My 97-year-old mother was a resident of Silver Trees for nearly two years until she passed away in October 2021. During that time, we found the staff caring and considerate. Silver Trees is a very pleasant care home.

As my husband has only been a resident for a relatively short time, overall, we are happy with the care and support given to us at a difficult time in our lives.
The management and staff are always happy to answer and help resolve any concerns we may have.

My mother passed away unexpectedly but my comfort comes in knowing that her last 4 years (spent at Silver Trees) were some of her best. She was freed of struggles and strain - replaced by being provided for, looked after and, most importantly cared for - genuinely cared for. No longer isolated in her
own home, she became social, enjoyed joining in activities and fully appreciated all that was done and provided for her.

My relative spent the final three months of his long life at Silver Trees and was well cared for. Although we couldn't visit much due to Covid, we could speak on the phone, and the staff were very helpful at all times.

Mum was a resident in Silver Tress for over 3-years, sadly she passed away in October 2020. As a family, we can only say how well Mum was cared for at Silver Tress; we can't speak highly enough of the residential floor staff and leadership. We felt they all had Mum's best interests ay the centre of
what they do. We visited daily, never having a reason to question the level of care.

I found the staff at Silver Trees very friendly, helpful and respectful.
Over a trying time the staff, though over the telephone, were so nice and sympathetic. It made me feel as though they were with me.
The ambience of the home is first-rate.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother was admitted in a very poor state and was expected to die imminently. The care she received in the home was exemplary, and she lived for 3-months. Although at times she was in severe pain and confused, the staff - except when other demands precluded it - were attentive, caring and did everything
they could to help her.
I always felt welcome and included in her care, and frankly enjoyed my visits. All the staff were very respectful but friendly and seemed to enjoy their work.

My mother was a resident in Silver Trees for around 8 months before her recent death. We were always very happy with how mum was cared for. She was always treated with great care and dignity. All the staff were first class and we were warmly welcomed at all times.

My dad has been in Silver Trees for 1 year and although he says it's not like being in his own home, he is happy and cared for very well. They try their best to make it as homely as possible. He enjoys the food and staff are very friendly. On his birthday, they provided us with a lounge room for family
to visit him, which was brilliant. They also arrange trips out where we can meet them at a location and push him around in a wheelchair, which he really enjoys. He struggles to get into a car so this makes it very easy.

My father-in-law appears to be very content with the care he is receiving. He prefers to spend most of the time in his room although the staff do encourage him without success to join in the various activities that are arranged.
At least he does mix with the other residents at mealtimes. The staff
are very supportive.

My husband seems very happy at Silver Trees, he has vascular dementia. He always looks clean, enjoys the food which is very good and has even put on some weight. The staff are wonderful to him and me. This has been a good move and I wish we had done it sooner.

Silver Trees has been a friendly, caring environment for our mum. The staff on the Residential floor are lovely, particularly one lady who cannot do enough to ensure mum was looked after and also supporting the family.
Communication between her and doctors treating mum was good and we would certainly
recommend Silver Trees.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Our mother had been at Silver Trees for almost a year when she passed away recently. Knowing that mum was being well cared for made a huge difference to our lives. There were highs and lows in terms of her failing health, but the team made the lows a lot brighter than they could have been. They were
unfailingly kind and supportive and dealt with mum with genuine affection, making it as much a place of safety and care for us, as well as for mum. They almost felt like family.

Our mum received the most wonderful care and support during her stay at Silver Trees before her passing. The staff were caring, respectful and treated her with dignity. We are most grateful for their assistance to her and to us as the family, as we live outside the country.
Thank you.

Our family are very satisfied indeed with the standard of care my wife receives. The staff are naturally friendly and make quite a fuss of their charges ie. residents. When or if any mishap occurs, such as a fall, there is a prompt, efficient and professional response. We feel that my wife is in a very
good situation indeed and for that we are very grateful.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.639)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.639) out of 10 for Silver Trees 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 24 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 4.639 for Silver Trees is calculated as follows: ( (203 Excellents x 5) + (76 Goods x 4) + (15 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 294 Ratings = 4.639
  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 Silver Trees is based on 24 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 62 registered maximum number of service users is 12.4, which has been reached with 24 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.
