Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have found Fulford a rest home we can trust for our elderly aunt. The staff have gone out of their way to help her settle in and have been very kind. They also keep us well informed both when we visit and by phone calls.
The décor is excellent and gives a good, relaxed atmosphere.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Mum was in Fulford Care home for 5 weeks. The staff are very kind and helpful. I would like to say the care worker was brilliant, very attentive to Mum and helpful to me when I needed to understand the personal care side of things (as mum has just recently become incontinent). The lady in the office
was particularly welcoming and helpful, setting up a nurse to visit mum when she was back home. Thank you.

Review from Vanda F (Daughter of Resident) published on 25 January 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
The staff are very approachable and friendly towards residents and visitors. They cater for individual needs and activity coordinators take time with residents in group activities and on an individual basis.
It is very difficult for people to give up their own homes and move to a nursing home, but
Fulford have made this transition as easy as possible.

My mum enjoyed her time at Summerlea whilst recovering from hospital. In her time there, she made a recovery to enable to return to her own home. She was well looked after with all the staff being supportive and encouraging. She enjoyed the meals, company and entertainment. Since she has left, she speaks
very well of Summerlea and would like to return!

I have found every aspect of my visits to Summerlea and of my brother's care to be very good. The staff are always friendly and helpful. All my brother's needs are attended to as well as his basic daily requirements help with his limited mobility and individual preparation of meals any medical problems
is dealt with immediately and contact with or visit from his own doctor made if necessary. The home is always clean and comfortable and the staff are capable and caring. Above all, I feel it is safe and very satisfactory environment.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.570)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.570) out of 10 for Fulford Care and Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 25 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 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 4.570 for Fulford Care and Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (208 Excellents x 5) + (64 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) + (10 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 291 Ratings = 4.57
  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 Fulford Care and Nursing Home is based on 23 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 74 registered maximum number of service users is 14.8, which has been reached with 23 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.
