Review from S P (Daughter of Client) published on 26 October 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Ross Nursing Services Ltd has been assisting my mother with her hygiene needs for six months. She and I are impressed by the high standard of care provided by all staff she has contact with, as they discretely provide assistance as required whilst also promoting independence where appropriate and always maintaining safety. Timekeeping is always good, as is communication.

Reply from Ros Darton, Registered Manager at Ross Nursing Services Ltd

Thank you, it is always a pleasure to visit your mother.

Review from Richard H (Cousin of Client) published on 4 August 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Ross Nursing Services took over the care duties for my 83-year-old cousin from emergency carers approximately 5/6 weeks ago.
I cannot praise the manager and her team enough. They are local carers to where my cousin lives and without their assistance, she would no longer be able to live in her own house. Their care is personal and friendly and as next of kin - and those closely linked to helping her - we are able to view the carers' notes online to see how she is getting on (or not). We are also contacted if there are any problems or issues to discuss.

I would highly recommend anybody thinking of using their services.

Thank you, Richard. We all enjoy visiting your cousin and all her animals.

Review from Sally B (Niece of Client) published on 4 August 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Ross Nursing Care has been attending my 94-year-old aunty for the past year and I can honestly say that it was the best decision we could have made - all our carers have exceeded our expectations and go above and beyond at all times.

We have had changing needs throughout the past year and they always manage to accommodate us, often at very short notice. My aunt's dementia has become steadily worse, we believe as a result of the pandemic, as she no longer experiences the social interaction she used to enjoy pre-Covid. Apart from their normal caring duties like administering her medication, cooking meals for her, helping her in the house, all of my aunt's team are kind, generous, caring and very importantly willing to give her time and to sit and chat with her over a cuppa. We honestly couldn't ask for more. I unreservedly recommend the carers and management team at Ross Nursing Care.

Review from Claire A (Friend of Client) published on 23 July 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our friend was elderly and increasingly relied on care to enable her to live in her own home. During the pandemic, she was inevitably physically isolated from friends and the carers became an important source of social contact. As she grew frailer and more unwell, they supported her with care, compassion and dignity. In her final few days, they remained with her and talked to her and looked after her, often staying long beyond their allotted shifts. When she died, they were immensely kind and supportive of us. They had built a good relationship with her over the time that they had looked after her and she viewed them as friends.

Reply from Ros Darton, Registered Manager at Ross Nursing Services Ltd

Thank you so much Claire. I know the carers were tremendously fond your friend. She was a fascinating lady to talk to and we all had a huge amount of respect for her.

Review from Helen M (Granddaughter of Client) published on 17 December 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I have been extremely impressed by the care, professionalism and dedication of the Ross Nursing team, who are caring expertly for my grandmother. They have all been incredibly kind, patient and completely go beyond the call of duty for her. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone considering care for a family member. Through their efforts, my grandmother is managing to live independently. Even during this particularly challenging year, the team have not let the restrictions of Covid-19 interfere with their expert care services. I sincerely thank them.

Reply from Ros Darton, Registered Manager at Ross Nursing Services Ltd

Thank you very much for your kind words, Helen. It has been a challenging year but we've pulled together as a team and are stronger as a consequence.

Review from Derek W (Son of Client) published on 10 December 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Ross Nursing Services have been providing professional, friendly and compassionate care for my mum for several years. They have consistently performed beyond my expectations, with attention to detail, constant open communication with me, always going above and beyond the reasonable expectation of care. Often finding my mum unresponsive due to a health condition, they liaise with the ambulance and doctor and send additional colleagues to ensure Mum is safe at all times. This is a great comfort to me and Mum. They manage complex medication and are flexible in the allocated times (4 x per day) depending on Mum's needs. I highly recommend Ross Nursing Services and am happy to talk to any prospective customer.

Reply from Ros Darton, Registered Manager at Ross Nursing Services Ltd

Thank you very much for your kind words, Derek. The carers love visiting your Mum, she is a real character and a pleasure to look after.
