Review from Mary W (Wife of Resident) published on 6 April 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The Cornmill Nursing Home is set in beautiful surroundings and provides first-class nursing and care services. The rooms are beautifully furnished and there are lots of little personal touches which do help the Cornmill to be a genuine home from home. Friends and relatives are made very welcome and
encouraged to join in the many varied activities. My late husband suffered from Parkinson's disease and was very severely disabled. He could do very little for himself. I knew that he was safe and happy in high-class surroundings. This was a great comfort to me during his illness and I received wonderful support from the Cornmill Nursing Home.

The team and management at Cornmill Nursing Home are caring and professional. My dad was treated with dignity and respect during his time at Cornmill Nursing Home. End of life care was provided with the utmost care and respect. My dad was cared for with amazing care provided by amazing staff especially
in the weeks prior and at death.

We chose the Cornmill Nursing Home for my wife after some research and we were not disappointed. The home even laid on a meal for several of us on my wife's birthday.

My uncle received first class care during his short stay at the end of his life.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Cornmill Nursing Home is a lovely place. Picturesque building and very pretty location. Inside it is spotlessly clean, well-maintained, peaceful and homely. The staff are wonderful, they can't do enough for you and food looks delicious. Sadly my mother was only a resident here for a few weeks. I had
hoped that she would have enjoyed her last few years here but her illness quickly took over.


I would recommend Cornmill Nursing Home to anyone without hesitation.

Dear C S
Thank you for your kind comments. The staff are always most appreciative of thanks from a resident's family. I will pass your praise onto them.

Review from Phil D (Son of Resident) published on 31 July 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This was Mum's third and final care home as I'd wheeled her out of the first two in disgust.
The treatment and care she was given in the Cornmill was second to none. She was almost treated as family by the staff, many of whom were deeply upset by her passing.
If only all care homes were run like the
Cornmill.

I am confident that my husband is well cared for. I know he has a good relationship with staff especially those members of staff who provide his nursing care.


Throughout the difficult aftermath of flooding in November 2015 the owners have done their level best to ensure that it was "business as

usual" and they are to be commended for their resolution in the face of such difficulties.

Review from Ann (Daughter of Resident) published on 11 July 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father has lived in the Cornmll for over a year. Since arriving (in a very weakened state from hospital) he has not looked back. He is cared for by staff who are professional, efficient, caring and respectful. He is listened to and wherever possible his wishes are met. He says "nothing is too much
trouble for them".
His sense of humour has returned and he feels very comfortable in the very clean and pleasant environment. He has recently had a downturn in his condition, the staff have reacted promptly and will always find time to discuss aspects of care with relatives, if asked. My father's siblings visit and again they think The Cornmill is a very caring home in a wonderful setting.

Review from Marion H (Daughter of Resident) published on 27 June 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both my parents have been resident at the Cornmill for intermittent periods from January 2016. Throughout they have been cared for in the highest professional manner and also with real concern and kindness. Recently my father returned for end of life care before his death. During this time I was kept
fully informed and encouraged to spend time with him. After his death the family were supported well and given useful practical help. My mother is currently a resident and I have complete peace of mind that she is safe and being cared for in the best possible way. Whilst all the staff have been good at caring for my parents I would like to especially praise the Matron for the exceptional help and support she has given to my parents and the family.

My mother has been in The Cornmill for four years, during this time mum's needs have changed a great deal. Whatever her needs they have always been fully understood and met by staff and facilities at The Cornmill. Mum has been comfortable, happy and content during her stay, and I have been able to resume
a more normal life style feeling confident that mum is well looked after.

Of all the homes for Mum that we visited Cornmill is far and away the best. The accommodation is excellent and the food, very important for Mum, is of a very high standard. We appreciate the entertainment and activities provided to stimulate the residents. Mum knows she is very lucky to have a room
there and we are very fortunate that the nursing care takes away all our worries about her health.

One word FANTASTIC! This is a real home from home where the needs of the residents are of the utmost importance. Nothing is too much trouble and family members are also supported. My Uncle is happy and safe and I know that he is getting the best care possible. The staff are amazing and the Matron and
Manager are always available.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.700)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.700) out of 10 for Cornmill Nursing & Residential Care 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 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 10 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 4.738 for Cornmill Nursing & Residential Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (108 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 130 Ratings = 4.738
  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 4.962 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Cornmill Nursing & Residential Care Home is based on 10 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 52 registered maximum number of service users is 10.4. 10 Positive Reviews ÷ 10.4 = 0.962
  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.
