The welcome when our mum arrived was exceptional. The care in every aspect of her stay has continued to be excellent. All of her needs have been catered for with kindness and expertise. We have been consulted on all the stages of her care. She is very happy with her life at the home as are we.

Happy with the care my Dad is receiving, all the staff are friendly and caring. he is happy in the home, likes his room and joins in some of the daily activities when possible. Bedroom - bathroom is too small, no room to turn around/sit on the toilet comfortably.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I found the staff very very good indeed, though often rushed off their feet. A lot of foreign staff who are paid rather low wages.
The room was not satisfactory, a bell outside, a lift on the outside, a stock room up above the room which was extremely loud at times, many times actually. This room should
not be used for a patient!
Reply from Katty Bailey, Senior Nurse Manager at Stanley House

Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback. We have shared your praise of our staff amongst the team; working in the care sector is always a busy role and it is great for them to feel appreciated by the residents and their relatives and for their dedication, compassion and skills to be acknowledged. We are fortunate to have such a committed and hard working team, and are proud to be an equal opportunities employer which is reflected in our diverse team. We would like to state that we ensure fair pay and conditions in line with industry standards.We are sorry to hear your thoughts regarding the bedroom, that it did not meet your expectations. It is located in a generally quiet section of the home although we do appreciate that there may be some localised noise occasionally during the day because of the stock room and lift. We would like to apologise if your husband was disturbed by these external sounds.

My dad was cared for at Stanley House for just under 4 weeks at the end of his life. The care Dad received was excellent. All staff were friendly and respectful and they cared for dad with great dignity. Dad always looked beautifully looked after and he was peaceful and comfortable. At no point did
I have any concerns about Dad's care and this allowed us to sit with dad with no worries as his life ended. Stanley House was very well organised and all staff were very professional. Stanley House very much felt like a home and all the staff were friendly and welcoming. Thank you to Stanley House for looking after dad so well in the last few weeks of his life.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Though our expereince with Stanley House lasted only a few days, we cannot fault the care and comfort that our loved one received in his final days. From the moment we stepped into the home, we were greeted with reassurance, guidance and a sense of real care. We were never made to feel that any question
was too big and never felt rushed to make any decisions. Instead, we were supported by a dedicated nursing team, who walked the final journey with us. Even when our loved one passed, the respect and reverence that he was shown was unmatched. We were given the space to grieve, and say goodbye and each next step was explained delicately. Stanley House, we thank you.

On the first enquiry, the manager was very welcoming and helpful, also while we were trying to sort out a different payment scheme with the council. We felt the staff seemed more interested in interacting with the residents than we'd noticed in all other care homes we'd visited. We were very happy with
the care my mother received and would recommend Stanley House to others.

Mum was in Stanley House for only 8 months in that short time the management and staff went above and beyond to attend to all her needs, nothing was too much trouble. They were always friendly, polite, professional and respectful. They kept us informed at all stages. Also entering the home it had a
very calming atmosphere, it's rather like being in a five-star hotel. The rooms are well-decorated and cosy. There is a great activity team who organise a wide range of programmes which the residents and families can take part in and have fun together. Good choice of meals on the daily menu board. Laundry service provided, what more could you want, I would recommend Stanley House.

We would like to thank all of the team at Stanley House for the outstanding care given to my dad during the last few months of his life. All of the team took time to get to know him personally, and they always treated him with kindness, dignity and respect. He loved his time with you all, and nothing
was ever too much trouble. It wasn’t just the nursing and care team that made his stay with you so comfortable, but also the housekeeping, laundry and catering teams. Thank you to you all.

Dad was only at Stanley House for a few weeks on end-of-life care. However, he could not have been looked after better; his care during his time there was exemplary.
As a family, we were kept up to date with every stage of his situation and medical needs, and everything was explained clearly. Nothing
was too much trouble, and all the staff were very caring and totally professional.
We could not have wanted anything better for our dad's last days.
Thank you to all the staff.

The entertainment programme sets Stanley House apart from other homes we considered. The dedicated entertainment staff do a great job of getting the residents involved in different activities and keeping them moving and engaging in something other than just sitting and watching TV. Overall, the staff
all work hard and are friendly.
I would like to see a bit more attention to small things, such as making sure residents actually drink what is put in front of them rather than leaving them to do it themselves when some need help.

My mum was only at Stanley House for a very short time, but during her stay, she was looked after very well. The staff were all very kind, considerate and attentive, and nothing was too much trouble for them. I was always made welcome, and the nurses always made time to update me on my mum. The only
thing I can find to complain about, and it's not really a complaint, is that the bedrooms really do need an update.
Reply from Karen Jenkinson, Registered Manager at Stanley House

Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback. We are currently in the process of updating and refurbishing some of our bedrooms, and very much looking forward to seeing the finished results! During the pandemic, we were unable to have tradespeople in, but are now (at last) starting to be able to do some of the projects that 'covid' has held us back from. We look forward to showcasing our new rooms when they are completed. The team really appreciate your kind comments about our care - thank you so much.

My mum received loving care from attentive and kind staff who were happy to help at any time of the day or night.
Mum loved the home-cooked food which helped her to get her appetite back, as well as the company of the staff and residents and the interesting and stimulating activities.
Mum especially
enjoyed the singing (and the professional singers) her words were 'we had a good afternoon'. The family thank all the staff at Stanley House for their support and care of our Mum. Thank you.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.697)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.697) out of 10 for Stanley House 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 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 14 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 4.697 for Stanley House is calculated as follows: ( (131 Excellents x 5) + (23 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (2 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 165 Ratings = 4.697
  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 Stanley House is based on 14 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 42 registered maximum number of service users is 8.4, which has been reached with 14 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.
