We needed to find care for my mother who was terminally ill. We managed to get her into North Ferriby nursing home which was close to her home. The whole process was very professionally handled by the general manager and within four days of initial contact, we moved Mum in. The care given was exceptional
- all the staff are very friendly and efficient. Although Mum was only there two weeks until she passed away, she could not have had better care. I have not rated the activities as Mum was bed-bound so didn't take part in the activities.

I cannot praise this nursing home highly enough. Unfortunately, my mum was only here for end of life care, which was sadly only 5 days. The care and attention which was given to her by all members of staff was exemplary. The minute she was transferred here from hospital to the day she sadly died, the
care afforded to her was totally first class.
Her room was warm and welcoming. The staff were totally attentive, not just to her, but to all our family on our time spent with her. The staff could not do enough for us. Even providing us with meals and a never-ending supply of hot drinks.
If I could just say an extra special thank you to the manager and staff, we will be forever grateful.

In early 2010 my friend entered North Ferriby Nursing Home for respite care. She had cellulitis, had suffered a blood clot to the brain and a broken pelvis and had been discovered to have a gluten intolerance. The life changing events, and the realisation that she would be unable to return to her home
to live, made my friend very depressed and unsettled and her behaviour was very challenging for a considerable time. This required significant aftercare nursing which the nurses and staff at N.F.N.H. carried out with great care and professionalism.

Over 8+ years I have grown to know the management and many of the staff very well. I have found them to be very friendly, helpful, kind, caring, respectful and consider them well able to meet my friend's comprehensive nursing and care needs. (She is now bedridden.)


I am privy to my friend's care plan and it has given me complete peace of mind to know that in N.F.N.H. my friend is safe and her future care is assured.

My 86 year old father became a resident at North Ferriby Nursing Home for respite and convalescence after a spell in hospital that saw his weight plummet, his mobility compromised and his overall health poor. Dad has advanced Parkinsons and his care can be a challenge as can his behaviour at times.
The care dad received here was fantastic, the staff are the most caring I have come across and the nursing staff exemplary. Dad stayed here for 9 weeks and left to go home (with care) walking, nourished and happy. The family wanted dad to stay as he made friends, enjoyed activities and was very well cared for. But being proud and still craving independence he wanted to go home. We wouldn’t hesitate to for dad to go back to North Ferriby Nursing should he need to.

My father asked me to find him a nursing home that he could visit for daycare. He enjoyed spending the day there so much that he then asked to stay for respite care and as his health deteriorated North Ferriby Nursing home became his home during the short time he was there. There are various activities
throughout the week, dominoes, quizzes, flower arranging, chair movement to music. and also a music afternoon on occasion.
The rooms vary in size and are comfortable and clean, some extremely spacious along with ensuite. He enjoyed sitting in the conservatory and also spending time outside in the pretty courtyard. The staff were brilliant and made him feel at home chatting and laughing with him. Nothing was too much trouble for them, they were all happy to help him when he asked. When he arrived at Ferriby Nursing Home his medication was in a bit of a mix-up. This was sorted out immediately, thank you so much.
He was treated with dignity care and respect by everyone. Thank you.

Mum has been there for nearly 4 years and really loves it. She is extremely happy with the care she receives from the excellent staff. There is a warm and friendly environment in which she feels very safe and well provided for. The meals are of an excellent standard and mum has a room overlooking gardens
so she can watch the wildlife.
My sister and I are extremely happy knowing that mum is in there as although she is a residential client there are nurses on site 24hrs/day so when something has happened then there has been a very quick response.

My father stayed at the nursing home for 5 weeks to convalesce and to give us a rest. He, and we, found the experience very positive. He particularly commented on the very good food (and he is a coeliac) and the warm, friendly and good-humoured staff.


A member of staff set up a wi-fi connection for

him, which made a huge difference, as he uses his laptop a lot.


The only way in which the experience could have been better would have been if a staff member could have taken him out walking, which was crucial for his rehabilitation. Family members had to ensure that they were available to do that.


Overall - a warm, friendly family atmosphere in a lovely building

After four months in different hospitals, my husband was discharged to the nursing home. He arrived there on a stretcher in a frail state.


After six weeks there he came home walking, cheerful and robust. He received excellent care and help in the home to enable him to achieve these results.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

My father moved into this nursing home in early July. He was both frail and suffering from certain long term health problems that we felt were not being met fully at his earlier residential home. Our decision proved to be the right one.


Since his arrival there he was treated with compassion, dignity

and professionalism by all of the staff. His first week or so seemed to show a considerable improvement in his general state of well being. He seemed to have regained his mojo, so to speak. Alas, the return of a urinary infection seems to have taken its toll and he finally got his wish to meet up once more with my mother, his wife of 73 years. I do believe his final days were made that much more bearable by the very kind attention he received by all of the staff who were so kind and understanding. It was as though he felt comfortable with his surroundings and could finally let go. I will for ever be grateful to the manager and all her staff for all that they did for my Dad. Thank you.

My husband has stayed here for respite during the past two years. The management team and all staff are accessible and friendly and are extremely willing to provide our needs. All the staff show a loving concern for all the residents, treating them with respect, patience and a sense of humour.


Family

and friends are made to feel welcome and are invited to have refreshments.


The informal comfortable seating in the spacious conservatory encourages residents to socialise.


A varied programme of activities helps to stimulate mind and body.

I regularly visit this home twice a week to see my Mother who is in the second stage Alzheimer's disease, recently becoming incontinent and struggling sometimes to recognise and find the correct vocabulary to use. Mum is usually very clean and tidy and quite happy. I am a pharmacist and have looked
after and visited many residential and nursing homes over 36 years. I find the staff (and they're plentiful) always very busy calm and understanding.
If on pre-odd occasion they haven't had the chance to clean them up they always apologise and say they'll do it very soon without any prompting.

My mother has been a resident since February of 2017. She had a stroke in December. The leadership team and staff at the home have been very caring and attentive. It is a very friendly home with the right service attitude. My mother enjoys the activities and the food which is of a high standard. The
home is clean and does not have an odour like other homes I have been in. I would highly recommend it.

My nana has been at Ferriby house for nearly 3 years! I am so pleased with the care she receives. My nana has dementia and can be difficult to care for at times but the staff are very patient kind and caring when dealing with my nana. All the staff and management are very approachable and are quick
to deal with any problems or questions me and my family may have. The food is always home cooked with local produce and always looks lovely and always hot! The cleanliness of the home is great there is always domestic staff around. Overall I am very pleased with the care my nana receives.

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.
