Review from Hilary W (Niece of Resident) published on 2 November 2023 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
The nursing home is very friendly and welcoming to relatives and patients. The home is clean and nicely decorated making it feel homely. The food is freshly cooked daily and a lovely selection is nutritious. The staff are very helpful and answer any questions we may have. Medical needs are catered for
daily and checked upon to see if any need changing. Activities for patients are provided to encourage socialising which is good for well-being.

Review from Belinda J (Daughter of Resident) published on 4 October 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Mother was transferred to Stretton from Hereford Hospital in May this year. This was all quite unexpected but I was invited by the manager to visit before she was admitted and my mind was put at rest immediately. A lovely friendly space, light and clean. I was able to choose the perfect room for
Mum so she could see the sky and trees. We could not have found a more perfect place for the last few weeks of her life. She was beautifully cared for by all the staff at Stretton. I'm a nurse and carer myself, and I could not have been happier with the care she received.
Her appetite was not good and she was unable to eat the food that was on regular offer. Once this was noted the catering staff made every effort to provide food that she found more palatable. We were also able to visit whenever we liked and also to take our little dog, who she loved and cheered her up every day. We are just so grateful for all that was done for her at Stretton, it met her needs 100%.

Review from Rosemary W (Daughter of Resident) published on 27 June 2023 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother was very frail when she moved here and quickly became bedbound. She often told me how good the food was and how kind the staff were. I found the staff unfailingly polite, courteous and very caring to/about my mother. She recently developed breathing difficulties (heart failure) and died in
the home 30 hours later. My siblings and I were with her throughout, and the kindness and compassion shown to us at all times by staff at all levels was outstanding.

Review from Elaine P (Daughter of Resident) published on 10 May 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I was very apprehensive about putting my mum in a home but was put at ease straight away by the manager.
The staff are brilliant and very friendly, and nothing is too much trouble for them.
Mum always looks clean and in clean clothes; every day can have a drink whenever she wants.
It was Mum's 93rd
birthday at the weekend, and the staff pulled out all the stops to make it special; they decorated the room and made her a beautiful cake and looked after us all.
I am just so pleased my mum now has 24-hour care, and it’s all thanks to the staff at Stretton - well done.

Review from Jan P (Friend of Resident) published on 16 February 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
Recently visited a friend here and was disgusted to see how shabby the place is. Staff were non-existent, asked how many staff were on duty at any one shift and told only four. Clients left in dirty pads, client not assisted out of bed to get mobile, one resident's alarm was left buzzing for the full
hour of my visit and still buzzing for assistance when I left. Nothing is calming in this place, paintwork like a nursery school, orange, lime green gloss needing desperate renewing. The staff I did see were unkempt, rude, and abrupt to my friend. This place needs a complete overhaul. Please don't allow your loved ones to go here.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.600)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.600) out of 10 for Stretton 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 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 20 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 4.600 for Stretton Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (156 Excellents x 5) + (64 Goods x 4) + (15 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 235 Ratings = 4.6
  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 Stretton Nursing Home is based on 20 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 50 registered maximum number of service users is 10, which has been reached with 20 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.
