Review from Niamh O (Daughter of Resident) published on 21 June 2023 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our mother had a stroke and bleed on the brain in February 2023. She was left permanently paralysed on her right side and unable to speak. She received excellent care at the home. The family were confident she was in the best place. The staff were so kind and compassionate. Mum's dog was allowed to
visit and this was special. Our mother died May 28th and the family cannot thank the home enough for their deep respect and heartfelt kindness.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother spent six months at the Priory Court until she passed away on 23/1/23. I want to express my gratitude for the home, as my mother was treated wonderfully in all aspects of care. The staff were professional, caring and respectful to not only my mum but to me and any visitors that came to see
her. My mum had no complaints at all, whether about care, food or cleanliness.

Review from Eva M (Resident) published on 10 February 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I am very happy at Priory Court Nursing Home. I feel safe and very well looked after by matron and all the staff. The food is very good and are big portions. Every day we do a variety of activities which is fun. I highly recommend here. I was unable to walk when I came here and had a poor appetite but
with the love and support of the staff I am now able to eat a proper meal and can walk unaided. I also enjoy our outings in the minibus to places like the zoo, garden centres and down the lights. Staff have fancy dress up days to raise extra money for the residents fund which is such good fun.

Really clean care home where residents are all well looked after. All the staff are friendly and take the time to talk to you. Any issues when reported to the matron are dealt with promptly. If I was looking for a care/nursing home for a friend or relative. I would certainly consider Priory Court.

Review from Carol C (Goddaughter of Resident) published on 11 September 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Aunt came to Priory following 3 weeks in Victoria Hospital as she needed 24/7 nursing care. We had spent time visiting various nursing homes, considering the CQC reviews etc. We had a lovely welcome and good information about the care and the facilities. Later, we had a tour of the home with the
matron. We were impressed with the standard and the helpfulness and friendliness of the matron and her staff.
My aunt was treated with care and dignity throughout. She was well looked after and supported by all staff; medical attention was sought quickly if needed. Her room was spacious and clean. She felt very comfortable and enjoyed conversing with staff. Sadly, she was very poorly and passed away peacefully after a few weeks. We were pleased she had spent her last few weeks there and we know she felt safe and happy there. Relatives and friends were treated well and close family were kept well informed.
We would have no hesitation in recommending Priory Court for good care.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.848)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.848) out of 10 for Priory Court is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 34 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 34 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 4.848 for Priory Court is calculated as follows: ( (344 Excellents x 5) + (40 Goods x 4) + (10 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 394 Ratings = 4.848
  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 Priory Court is based on 34 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 28 registered maximum number of service users is 5.6, which has been reached with 34 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.
