My mother has been cared for in the home for the last nine months. Her care has been excellent. The staff are all professional and kind and she was very happy there. The manager was able to keep the home Covid free until the very infectious variant arrived and then prompt action brought it rapidly under
control.

Our dad is very well cared for, all the staff treat him with respect and compassion. He is very happy which has given us comfort during these difficult times. A member of staff is always available to answer any queries. Very much a home from home with good staff consistency.

My mother has received ongoing, excellent care from everyone - management, all carers including the chef, exercise leaders and hairdresser. They all treat the residents with respect, empathy and truly care about every individual. During Covid for the last two years, their protocols have really paid
off, preventing residents, as far as possible, from contracting the virus. It has been hard for families - unable to enter the home to hug or kiss loved ones but the home has tried to mitigate the situation by providing an intercom system either side of glass and latterly a summer house. I can't praise them all enough!

You have done very well to keep Covid effects down to a minimum. You must be congratulated on this achievement. Well done (one case that we know of). Mum seems very happy there and likes her room. Food was better before - that's her only improvement comment. So overall, very happy, thank you!

Mum and Dad moved into a double room together 6 months ago - Dad with very limited mobility and Mum with dementia. The staff are kind, caring, knowledgeable and highly competent. The home is clean and inviting and always smells fresh. Mum and Dad love the company, the food and knowing they are safe.
They are always clean and tidy and well looked after. The family love the "can-do" attitude from the manager through all types of staff. I hope they have a room for me when I need such care!

When visiting I have found the staff very friendly and helpful. The home is always clean, and warm and I have on occasions had meals with my wife and have no complaints about the quality and variety of the food. Due to the ongoing Covid pandemic, I have not been in my wife's room.

My mum is happy at North Ferriby Nursing home, she has lived there for 3 years in April
she is well looked after and cared for, and respected by the staff. The food is excellent too. Her clothes are always clean. During non-Covid times, they would normally have people coming in to stimulate the residents.


The

children of the local nursery used to come in to see the residents which they loved. Hopefully, these times will come back eventually. We are very thankful for the care the staff give my mum, and all the help they have given over this time. They are approachable, should you wish to discuss anything.

Every element of this place is lovely and puts our mind at ease, aside from being a grand building and well catered for, the staff make this place a home from home. There wasn’t one member of staff who wasn’t kind, caring and considerate. They made the whole process easy and I am so grateful to them
for all that they did and all the small little details they added to make my mum's life happier and easier.

I highly recommend North Ferriby Nursing Home - my mum has been staying there for the past 8 weeks for respite care and has made a fantastic recovery: starting to walk again and to communicate again. It is a significant change in a relatively short time.
This change is completely down to the caring
and attentive team at North Ferriby, the high standard of care, good food and pleasant surroundings of the home. It has also been achieved against the difficult backdrop of all the covid restrictions.
Also appreciated was the flexibility and organisation of the manager and the team in arranging the care at short notice, at the busy Christmas period.

My dad has been in the care home since March 2020. We have been extremely happy with the home and especially with the care he is receiving. All the staff are very friendly and he speaks highly of them all and they have helped him settle in.
His daily food menu sounds amazing, since he has been there
he has gained weight and looks so much better.
I know it's not an ideal situation because of Covid but the home following the government guidelines are trying their best for us to have visits.
I would highly recommend this home.

During the COVID crisis we have been disappointed against other leading care homes in the local area and the outdoor visits they are all positively providing. Despite residents being locked down for 5 months and counting, Autumn and flu season fast upon us, no 'outdoor terrace or garden' access for
visits have been made available since the government's restrictions were altered in July, despite having both a terrace and large gardens on site. Only face to face visit is via a relative sitting in the entrance porchway whilst the resident sits on the other side of the conservatory glass and speaks over a precarious intercom system. This visit is not private and is seen and overheard by other staff and residents.
Despite listing on this site that there are 'gardens for residents' in their facilities, we have since been informed that the gardens are 'owned by the owners' and that any residents and relatives cannot access them, despite all health benefits and spiritual well being. Be warned!

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

As a home that cares passionately about the health and well-being of our residents and is COVID free, we are sorry that you are not satisfied with the visiting arrangement we have in place - however, we are following the advice from the East Riding of Yorkshire Council and I quote: "It is always difficult when the wishes and views of an individual are at odds with what is required by the law, the regulator and the local commissioners, as is the case here. Visiting in any care home remains challenging but I can confidently say that the measures in place to protect residents in this home, and ensure family contact is maintained as effectively as we can, are completely supported by the Local Authority."

The home offers excellent care and importantly mum is very happy there, loves the staff and is pleased to be there knowing she is being well cared for.
During COVID their infection control and protection of patients has been exemplary and visits have been well managed within guidelines to keep everyone
safe.

It has been very challenging during COVID lockdown. The staff have been very helpful giving my dad any packages we have left at the door or pushing through the window so we can wave and talk to him when appropriate. Dad has Parkinson's so isn't always lucid or helpful to the very patient and helpful
staff looking after him.

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.
