best with their limited time, but simply weren't enough of them to provide the care residents deserve. The real issue lies with management and poor staffing levels.
If you're considering this home for a loved one, ask difficult questions. No family should have to experience what I did.

Reply from Lucy Holden, General Manager at North Ferriby Nursing Home

Our sympathies are with this family, and with all who lose a loved one in circumstances that they may find traumatic. However, the content of the review makes some serious allegations including neglect, not just by the home but also the medical practitioners responsible for this lady's health care. We have undertaken a review of all of the information we hold and can confirm that the personal view of the family member does not reflect what happened. That aside we have notified both the CQC and the local Adult Safeguarding team of the concerns so they can undertake an independent enquiry should they feel it is required. We are very proud of the care we provide and are surprised at the review as the family have not raised any concern with us at the time or since.

I was looking for a facility to have two weeks of post-operative care following a hip replacement. I called in and was given a comprehensive tour of the home.
The home has met my expectations and enabled me to recover from my operation.
Staff were excellent, letting me have my own space and taking
good care of me.

My Mother has been a resident for over 4 years and we've always felt that Mum received great care, however, the love and support shown to her by nursing staff since the loss of her husband and our Dad in August has been the biggest credit to North Ferriby Nursing Home.

My grandmother is well looked after in North Ferriby Nursing Home, after a turbulent time. The manager has reassured us and made our family feel so welcome, the staff at North Ferriby Nursing Home are caring, and compassionate, and will always make us feel welcomed. We are so glad we chose North Ferriby
Nursing Home, as it's not just a 'Care Home' it has such a warm welcoming feeling, my grandmother has advanced dementia and is nonverbal, the home has got to know her and she feels safe and comfortable.
If you are looking for a home that your loved one wants to be cared for in, do not hesitate to contact the manager and her team.

My relative entered the home feeling very unwell and her needs exceeded what relatives and neighbours could provide. We were greeted by very professional and caring staff who attended to my relative, settled her into a light, bright and airy room.
My relative has been assessed by visiting GP, nursing
staff within the home and a care plan produced. Staff have undertaken a thorough assessment throughout the past for weeks and they have always been available for discussion.
My relative is very well cared for, comfortable in her own room with good facilities. I have no concerns for her welfare.

I visit my aunt about once every six weeks. She is always well looked after. The room is clean and nicely furnished (the bedding and curtains are pretty). She always has plenty to drink and snacks and dinners are homecooked and look very tasty. She tells me she is very comfortable. The staff are always
very kind and helpful. As a visitor, I feel welcomed and included and can drop in anytime. It seems to be very well run. Management always says hello and is keen to help. I cannot rate 'Value for Money' as I don't deal with the money.

Dad was initially admitted to North Ferriby Nursing Home as a fall risk. We were concerned he would not settle. This however was not the case. In extreme circumstances, whilst in the home, Mum (who was in NFNH too) passed away, and dad struggled without her by his side after 62 years of marriage. Dad
had many moments of sadness and low mood. During these times. The staff were so patient with him. And very supportive to our family too offering words of wisdom. Visiting hours were great, we visited around our and Dad's needs. Whenever Dad was leaving the home he was always ready and prepared. The nurses were knowledgeable and fast to act in emergencies which happened with Mum and Dad both due to failing health. The service provided by the local GP to the home is fantastic. Dad was allowed to be as independent as he was able with his frame. Dad found the food usually good, loved the soups, and Friday Fish and Chips. A beautiful home with loads of character, it's currently undergoing room upgrades.

Cannot recommend highly enough for this home. My mother was admitted here for the last few weeks of her life and the care and respect the staff showed to her was exceptional. She was treated with dignity and her wishes for the end of her life were respected and adhered to. The information and advice
we, as a family received was outstanding. Our thanks go to each and every one there for a job well done!

My family have been very happy with the care and attention afforded to our mother over the last 5 years. They must have gone through the most difficult time possible with the COVID pandemic in recent years. The fear of the illness entering the home and the damage it would cause must have given all concerned
sleepless nights. I am happy to recommend this home, its owners and staff have provided a caring home in the last difficult years of my mother's life.

My dad spent nearly three years at North Ferriby Nursing Home and I am very happy with the quality of the facilities and the standard of care he received. It's a very homely place and the staff are very friendly and helpful and Dad seemed happy throughout his stay there.

Absolutely fantastic nursing home. The staff were exceptionally loving and kind to my mum. Every single member of staff I spoke with were so helpful and always available. Mum and I were made to feel special and we felt like it was a second home. It felt like the staff were a team, a family, and most
of them have been there 20-30 years. That says it all. Thank you!

My 80-year-old mother has been caring for my stepdad for the last 5 years until she could no longer lift and manage him in his own home and reluctantly placed him in care at Ferriby Hall. She booked in to make a visit and we rang the bell at the conservatory. The senior carer opened the door and abruptly
told us that only my mother was booked in to see my stepdad. My mum has been so worried and concerned if he had settled and the fact that her partner has been so ill, we had travelled a fair distance to see him, we were not expecting such a horrible greeting. We were not made to feel welcome at all. We were not offered a drink or given any information on how he has been. We were told so abruptly to put hand gel on and to put a face mask on. Then left to wait at the door until the senior carer went to ask if it was ok if my husband and I could also see our loved one. After gaining consent we were led to a dark room where his water and pee bottle was out of reach. Not a nice place.

Reply from Lucy Holden, General Manager at North Ferriby Nursing Home

Unfortunately, as a home, we are unable to get involved in family disputes and disagreements. It was your step-sister who greeted you at the front door. It is the home's policy and standard practice to ask all visitors to wear fresh type 2 masks, use hand sanitiser and that no more than 2 people visit in a resident's bedroom at any one time, nor do we offer refreshments at this time - all with the aim of minimising the risk of infection being passed/spread to our residents or staff.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.700)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.700) out of 10 for North Ferriby Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.700 for North Ferriby Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (164 Excellents x 5) + (24 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) + (6 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 200 Ratings = 4.7

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for North Ferriby Nursing Home is based on 16 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 38 registered maximum number of service users is 7.6, which has been reached with 16 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
