Mom has been in Strathmore for just over 5yrs. All the staff go above and beyond for all the residents so couldn't ask for more. Mum's diet is very complex but they have accommodated since day one nothing is too much trouble.

Review from H F (Granddaughter of Resident) published on 17 December 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
All the staff at Strathmore were kind and caring, not only towards my grandad but also to visitors, including family. They were sensitive to the situation and made us all feel at ease while caring for my grandad. Their approach was gentle and thorough, ensuring he was treated with dignity and always
as comfortable as possible. This care continued until he passed away. A big thank you to all the staff! I would highly recommend Strathmore Care Home.

My father-in-law was extremely well cared for, with compassion and dignity. All the staff and management were caring and considerate. I would have no hesitation at all in recommending Strathmore Nursing Home.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My step-father was treated with the utmost care, consideration, respect, and dignity by all the staff at Strathmore. Every single member of staff we met was kind, caring, and gentle in their care of my step-father.
Management and staff were always friendly, approachable, helpful, and open with us as
a family.
I can't praise Strathmore Nursing Home highly enough.

Lovely care home and a wonderful team! The staff were so welcoming and sincere with all the residents and my grandad. They were attentive and always kept us up to date with how he was doing - genuinely concerned for his health and well-being. They made sure no residents were stuck in their rooms and
all had time in the communal areas. Compared to other nursing homes I have visited, Strathmore always felt friendly and homely rather than clinical/hospital-like and stressful.

I can't praise Strathmore highly enough. Every member of staff I met over a period of 3-4 months showed a genuine interest in my step-father's care and wellbeing. Unfortunately, he was bedridden and recently passed away after only a short stay. However, the care he received was exemplary and you didn't
feel the staff were just "doing a job", they really cared. Having recent experience with another home for my mother, don't be fooled into thinking more expensive options are necessarily better.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father has been in Strathmore since March 2024. We chose it, as it was warm, welcoming and calm. That's important with relatives who are stressed! Dad arrived in a poor state from hospital and he was looked after from day one. The staff are caring and professional. He is now well looked after and
happy. They are friendly and patient with him and all the residents. We trust their deep knowledge and experience. I would recommend this home to anyone looking for a pleasant, calm environment.

Very caring hard-working staff. A lot of staff have a long employment history at Strathmore. Easy to discuss any issues. Exceptionally clean. Other residents appear to be vey happy. A small nice outdoor space for the better weather.

I have lived at Strathmore for 4.5 years. I really like the place and the staff can't find any fault at all with anything. The doctor visits every week so I can discuss any health problems, I can speak to him. Also, the hairdresser comes every week too for our hair to be dressed as we wish.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Continuing family care provided to my father was diligent and knowledgeable staff. A family atmosphere is provided in a very fit-for-purpose environment to mainly provide nursing care. The team of carers, nurses and other staff work together to cater to the nursing needs in an efficient and friendly
atmosphere, built up over many good years of experience with the staff committed to the organisation, led by professional and time-served management in all appropriate backgrounds.

Review from John H (Son of Resident) published on 10 November 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
After visiting several homes in the area, we chose this one for our Mother, who was very reluctant to admit her age and infirmity, but who needed 24-hour care after a stay in the hospital. Unfortunately, she was very frail, unable to walk and showing early signs of dementia. Of all the homes we visited,
this one struck us as the most welcoming, friendly and caring right from the outset. My Sister has just retired after a lifetime of NHS nursing and was self-assured that the nursing standards here were first class. We were shown around the home without any hesitation and were told to come back at any time if we needed to see more, this in itself is reassuring, some places would only allow viewing at certain times. This was not the most up-to-date building that we viewed but it had a very homely atmosphere. Our Mother was here for several weeks and we visited on a daily basis, she was always clean and well fed. At no time did anything give us concern and we feel that she was very well cared for.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.704)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.704) out of 10 for Strathmore Nursing & Residential 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 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 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 4.704 for Strathmore Nursing & Residential Home is calculated as follows: ( (102 Excellents x 5) + (38 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 142 Ratings = 4.704
  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 Strathmore Nursing & Residential Home is based on 12 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 32 registered maximum number of service users is 6.4, which has been reached with 12 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.
