Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Dad spent the last year of his life at Cameron House after having a stroke. The care from the nursing team has been excellent. We could not have chosen a better place for him to be. The atmosphere is warm and full of life. The manager, nursing and admin staff are all professional, caring, approachable
and treated dad with respect and dignity as an individual.
All the family and friends were welcomed and communicated with. What an amazing team, I cannot thank them enough.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
As a family, we were all apprehensive when we were advised mum required nursing home care.
From the first moment we went to Cameron House, we knew this was where she should be cared for.
Mum sadly died in June but she receives the highest standard of care and died with dignity, kindness and we, as
a family, were also treated in the same way. I would not hesitate to recommend the care at Cameron House to everyone.

I find this care home amazing. My dad has been a resident here for nearly two years and settled in really well. He has nursing care and the nurses are brilliant and all the carers, they all provide brilliant care for my dad and I wouldn’t want him to be placed anywhere else.

My dad was cared for at Cameron House in the end stages of his illness. The staff team were always kind, caring and attentive. The nurses provided excellent care and met his changing needs. The manager was available when the family needed to discuss any concerns about his changing condition. He had
a good and dignified death in caring hands.

My Dad recently received care & end of life care at Cameron house.
I cannot praise them enough.
The level of Professionalism, dedication and compassion shown by every member of staff, to myself & family was incredible.
My Dad was kept so comfortable right to the end of his life.
The care, respect
and dignity showed to us as a family was very comforting.
The staff are a truly special team of people, I am truly thankful to them.

My uncle moved into Cameron House with terminal cancer, and from the day he moved in to the day he died, the staff couldn't do enough for him, they spent lots of time with him and made him very comfortable and happy. Thank you very much.

Review from LP (Power of Attorney of Resident) published on 25 April 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
It wasn't good really - the personal care of my friend wasn't met at all. Some staff were good and assertive but others just weren't.
The equipment was poor - one plug socket - the side lights didn't work, there were no taps on the bath, the en-suite smelled of damp, the doors to the toilet didn't
meet or shut properly = no dignity at all, even after supplying personal toiletries the staff didn't use them - they used some other person's stuff. There was a lot more - I have complained to the manager - I do hope that I get a satisfactory result because even though my friend passed away I want my complaints answered.

My mother has been in Cameron House since November 2014. Since she has been a resident there, she has been very contented and settled. This is due to the very supportive carers and nurses in the home. the nurses, in a particular, do their job so well, looking after my mum's complex health needs. They
liaise so well with her doctor, the diabetic team in Bury and other health professionals.
The home is responsive to my mother's needs and the staff communicate well with me as my mum's main contact. The activities co-ordinator is very active providing stimulating activities for the residents.
Above all, the home is well-managed. I have seen significant improvements in many areas since November 2014 and I can see the home continuing to develop and thrive.

My mother has been a resident at Cameron House for eight months. She is 84 and suffers from advanced vascular dementia. She is extremely happy and contented at this care home, and, as we live only ten minutes away, we can visit regularly.
The staff team are very caring and understanding of mum's condition
- which can cause extreme mood swings. She is always clean, well-fed and comfortable. She particularly enjoys any music related activities and gardening opportunities.
Her favourite things are the hairdressing sessions each week and watching the birds and squirrels feeding in the garden. Thank you to the staff.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.507)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.507) out of 10 for Cameron House Care 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 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 9 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 4.607 for Cameron House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (74 Excellents x 5) + (24 Goods x 4) + (9 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 107 Ratings = 4.607
  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 4.9 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Cameron House Care Home is based on 9 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 = 3.9
    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 40 registered maximum number of service users is 8, which has been reached with 9 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.
