Overall Experience
Normanton is the second retirement home to provide care for my mother.
Of course, it is much more than that. My mother is not only safe and well-cared for, she has become part of the family - an atmosphere and philosophy provided by Normanton Retirement Home. Effectively, the staff at Normanton are also providing care and support to me and I am extremely grateful.
The level of individual attention and support is simply not found elsewhere.

The level of individual attention and support is simply not found elsewhere.
At a time when the state does not fund care for the elderly with savings, national chain companies seek to make money by providing basic services. If the person you care for has the opportunity to stay at Normanton Retirement Home, I suggest you jump at it.

Inspection ratings
We rate most services according to how safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led they are, using four levels:
- Outstanding - The service is performing exceptionally well.
- Good - The service is performing well and meeting our expectations.
- Requires Improvement - The service isn't performing as well as it should and we have told the service how it must improve.
- Inadequate - The service is performing badly and we've taken action against the person or organisation that runs it.
- Not rated - we have not yet rated this area of the service, this is normally because the assessments we have carried out have been focused on other key questions.
