Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Unfortunately at the young age of 62 years, Dad required nursing care due to his Diabetes and other related health conditions. From the moment we entered the building, it felt like home! Dad undoubtedly found it hard to accept how his life had changed so dramatically but with the friendliness and patience
of the staff he settled. Dad had chosen not to receive any further medical treatment which was respected by the staff until the very end. I and the family can't thank the staff enough for the outstanding care and support they gave to all of us especially Dad through a very difficult time. I would not have wanted him to have been anywhere else!

Review from Laura B (Daughter of Resident) published on 31 January 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
From the start of my step-father's respite stay at Camelot, the staff were caring, attentive and professional. The home was well-managed. They were very reassuring towards my stepfather, who really was not happy about going into respite, but my mother, aged 92 really needed a rest after caring for many
years. But he was very well looked after and the staff dealt with all his care and health issues very well. They kept us informed about his wellbeing and we felt confident that he was in a good place and his care needs were well looked after. They were welcoming towards us every time we visited and would pop in to have a chat with my stepfather even though they were busy. The home had a warm, family-like atmosphere.
Overall, the staff were loving towards him and treated him with dignity and kindness. We would highly recommend this care home, which is well-run by warm and professional team, and we so grateful for all they have done for us.

Mr father was resident since 31/07/23 until he recently passed away. The care he received during his stay was exemplary, I could not speak more highly of all the staff that looked after him and cared for him during his stay and I know he thoroughly enjoyed living there, from the meals he had, to the
quizzes or singers that came in, he always had a smile on his face when we saw him. He was always treated with dignity up to the last. It felt like he was just part of their family and he was treated as such.
Thank you to all the Camelot staff.

My sister had been a service user of the Camelot Nursing Home for 5 years. I found the staff to be kind, caring and approachable. My sister passed away recently, having endured a long illness. The care she received during the last few days of her life was delivered with dignity and kindness. The staff
kept me fully informed of my sister's health at all times.

Sadly, my mother has now passed away, but the care given to her by the staff of Camelot has been excellent over the past two years that she lived there. She was treated with nothing but kindness and that's all we wished for in the later years of her life.
A big thank you to all the staff and management

My mother-in-law has been in the home for respite care with a view to permanent care. She has settled so well, which I am sure is due to the care and diligence of all the staff at the home. No matter the facilities at a home, the value lies in the quality of the staff. Everyone is helpful, friendly
and caring. My mother-in-law has the highest praise for them and the care she has received to date. This is such a comfort to her family that she is so settled.

The staff have made my mother, who is disabled, very welcome and she has experienced very good care from the start. She is newly registered with a local GP and there is good cooperation with the home and local surgery. The staff actually monitor all her needs and review her weight and this has reduced
the family's concerns about her health and well-being. This has meant that my mother has adapted well to the change brought about by having to live in a nursing home and she is happily settled in her new home.

Dad came to Camelot Nursing & Residential Care Home from a rehabilitation ward following a stroke. We were advised that Dad was unable to walk. He was very weak and confused. After just a few weeks at Camelot, Dad is eating well (he says the food is delicious) and is much stronger. He is now able to
walk using a simmer after receiving a lot of encouragement. He says the staff are lovely and he enjoys chatting with them. Dad has settled in well and is much less confused. I'm always made to feel very welcome when visiting. Staff are on hand at all times if you have any questions. Dad's room is airy, clean and spacious.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.913)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.913) out of 10 for Camelot Nursing & Residential Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 35 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 35 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 4.913 for Camelot Nursing & Residential Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (379 Excellents x 5) + (36 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 415 Ratings = 4.913
  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 Camelot Nursing & Residential Care Home is based on 35 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 36 registered maximum number of service users is 7.2, which has been reached with 35 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.
