Anchor’s Simon Marks Court in Wortley is a home supporting older people to live a comfortable lifestyle and offers dementia care. The home continues to welcome new residents for permanent and respite care.

It is located in a quiet cul-de-sac and has the benefit of substantial private gardens, which can be enjoyed by customers and their families. The home also enjoys good links with the community.

The care staff delivers a range of residential care services, including convalescence care, respite care, trial stays and long term care for those who can no longer look after themselves.

The care team organises stimulating activities that match individual and group interests, both in the care home as well as in the local community. Each resident’s individual needs are regularly assessed to ensure their care plans meet their lifestyle requirements.

As one of England's largest not-for-profit providers of housing and care for those over 55 years of age, Anchor continually reinvests the money it makes into its retirement properties and care homes, to continually raise standards to provide a high-quality service to surpass customer’s expectations.

To be honest I was not looking forward to visiting my sister in the nursing home. However, I was pleasantly surprised. The staff were very welcoming, her room was lovely and bright and was like home from home.
I saw a big improvement in my sister and she looked happy and relaxed.
After making the
long journey from Blackpool, we are always offered refreshments by staff, who are always on hand to help and have a chat. We now have peace of mind knowing my sister is safe when we are so far away.

Mum is happy here. Few niggles which were sorted out immediately. Staff do a good job in hard circumstances, but there seems to be a large turnover of staff and lots of agency staff.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.692)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.692) out of 10 for Simon Marks 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 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 10 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 4.692 for Simon Marks Court is calculated as follows: ( (97 Excellents x 5) + (27 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 130 Ratings = 4.692

  • 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 Simon Marks Court is based on 10 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 40 registered maximum number of service users is 8, which has been reached with 10 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.
