Review from John C (Son of Resident) published on 1 July 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
When my Mum reached the age of 101, it became clear to the family that the time had come where she could no longer look after herself and she didn't want to be left alone. We started to look into care homes in the area and visited a number, some of which we found to be very questionable. Our cousin
recommended that we give St Edith's Court a visit as she knew a resident there and said how she was very happy there. We made an appointment and met the manager, she showed us around and we immediately felt that this was ideal for our Mum to spend the rest of her life. At the time there was no room vacant apart from the respite room so we moved Mum in while they were decorating and carpeting her own room. Mum has now settled in after 5 months and we, as a family, know that she is safe and extremely well looked after and cared for by the excellent staff. We would highly recommend that if you are currently in the same situation you contact St Edith's in Leigh on Sea.

Review from Julie W (Sister of Resident) published on 1 July 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My sister moved into St Edith's Court just over a year ago, understandably a little apprehensive but didn't take her long to settle in, everybody was kind and considerate nothing was too much trouble. I feel sure my sister wouldn't want to live anywhere else as she likes to join in with everything going
on within the home. Not long after she moved in, my mum joined St Edith's Court who was adamant she wasn't going into a home but, unfortunately, she could no longer care for herself. She soon settled and loved it even saying to me she wished she had done it sooner. Mum didn't have long at St Edith's Court, unfortunately, she passed away at the age of 90, but I couldn't fault the care she received, equally the same for my sister, she loves it

Review from Mark S (Son of Resident) published on 4 July 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Our Mum passed away in April 2018. Despite being extremely busy, the staff cared for her extraordinarily well, meeting even her intimate needs with a smile and a light heart.


They appreciated who she was as a person; a lady who loved a laugh and they treated her accordingly, having a giggle with

her whilst still being respectful and preserving her dignity, which demonstrated not only their empathy but also their skill at recognising her needs at that time.


We understand that caring isn't the most glamorous or well-paid job, we did our research and saw first hand what bad care and slovenly staff looked like in other care homes.


However, the carers at St Edith's never acted like that, we could tell they wanted to be there and it was clear they loved doing what they were doing.


We would recommend St Ediths to anyone, whether suffering from dementia, or, as was in my Mum's case, just physically not able stay in their own home any longer.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We find the staff very friendly and caring. Always prepared to help and give the best support.
Food is very good and all residents seem very comfortable. The resident's rooms are very clean and the home is always in great condition.
We thoroughly recommend St Edith's for any elderly people needing
care and the ultimate in home comforts. Plenty of activities and entertainment.
Always updating the resident care plans.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.549)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.549) out of 10 for St Edith's Court 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 26 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 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 4.549 for St Edith's Court is calculated as follows: ( (228 Excellents x 5) + (52 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) + (16 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 306 Ratings = 4.549
  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 St Edith's Court is based on 23 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 39 registered maximum number of service users is 7.8, which has been reached with 23 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.
