I have been very well looked after and I am grateful to everyone for their kindness throughout. A personal thanks to one member of staff who has been so helpful especially with the mobile phone. Also, the cleaner has kept my room spotless.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Although my mother has dementia and doesn't understand where she is, I know she is sometimes happy and that she likes the staff. As a visitor, I am always made to feel welcome by all categories of staff, and over the past 3 years, I have consistently seen them demonstrate a caring attitude in sometimes
challenging situations. Residents are clearly treated and respected as individuals.

Royal Court ticks all the boxes where my brother is concerned. His health has improved due to nourishment and personal care and he has peace of mind someone is on hand if he falls ill. Mentally he is much happier, motivated with the activities on hand and always greets us with a big smile, as do all
the staff, which is wonderful for us. I feel he's got an extended family.

My brother has been well looked after for the last few years. He is very happy in his 'flat'. He used to enjoy the outings and activities. The staff are all very caring and kind. I have always found all staff to be helpful if I needed to ask anything. I would recommend this home to anyone.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I find the staff very friendly and cannot do enough for my mother, always popping in and having a chat whenever someone's there. Mum seems happy to be there and has settled in nicely. They have entertainment, days out, a garden they can sit in, a nice conservatory. The rooms are always clean. It's like
a little flat. The resident has a separate bedroom and their own sitting room with a small kitchenette. Downstairs they have a communal sitting room with games, TV etc.

Review from Jane P (Nephew of Resident) published on 24 January 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I cannot thank the staff and praise them enough for their dedication above and beyond the call of duty in my aunt's final weeks. They arranged, between them, that she would never be on her own and someone was always holding her hand, reading to her, and playing music.


Their concern for both me and

her brother (my father) was touching.


I sincerely hope that I am lucky enough to be looked after by them in the future.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I am generally very satisfied with Royal Court. The staff seem trained and keep me well informed. My mother is not easy to manage, but most of the time, she is well handled. I appreciate having the kitchenette in the flat - although the cutlery I keep bringing in and most of the cups keep going missing
- the staff tell me they all go to the central dishwasher and never seem to come back! I am satisfied that my mother is safe there and there are lots of activities for her to partake in, should she wish to. Thank you for being so kind to both me and my mother.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Wonderful staff. Very caring and professional. When my mother went into care, my wife was working with the ambulance patient transport service and had a good knowledge of all the local care homes and rated Royal Court. It turned out to be better than we expected! We were always delighted with the care
my mother received and this gave us great peace of mind. Accommodation is excellent too.

Review from Marion J (Resident) assisted by family/friend published on 22 March 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I moved into this care home in September 2016 and have fully settled in. The staff helped me to adapt to the daily regime and I am quite happy with it. The staff are caring and interested in me as a person. As I am an insulin dependent diabetic, I rely on the staff to provide tablets and insulin injections
which are given at the right time and in the correct dosage. The staff keep me informed of all activities going on in the house but currently, I do not attend these. The food can sometimes be bland but recently there has been an improvement. Meals are tailored to my diabetes but on some occasions, meals have not been delivered. This review is based on the 6 months I have resided here.

Review from Margaret C (Daughter of Resident) published on 1 November 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother spent her last ten months in Royal Court. She was paralysed and unable to talk as a result of a stroke. The staff were extremely caring and looked after Mum well, showing both affection and kindness. During my mother's last days the care was outstanding, both mum and the family were looked
after. I cannot speak highly enough of the staff.


As my mother had problems swallowing, she could only eat pureed food so I cannot say we experienced the normal menu but what I saw (mostly tea-time) looked good. My mother was unable to take part in activities but there seemed to be a full and varied programme.

My mother moved into Royal Court in June 2013 at the age of 95 and was cared for there until her death in June 2016. Within the home she had her own lounge, bedroom, shower room and kitchenette. Her clothes and bedding were washed every day. Her flat was cleaned every other day and carpets shampooed
regularly. She had a choice of meals every day which were cooked to her liking. The staff are all pleasant, cheerful and caring and treated my mother with dignity and respect at all times.

Current Review Score: 9.2 (9.176)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.2 (9.176) out of 10 for Royal Court Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.4 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 10 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 4.426 for Royal Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (81 Excellents x 5) + (33 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Poors x 2) + (3 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 129 Ratings = 4.426
  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 4.75 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Royal Court Care Home is based on 10 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 = 3.75
    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 48 registered maximum number of service users is 9.6, which has been reached with 10 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.
