My wife was looked after in Summerfield care home for the last 12 months of her life. She was well cared for by all the members of staff, I have to say that the staff looked after me too. I found it hard losing my beloved wife of 57 years, but the care from the staff has extended to me. I am lucky to
have found Summerfield and have been returning weekly for lunch and hugs since her passing. All the staff have become friends and I could never thank them enough.

My mother has only been at Summerfield for a short time but the care and understanding have been second to none.
Every member of staff I have met is lovely and caring and treats all residents as family. Mum loves the food which is made on-site and is all fresh and varied.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I chose Summerfield 20 months ago for my dad and have not regretted that decision. Summerfield has a warm, friendly, welcoming family atmosphere. All the staff, carers, domestic assistants, cooks etc are caring and have made the effort to get to know Dad. Despite well-publicised difficulties in this
sector, there is a relatively low turnover which speaks volumes.
Attention is constantly paid to updating facilities and decor, eg this year a new wet room to replace the old bathroom, new dining chairs and decor.
If there is a problem it is quickly rectified. Overall Dad is happy and settled, likes the staff and is well cared for.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I visited a number of care homes before visiting Summerfield and none of them matched up to the friendly welcome, the comfortable environment and the accommodating, experienced staff I found there. I knew instantly that Mother would be well cared for and would settle in well - Mother has been there
5 months now and I was right, the staff have got to know her well, she has a lovely room and thoroughly enjoys 'people watching' as she calls it. She even joins in some of the activities which is a great relief to us as she had lost all interest, I put this down to staff encouragement. One important thing for us is being kept informed of how mum has been throughout the day and the staff always have a tale to tell when we visit, be it mum refusing a shower (she really dislikes them) or a funny comment she may have made. It's the little things like that that put our minds at ease, that shows us that mum can be herself and she feels safe and looked after.
Reply from Lee Lee, Director at Summerfield Residential Home
Thank you for your lovely review, we are really pleased that we are all doing our jobs correctly when caring for your mum.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Dad lived at Summerfield residential home in Silsden for just under a year before his death in July 2024.
He settled into his new surroundings very quickly and became part of the Summerfield family. He felt secure and happy in his new home and the standard of care and companionship was absolutely superb.
Dad
suffered from severe dementia but was encouraged to join in with the various activities in the home and also enjoyed occasional trips to local amenities outside. The staff are all so helpful and most of them have been employed there for many years.
I would recommend Summerfield to any family who needs a caring home to look after a loved one.

Summerfield Care Home is a very friendly place with lots of staff milling around constantly. Mum first arrived in June 2024 and settled very well. If I have any issues or questions, I feel at ease to ask staff and they always try to sort things out. Mum is still quite mobile (compared to other residents)
and has been out on a couple of day trips, which she thoroughly enjoyed. The gardens and surrounding outdoor areas are beautiful and residents are able to sit comfortably in sun or shaded areas. There is also plenty of parking, making it less stressful to go and visit. I'm very happy with my choice of care for Mum.

My mother chose Summerfield from a number of care homes which we visited together. She settled extremely well (better than I would have expected). She likes her room because she can see lots of comings and goings and everyone waves to her. The staff take time to chat with her which she really appreciates.
She enjoys the food and socialising with others at meal times. She chooses not to get involved in activities which often look interesting to me!

I can't fault this care home, the staff are lovely, the standard of care is excellent, and the food is very good both in terms of quality and choice. All in all a well-run care home with very hands-on and approachable management.

A happy, welcoming place to visit. Friendly and very hard-working staff. Guests are so well cared for, clothes are always smart and clean. Lots of activities for them. A good atmosphere and the best is made of the accommodation - an extended old house.

My grandad has been a resident on respite for several weeks, and during that time, I can not fault the care he has received in any way. The staff have been fantastic with him, and his wife has been allowed to stay on occasion to be with him.
I would recommend this home without having to think twice
about it.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Reviewed several care homes before moved Mum, who has Dementia into Summerfield Residential Home.
The care and support all the staff have given her has been truly wonderful, her needs have been addressed promptly and she is very settled into her new home.
She is treated with dignity and respect from
the friendly staff and is kept engaged with the many activities offered such as dancing, singing and crafts which is lovely to see.
The environment is safe, very homely, clean and well equipped throughout. Meals and drinks are exceptional.
We visit weekly and are always welcomed and kept up to date with Mum’s progress
Very happy with our decision to move Mum into Summerfield and would recommend to anyone looking for an excellent care home for their loved one.

I researched and visited many homes before deciding on Summerfield in Silsden. I am so glad that my friend was able to have her last six months on earth here. The staff / managers listened to her needs (she was difficult). All the staff took time to understand her quirky ways and she settled in well.
Alzheimer's came on very quickly and she thought she was buying the place. Thank you all for taking care of her for me. I could sleep better at night knowing that she was safe.

I came to Summerfield Residential Home directly from the hospital for respite care. The moment I arrived, I was very welcome, and I've been here just short of a month. I still feel the same. The room is more than adequate and clean. The food is very good with a varied diet.
The staff have all been
caring and happy to help in any way they could.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Summerfield Residential Home to anyone in the future.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have visited the home many times over the past couple of years. On each occasion, I was greeted with lovely, happy faces from all staff, all of which, automatically go above and beyond to care for the residents.
The home has currently gone under refurbishment and has a lovely new garden area for
residents to enjoy, as well as other amenities.
There is a good variety of meals to choose from and a display board outlining the week's activities which is fantastic for residents such as my relative who has dementia, as the eye-catching display is easy to spot.
The managers are fantastic and ensure that the home gives that home-from-home feeling for the families, and really do go that extra mile, always with ease, and you can see the genuine care they have.
Overall, I am glad to have had the pleasure to be able to have my relative in Summerfield Residential Home; it can be difficult when a family member has to enter a home, and they really made the transition easier.

A first-rate care home. Felt homely from day one, and the staff treated the resident with respect and dignity. Communication was good, and they couldn’t have done more for my husband, myself or our dog, who was allowed to visit.
I have been in several care homes with work or as a visitor, and this
was one of the best.
The food was superb, hot, appetising and really well prepared.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father suffers from dementia, has very limited mobility and is also registered as blind, so it is extremely challenging finding activities that he can effectively engage with and enjoy, but the staff at Summerfield have gone out of their way to include him in group activities and also on a one-to-one
basis so that he is kept stimulated and entertained. He even managed to take part in pumpkin carving for Halloween this year, which was just amazing. One of his favourite things to do is sing, and all the staff make the effort to sing along with him, whether it be in his room or when he's in one of the communal areas. He's extremely happy at Summerfield, and I cannot think of a better place for my father to be.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.803)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.803) out of 10 for Summerfield Residential Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 33 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 33 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 4.803 for Summerfield Residential Home is calculated as follows: ( (318 Excellents x 5) + (69 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 391 Ratings = 4.803
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Summerfield Residential Home is based on 33 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 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    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 32 registered maximum number of service users is 6.4, which has been reached with 33 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.
