  • Isle Court Nursing Home, Shrewsbury
Isle Court is in one of Shrewsbury’s most sought-after postcodes, thanks to its idyllic rural location. The charm of the views can be enjoyed from many of the en-suite bedrooms in this beautifully appointed former country house, with some ground floor rooms benefitting from French windows leading to private patios.

The home is proud of its local reputation and offers clinical expertise in many areas, including palliative, respite or specialist complex care for those people living with dementia and other conditions.

Morris Care has developed its own ‘Cedar Philosophy of Care’ which focuses on the personal, emotional and social wellbeing of residents as well as their medical healthcare. This holistic approach means residents can feel listened to, calm and content and families are reassured that loved ones are both safe and happy.

Good nutritious food plays an important part in everyone's lives and the home's dining room provides an elegant environment for residents to enjoy fresh, home-cooked meals – and families are always welcome to join and dine with loved ones.

The social life coordinator plans a stimulating activity schedule with something to interest everyone. From gardening club and summer BBQs to day trips to local attractions like the British Ironwork Centre. The social life coordinator also arranges for a range of regular visitors, from talented musicians and performers to local school children and community-spirited events.

Residents also enjoy the landscaped gardens, bright, relaxing lounges and the wide range of other facilities such as the purpose-built cinema area, hairdressing salon, vintage tea room and sensory spa.

Review from I W (Nephew of Resident) published on 5 January 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The nursing home is very comfortable. The staff are excellent and go out of their way to make my aunts stay as comfortable as possible. Every care is made to ensure my aunts medical needs are fully met. The whole atmosphere is warm and friendly.
I am kept fully informed regarding any incidents/medical
needs etc. I cannot fault any aspect of the nursing home and if all nursing homes met the standard at Isle Court, there would be no negative issues in the care industry.

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.662) out of 10 for Isle Court Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 57 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 52 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 4.662 for Isle Court Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (565 Excellents x 5) + (56 Goods x 4) + (13 Satisfactorys x 3) + (14 Poors x 2) + (26 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 674 Ratings = 4.662
  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 Isle Court Nursing Home is based on 52 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 82 registered maximum number of service users is 16.4, which has been reached with 52 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.
