Aire View Care Home in Kirkstall is one of two Avery homes based in Leeds. It has been serving Yorkshire for the past ten years with residential, dementia and respite services and has gained top quality status from Leeds City Council.

The home warmly welcomes couples or companions to continue their care journey together.

The standard of excellence is reflected in the one-to-one care and holistic attention given to all residents, whatever their needs.

Families are also offered support and encouraged to join in the life of the home.

The home offers a variety of facilities open to residents daily. They can catch a film in the home's cinema or pamper themselves by having their hair and nails done in the hair salon and nail bar. If it's a bit of downtime that the residents require, then they can take full advantage of the relaxation room. The café offers the perfect place for residents to catch up over a coffee or a cup of tea with relatives or fellow residents.

A minibus enables residents to get out and about. Residents visit the local theatre, pubs, garden centres and can even make a trip to the Leeds Liverpool canal.

Putting a loved one into care is never easy. The Aire View Care Home made this experience less traumatic, showing compassion and kindness. The care for Mum has been amazing with support from medical professionals whenever required. We rest peacefully knowing that Mum is well looked after.

Aire View Care Home is fantastic! From the very first time my brother and I visited the Care Home we felt it had a homely, welcoming atmosphere. We were impressed by the quality of the facilities and the beautiful gardens. We knew it would be a good place for our mum and dad to receive respite care
following dad's long period of illness. Unfortunately, things did not go according to plan, dad went back into hospital whilst mum remained in the care of Aire View. Sadly, dad's return to Aire View two weeks later was to receive palliative care. The professional nursing care given to our dad allowed him to pass away with dignity and peacefully four days later. Throughout this difficult time, all staff provided an outstanding level of care so that mum felt safe, well cared for and she thoroughly enjoyed joining in various activities including keep fit, singing, Bingo and of course getting her hair done. We would not hesitate to recommend Aire View Care Home - thank you!

Reply from Paula Pearson, Home Manager at Aire View Care Home - Avery Healthcare

Thank you for your lovely review of Aire View Care Home in Leeds. It was a true pleasure to care and support both your mum and dad, along with you as a family.

Thank you again and we look forward to hopefully having your mum to stay with us again soon. Best wishes, Paula.

I have been very pleased with how the care home at Aire View has catered for my mum's needs. The carers have all been supportive, kind and gone the extra mile with regard to the care of my mum. Mum's room is a very pleasant one, and Mum is always keen to tell me how much she enjoys the food and the
friendliness of the staff. So overall, it is a very satisfactory home for my mum.

My mother has dementia. My father passed away in January 2021, leaving my mother living alone. Earlier this year, we (my family) took the tough decision that my mother was no longer able to look after herself. We undertook an extensive search of various local Care Homes. On our visit to look around
Aire View, we were able to see first hand the lovely way the residents were looked after and treated by the staff. We all immediately thought that this was the right place for my mother. Aire View have more than lived up to this. My mother (a tough, belligerent and independent character) is settled, happy and looks better than she has done for many years. I am so grateful to the staff at Aire View who have my mother's life so pleasant and enjoyable. In addition, despite COVID restrictions, I am always made to feel so welcome when I visit. Thank you.

My dad has vascular dementia and I feel that overall the staff at the care home are doing a good job in taking care of him, especially under the pressure of the pandemic. Occasionally I have noticed that Dad's nails and hair grow quite long, and I have had to request that they get cut a few times. Also
with Dad being in their dementia suite, other residents often wander into his room and take things, so unfortunately he has been missing both his pairs of prescription glasses for several months. The staff are nice and keep me well informed of any incidents that occur.

Not long after a visit, my mum tried to leave her room and fell. The staff decided she needed an ambulance, and she was taken to the hospital. One of the carers accompanied her. I was not available until early evening. Mum fell at 3.30 pm, and the carer stayed with her until 9 pm. Mum was in the hospital
for four days. On her return to the care home, she was welcomed back, and as always, received excellent care. I cannot fault the staff for the care Mum has been given in the five last five years. Thank you.

My father became a resident towards the end of February 2022. I was a bit reluctant to take this step, but it was the best thing I could have done. He has settled in better than I could hope for. He gets on well with the staff and loves a joke. The food is excellent. I'm very happy for him to be there.

Since my mum entered Aire View back in 2017, she has received exemplary care, consideration, and respect from all the staff there. They show her and us, her family, a level of interest and attention which makes us feel included and a part of Mum's continuing care. We would heartily recommend the home
to others.

Aire View is an excellent care home. My sister has been in Aire View for just over 15 months - she seems to have settled in very nicely. The staff are all very good with my sister - which I'm really pleased with.

My mum moved into Aire View in January 2022 and it was one of the hardest decisions I had to make. But the care that is provided is first class. She is well looked after and safe which is a blessing for me as I live in Ireland. I cannot get to see her as often as I would like so the home arranges weekly
Skype calls between me and Mum which is great. Every member of staff that I have met has been kind, caring, and empathetic and I would recommend Aire View to anyone having to make the decision to put their loved one into a care home. They are a fantastic team and willing to go that extra mile.

I am so happy that my mother is settled and well cared for at the home. Every visit I can see for myself that she is doing well and the staff all seem genuinely committed to the welfare of the residents. The home is a lovely clean, light, and airy environment and my mother's room overlooks the garden,
so it is always a pleasure to visit her. As a former support worker, I can say from experience that Aire View is one of the best run and most presentable homes I have come across. I am so grateful to the staff who make my mother's later life so pleasant.

Mum has recently moved into Aire View and I am impressed by the warm and friendly staff - not just the welcoming receptionist and home manager, but everyone is so helpful. Mum originally came for a 3-week respite and now is staying permanently! I cannot thank you all enough for the care and support
you have given me and my mum - you have all been through a horrid year with the pandemic and it's great to see you all so happy and positive. I now don't worry about mum as I know she is well cared for and safe.

Dad spent approximately 2.5 years at Aire View. Had it not been for lockdown he would have left in 2020. From Day 1 the staff 'trained him' that help would not come when required. Consequently, he had to suffer the indignity of using 'continence knickers' despite knowing when he needed the toilet because
sometimes he had to wait over an hour for help to get him to the bathroom. Furthermore, the staff did not help to keep his clothes clean at mealtimes to compensate for his Parkinson's symptoms. In his final 24 hours, the staff failed to communicate the meaning of 'Fast Track' to my brother. They also only permitted a 30-minute visit which resulted in Dad dying alone and without a loved one. I can never recommend Aire View as a care home.

Reply from Paula Pearson, Home Manager at Aire View Care Home - Avery Healthcare

Thank you for taking the time to review Aire View Care Home. It was a pleasure to have had your father as part of our loving care community here at Aire View, and he is deeply missed by all. In regards to continence supplies, these are made by assessment from the NHS continence service as to what is appropriate for each individual and items for this are supplied by them, aids are used in conjunction with supporting individuals continence requirements. End of life protocols was adhered to as per government guidance for care homes during Covid-19, and we totally understand that this was frustrating for families. This was explained in full by the deputy manager during his final days. If you wish to discuss this further then please do not hesitate to contact the home directly via email or telephone call.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.620)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.620) out of 10 for Aire View Care Home - Avery Healthcare is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 21 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 4.620 for Aire View Care Home - Avery Healthcare is calculated as follows: ( (159 Excellents x 5) + (66 Goods x 4) + (12 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 237 Ratings = 4.62

  • 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 Aire View Care Home - Avery Healthcare is based on 21 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 84 registered maximum number of service users is 16.8, which has been reached with 21 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.
