I must say how lucky I have been to have been sent from the hospital to such a comfortable and well-run home. The staff have all been magnificent. Maybe night agency staff could be looked at. Food varied and of good quality. Rooms clean and comfortable.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum came to Rosedale after a fall. She had been struggling at home on her own for a few years. We could see the difference in her after just a week at Rosedale Court. The physio got her back on her feet. It was a slow transition for her to remember that she is going to stay at Rosedale. Mum often
says in a surprised voice 'Can I stay here?' After a lot of reassuring Mum now knows this is her home.
The staff have all been fantastic. Since moving to Rosedale Mum has come to life. She's got new friends and they have regular outings. Mum has done more in the last six months than in the last six years.
To everyone at Rosedale, thank you.

I have been visiting my mum here since the home opened, almost 13 years ago. In all that time, I have never had any issues and the care and attention given to mum are exemplary. When I see the girls here, I feel so reassured as they don't just look after mum, they genuinely care and have become a part
of my extended family.

Review from Maria J (Daughter-in-law of Resident) published on 27 February 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My husband and my health were going down fast, I had a heart attack, a stent put in and looking after his ageing mother for 16 years. She broke her hip then after getting home had a stomach bleed. Husband had a 25cm hernia operation to get through.
We were both in a physical, mental and emotional turmoil.
I felt as if I was not going to live much longer, 6 months to a year? As was arranged by Social Services to help us, mother-in-law was sent to Rosedale Court as she had not stood for months. I can honestly say that as we could see how happy mum was and how wonderful the staff were at Rosedale, I now feel as if I could have years ahead of my life instead of only months. My breathing has improved, my heart settled more. A big thank you to all at Rosedale Court. I feel they have truly saved my life. My husband is now healing well also. Rosedale is a tremendous help to so many people. Thank you very much.

My dad has been in Rosedale Court for nearly 4 years. He is cared for very well. His room is always clean and tidy. He has well-balanced meals which he enjoys very much. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff, very polite and helpful. I would recommend Rosedale Court to family and friends.

Review from Steve D (Nephew of Resident) published on 28 November 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My bed-bound Aunt was seriously ill and was treated with kindness, respect and dignity by staff who are committed to their vocation – they do not treat the care of their residents as a job. I visited my Aunt at all times of the day, so I was able to see numerous members of staff interacting with residents
and the care and consideration shown was outstanding.
My Aunt sadly passed away after 11 weeks of exceptional care at Rosedale Court. The staff were so kind to me on the day that she died. Even though they were busy, they found the time to check upon my welfare and needs – they even made me a coffee. I cannot thank the staff enough for their care and kindness, they were all brilliant but I especially want to thank three ladies.
Putting a loved one in a Nursing Home is a very hard decision to make, especially with all of the horror stories in the news. However I would recommend Rosedale Court to everyone, it is head and shoulders above the others I had viewed.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Mum has been a resident of Rosedale Court for four years. The home is a bright and pleasant place and Mum has a nice size room with her own toilet and washbasin. She has many of her own things around her which she was able to bring in, which makes her feel safe.


There is a lovely cafe which is always

decorated in different themes, where I can take my Mum for a cup of tea and time together.


Mum enjoys the activities, day trips out, entertainment, craft work and cake decorating, and many other things.


Although the care is of a good standard, a bit more personal interaction with residents and families would be nice, but overall, I know my Mum is safe and her care is good.

Our experience has been very good. My dad was in a poorly state when admitted and has improved dramatically. Every member of staff we've met has been very helpful and courteous. My dad is encouraged to take part in all activities and to mix with other residents. Rosedale is a very friendly environment
and has a lovely family feel.

A friendly atmosphere created by staff who work in all aspects of the care home. My father-in-law has been resident since December 2016 and I have been pleased with the efforts made to treat him with dignity and as an individual.
The caring staff share a good sense of humour with my father-in-law and
I am left feeling that he is both safe and looked after.

I originally placed my mother in this home due to it's excellent CQC report which has lived up to. There are closer care homes (easier to get to) but I am glad I didn't use them, one around the corner from me has closed down. The staff are very professional and caring.

My mum was in Rosedale Court, Primrose, for a year and ten months.
I was with her every single day for the last two weeks so I saw first hand just how wonderful all the staff were.
They really are such warm caring individuals, even popping in to see mum when they'd finished their shift.
It made
everything a lot easier for me knowing that I'd put mum in a home like Rosedale, I don't think I could have found anywhere better for her. Heartfelt thanks to all of the staff there.

I look forward to my meals. Very bright room, cosy and clean. Staff very pleasant. Bed very comfortable but would like it changed more frequently. Very much miss stimulation of chats with other residents who would be capable of chatting. Carers are really caring, and perk me up in my low times.
Senior staff are most helpful and the two activity organising young ladies do a grand job in trying to get me to join in.

I have no complaints regarding this home. My mam has been here over 6 years and in all that time, she and ourselves have been treated with kindness and care (in my opinion second to none). Staff are caring and excellent at their job. My only problem is that since it has been taken over by yourselves.
When I ring and the staff are busy, the answer machine kicks in and no message is available.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.973)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.973) out of 10 for Rosedale Court is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.973 for Rosedale Court is calculated as follows: ( (216 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 222 Ratings = 4.973
  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 Rosedale 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:

    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 82 registered maximum number of service users is 16.4, which has been reached with 19 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.

Hi, I’m Lesley, a Finance Administrator with over 20 years of experience. I’m passionate about making a difference in the lives of those in our care, offering support and assistance wherever I can. The ethos of Runwood Homes, where everyone feels like part of the family, is something I deeply value and is evident from the leadership down.


Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working in various roles, including as a registered manager. During this time, all the homes I managed were awarded an overall “Good” rating by CQC, which remains one of my proudest achievements.


For me, the greatest reward is seeing a resident happy, knowing that you’ve contributed to their sense of inclusion, independence, and worth. It’s also about having a team that works together harmoniously to achieve this, ensuring we provide the best care possible.


I have a dry, quirky sense of humour that sometimes gets me into a little trouble, and I’m known for my vivacious personality. My family is incredibly important to me, and I love spending time with my grandchildren. In my spare time, I enjoy reading and get a lot of enjoyment from people-watching!
