Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have new staff and new manager since February. But we can see all the new ideas and care plan coming together. The home is friendly and a caring feel.

Review from Lorna C (Mother of Resident) published on 5 August 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
I am deeply disappointed with the standard of care at Ellerslie Court. Basic needs are frequently neglected. Residents often wait excessively long for assistance after ringing the bell, sometimes resulting in accidents. It's heartbreaking to see individuals left wet and uncomfortable after showering
due to lack of timely support.
Communication is poor-residents are not listened to, and their concerns are routinely dismissed. The food quality is substandard and lacks variety or nutritional value. The lift is constantly out of order, leaving residents confined to their rooms for extended periods, which is both isolating and unacceptable.
This environment does not reflect the dignity and respect that vulnerable individuals deserve. I sincerely hope improvements are made urgently.

Current Review Score: 6.3 (6.315)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 6.3 (6.315) out of 10 for Ellerslie Court is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 3.0 out of 5 from 2 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.4 out of 5 from 1 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 2.958 for Ellerslie Court is calculated as follows: ( (10 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) + (1 Poors x 2) + (11 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 24 Ratings = 2.958
  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 3.357 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Ellerslie Court is based on 1 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 = 3
    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 14 registered maximum number of service users is 2.8. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 2.8 = 0.357
  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.
