Review from R W (Daughter of Resident) published on 16 March 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has been in Highcroft Care Home for just over a year. She is currently the oldest resident and all the staff treat her with respect and care. She is extremely frail and she is treated gently and with respect. I know she likes to chat with the staff members and they always make time to sit
and talk with her. When I visit, the facilities are always clean and my mother is very safe and secure. Her bedroom is kept neat and clean and she always appears clean and well looked after. And from what I can see, the other residents appear to be clean and well looked after. The staff are always friendly and always ready to give an update on her current health. I'm very happy with the care that Mum has received since she moved in.

Review from Nikki A (Granddaughter of Resident) published on 9 March 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have nothing bad to say about this facility, as each time I’ve gone, I am satisfied with the treatment I have seen. My grandfather seems to like there he has managed to make a few friends. Even when I call he seems to be in good spirits the staff are amazing. I personally would definitely recommend
this care home to anyone who is looking for a safe place for their family member to stay.

Review from H R (Friend of Resident) published on 9 March 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My elderly neighbour whom our family become friendly with during the pandemic, has been here since May 2021. The manager and the main carer for her have been an absolute delight. All the carers I have met are friendly and all work really hard and that’s all down to the management as they strive to look
after their staff. Thank you for looking after my friend and for your continued support with social services as well.

Review from David W (Son of Resident) published on 16 February 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum was in the Highcroft Care Home at Walthamstow. The team at the home were conscientious, caring and very professional. The attitude of the managers and staff was very caring all across the board. I never felt when I left to go home that she was not in a safe environment. Maybe my mum could have
done more activities but that was down to her. I have been in a couple of care homes with other members of my family and this is the best. My family are very grateful and would recommend this one every time.

Review from Marilyn P (Daughter of Resident) published on 31 July 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My dad was in Highcroft for seven months until he was admitted to hospital where he died. I was extremely happy with it - the staff were absolutely wonderful - all of them. They were very, very kind to him - and to us his family. They did their best to interest him in activities, despite his reluctance!
He was always kept clean and presentable, a close eye was kept on his health and they made sure he ate properly. The food was of a high standard and his appetite improved after he moved into their care. I'm very grateful to all the staff for making my lovely dad's last months of life as pleasant as it could have been. In the ratings, the only reason I haven't given an excellent for facilities and activities is that the care home is a small one so those things are somewhat limited by that, which obviously can't be helped. In my dad's case though, it was everything he needed. I have actually already recommended Highcroft to a friend who now has her mother there.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.875)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.875) out of 10 for Highcroft Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 11 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.875 for Highcroft Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (113 Excellents x 5) + (14 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 128 Ratings = 4.875
  2. 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 Highcroft Care Home is based on 11 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 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
    2. 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 23 registered maximum number of service users is 4.6, which has been reached with 11 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
