I cannot praise Quarry Mount enough for the kindness and care given to my mum after she moved in. On her first day she was obviously upset has she had had to move from her previous home. By the afternoon she was singing into a microphone with a fantastic singer; tapping her feet and smiling, they had
made a real effort and told the singer her favourite songs. She has happily settled in and enjoys the activities that are provided. We are reassured that they are a care home that goes the extra mile to ensure the care and support the residents need. I would not hesitate to recommend Quarry Mount to anyone needing care for a loved one.

Well its 10 months since my last review and I still think coming to Quarry Mount was the right decision for me. in my last review in 2024, I said how I had this homely feeling when i walked in and still feel the same, its a happy place where care workers and management put there heart and soul in
to caring for us. We have top entertainment with first class entertainment person. the management care deeply about our health and feelings, we have freedom of speech, and we are listened too! Although the building is old, it is very comfortable, with comfortable rooms which we can make our own. Since being here I feel I have been very happy and would recommend this very caring home to any one.

My Auntie, who lives at Quarry Mount has been there since 2016 and I could not be more pleased with her care. The staff are kind and considerate and the staff and especially the manager are the most helpful and hard working.
On July 3rd it was my Auntie's birthday and so I went with my husband and
parents (my 97 year old dad is her brother) The staff were considerate of dads mobility and made sure we had cold drinks as it was a hot day. Auntie was given a birthday cake and staff sang to her as they bought out the cake. This is done for all residents irrespective of visiting relatives. This I have found out having been there at times of other residents birthdays. They had organised a singer as there was more than one birthday being celebrated on the day. What a kind thought!
Auntie is always kept clean and provided with company and good nutritional food. Always kept with fluids of hot and cold as is necessary. On this day Auntie was bright and happy and it was good to see.

What an amazing place . Mum has been here for only three weeks but settled in straight away .
The Staff are amazing and kept reassuring us that mum was doing well.
She already has new friends, staff and other residents.
Its a very homely place with lovely rooms . Mum likes the conservatory.
With
only about 22 residents its small enough for the staff to take time to sit and chat with the residents.
Food is very good with plenty of choice .
Mum also enjoys the many activities that are going on . I wasn't sure she would like to join in but I was wrong
she loves it .
Highly recommended.

Staff are always friendly, polite and very attentive to the residents. We believe that our relative is very well cared for, with lots of effort being given to ensuring pastimes and activities are personalised, helping them feel comfortable and safe. We often receive detailed updates on their wellbeing
and the staff are always happy to arrange video calls for when we are unable to visit in person. The management is brilliant and works with genuine care for the residents.

I am extremely happy with the care that my mum receives from all the staff at Quarry Mount. She seems happy in herself and is always well-presented. Management are very helpful and always pass on anything I need to know, for instance if Mum is unwell. The care home is a lovely environment for the residents

Amazing care home for my mother, I cannot praise the staff enough, they make everyone feel like it truly is their home and they are amongst people who really care. They are so very professional in everything they do. Their response rate is excellent whenever there is any potential issue regarding health
ensuring Mum is seen by a doctor, nurse or other professional immediately then straight away letting me know not only that there is an issue, but how they are already responding to it. They also keep everyone as busy as they want to be, take time to find out what they like doing or are interested in, provide a varied programme of entertainment and activities, spend time with each of the residents individually and are really easy to talk to when I have any questions or concerns. I really feel my mum is in safe hands!

Kind, caring and considerate staff. Good management and excellent communication with our family concerning Mum's care and continued care and medications. Excellent and varied daily activities to engage residents where possible. Environment although in an old building, is made to feel welcoming. Residents
have a beautiful garden which they can use in good weather. They can also where possible wander at will in the building and gardens.
Rooms are fairly basic, but very well cleaned on a daily basis and residents are encouraged to spend time in the lounges and conservatory.
The home has an open door policy for visits and from what I can see good relationships with the area they are in.

Always received very good response from staff when I’ve requested help with my sister. She appears to be content on most of my visits. But would prefer her to be moved at the earliest opportunity to a bigger room where I’m sure she would be happier as this is one of the complaints she has. Her room
is very small. The staff are kind and helpful at all times to my sister. I visit regularly and never have a problem with them.

We booked my father into Quarry Mount for 5 days while we attended my daughter's wedding. Although physically quite well my father is 94 and very forgetful. We needed somewhere for him to stay that could care for him and also get him ready for the wedding service. Being able to leave him in the care
of the manager and the team and concentrate on our wedding planning, knowing he would arrive at the right place and the right time in the appropriate clothes. was a huge weight off our minds. All the staff at Quarry Mount were extremely helpful and my father was very grateful for the care they showed him while he was there.

Generally, everything runs very smoothly and staff are very attentive. Although food is generally good, more attention to client menu requests, when food is served up, would ensure they get whatever they ordered. Sometimes requests take a long time to fulfil due to forgetfulness. I am happy with my
mother’s care in principle, it just requires a few tweaks that I am sure the manager will have sorted.

I have liaised with the Manager regularly over the past 6 months at least about moving my aunt into the home. She has been so refreshing and easy to deal with despite her extremely busy role at the home. She always has time to talk and her responses are always very informative. Her assistance helped
me persuade my aunt to go into 24/7 care in one of the self-dependant bungalow rooms and she has settled in very well against all expectations. She continues to be very helpful and friendly whenever I contact quarry mount from Australia to check up on the welfare of my aunt.
She's a star and is representative of all the staff at the home and epitomises what families look for in a fantastic care home manager.


Well done.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.830)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.830) out of 10 for Quarry Mount Residential Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 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 4.830 for Quarry Mount Residential Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (119 Excellents x 5) + (20 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 141 Ratings = 4.83
  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 Quarry Mount Residential Care Home is based on 12 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 26 registered maximum number of service users is 5.2, which has been reached with 12 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.

Sue Harris

Job Title: Proprietor/Director Joined: 2002

Sue’s journey in care originally started in the 1970s when she worked for several years as a Care Assistant for the elderly. Sue then focused on raising her young family until returning to the care industry in 2002 when she and her late husband Richard purchased their first care home, Quarry Mount, in Swindon. Their vision for compassionate care expanded in 2009 with the acquisition of a sister home, Northfield House in Stroud. At the heart of Sue’s approach is the belief that both residents and staff should be treated as part of an extended family. This philosophy has been the cornerstone of her care homes’ success and reputation.


The powerful motto is “Care with Compassion & Commitment”. encapsulates the ethos that drives every aspect of care at both homes: The staff are chosen not only for their qualifications but also for their ability to show kindness, understanding, and empathy. The dedication to providing the highest quality of care is evident in the staff, ensuring personalised attention for each resident. Quarry Mount is more than just a care facility; it’s a true home for its residents:

Karen went on to achieve her Registered Managers award and has completed countless training seminars and individual training courses to expand her knowledge over the years and keep up to date with any changes to the legislation.

Claire

Claire Thorne

Job Title: Assistant Manager Joined: 2021

Claire Joined Quarry Mount in 2021 having made the decision to take a leap of faith with a complete change of career. Care was something that Claire had felt naturally drawn to try, as it fitted with her very caring nature.


Combined with her previous organisational and supervisory experience, this meant that we soon identified Claire’s strong leadership skills and suitability to work alongside supporting Karen as our Assistant Manager, helping to lead the staff and completing required processes.
