Thank you to all the staff at Scalford Court for taking such good care of my grandmother. It is comforting to know she is well looked after and happy staying there. When I speak to her she tells me about all the staff and the lovely activities they get up to during the week. She has been able to keep
a lot of her independence and the staff will go out of their way to help meet her needs. The catering is also particularly good; the food is nutritious and fresh which is reassuring for us as we were concerned about her diet before she came into the home. The home has been recently decorated, it has been lovely to see fresh colourful walls and beautiful artwork on the walls. It gives a warm, welcoming feel that I have not seen in many other homes. They have beautiful outdoor grounds which have been lovely especially in the last few weeks with the warmer weather. The rooms are well kept, clean and newly decorated. Thank you to everyone for looking after her so well! Would highly recommend!

I can't thank the staff at Scalford Court enough for the outstanding care they gave my late mum during her time with them. She had severe dementia, and the compassion, patience, and dignity they showed her every single day brought great comfort to our family. The team went above and beyond not just
in meeting her needs, but in making her feel safe, loved, and respected. Knowing she was in such kind and capable hands gave us peace of mind through an incredibly difficult time. We will always be deeply grateful.

I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional care my gran receives at Scalford Court Care Home. From our first visit, it was clear that it is not just a facility, but a welcoming community filled with warmth and professionalism.The staff are outstanding, going above and beyond to ensure every
resident feels valued. My gran has formed wonderful relationships with her carers, who treat her with respect and compassion. Their attentiveness is reassuring, and I've seen her flourish since moving here.The environment, under new ownership, has improved greatly. It's beautifully maintained and cozy. There are many activities for residents, from arts and crafts to exercise classes.
The meals are delicious and cater to dietary needs, ensuring everyone enjoys nutritious food. Overall, Scalford Court has exceeded our expectations. Knowing my gran is in such capable hands brings us peace of mind. I wholeheartedly recommend Scalford Court to anyone seeking a loving environment for loved ones

My dad has been here a year now, the care he receives is excellent. He is treated with care and compassion, the staff are kind and friendly to dad and myself. They do lots of activities with the residents although dad chooses not to participate. My mother on law was in here too and the care she received
was also excellent right to the end.

Dad went to live at Scalford Court Care Home after many years of living alone and looking after himself was understandably apprehensive at first. After a short time he began to love living there.
The staff went out of their way to make Dad feel at home. They were attentive and caring, treating him
with dignity and respect right up until the end. They became his friends, as was shown during the period of his passing when so many of the staff made the time to come and say their goodbyes to him; many of whom shed tears and expressed their love for him, saying how much they were going to miss him.
This was such a comfort to us during this awful time and made us realise just how much they thought of him.
Dad was always treated with respect, dignity and was supported during his stay
It's a very difficult time for families when choosing a care home for their loved ones. But we would wholeheartedly recommend Scalford Court Care Home.

Reply from Lisa Thwaites, Manager at Scalford Court Care Home

Thank you so much for leaving us such a lovely review at, what must be, such a difficult time for you and your family. It was an honour to be able to care for your Dad and we will all miss him greatly here at Scalford Court. Please do pop in and see us when you feel up to it, we would love to see you all soon.

When myself and my sister first started the process of looking for a care home for our grandma, we didn't need to do much searching. We knew Scalford Court was the best, and she would feel happy and comfortable there. We weren't wrong. When Grandma first entered the building, and was greeted by the
lovely staff and a wonderful welcoming spread, she said "this is the place for me!"
The staff have been wonderful, they are all beautiful caring individuals, and gave my grandma the best care. She suffered from dementia, and all her needs were catered for, and all members of staff made our grandma feel loved. I cannot express enough, how at home you feel at Scalford Court. The cleanliness is top-tier level, along with the professional care given. Thank you all, for looking after our grandma so well.

All the management and staff at Scalford Court are so very friendly, understanding and professional. They always have their residents best interest at heart, and nothing is too much trouble. They understand the feelings and emotions of the family as well as their residents. I could not ask for a more

All the staff are lovely to me and I believe my dad says some are happier/better than others (some don't want to be there). Everywhere is always clean apart from on some occasions dads commode hasn't been cleaned out and subsequently, his room has smelt.
They
lose his underwear and some clothes too, but names haven't been put in. Dads room is very small!

Since my wife became a resident (Sept 2017) I have gradually come to understand and appreciate how a care home operates within what is achievable and practical. Getting the balance right is not easy a few manage to get even close to ideal.
In my personal opinion, Scalford Court Care Home has excelled
in getting it right in each of the critical areas namely very good and approachable management, compassionate care, excellent healthy food and outstanding mixes of organised activities for the residents.
The home is staffed by lovely caring folk who interface with all the residents creating such a wonderful atmosphere of humour and intelligent help where needed. They have to sometimes cope with both physical and mental stress but from my experience are always able to generate laughter in any suitable situation.
The kitchen procedures a lovely mix of very tasty food to appeal to most appetites but the staff are hidden away in the kitchen but nevertheless are critical in the care process.
I personally believe that the activities arranged at Scalford Court are second to none and again have major positive effects on both staff and residents. The two ladies who organise these features obviously put in a lot of hard work under sometimes challenging conditions but always with wonderful humour.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.485)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.485) out of 10 for Scalford Court Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 9 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.822 for Scalford Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (88 Excellents x 5) + (19 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 107 Ratings = 4.822

  • b) 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 4.663 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Scalford Court Care Home is based on 9 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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 = 3.9

    • ii) 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 59 registered maximum number of service users is 11.8. 9 Positive Reviews ÷ 11.8 = 0.763

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
