Review from Anne M (Sister of Resident) published on 31 August 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I visited my sister with my niece on 17th August. Threshfield Court Care Home is a delightful place. It is light and airy, always spotlessly clean and tidy and beautifully decorated. A particularly delightful feature is that unlike many care homes, lots of little lounges have been retained from the
original Wilson Arms from which Threshfield originated. The whole is enhanced by a secluded garden which is an oasis of peace for the residents.


Colourful hanging baskets hanging outside the picture of welcome to all visitors.
Threshfield has a marvellous and devoted team working as one, to complete the comfort of all the residents. Their manner on the telephone is always polite and helpful and the whole effect is a credit to each and everyone.

Whilst visiting our friend for the first time, we were pleased to see what a lovely building it was, also the rooms were lovely and spacious, very clean and well cared for, the staff we encountered were all very helpful and so pleasant, our friend said how nicely they all treated her, that the rooms
were cleaned every day, fresh towels etc and she had no complaints. We were very impressed with the place.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother, who had lived at Threshfield Court for almost four years, recently died and had steadily declined over the last few months.
We could not thank the nursing home staff enough for all the help, sympathy and understanding they have given, especially when my mother passed away and we believe
they also feel the loss personally and that she will be missed at the home.

Review from Jo B (Daughter of Resident) published on 6 July 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother was a resident for the last eight months of her life. She had been discharged from hospital in poor health and needing nursing care - no one expected her to live very long. With the professional, loving care given in Threshfield Court she got a new lease of life and her time there was the
best it could possibly have been. The staff are without exception absolutely fantastic - they treat residents with care and dignity but also love, humour and tenderness. My mother enjoyed life and was contented despite the physical challenges she faced and her dementia. The staff are brilliant at communicating with people living with dementia. My mother had a superb carer who was allocated to be her particular point of contact and he was wonderful and she loved him. The way that the home is organised ensures that there is continuity of care for residents and it was very reassuring to speak to staff who all recognised who we were and passed on accurate information about our mother.

I had a sunny ground floor room looking out on a pond in the garden with woodland beyond. Meals were good, vegetarian but monotonous and service was slow. I was helped to the dining room and sat at a table for 4.

Superb friendly staff even if they are overworked due to demanding patients. Cleanliness immaculate and food is usually good though obviously has to cater for people with severe physical and mental disabilities.

Staff make or break any organisation and the staff at Threshfield Court are wonderful. From the minute you walk in, everyone is friendly and welcoming. Staff treat residents with great dignity and respect and take care to learn about likes and dislikes.
The home is spotless, smells fresh and clean
and furnishings modern.

My husband's care has been excellent. The staff that we have met, as a family, have been friendly, helpful and very caring towards my husband and all the residents. We are not at the home all the time of course, but a member of the family goes every day and is welcomed every time.

Four months after my father became a resident at Threshfield Court my mother who was in a difficult nursing home died and the staff looking after my father were excellent in the way they dealt with him through it all even escorting him to the funeral leaving us to deal with things on the day. Much
appreciated. Cannot fault any of the care provided up to the present.

Review from David C H (Son of Resident) published on 10 November 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father has lived at Threshfield Court for well over two years now following a serious stroke. This was not an easy decision to make as I live in Derby and had to decide whether he should be in a nursing home close to his former home in Embsay, or whether he should be closer to my home, making visiting
easier. In the event, the decision to move him into Threshfield Court has proved to be the right one.
The home is clean and nicely decorated, with a relaxed atmosphere, and the staff do an amazing job in caring for the residents. I have had several meals at Threshfield Court and have found the food to be nicely prepared and tasty. All in all, I have been able to rest easy that my father is getting the best care possible. My only possible concern relates to the lack of engagement my father has with any organised activities, and whether the staff could do more to address this. However, I do accept this is difficult if my father refuses to get involved.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My step-father entered the home from hospital. He suffers from dementia and exhibits aggressive and disruptive behaviour. The staff have been very patient but firm with him, ensuring that he is kept clean, shaved and well dressed. Days are spent in the lounge where staff can keep an eye on him. One
of my step-father's few remaining pleasures is eating, and he says that the food is very good and plentiful. I visit every alternate day and have yet to see anything that causes me concern.

Review from Ros F (Wife of Resident) published on 4 November 2015 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My husband initially went for two weeks respite care, but due to circumstances stayed at Threshfield Court for two and a half months.


Everywhere was clean and bright and his room was nicely decorated. The staff were very caring, helpful and cheerful and my husband enjoyed chatting to them and sharing

a joke. They helped him at mealtimes ensuring that he was able to eat easily. The food was particularly good and the chef was happy to provide dishes suited to my husband's taste. The nursing team was quick to deal with any problems related to my husband's wellbeing and kept me informed about his condition.


I noted that residents in the home were treated kindly and with respect by the staff and that there was a good range of activities on offer for those who were able to participate.


My husband enjoyed his stay and would be happy to return there and I would have no qualms about recommending Threshfield Court to others.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.789)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.789) out of 10 for Barchester Threshfield Court Care 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 24 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 24 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 4.789 for Barchester Threshfield Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (233 Excellents x 5) + (44 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 285 Ratings = 4.789
  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 Barchester Threshfield Court Care Home is based on 24 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 61 registered maximum number of service users is 12.2, which has been reached with 24 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.
