Review from H S (Daughter of Resident) published on 28 November 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
The staff at Halcyon Court are caring and responsive. Mum was unhappy at having to move into residential after becoming too frail to live at home.
Staff have taken time to talk to Mum and get to know her.
They have kept to her routine and made sure she has food choices she likes.
Any concerns have
been promptly and efficiently attended to by the manager.
Within two weeks Mum is happy and feels safe.

Review from J M (Friend of Resident) published on 7 September 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Very professional yet very caring towards our friend. Could deal with his foibles and strange habits. Staff were friendly and welcoming.


He returned from the hospital under continuing care - end of life, for his last 7 days and was cared for with love, concern and respect. He was comfortable, clean

and treated with so much concern.


Cannot praise care too highly.

Review from Janet S (Daughter of Resident) published on 24 July 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My mum seems to be very settled at Halcyon Court. She loves the food and the staff seem to genuinely care about the residents - my mum says they would do anything for you. Her room is lovely and cleaned regularly. She has a group of friends and enjoys some of the activities. It is very easy to communicate
with management - they are approachable and friendly. My mum doesn't shower or change her clothes as often as we would like but that could be down to her not wanting to and I appreciate the staff's hard work and are short of time.

Review from M H (Son of Resident) published on 20 March 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother was a reluctant resident in the home. The staff and administration worked very hard consistently over her first six weeks to make her welcome and address her needs. They really tried very hard to win her over. The quality of catering varies. There was a disappointment with the time it took
to address some maintenance issues but not the fault of this home or staff, more the policy fo the Anchor Group.
Care needs are being continuously assessed and addressed. Hospital appointments are well arranged and organised. This is an excellent care home.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
We were very dubious about putting Mum in a care home. After visiting Halcyon Court we were very pleased. The staff are very helpful and caring. Nothing seems to be too much trouble. Every query I have had has been dealt with promptly and efficiently. I couldn't be happier with our choice of care home

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
The overall standard of care is good although the home is sometimes hampered by staff sickness and lack of back up. More care could be had with the personal effects of the residents. Food is good and as is the dignity the staff give to residents.
Reply from Kairen Horner, District Manager at Halcyon CourtThank you for your comments; we welcome feedback and always use it to improve the service we provide. Our regular staff can often help out when there is staff sickness and we also have dedicated bank staff who will step in and cover when needed. I understand that recently, there was an unusual situation whereby several staff were sick at short notice and it took some time to arrange full cover. Due to room vacancies, staffing levels were adequate but we accept that this made staff extremely busy. This was an exceptional circumstance but in light of this occurrence, we are currently recruiting more bank staff.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.611)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.611) out of 10 for Halcyon Court 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 36 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 33 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 4.611 for Halcyon Court is calculated as follows: ( (300 Excellents x 5) + (86 Goods x 4) + (21 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) + (7 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 416 Ratings = 4.611
  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 Halcyon Court is based on 33 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 + 0.025 = 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 71 registered maximum number of service users is 14.2, which has been reached with 33 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.
