Review from Amanda H (Daughter of Resident) published on 25 March 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Steeton Court is a comfortable, beautify presented, safe and caring environment. The manager and all the staff are professional, approachable and very friendly. Lots of smiles, laughter and real affection are making my mum’s life at Steeton Court a really positive experience.


Mum’s room is a good

size, and is nicely decorated; we were encouraged to make it a familiar, comfortable personal space, lots of photos on the walls. Mum’s personal possessions and ornaments and some of her own furniture. The resident lounges and dining rooms are light, attractive spaces with beautiful views over the gardens and woodland.


The approach is completely resident centred. There’s plenty going on, and detailed care plans are developed in discussion with relatives. I can’t thank everyone at Steeton Court enough for keeping Mum safe and well and giving our family complete peace of mind.

Reply from Alethea Morton, Marketing Manager at Steeton Court Nursing HomeThank you for taking the time to review our service and the positive feedback for the team. It has been a challenging few months for residents and families too, and the team will be delighted to read your kind comments about your mother's care at Steeton Court. Thank you.

My mother came to Steeton Court for end of life care after suffering a bad fall and advanced dementia.
That was three months ago. Thanks to the dedicated nursing staff and the superb care she has received from everybody who works there, not only is she alive and well, but enjoying a quality of life
we never thought possible. Everything at this home is about the residents, meeting their needs with efficiency, compassion, good humour and lots of love. Nothing is too much trouble, I will never be able to thank them all for everything they have, and continue to do for us.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Mum has been in Steeton Court for approximately two months and has settled in well. Management facilitated a smooth transition from a local rehabilitation centre. We were given a detailed description of all aspects of care that Mum would receive, eg her 'new' general practitioner, meals, daily activities
etc. Steeton Court has provided a 'visitors pod', which has proved invaluable during this pandemic!
Reply from Alethea Morton, Marketing Manager at Steeton Court Nursing HomeThank you for taking the time to review our service. We value all feedback as this helps us to improve where required. We are so pleased to hear your mum has settled in well. The visitor's pod has proven to be a fantastic addition within the current restrictions. Thank you for your positive comments, I'll pass these on to the team, and they'll be delighted to hear your kind words, thank you.

The home is very well run by the manager and her team, and there have been significant improvements over the last year. Communication is very good, and we are always kept up to date with everything.
We are very happy with Mum's care, and would not hesitate to recommend it.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father in law is happy in Steeton Court, his needs are taken care of with love from staff quite often going the extra mile to keep him entertained during this time of no visitors. His health is deteriorating and staff bend over backwards to ensure he is comfortable, amending medication and generally
keeping on top of things.

In the last 12-months, since the appointment of a new manager - Steeton Court has been transformed. The manager has a clear vision and has worked tirelessly to achieve it. She has the skills to bring all the staff onside, and there is now a great team spirit. Mum is safe, happy, comfortable and well
cared for - what more can I ask. I am proud to be associated with the Steeton Court community.

The care my father has received has been first-rate, the quality of nursing and familiarity shown to this proud man has been second to none. For all that, it's a difficult time, and we've been unable to see him, it's been made bearable by these marvellous people.

My mother has been in Steeton Court for almost two years. She regards it as her home and is comfortable and content. The management and staff are very caring and Mum appears to have formed a genuine relationship with them. My mother enjoys the activities provided; the staff put a tremendous effort into
providing stimulating and topical events. I am extremely satisfied with the level of care Mum receives and would have no hesitation in recommending this provider to family and friends.

My husband was in very poor health when he was discharged from the hospital to Steeton Court; we thought he would not last more than a couple of months. Just as soon as he arrived, he received the most amazing care from all the people who work at Steeton Court; their dedication has to be seen to be
believed! He has blossomed since his arrival, he had gained weight and is so happy! We are looking forward now to a bright, happy future.

My mother has been in the care home for 13 and a half years. The care she has received over that time has been exemplary. The care and nursing staff are totally dedicated to their jobs and has made what could have been a difficult time, emotionally for me, a very calm time. I have full confidence in
the nursing staff.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.784)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.784) out of 10 for Steeton Court Nursing Home 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 19 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 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 4.809 for Steeton Court Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (187 Excellents x 5) + (33 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 225 Ratings = 4.809
  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 4.975 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Steeton Court Nursing Home is based on 19 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 3.975
    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 65 registered maximum number of service users is 13, which has been reached with 19 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.

Philippa Young

Job Title: Operations Manager Joined: 2019

I have worked across the group of homes since December 2019.


I am a qualified Mental Health Nurse, having completed my Nursing Degree in Wales. I have a range of experience working initially in specialist mental health services, domiciliary care/supported living and specialist learning disability services before moving across to the aged care sector and palliative care. I have experience in Home Management, Senior Operations Management, and Quality and Compliance roles.


I am extremely passionate about high-quality, kind, person-led care and ensuring that we go the extra mile for people living in our care homes, never forgetting that the little things are often the big things.


I am also motivated to ensure that we have well-supported and valued staff teams who have the opportunity to develop and have a great working environment where wellbeing is a strong focus and staff feel listened to.


I have experience of dementia both from a personal and professional perspective, so I do have an understanding of the journey relatives also experience.
I am a qualified Dementia Care Mapper and have worked on the King's Fund Dementia projects. I also sit as a judge in the National Great British Care Awards.


In my spare time, I love spending time with my family and going on days out together or going for a cup of Earl Grey and a piece of cake somewhere scenic. I can quite often be found in the Lake District; it has become my second home, and my little sausage dog loves it too.

Job Title: Deputy Manager Joined: 2021

Hi, my name is Samantha, I am the Deputy Manager at Steeton Court.


I joined Spellman Care in 2021. I obtained my BSc Hons in Adult Nursing at Ulster University in 2011 as a mature student. My career in nursing has focused on Elderly Care, especially Palliative Care.


I enjoy working at Steeton Court; we have a great team throughout the home, and I love seeing residents smile and enjoy their time with us. It is very rewarding knowing that we, as a team, make a difference to our residents.


In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with family, playing hockey and visiting places of interest (and no, not the pub)! I have been camping all over the UK, Ireland and parts of Europe.
