Local care homes named among region's best

Springbank Care Home in Silsden and Skipton's Craven Nursing Home have been named in the Top 20 care homes in Yorkshire and the Humber.

They both feature in the list put together by carehome.co.uk, which is based on reviews from residents as well as their friends and relatives.

The two local homes are among almost 1,500 in the region, so to make the Top 20 is fairly special.

Amanda Hopkins, reviews manager of carehome.co.uk, said: "We now have over 200,000 reviews of care homes so we are able to give people a real insight into what a care home and its staff are like. Our reviews show the quality of their care, activities and nutrition as well as if the care home is value for money and the standard of their facilities.

“Reviews show they provide a high standard of care and we would like to congratulate them on being a Top 20 care home in Yorkshire and the Humber. It is such a big achievement to be named as a top rated care home by the residents who actually receive the care as well as their family and friends.

“Choosing a care home can be emotionally and physically exhausting so we hope our awards which are given to the highest rated homes will help make the search easier.”

A spokesperson for Springbank Care Home in Silsden said: “We are absolutely thrilled that two of the Homes in our Group have been awarded as Top 20 Care Homes in the Yorkshire and the Humber region. We cannot thank our residents, friends and family enough for all of their kind words
and the support we have from them. A huge thank you to our teams – they really do go above and beyond to deliver exceptional care to our residents, and this award is really down to all of their hard work.”
