Mother went into respite care and is now a resident. The staff and facilities are very good. Due to Covid, the family haven't been able to see her room. She seems happy, and we, as the family, are happy knowing she's being looked after by people who care for her and her needs.

Very difficult to provide a review as have only been able to visit a few times before lockdown. However, the staff and management are very helpful with phone contact and health information.
Reply from Sue Harris, Director at Quarry Mount Residential Care HomeThank you very much for your review. The lockdown situation is so unfortunate as when the home is running normally (Pre Covid) we very much welcome and encourage open visits from family and friends. We hope it will not be too long before we can welcome everyone back in the home once more.

Quarry Mount is a wonderful place. The staff are outstanding, always providing excellent care.
My mother is extremely well cared for, and I feel very relaxed knowing she is in good safe hands, especially given the current situation.
You are always greeted with a happy face, and should you have any
questions; the team are always happy to answer.
The food as always; is of a very high standard, and the home is always clean.
We would always recommend Quarry Mount.

My father has been a resident at Quarry Mount for 15 months and I have been very happy with him living there. The staff are all very friendly, caring, compassionate and very welcoming. The management team are excellent and I cannot speak highly enough of them, they are always helpful and kind and this
emanates down through the staff team. I would have no hesitation recommending Quarry Mount for a loved one, it's as close to a home environment that any care facility can offer. The staff are consistent which is great, and therefore this builds up trust for my father and family members. Quarry Mount is clean and tidy and residents are treated with dignity. I visit regularly and have only witnessed positive care, with staff interacting with residents and also a sense of humour to lighten the day for the. Thank you for looking after my lovely Dad, it means the world to me knowing I don't have to worry about him.
Reply from Sue Harris, Proprietor at Quarry Mount Residential Care HomeThank you very much for your review! The team at Quarry Mount will be delighted to hear that you have such positive experiences when visiting, including also being so happy with the care that your Dad receives, putting your mind at rest.

As my wife has been placed fairly recently. This review is a new experience for me but I will do my best. I have to say the care staff are so very kind and are caring for my wife under some challenging episodes, they all are so patient with her so I have been very impressed so far. I find the care home
is so homely and warm. I am afraid I can't think of anything else to say. Very well recommended by me and my family.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
As a family, we cannot thank Quarry Mount management and staff enough for the love and care they gave our mum during her time there, as not just a resident but also how they made her feel part of the family.
Whilst an extremely difficult decision for my sister and I and our families to make, that
mum needed 24-hour care, it soon became very apparent that we had made the right choice as we watched mum's anxiety and feeling frightened all the time gradually ease.
Quarry Mount staff treated mum with so much love, care and respect we could not have asked for more. During her last month, Quarry Mount became our home as well as mums and we cannot express how accommodating, kind and caring they were with us all. They looked after her needs with dignity and love all the time. At no point have we ever had a concern or worry, we cannot speak highly enough of Quarry Mount. Our thanks and love go to all the staff, management, carers, cleaning, catering and entertainment.
Reply from Sue Harris, Proprietor at Quarry Mount Residential Care HomeWe are so pleased that even though as for many, it was a very difficult decision for you to make about your mum coming into care, that we were able to ease your worries and provide for mum, the loving and caring environment for her to live in and give peace of mind for yourselves.

Mum first went in for a weekends respite and we were relieved that when the time came for fulltime care, just a few weeks later Quarry Mount could accommodate her.
The staff are so understanding and show great care and compassion, not just for Mum but for all of us (Dad included).

A home from home for my mother. Friendly staff; kind, considerate and hardworking. A chaplain visits which is essential to my mother's culture and upbringing - a great comfort to her and myself. Confident that she was respected, looked after and a great sense of fun running throughout the home.

Review from Bee B (Daughter of Resident) published on 31 January 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Father was looked after in one of the bungalows at Quarry Mount for 4 1/2 years. I cannot imagine any other nursing home being more flexible and understanding of his needs as he had no signs of dementia and wanted to be as independent as possible. The home accommodated his wishes as best they could
and made sure we were in agreement with his freedom to visit his local club or go out with friends. Not all care homes would be so tolerant.


Gradually he became less mobile and was looked after superbly with kindness and understanding throughout his various periods of ill health. He passed away in November 2016.

Reply from Sue Harris, Director at Quarry Mount Residential Care HomeThank you very much for your kind review. It was a privilege for us to take care of your father in one of our Assisted Living Bungalows, which enabled him to receive the care and comforts he required, whilst also allowing him his independence.

It was really lovely to know that our Mam/Granma & Mam- in-law had a wonderful Christmas. Since becoming a resident, we can see that Mam-in-law is feeling very much at home and is enjoying the trips and activities. The care staff are friendly and very helpful to us, and the smile on Mam-in-law's face
when they speak to her is wonderful and very reassuring to us. Thank you.

An excellent facility, wonderful management and the staff are caring, kind and very personal to residents and family. The best care home I have ever visited across the Country. The quality of my Father's life was improved and remains sustained despite increased age and inevitable frailty. I cannot speak
highly enough of all of the staff members.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.590)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.590) 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 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 11 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 4.815 for Quarry Mount Residential Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (108 Excellents x 5) + (20 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 130 Ratings = 4.815
  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 4.775 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Quarry Mount Residential Care Home is based on 11 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 + 0.025 = 3.775
    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 11 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.
