  • Croft House, Taunton
Croft House is located in a scenic location, where it opened in 2011 as purpose-built care home. It includes en-suite accessible bathrooms and dedicated areas within the home for dementia care.

There is plenty to do thanks to a dedicated Activities Co-ordinator. Residents have access to IT facilities to stay in touch with friends and family further afield.

The philosophy of Croft House is that residents are supported to live as freely and independently as they wish, while having access to a highly-trained and friendly team of care staff who get to know each individual.

Review from David (Son of Resident) published on 17 March 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum went to Croft House for residential care having previously spent several months in hospital followed by a brief spell in a nursing home. Her intent was to stay at Croft for a few weeks while she regained sufficient mobility to allow her to return home. This she achieved in no small measure due
to the tremendous support of the staff who assisted with both her physical recovery and the rebuilding of confidence. She found the care staff to be responsive to her needs day and night, and despite the pressures of work, they made time to talk to her and encourage her. The regime at the home appears to be well organised and convivial with care staff pulling in the same direction and supported by a management team who are themselves very involved in the care routines. Last but not least, Mum enjoyed the food at Croft and appreciated the way in which the kitchen staff catered for her restricted dietary needs. Our thanks as relatives to all those involved in Mum’s care.

Review from Suzie (Daughter of Resident) published on 1 February 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I would just like to say what a refreshing wind has swept through Croft House since the new manager has taken over. We have a smiling face, open door and new hope for Croft House. My mum has been in Croft House for 8 years and has seen many changes but we hope this change has and will give us the boost
we all need.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.736)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.736) out of 10 for Croft House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 23 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 4.736 for Croft House is calculated as follows: ( (203 Excellents x 5) + (61 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 269 Ratings = 4.736
  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 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 67 registered maximum number of service users is 13.4, 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.
