Reviews for Cheshire Grange Care Home

My Mother, only spent the last few months of her life at Cheshire Grange, the staff and the care is second to none, my Mum at aged 89 had been totally independent, living in her own home a taking good care of herself right up to 5 months before residing at Cheshire Grange. Sadly she had had a fall & incurred further complications and then became immobile, the transition from living independently to a long stay in hospital & then to a care home was understandably very difficult emotionally for my mum. I honestly can’t praise the home high enough for their compassion, understanding & genuine care in helping mum adapt.
The home is aesthetically beautiful like a 5* hotel, but where they truly shine is making it feel like home & the quality of care. THANK YOU for being there for Mum & us as a family through out her stay with you and her passing. ❤️

Mum receives excellent care at the Cheshire Grange Care Home. The lovely care staff are thoughtful, kind and patient. The nurses are ready to deal with the slightest ailment right through to much more serious conditions. The entertainment staff are busy keeping the residents happy with afternoon entertainment and dropping by the residents rooms for a friendly word. There are delightful hostesses to deliver regular hot drinks and distribute food at meal times, lovely staff on reception and the excellent caretaker fixes every kind of problem (including Mum’s wheelchair!) I am delighted that Mum is in such good hands.

"I'm proud to be able to volunteer at Cheshire Grange, residents are treated as individuals with respect and kindness by all the staff. The home is fitted out beautifully and the atmosphere is very welcoming and calm. The residents are given the choices and opportunities to listen to a variety of entertainers and special trips out which seem to bring a lot of happiness to them. The staff, residents and relatives have an obvious pride in their home which makes it a very special place to be."

"My mum spent the last few months of her life in here. She was happier here than she had been for a long time. She was well looked after and cared for by all the fantastic nurses and staff. It was a great relief for my family to see her enjoying the last few months of her life.. I would like to thank all the staff nurses and everybody else for taking such good care of my mum."

"My nan has been resident of this care home for close to 3 years. She is bed bound due to disable and having serious dementia. The care home are all contacting my family with any issues that my nan may have. She's is very well looked after from friend staff from day interaction at meal times to bathing. Staff are really friendly with the family from the lady at the sign in desk to the nurses looking after the residents and my nan clearly loves being in the care home. I really cannot rate this care home enough."

"The Home is kept in beautiful condition, bright, clean and the staff are very friendly and helpful. The care is excellent. My mother-in-law, who has Alzheimer's, has been a resident for over 2 years and we have been delighted with the care she has received. She is so happy and contented and feels so safe and cared for, especially in the current (pandemic) circumstances. My mother in law and all our family would like to thank all the staff for providing such a safe, friendly and caring environment and we would recommend Cheshire Grange wholeheartedly to anyone considering care for their loved ones."

"I have been a volunteer at Cheshire Grange for over 5 years. I thoroughly enjoy spending time doing activities with the residents or just chatting. I became a volunteer after my brother passed away - he was a resident. The staff were so good with him I just wanted to give something back. I have not been to Cheshire Grange since 16th March as I decided to self isolate due to Covid-19. I have missed going to Cheshire Grange so much, I can’t wait for it to be safe for me to go back. I cannot recommend Cheshire Grange highly enough. The staff are wonderful and really care for the residents."

"My mother, who recently passed away, was a resident at Cheshire Grange for a number of years until her death. The care that she received was always excellent and especially so at the end when, under the most difficult of circumstances due to the Covid pandemic, she was nursed with great compassion and care. She suffered a lot of frustration being dependent on her carers in a way that she would never have wanted but the staff always treated her with respect and showed enormous patience and kindness to her for which she, and her family, were extremely grateful."

"My 92 yr old mother who has dementia and is registered blind has been a resident at Cheshire Grange since March 2020. The care she has received is exemplary and we are more than happy with the home. In particular, the standard of care and the dedication of all the staff is superb. I have been touched to see how skilfully the staff helped both my mother and me acclimatise to the massive change of moving from her home for 50 years into residential care. This happened at the start of the pandemic, which brought immense challenges to the staff - they have risen to those challenges admirably and always with a cheery disposition. I would heartily recommend Cheshire Grange to anyone looking for residential care for their loved ones."

"Staff are fantastic, very friendly and helpful, Mum is extremely well cared for. Nothing is any trouble for them and they work very hard to make sure that the relatives, have had the chance over the COVID pandemic, to face time and have zoom calls with their loved ones."

"Handing over the care of a much-loved mother was such a difficult thing but all the staff at Cheshire Grange have been absolutely fabulous. They care for Mum so well and support the family too. I really can’t recommend them highly enough."

"My mum is in the Cheshire Grange in Lymm. I am so impressed with all the staff there. I live in Newbury so I am not close, but the staff involve me in everything that is going on with my mum. I get a FaceTime with her normally twice a week. I also am able to speak to the nurse when I phone. Where my mum is, l can’t praise the home and staff enough. My mum is mostly bedridden. It took a while to get her pain under control, it was the first time they had come across this but they should have said earlier that my mum has got Alzheimer's, Parkinson’s and she has Osteoporosis. She is a fantastic mum and we the family no she is being looked after so well, we couldn’t wish for anything else a doctor in and he finally got it sorted. My Dad and my sisters are allowed in now. My mum definitely knows who my Dad is. When he visits she just holds his hand all the time."

"It is difficult both to find fault with any aspect of care that my wife receives, but also to single out staff members for special praise as in my experience they are all to a person cheerful, helpful and caring individuals. Like most residents, my wife has certain special needs and these are met by the staff competently and efficiently. She feels very safe and looked after in Cheshire Grange. The manager leads and motivates a great team and they combine safety with compassion. The atmosphere in the home is always friendly and positive. We have particularly appreciated the outside spaces and gardens during and after lockdowns."

"The Staff have been excellent and patient and I am totally happy with the medical care plan that has been instigated. I like the way that the Staff involve the resident about their care and discuss things to get the best solutions to suit the situation. The atmosphere when I visit is peaceful, happy and friendly. The overall quality of the care is exceptional."

"My 92-year-old mum has been in Cheshire Grange for four years and has received excellent care throughout. During the pandemic when visiting was not allowed the staff kept me updated on everything that was happening and how well she was coping. This was very reassuring as it was a difficult time for everyone concerned. The staff are cheerful and this has a positive effect on the residents and relatives, Although mum"s memory is deteriorating the care and attention she receives is excellent and the carers encourage her to remember her time at Cheshire Grange with much laughter and encouragement. She has been very happy. Recently mum has been in and out of hospital but the staff have always included me in any decisions which had to be made. Everyone works together in teams to make the home run smoothly"

"I love that Cheshire Grange is a purpose-built care home that can cater for all my mum's needs. The staff are lovely; a lot are the same staff from when Mum first arrived five years ago, so it feels like a second home. I wish there was a bit more happening on Bridgewater, although I can appreciate entertainment can be difficult. It was a shame there were no decorations for Cheshire Grange's 10th birthday, for instance. The flowers on the balcony this year are a nice touch. Overall, it's a lovely care home, and I'm glad that Mum lives there and is well looked after by the lovely staff and nurses."

"Where do I begin and how do I ever thank you for making the decision to take Mum into your care at Cheshire Grange? As you know, since her head injury she had terrible experiences and never settled and seemed to constantly be in mental and physical pain. It was very traumatic at times for me to watch. When she came out of Warrington Hospital into the warmth of Cheshire Grange and the brilliant, brilliant nurses, carers, housekeepers, chefs and the lovely lady on reception (I hope I haven't missed anybody!) I knew that Mum was in safe, caring hands. To one member of staff, in particular, I will never ever forget your face, voice, hugs and kindness. You were my rock I could turn to. Without your reassurance and keeping me updated, I would be a far sadder person than I am today. The comfort we have is that Mum passed away in the most beautiful, calm, professional caring home. Thank you to everybody at Cheshire Grange, you are family to us."

"I wish to pay tribute to all the staff who cared for my dad with such dignity and respect in the last months of his life Everyone involved was so kind and caring and made me very welcome when visiting. The decision to transfer a loved one to the care of others is very difficult but it was the right one as I was able to spend more quality time with Dad in his last months."

"My dad changed homes after being in another home and neglected. He ended up in hospital for 3.5 weeks. I went to look at Cheshire Grange and before viewing upstairs I knew this home was the most amazing home for Dad. The staff are just family all working so closely together for the best care for each and every resident. Unfortunately, Dad passed away after 10 days. The care, love, empathy and total dedication of every member of the staff were truly amazing. We cannot praise everyone enough for all they have done. Thank you will never be enough."

"My sister has been in the brilliant care of the staff at Cheshire Grange for approximately six years. She has a neurological condition and has difficulty communicating with her carers and the medical staff. Despite this, the staff have been superb in ensuring that she enjoys the best possible care and that her needs are constantly monitored, assessed and immediately dealt with. I cannot praise the staff too highly and the facilities are second to none. A massive thank you to the manager and all her brilliant staff at Cheshire Grange."

"Excellent throughout, although more care/training is required concerning recharging and use of hearing aids. Two have been "lost" over the last 9 months or so and at £1800.00 each this is no small consideration."

"My mum came to Cheshire Grange having spent eight weeks in hospital. Mum never mentions going home as this is her home. She is comfortable and content. The design of the building is superb, with easy access doors, a welcoming area in the cafe, wide corridors, a relaxing lounge and a garden to reflect upon your visit. The staff here are truly amazing, friendly, compassionate and joyful. Mum is exceptionally well cared for, with attention to her every need. I always look forward to visiting my mum, and whatever the future brings, I feel totally supported."

"My mother moved into Cheshire Grange in July 2023 following a fall. The care that she has received in the last 12 months has been outstanding. The staff and management are so nice and caring with her. She has a lovely, spacious room overlooking the garden, and she enjoys being at Cheshire Grange. The food and drink on offer are excellent, and there are many activities for her to be involved in."

"The manager manages the home very professionally. The head of nursing and the whole team across the services were amazing and everyone showed great compassion. We were worried about choosing the right home and this one shone out above all others. Many of the residents' relatives feel the same way as all of the staff are friendly, caring and nothing is too much trouble."

"Extremely high standards, excellent communications. The first thing I noticed was how clean it was, it actually smelled clean when I entered, always a good sign. My mother was treated with the highest regard and greatest of care. I have nothing to report. A great place to place a loved one."

"The staff are second to none. Always kind, helpful, understanding and endlessly patient. When entering the nursing home it is clean and fragrant but sometimes there is an odour in the corridors and I think a room spray in the corridors may be a help. My mother is self-funding and it's frighteningly expensive."

"The first time I stayed for 2 months when I broke both arms and I liked the place and everybody was friendly and very helpful. So when I needed help again, my family booked me in again for 2 weeks only. And again, it was very nice, and I could have my dog visit and she just loved the land around the home, and everybody loved her. And if we need, we will both come back again."

"I am writing this review about Cheshire grange and there are not enough words to explain the extremely outstanding service that my mum together with myself and other family members received from each and every member of the staff. My mum moved there to end her life and unfortunately was only a resident for less than a week but within that time every member of staff always had time for us no matter what they were doing nothing was to much trouble, courteous, polite, helpful, understanding, empathise. If anyone is looking for a care home for there relative, then look no further."

"I needed a care home for a week-long respite period for my mother-in-law who was recovering from a serious operation. I researched a lot of care homes before selecting Cheshire Grange. I had left it very late to book and worried that I had left it too late. However the office staff assured me that they had a place and that there was plenty of time to organise the stay. My mother-in-law has a lot of food intolerances which makes cooking for her quite difficult but the chef at Cheshire Grange was exceptional in providing food which, even though not on the daily menu, he/she was happy to prepare separately. A member of staff even told me that he/she had enjoyed the challenge! My mother-in-law does not socialise easily but she told me that she had enjoyed the events put on by the home. My mother-in-law was very happy with her stay and said it was more like a hotel than a care home. All the staff who I met were lovely, kind and could not do enough to ensure that my mother-in-law was well cared for. I would absolutely recommend this care home."

"I am a family friend of two residents who I visit three times a week and I must state what a fantastic place it is. The staff are pleasant very friendly especially one lady what a lovely person she is, I have a very good judge at people and she is so real, no put ons at all. The food is great and a good choice and I wish when it comes around I could stay! We get pots of tea and even sometimes great cake. The staff need to be recommended to a high standard for what they do and lovely manner."

"My father deserved the best as he came towards the end of his life and this home gave him the best care possible. His own room was comfortably furnished and afforded him his own independence which he so desired. Meals were of a high quality and the staff looked after him with such kindness and dedication to their job. He always enjoyed the lovely gardens to sit in also. It was always a treat for us to visit him too as we were always met with such warmth and hospitality. Towards the end, as his requirements were for extra nursing, we were overwhelmed by the kindness, care, and dignity shown to him by the nursing staff here. I thoroughly recommend this home to anyone who has fears of placing their nearest and dearest in a care home."

"In an extremely difficult environment in which to provide continual assistance with daily living, I found the above able to offer a very comprehensive level of care. Without any signs of incompetence, I was able to engage on a personal level with staff across the care service spectrum relieving me from the overwhelming responsibilities and trails involved in both the routine and the unpredictabilities brought about by illness and old age making a bleak situation seem bearable."

"My mother arrived at Cheshire Grange in August 2016. The move to a care home was a big decision for us as a family and I reviewed a number of care homes in my area. I was immediately struck by the extremely pleasant environment that is provided at Cheshire Grange. It doesn't feel like a care home and provided a lovely, clean and homely atmosphere. My Mum had always insisted on high standards in her own home and therefore I knew this would be a good choice. My Mum is unfortunately in the advanced stages of Motor Neurone Disease (MND), a complex and distressing condition. Cheshire Grange are providing me and my Mum with as much support as they possibly can. They have worked with me to access additional extended support and provide me and my Mum with emotional support. The nurses and carers I have got to know are extremely patient and caring."

"We moved my Mum to The Barchester Grange as I was not happy with the care she was getting in her other home. We chose this home for its care and attention it gives its residents. The atmosphere was lovely, not aggressive, all the carers had time to chat and interact with all the residents. This home cares with a capital C, I only wish I had found it sooner for Mum, but I am very glad I did find it. My Mum went from being fed and unclean in her old home to feeding herself and being treated with dignity in The Barchester Grange. We would definitely recommend it."

I don't know how I would have managed without the help and support of Cheshire Grange. I understand how difficult it is to look after so many individuals with so many differing needs, but, Cheshire Grange you do an outstanding job of looking after all your residents. Thank You."

"I spent five weeks in May 2017 on respite nursing care. I had cardiac surgery and following this, I had swallowing problems relating to previous surgery. I had been in hospital for ten weeks and needed twenty-four-hour care to help me. All the nursing team, carers and everyone else in catering, cleaning, laundry, entertainment were excellent. My tube-feeding required registered nurses and the level of care was excellent. The standard of the home, decor, bathrooms, dining room, was lovely. Visitors are welcomed and could have meals with you. Food was reported as excellent by my wife (I was tube fed). More like a hotel with nurses!"
