Admission Criteria

  • Our admission policy ensures that every prospective resident receives a thorough and personalised pre-admission assessment to determine whether we can meet their needs safely and competently. We involve the individual, their family, and any relevant professionals in this process, aiming to provide clear, accessible information so they can make an informed choice about moving into the care home. Key steps in our process: Initial Enquiry: We log all enquiries, provide an information pack, and invite the prospective resident to visit the home. Pre-Admission Assessment: We assess physical, psychological, and social needs, ensuring any necessary equipment or specialist care can be arranged before admission. Capacity and Consent: We follow the Mental Capacity Act, ensuring the individual consents to the process or that decisions are made in their best interests if needed. Financial and Legal Clarity: Funding arrangements (private, social care, or NHS-funded) are confirmed upfront, and legal agreements are put in place before admission. On Admission: The resident is welcomed, introduced to staff, and supported to settle in. Key risk assessments (such as falls and evacuation plans) are completed within 12 hours, and personalised care plans are finalised within the first week. Ongoing Review: A formal review is held within 28 days to ensure the placement is suitable and to gather feedback on the resident’s experience. Our approach is person-centred, aiming to make the transition into the home as smooth, informed, and supportive as possible. We also conduct regular audits to maintain high standards and ensure all legal and regulatory requirements are met.

Visiting

  • The team value the importance of visitors in the lives of residents and fully support their right to maintain contact with family, friends, and loved ones. The visitors policy ensures that visits are welcomed, safe, and respectful of each resident’s personal wishes.


    Key points of the policy:


    Open Visiting: Visitors are welcome at any time, unless a resident personally requests limited visits or there is an outbreak of infection, in which case the home will follow health and safety guidance.


    Resident Choice: Each resident can decide who they want to see, and this choice will be recorded in their care plan. If a resident lacks the capacity to make this decision, the Mental Capacity Act will guide the process to ensure visits still support their best interests.


    Visitor Registration: All visitors must sign in and out at reception and follow any health and safety procedures in place.


    Privacy and Respect: Residents have the right to refuse visitors, and this will always be respected. Visitors will not be allowed into other residents’ rooms without express permission.


    Food and Personal Items: Any food or personal items brought in for a resident must be declared to staff to ensure safety and dietary needs are considered.


    Infection Control: Visitors who feel unwell, especially with symptoms of transmissible infections (such as flu, COVID-19, or norovirus), are asked to postpone their visit until they are well.


    Conflict and Safeguarding: If a visitor’s behaviour poses a risk to residents, staff, or the home environment, management will intervene. In serious cases, visits may be restricted or conditions imposed, with advice from the Safeguarding Team if necessary.


    Outbreak Management: In the event of a public health incident, the home will follow local and national guidance, offering alternatives like video calls or window visits if needed.


    Feedback and Complaints: Visitors are encouraged to provide feedback and raise any concerns, which will be handled through the Complaints, Suggestions and Compliments Policy.


    Our goal is to make every visit a positive, safe, and supportive experience for all.

Mom was moved here from hospital, this was a new experience for her and us, we met with the manager before mom's arrival and saw the home, we were relatively pleased with what we saw and hopeful for mom's care, while the home was clean and comfortable the level of care from staff wasn't what we expected.
Most
of the time the home had bank staff who did the bare minimum for their work obligations and couldn't answer any queries we had, mom wasn't encouraged to eat/drink it was just put in front of her but due to confusion and limitations on her sight and mobility this was difficult for mom to do.
Some members of staff did engage with mom and us but most of the time, especially on a weekend or evening the staff would be on there mobile phones or sat in the nurses station talking to each other.
Mom had several falls over the short time she was here an didn't thrive at all, there needs to be significant changes in my opinion at primrose hill for existing and future residents care here

I cannot fault the care my mom receives at Primrose Hill from management, carers, domestics, activity team , kitchen staff and anyone else I have missed. My mom unfortunately can be very hard work and a lot of the time needs close monitoring. I am kept informed with any ongoing issues and am listened
to with issues I have. When settled and having an easier time mom likes to join in with the activities and when not know she makes the carers smile in her own ways.
Her room is lovely and always clean as is her clothing and bedding.
Thankyou to all the staff for your continued support with moms care.

Mom was placed at primrose hill as an emergency for 7 weeks. She struggled for the first week, but with the care and patience of the staff she settled down and enjoyed her time there, having little jokes with the staff. She enjoyed her time on Red Rose Lane, the food was excellent, the carers, nurses,
laundry, receptionists were excellent and lovely. A very friendly place, made to feel at home. Nothing was too much trouble.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mom was at Primrose for 3 and a half years. She had been in 4 homes before coming to Primrose and this was by far the best. My mom was cared for impeccably and the staff treated her like family. Unfortunately, my mom passed away in November and I can not praise the staff enough, from nurses to staff
to domestics to the activities team who came in and played music to her while the family took a moment away. The end-of-life care was out of this world and I will never be able to thank them enough. The management team were there throughout the entire time and never left our side. The last few days of Mom's life were the best possible days and she most definitely had the most comfortable and peaceful death possible.

My dad has been a resident since June 2022 and I couldn't feel more blessed that he is in the best care home to meet his needs. The carers are the most amazing people and show so much care and compassion towards my dad. They always make me and my mum feel very welcome, nothing is too much trouble and
they treat me and my mum with the same respect they give my dad. I am very grateful to each and every carer and nurse who provide my dad with a caring environment surrounded by special people who look after him whilst we can't be there with him. It is heartbreaking for my dad not to live in his own home anymore but Primrose has become a perfect home for him to settle into and be surrounded by people who are truly worth their weight in gold. Thank you for wrapping him up in your care and devotion. Words will never be enough.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I found the whole experience of looking for a suitable care home for my relative very daunting, but once I met the manager and her team my mind was put at ease straight away. The manager is very informative and clearly has a passion for her clients and staff. The dementia unit is fabulous. My relative
takes part in so many activities and is stimulated daily. The home arranges fun days for the residents and families to take part in regularly. The staff are very compassionate and caring and nothing is too much trouble for them. After viewing many awful homes, we are so glad to have found this one as we are all now finally settled as a family.

My wife has been here for the past 18 months on Red Rose, and what I can say is that the staff go over and above in what they do as carers, they are polite and very caring to my wife and to the other residents (as I visit my wife nearly every single day) I see how hard they all work on a regular basis.
The facilities are clean and tidy and well kept by all the domestics, my wife's needs are met and she is well looked after.
When I have had any issues they have been addressed quickly and efficiently by staff or by management. I cannot praise the manager enough for how hard she works in keeping this care home. The staff are very considerate in asking how I am and if I need anything, there is nothing ever too much trouble for them including the manager. We are fortunate to have a care home like this.

Review from A L (Sister of Resident) published on 16 January 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 2.0 out of 5
Staff including nurses were not skilled in how to care for a resident with grade 4 pressure sores. My brother was left without a call bell for several months and charged £300 when he broke one accidentally. Staff told him they hated him! They still work there as carers. Staff would leave him calling
out for help.
Manager always in a meeting when called to speak to her. Nurse repositioned with bed sheet on her own. This care home has too many concerns that need addressing. He was refused back into the home after having Sepsis! A life-threatening illness. Poor on many levels.
Reply from Beckie Greaves, Registered Manager at Primrose Hill Nursing Home

We are sorry for your distress, and we assure you that we take these matters very seriously. Here are our responses to each of your points:

Staff Training: Our staff, including nurses, are well-trained to care for residents with various health conditions, including grade 4 pressure sores. We follow the latest guidelines and best practices in wound care management. We collaborate with other agencies, and we did so on this occasion. There were care plans in place and they were regularly updated due to the complexity of the care required. It is also important to recognise that the sores were not acquired from the home, but from the hospital and they had been recurrent for several years.

Call Bell: The call bell was always in place. We had a conversation with your brother, who has full capacity, and he understood that he would be liable for the cost of replacing the call bells after breaking several of them. He agreed to this willingly and apologised.

Staff Conduct: We maintain a strict code of conduct for our staff, which includes treating all residents with respect and dignity. Any behaviour contrary to this is unacceptable. This was a matter that was not reported to the home. Your brother had many positive relationships with the staff and he considered many of them as his friends. He also had full capacity to raise any concerns himself.

Manager Availability: My role involves various responsibilities, including meetings. However, we understand the importance of being available for residents and their families. I will however take this opportunity to point out that your brother explicitly requested that you have no involvement in his care or access to any information about him.

Repositioning Residents: Our staff are trained to use safe and appropriate techniques when repositioning residents. It would have been impossible for this to be done without the help of two or more staff due to the complex needs and body mass index (BMI) of your brother. His care plans were extensive and detailed this requirement. Since you had no involvement in his care, I am unsure how you could make such claims.

We appreciate your feedback as it helps us improve our services. We are committed to providing the highest level of care.

Review from A D (Respite Resident) published on 4 October 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have been here just over 2 months following 3 operations on my brain tumour. Previously I've spent time in the hospital quite a lot. I'm still only 38 but have full capacity. At my last care home, I was there for 12 months. Before this, I had home care in my own ground-floor apartment. As my condition
deteriorated (hence needing 2 more operations and 6 weeks of radiotherapy). It was clear and obvious I needed more support. I have so far found here the most suitable place for me. Because of previous bad experiences in care homes, I've tried to be very critical of mistakes and honestly, I struggle to find many. 4.8/5 from me as a 24/7 resident.

Absolutely blown away by both the loving care and professionalism shown by the staff. I turned up, unannounced to find my grandmother's room immaculate, smelling fresh and so did she. she looked wonderful. They dealt so kindly with two gentlemen residents, clearly with dementia who were wandering. The
staff here are outstanding, caring, kind, honest and thoughtful. All working hard and with a smile. They are all angels.

My mother spent the last 18 months of her life at Primrose Hill and was given the greatest care and support from the team on the Forget-Me-Not unit. They not only cared exceptionally well for her but also became like family members to her, which is testimony to the management of the unit and to everyone
who works there. The kindness and compassion that I saw demonstrated to all residents was outstanding.

The Unit Manager is so proactive, kind and compassionate and very giving with her time. She always makes the time, very often outside of her working hours, to visit and spend some precious time with my grandmother. When she sees her she radiates loving-kindness that I feel has been crucial to my grandmother’s
survival. 18 months ago my grandmother was lying on her deathbed with pneumonia in hospital, the Doctor was ready to withdraw treatment and prepare us for end of life. After surviving pneumonia and being sent to Primrose Hill, all the staff including the unit manager, have just engaged and engulfed my grandmother with loving kindness that her health is moving from strength to strength. Especially over lockdown after lockdown and us not being able to visit, all the staff on Penny Lane are gems and have always gone the extra mile in seeing that my grandmother is living (and not dying) a happy soulful life!

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.561)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.561) out of 10 for Primrose Hill Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 14 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 4.561 for Primrose Hill Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (147 Excellents x 5) + (19 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) + (14 Poors x 2) + (2 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 189 Ratings = 4.561
  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 Primrose Hill Nursing Home is based on 14 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 50 registered maximum number of service users is 10, which has been reached with 14 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.
