Mother has been living at Rivelin over a year now and has clearly been well looked after, well fed, closely monitored for any deterioration in her conditions, and generally cared for to the highest standard. Sharon and her team are undoubtedly expert at the difficult job they have to do and the whole feeling of Rivelin is about caring for the people who live there. It is impressive how all the staff I have encountered treat Mother as the individual she is. Plenty of activities on offer but Mother can be awkward and refuse to take part, but she has always done that! Dementia is a dreadful condition and it is easy to see how effectively the staff here interact with the residents and support a dignified life for all. If you need a recommendation for a care home look beyond the quaint Victorian façade and sense what a caring environment is provided by the Rivelin Care Home.

My mother resided in this care home for a good long while. While she was there she recived the up most care and respect from all the team. The staff team are friendly and will go out of there way for the residents and there family's, nothing is ever too much. The home is very welcoming and friendly. The staff show compassion and caring to each and every individual there, it is one big family. Sharon and the staff team are superb and will do absolutely anything and everything within there power to ensure everyone is safe, comfortable, and happy. This home is a great choice for anyone wanting care for there loved ones and it's a home from home. My mother was very happy here, and I know she was treated with kindness and respect, in her final years. All the staff are dedicated to what they do and the care they give. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a home for there relatives.

My husband was cared for at home by myself, until it unfortunately became too much for me trying to care for him around the clock, living with no sleep most nights was taking its toll on my health. Initially he went into the Rivelin for respite until it was decided both he and myself would benefit from more help 24/7. I visited the Rivelin before he went there, checking out the rooms, dining hall, and facilities available to him to make him feel it was home from home. The Manager and all staff are very professional at what they do and give what i can only describe as perfect care. Nothing is ever too much for any of them, there are carers constantly around residents giving them all they need, regular snacks, drinks, activities for them to partake in and the food served in the dining room for main meals is of restaurant quality. When people are giving reviews on here, i hope they realise that the Rivelin is now under New Management, who know what they are doing and what their residents need to make their stay a clean and healthy environment where all they need is given 1,000 fold. I know my husband is safe in there with plenty of food and drinks supplied, in fact at a review the other day he had gained weight as the meals are ample to fill the hungriest resident hahaha of which he is one. So if you are reading reviews online about this care home, i suggest you visit just like i did, you dont need an appointment as the door is always open for access, just ring the bell and take a look for yourself, there are no hidden agenda's at this care home.

My father is a full time resident at rivelin care home. The staff are amazing with my dad considering his behaviour can be rather challenging at times. All the residents are well looked after and cared for and all the staff are so lovely and friendly. 5*+
