Have been a few issues but these have generally been resolved. Slight lack of continuity with information. Staff very kind overall. Excellent menu and food choice. Is there a shortage of staff? Never enough time? Sometimes difficult to understand or be understood. Have had a lovely Christmas. All staff
very happy and helpful and made very welcome. Thank you.

Review from Maureen S (Resident) published on 12 January 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have been fortunate with the home my daughter, brother and nursing friends have chosen for me. When I arrived 4 months ago, I was totally dependent and needed two carers to get me out of bed, washed and dressed. Reduced one carer fairly quickly I now can do most things for myself. Only need occasional
help with washing hair. Can now walk unaided but use a stick when not confident. Hopeful to be back in my own home very swiftly due in many ways to the care received at Priory Court but also due to my own determination.

We have been so happy with the care provided by all members of the team. Without exception, everyone I've spoken to has been friendly and helpful. Care is provided promptly and with a willing and pleasant attitude - qualified nurses, unqualified care assistants, cleaning and kitchen staff plus management.
A wonderful nursing home with high standards of care.

Review from Tracy R (Daughter of Resident) published on 8 August 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I had contacted a few care homes in the area but was immediately impressed by the amount of time and understanding that was given to me by the manager of Priory Court, over the phone initially and thereafter at an informal visit.
My mum was against moving from her own home but at every stage, from
an initial home assessment to a joint meeting with the manager and deputy manager (at Priory Court), to the day she was admitted, I cannot praise the professionalism of the staff enough.
She is now living in the residential area of the home, as suggested by the deputy manager, in order for her to have the maximum amount of mental and physical stimulation.
The manager of the residential area is superb, she is comforting, professional and is keeps us informed of any issues promptly. In six weeks my mother has already improved in her mood, physically and socially.
We are so delighted she has some of her sparkle back and she can only further improve. Thank you to all staff, you are fab!

Overall, could do with more staff. Don't always answer the bell. My husband cannot feed himself yet they will leave tea and cake afternoons when there is no one visiting. He does need help all times.

My brother has been in Priory Court for over one year.
If we do have any problems the staff are happy to listen to any concerns and always try to help resolve things.
Most of the staff are very friendly which goes a long way for both resident and family.

Due to Mum's MS and her increasing needs we needed to find respite. High standards were our priority from nursing to the food to how fluffy the pillows were!
Priory Court meets all our expectations.
The staff go above and beyond.
Although it's hard for Mum to be away from home she is welcomed and
made to feel safe and secure, as are we.
It's a refreshing break for Mum.
Thank you all so very, very much for taking care of my precious Mum.

My mum was due to be discharged from hospital but her mobility was non-existent due to having been in bed for three weeks so we arranged for mum to go to Priory Court in Ewell for convalescence and rehabilitation. After two weeks at Priory Court with daily physio mum was able to walk with a frame and
generally move around. Nursing staff and carers were all very kind and helpful.

Fairly good. Mum has moved rooms 3 times in 6 months. The last room is much better, the others were very cold and impersonal.
Care is very good and mum has done well. There has been an incident where she was attacked by another resident, which distressed her, but all in all the4 care has been good.

Overall the care at 88 is very good. All the staff very friendly and caring. The variety of food offered is really good and nice environment to eat in. Constantly trying to improve various facilities and providing new environments for residents to enjoy. All hard working and very kind to residents and
family. Some human error could occur from time to time, although this improved tremendously e.g. Bell/ drink being out of reach to immobile or position of the resident being uncomfortable. Mainly though huge improvements made and just odd busy occasions.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.815)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.815) out of 10 for Priory Court 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 34 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 4.815 for Priory Court is calculated as follows: ( (345 Excellents x 5) + (46 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (6 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 401 Ratings = 4.815
  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 Priory Court 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 89 registered maximum number of service users is 17.8, 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.
