From the moment Mum arrived, she was made so welcome, every member of staff went out of their way to greet her and help her settle in. Mum came from independent living in London, so this was a major upheaval in her life but within two weeks, she has told us how happy she is and she doesn't want to leave.
Whenever Mum needs assistance, there is someone there to help in next to no time.
We could not be happier.

Having made the tough decision to move my 93-year-old mother from London to Bollington, we couldn’t have been more impressed by the welcome we received from the staff on our arrival following a very long train journey.
She obviously was very anxious and upset at leaving her home and the area she had
lived in all her life.
Since arriving, we cannot give anything other than praise for this care home.
The staff all treat her with such professionalism, empathy, kindness and love. Despite memory problems and deafness, staff go way beyond our expectations in ensuring she understands and hears what is said.
She is enjoying her meals and interacting with other residents in the dining room.
The activities are varied and accessible to everyone.
We initially planned on a month's stay to see if she settled, yet after two weeks she has voiced how happy she is and made the decision to make this her permanent home.
Thank you Ingersley Cout Care Home for making a difficult decision into such a positive one.

My father is in the late stages of Alzheimer's/dementia, I have cared for my dad for the past couple of years but sadly it reached the point where Dad needed care/company 24 hours which I cannot offer. Dad had always been reluctant to go into a care home but after visiting various homes he was ‘won
over’ by the lovely welcome from the staff at Ingersley Court Care Home. The manager kindly offered my dad two weeks respite to see how he feels, Dad accepted the offer and when I took Dad there with his things for a couple of weeks, we were made to feel very welcome and that immediately relaxed not only Dad about staying but myself for feeling comfortable leaving Dad with ‘strangers to us’. I visited Dad a few times during his stay and he seemed so much calmer than I had seen him for a long time, he settled in straight away. All the staff are approachable and caring to both Dad and our family, Dad has decided he would love to stay there now which has been a huge decision for him but he is now much happier.

My cousin was a resident in Ingersley Court Care Home for eighteen months until her death there on the 20th of March. I visited Ingersley many times to see her during that period. All the members of staff made me very welcome. They showed genuine concern for my cousin and treated her with the utmost
respect and dignity. Much care, kindness and love were given to her which she and I much appreciated. The management team kept me regularly informed in between my visits. Any questions I had were always answered in an honest, professional and courteous way. U have great admiration for everyone who works at Ingersley.

Feedback is always available during office hours. Despite Covid restrictions activities and even trips out are undertaken. All in all a very satisfactory

My wife has settled in very well but that has been helped enormously by the fantastic staff and many other residents. All staff are kind and considerate and are very understanding and accommodating of her disabilities. The facilities at Ingersley are excellent. The bedroom is light and bright and has
everything she needs including a small kitchen which is ideal when friends and family visit. My wife enjoys her food and likes the menu choices presented to her. From my own observations, kitchen staff work very hard to provide wholesome tasty food. We are delighted with Ingersley Court and very glad we made that choice. She seems very content and no longer asks when she is coming home which suggests she is happy in her new surroundings. Leadership is important in these difficult times and it is apparent that Ingersley is blessed in that regard. It was a very difficult decision for us to place my wife in a care home as she is still relatively young but we are fully supported as a family.

Excellent team who genuinely demonstrate great care and support for their residents. Mum feels listened to. She is happy and relaxed and doing really well. I am fully informed of all aspects of her care. Communication with the team is excellent and all queries have been met with helpful responses.
The
manager demonstrates clear and effective leadership and a positive culture with low staff turnover. There is clear evidence of safe processes in place and staff demonstrate a good understanding of mum's needs.
Mum trusts the staff and her confidence has grown so that she is now able to spend time in the company of the other residents safe in the knowledge that, if she needs to pay an urgent visit, staff are on hand to make sure she is not left embarrassed. This makes a massive difference to her.
Having experienced a different home, I am so glad we have found a place for Mum at Ingersley Court. It is a care home where "care" really matters. It isn't flashy - just excellent.

Our mother became a resident of Ingersley Court on 28 February 2019, and at that point in time, was ninety-nine years of age. From that very first day, the whole team has not only provided continual professional care but has done so with compassion, tenderness and love. At all times, they have shown
our mother total respect and ensured that her dignity is fully maintained. Through the actions of the team and the ethos under which it operates, Ingersley Court has become a true and perfect home for our mother. Collectively they are a 'team of angels who have become an integral part of our life and are now looked upon as our extended family. Knowing that our mother is safe and being so affectionately cared for has given enormous peace of mind to the whole of our family.

Ingersley Court has welcomed my mom for several respite stays. We find it a clean and homely environment along with caring staff. The rooms are of a nice and comfortable standard. I have no qualms about letting my mom stay at Ingersley. Its well run and nothing is too much trouble - especially having
to accommodate my mom's vegetarian diet! A huge thank you to the staff for making a difficult decision much easier.

Ingersley Court offers a comfortable environment for those needing residential care.
The team at Ingersley Court has the balance just right - offering first-class care whilst promoting independence wherever possible amongst its residents. Residents are treated with respect, and the team care for them
in a way that is reassuring for both residents and their respective families alike. The team often go above and beyond to ensure that residents have what they need to enable them to live and enjoy their lives in a care home setting.

My overall impression of the home is good with certain areas which could be improved quite easily with an increase in spend and training Main meals mostly ok - presentation and portion size on occasion a bit hit and miss. Homemade diabetic puddings poor and lack taste. Very poor outdoor space/facilities.
Care staff appear to work exceptionally hard, but my impression is there isn't enough of them, and they always appear to be against the clock. A better understanding of clients individual needs/requirements. Increased room cleaning/chacking, particularly for those room-bound and having toilet difficulties. Better communication with regards to client requests and feedback with relatives. As a service provider, I feel there is a lack of customer focus via certain individuals, but not all.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.731)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.731) out of 10 for Ingersley Court is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 19 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 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 4.731 for Ingersley Court is calculated as follows: ( (170 Excellents x 5) + (46 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 223 Ratings = 4.731

  • 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Ingersley Court is based on 19 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 + 0.1 = 4

    • 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 46 registered maximum number of service users is 9.2, which has been reached with 19 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • 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.
