Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum has been in Spratslade for 8-months. The difference in her is amazing. She looks a totally different woman from when she first went in there. She looks so much more healthy and happy. She says the staff can't do enough for her, and she loves the company and entertainment they provide. She says
her bedroom is really nice, and she wants for nothing. I would definitely recommend Spratslade house to anyone.

Our Mum moved into Spratslade in January 2021, and because of the Covid restrictions, we were unable to look around inside. We got a good feeling about everything and took the decision to accept the place for Mum. We could not have chosen a better place for her. The staff are extremely friendly, helpful
and professional. Mum loves the food and says that there is not one member of staff that she doesn't like or isn't good at their job. When Mum isn't well, the staff are quick to get medical help and always keep us informed.

Mum has settled really quickly, which has helped to reassure us. Staff are friendly and kind. Communication is good and staff know each person and their family on an individual basis. They only addition I would ask for is an additional breakout or small meeting room for families.

A lovely care home. I looked at many and was despairing of finding one that I felt comfortable leaving Mum in. From the very first visit, I felt relieved and happy that Mum would be in safe and caring hands. All the staff are both professional and caring at all times. and have gone the extra mile to

My father has been here just over 12 months and received the best care ever. The food is great and there are lots of activities for people to do. The thing that makes this place so great though is the staff. They are all lovely, caring and understanding, they treat my dad as if he was a member of their
own family. I cannot recommend Spratslade enough.

My mother has been looked after for the last 6 months here and suffers from dementia. Now that the staff have got to know her and her ways she is very comfortable. She was settled within 2 weeks and I was very surprised and it was a great relief for us. All the staff are attentive and I feel very happy
that this is the place we have chosen for my mother.

Since my wife arrived here she has been very well looked after. The standard of care has been excellent and the staff have been outstanding in their care for her and their kindness to us as a family.
The room is of a high standard and is light and comfortable. My wife has been well fed with a wide
range of menu's and drinks have been available to us all which is very much appreciated. The medical care and attention is of a high standard which has very much reassured us as a family of my wife's well-being.
The family would highly recommend Spratslade as an excellent care provider.

Since the day she arrived, my sister has been treated with respect, compassion and dignity. Her care and safety is wonderful and all the staff are aware of her physical and mental requirements. We, her family are kept fully informed of any changes in her condition. I am always welcomed in a friendly
way with no restrictions on visiting (within normal times) but I am always aware that all the staff are experienced and professional. It has been a pleasure to give this information.

Since moving to Spratslade my mum has been a lot happier. She was in another care home before moving to Spratslade after a stay in hospital the other home said they didn't want mum back as her needs are quite difficult to manage. I'm happy to say I have no such complaints at Spratslade and mum has got
her appetite back.

My mother came into the home 4 weeks ago after a few weeks in the hospital. Myself and my family are extremely impressed by the home and the care my mother has received since she came here. I would definitely recommend this home to anyone. The staff include me in all decisions about my mother's care
and well-being. Happy and settled.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I have always found the staff at the home very caring, treating the clients with respect and always very approachable. The home itself I have always found homely rather than clinical.
The room where my mum spends most of her time is more like sitting in her own living room.
The food is varied and
always looks appetizing and there is always plenty of it.
I am very happy with the way my mum is cared for at the home.

We have been involved with the above care home for the past 12 months, during which time my father has been a resident. The home itself is clean and adequate. The staff are brilliant, caring and treat everyone with respect. This care home is what it says - a home from home facility, unlike some homes
which appear to be clinical. I would certainly recommend this establishment and can't praise the management or staff enough.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.487)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.487) out of 10 for Spratslade is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 6 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 4.887 for Spratslade is calculated as follows: ( (64 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 71 Ratings = 4.887
  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 4.6 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Spratslade is based on 6 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 = 3.6
    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 30 registered maximum number of service users is 6, which has been reached with 6 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.
