Review from Michael C (Son of Resident) published on 26 March 2021 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Overall, my recent visit after the recent lockdown restrictions lifted went really well. Well organised, not a problem with lateral flow test. The visiting room was spacious and very clean. The staff, as always, very pleasant and helpful. The new management team very helpful and pleasant and kept me well informed during phone calls etc.

Review from E R (Respite Resident) published on 18 February 2021 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

I would have liked to have something to eat earlier in the morning as 10 am for breakfast is too late. Unfortunately, I was isolated so had no connection with the other guests. I found the staff very attentive, willing to do anything they were able. This would have been a very happy place to be had I had the chance.

Review from Doris C (Resident / Service User) published on 17 February 2021 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

I am independent, I wash in the morning, change, make the bed. I only need a carer to change it once a week, help to get a bath once a week. Hair is a mess, hasn't been cut or blow dried since March 2020. I understand hard times with the Covid virus. I isolated 3 times. Took it all in my stride.

Overall Experience

I feel very safe knowing nobody can come in plus that if I need help I just need to press my buzzer. No price is too big for peace of mind.

Review from Jess D (Granddaughter of Resident) published on 5 July 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Home Manager is lovely really approachable and warm they have gone above and beyond to support my grandmother.
The home is lovely a few areas look tired and in need of updating but the standard of care is fantastic. Care staff are all lovely.
The home has a lovely warm feel to it and is homely yes it doesn't look like a hotel for the elderly and it shouldn't as this is someone's home not a local bed and breakfast or holiday in.

Can't recommend enough.

Review from Anne B (Daughter of Resident) published on 3 April 2019 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Care manager very professional at Mum's assessment. The initial day of admission to home staff very friendly and welcoming, aware that staff are busy with residents and general duties. A short orientation of the home, mum's room etc. May need to consider doing an inventory of resident's property, cash, clothing etc, as items may be misplaced. Staff need to check pre-post stay (done by myself). In general, my Mum enjoyed her stay and I was happy about her care.

Reply from Angelea Hutchison, Home Manager at Crofton Court Residential Care Home

Hi, thank you for the lovely feedback. At Crofton Court, we do try to be extremely welcoming and to ensure it has a lovely homely feel for individuals living there or for people staying for a short period of time. It was an absolute pleasure supporting your grandparent during their time with us.

Review from David H (Son of Resident) published on 8 October 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Due to a total loss of mobility, our mother became a resident of Crofton Court in July 2008. She sadly passed away on the 13th of September 2018. During her time in the residential home, we have to comment that the care, compassion and kindness of all the staff was outstanding. The accommodation was very comfortable and very well kept, as were all areas of the building, the meals were to a high standard and varied, and the personal attention she was given was excellent. Whilst able to, she enjoyed the organised activities and seasonal fayre days held during the year. We wish to express our sincere appreciation to every member of staff, both past and present, for their efforts and we would highly recommend Crofton Court to anyone seeking residential care.

Overall Experience
Our dad was a resident in Crofton Court for 18 months. From our very first visit until dad sadly passed away on 1st September 2016, we as a family, could not fault the care and compassion that was shown not just to our dad but to our whole family by every single member of the staff team.

We cannot thank all who work there enough for the support given to dad and ourselves.
