Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I reviewed care facilities in a 20-mile area for a 92-year-old gentleman who is a family friend and have legal responsibility for. He lived in his home for 64 yrs, unfortunately on his own for the last 3, and was becoming less able to manage. As I looked at quite a few Croft House kept being recommended
to me, both from direct experience and knowledge of. I was very impressed on my first visit by the facilities, room sizes, comfortable areas to sit, daily activities, menus, food prepared and lovely gardens. It is a large comfortable home with a most charming atmosphere. However what was most sincere were all the staff, professionalism, respect and light-hearted manners. They project dedication and care and everyone has been so friendly. Health care is, as we all know from direct experience and social media, challenging. The level of individual care needs fluctuates but it is evident all staff do everything possible to make this a well-run home and my friend has his enthusiasm restored.

My aunt became a resident of Croft House Care Home in 2019 at the age of 99 years. I have been impressed over the subsequent years (and I'm not easily impressed !) by the consistently high standard - including the caring attitude of staff, good quality meals and wide range of activities. These have
all contributed to the good social skills and mobility my aunt still enjoys. The staff's arrangements for my aunt's 104th Birthday are an example of their thoughtfulness. They asked how my aunt wished to celebrate, she asked to visit her childhood home nearby and have lunch at the hotel in the town she frequented as a teenager. The kind carers fulfilled both requests outstandingly - including arranging with the new owners for my aunt to look around her old home and for birthday decorations at the hotel. A birthday party with cake and a visit by the Town Mayor concluded a very happy day. As I live some distance away it is reassuring to know my aunt has this level of care.

My mother has been a resident of Croft House Care Home since mid-December.
Croft House is in a delightful garden setting. The staff here are truly amazing. They are patient, kind, caring and respectful, and as my mum says, nothing is too much trouble for them. The residents here are extremely well
cared for, well entertained and very well fed as all the food is home-cooked and there is always a choice of meals.
My mum enjoys many of the activities that are on offer, from sewing classes to movie screenings and carpet bowls, as well as trips into town for tea.
The rooms are cleaned daily as are the private bathrooms. My mum wants for nothing here, is extremely happy and considers herself very fortunate to be in the hands of the expert care staff of Croft House.
I would highly recommend Croft House to anyone looking for excellent personal care for their loved ones.

From September 2021, when my mum moved into Croft House Care Home, the whole team were warm and welcoming and they totally succeeded in making it feel like home to her. Mum expressed on numerous visits how safe she felt and how she loved her personalised care. The food choices were perfect for her
and her regular hair treatments and visits from the chiropodist still gave her contact with the outside world. I would recommend Croft House to anyone looking for an excellent care home as my mum’s life was enriched by her time there.

I moved into Croft House Care Home in August 2021 having had several falls at home due to my Parkinson's. (My wife is in a care home with dementia and there was no alternative). From the moment I arrived I was welcomed by the friendly staff and shown to my spacious room overlooking the gardens. The
home is well furnished and clean with fitted carpets throughout. Having viewed a number of care homes, it is clear to me that Croft House is above the average.
All of the permanent staff are caring and helpful, always ready to provide assistance and to communicate with residents. Their commitment to the role is clearly obvious in every way. We are very lucky in being looked after by all of the team.
One final comment, whilst one understands the difficulty in recruiting new staff, I would like to see fewer agency staff on duty as they clearly have no loyalty to Croft House.

Review from Nigel D (Son of Resident) published on 18 May 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My mother has been resident in the care home for nearly 3 years now. She has always been treated with dignity, respect and care by all the staff. We had to trust the care home during the prolonged periods of Coronavirus lockdown, which sadly have taken their toll on Mum but the home certainly delivered
top-quality performance and kept us constantly updated on her health and welfare and they did take great care of her during this time.
My personal concern is that the care home is somewhat understaffed as they have a high number of residents who require two carers at a time. This can mean that other residents' calls for assistance can go unanswered for prolonged periods. We have had niggling issues with laundry going missing and essential toiletries needing replacing. The care home facilities have a somewhat tired and slightly grubby look and feel, but I understand a refurbishment programme is planned.
Overall though, the care home provides all the care and attention we would wish for Mum.

Thank you for your feedback. We are happy to hear the way you describe our staff and the way they kept you fully updated throughout the pandemic. I will pass your comments regarding staffing and the personal items on to the management team for you.

If anyone is looking for a care home for their relative, I would strongly recommend speaking to the lovely people at Croft House Care Home. From our first meeting with the home manager to meeting the staff who looked after my father during his stay, they were all so kind to all of us. It was very reassuring

My Grandmother has been a resident of Croft House for a year now after a succession of hospital admissions. The Croft has always provided wonderful care and their management of the COVID-19 situation has been fantastic. They have worked so hard to keep my Grandma well and despite not being able to see
my Grandmother for the past four months, we have taken great relief to know that she is in safe hands. I would definitely recommend this care home to any future residents

I have found the nursing staff to be excellent and the management team to be helpful and sympathetic to our needs although often their hands are tied.
The majority of the carers are excellent although one or two leave a lot to be desired. The cleaner at Croft House needs replacing. The food is delicious
and the kitchen staff are always cheerful and helpful. I do feel that Croft House is understaffed.
The residents' private rooms are nicely decorated although the bathroom door opens onto another door and there is no ventilation in any of the bathrooms. The residents sitting rooms and dining areas are very welcoming. My father, once settled, was happy at Croft House and I felt he was safe and well looked after.

Croft House nursing care home is an excellent home. My mum as been here for five weeks and I can’t praise them enough. The nurses and the carers along with the support staff give my mum all the care and love that she needs for her condition. They have been very supportive and willing and they are always
corporative. Everyone is so polite and caring. My mum was in another care home before this one and as a family, we wished our mum came here beforehand. My mum has had the best care possible at Croft.
Their standards are very high. The rooms are clean and spacious. The food is excellent we a wide choice on the menu.

From day one when our family friend was admitted I felt reassured and confident that she was receiving impeccable care. I was kept fully informed of both medical and pastoral care and nothing was too much trouble, in fact, the staff went out of their way to make sure I was kept fully up to date, day
or night. It is obvious that communication between all staff is excellent as any staff member that I spoke with was very knowledgeable of situations. Never once did I feel uncomfortable to phone or ask any questions, in fact, I felt valued and respected. I have no hesitation whatsoever in giving the highest recommendation possible from the experience I have had. I send my sincere thanks for making the most difficult time as bearable as possible.

I am happy to share my views that Croft House has been an excellent, caring and happy home for my mother for around 17 months now. From the moment she went into her room the staff have been very friendly and caring and like a family for her. Whatever the request the staff always make a big effort to
oblige and the activities, such as craft afternoons, games, singing around the piano or faith services have kept her happy. The food is of good quality, with options and individual tastes taken into account. I cannot praise Croft House enough and thank them for making my mother happy and safe, thus relieving my mind as well as hers.

My experience of having a parent at Croft House has been good. I feel that communication has become better over the last 9 months or so. There is a new Deputy Manager and she has immeasurably enhanced communication, being a fantastic link between myself and the Management.
Mum is very well looked after
by the extremely kind and caring Care staff. She really does feel secure there. Nursing staff are extremely efficient and professional. The carers are so kind. It is hugely important to have a level of trust between staff, residents and their family. I feel that this has really moved forwards at Croft, as our family likes to work with staff as a team.
I must mention the restaurant staff and restaurant manager; they are so upbeat, friendly and so smartly dressed! The restaurant manager goes above and beyond in so many ways- well beyond typical 'restaurant' duties!!
Staff have 'facetimed' me twice since lockdown. Many thanks to the Deputy Manager and to the Carer who facilitated this.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.517)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.517) out of 10 for Croft House Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 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 4.517 for Croft House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (143 Excellents x 5) + (74 Goods x 4) + (12 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 234 Ratings = 4.517
  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 Croft House Care Home is based on 19 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 38 registered maximum number of service users is 7.6, which has been reached with 19 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.
