  • Morris Care Centre, Telford
Morris Care Centre is a unique Nursing Home located on Holyhead Road in Wellington that provides high standards of specialist care. Its uniqueness comes from its three individual Courts, each dedicated to different types of care.

Wrekin Court is a Victorian building which has been refurbished to provide long and short term stays for elderly frail residents.

The centre provides spacious rooms, each furnished with the latest facilities, from pressure relief mattresses to assisted bathing facilities in specially designed bathrooms. Residents also benefit from comfortable sitting rooms and small dining areas which are conveniently located on each floor. The main dining area can be found on the ground floor and offers a delicious menu of freshly prepared meals every day. A hairdressing salon, shop and pleasant gardens are also available for residents and guests to enjoy.

Wellington Court is a purpose-built unit for the care of physically disabled residents of all ages. The home has a professional nursing team that is expertly trained and the highest standards of care are based on each individual's needs. This can be for respite and short stays or for symptom control and post-operative rehabilitation. The aim is to enable residents to become as independent as possible so they can be in control of their own lives despite their disabilities.

Ercall Court is just a short walk along Holyhead Road and provides specialist dementia care for its 11 residents. Ercall Court brings together the practical and the personal aspects of specialist dementia care in a small, bespoke residence.

After spending 3 weeks in a hospice,I didn't think I could get anywhere close but I actually prefer this.Dont get me wrong,in the eye,the hospice takes some beating but from day 1 here I've already been upgraded to a room with a garden which has made me up.Already got the flowers in.Overall though,I
can't fault anything.The breakfast ain't great but other than that..100%

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Mum and dad both spent the last part of their lives in Morris Care Centre, dad from 2021 to 2025 and mum from 2022 to 2024. The care they both received was very good. All the staff made us feel welcome whatever time of day we visited. Reception staff always engaged with the residents sitting in reception
and made us feel welcome as visitors. The staff that mum and dad saw every day, both care staff and nursing staff, always did their best for them however busy they were. We have felt at times that there has been a shortage of staff and communication about elements of care have been inconsistent but when we have voiced our concerns, we have found that we have been listened to, and action has been taken promptly. In their final days both mum and dad were treated with great care and respect with the staff always ensuring their comfort and dignity. The support of all our family in the last few days of mum and dad's lives, was exceptional.

I would give 0 stars but I can't. Wellington court. My brother was at Morris care home 15 minutes before deciding he wasn't stopping, for someone who only has a few weeks to live, you would think, he would at least be able to use the toilet, but as he's in a wheelchair he couldn't even get the wheelchair
in to the wc. the rooms are like a prison cell, to small to turn wheelchair round.
In the space of 2 hours I had seen so many issues with the lack of respect & care of patients, anyone leaving a loved one the area of Wellington court, think twice. This isn't care, it's neglect. Morris care Wellington stay away.

Recently Mum celebrated her milestone 100th birthday. Morris Care helped us to make Mum feel like the queen she is. They put on a fabulous party for her, and they welcomed a large group of family and friends, the chefs made special effort to create delicious food and cake.
Thanks to all the staff
but especially the wonderful reception team, 2nd floor careers, catering and Social Activities

I came to the care home in December 2023. I have had the best care from the staff, they have been brilliant. The rooms and the facilities are very good, you only got to ask the staff, they will do anything for you. It is value for money, the best place I have been in. I have been looked after better
here than the hospital. The management asks if you need anything, and they do it for you the same day.

My sister has been a resident at Morris Care Centre for ten years. She has been looked after very well over that time. The pandemic was very difficult for everyone but the staff did a very good job helping me to keep in touch with my sister, a lot of improvements have been made at Morris Care in the
last few months and this is very beneficial for everyone concerned. The care/support is excellent as is the activities staff.

My 22-year-old grandson has complex needs that have been met by Morris Care. The majority of the staff are very caring and friendly. The main areas have been decorated recently and create a lovely homely feel. The main carer for my grandson is excellent and has developed a very good relationship with
him.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.307)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.307) out of 10 for Morris Care Centre is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.3 out of 5 from 23 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 4.307 for Morris Care Centre is calculated as follows: ( (159 Excellents x 5) + (65 Goods x 4) + (15 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) + (20 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 261 Ratings = 4.307
  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 Morris Care Centre is based on 21 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 96 registered maximum number of service users is 19.2, which has been reached with 21 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.
