I went to Fulford as a rehab patient. I was resident over 10 days and I found Fulford was a 1st class facility.
I still see the Occupational Therapist staff and they are very good.

Absolutely wonderful - Mum is very happy - what more can be said. The care manager and her team were a lifesaver back in March 2018 when I had been let down at the last minute by another home. But mum couldn't be more happy and has settled in very well.
Caring, understanding staff with a sense of humour
- highly recommend,

Mum used the rehab care at Fulford Nursing Home for a couple of weeks. She was a little apprehensive about doing this at first, but have got to say she settled in quickly and all the staff were fab with her. The Oc health team visited every day and got her back on her feet again. The food was also very
good she said. Homemade cakes and scones, a choice at every meal. It all really helped to get her back on her feet again. It also gave us peace of mind that someone was there for her 24/7. Thank you so much for all you did for our mum, she’ll be back for visits and a natter.

My sister has been at Fulford Nursing Home since June 2018. It is a very friendly place and nothing is too much trouble for all the staff. My sister is very well cared for and supported well. Always clean and well dressed. The food is very good and my sister has put on weight. The staff also help support
the relatives and are always on hand to talk over anything they have concerns over.

Mum had a short stay to recover from a fall. All the staff and residents made her feel very welcome. She said the food was lovely and felt very well cared for.
Would definitely recommend this care home.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This is a very good home. I can truthfully say Fulford Nursing Home offers some of the best care I've seen ever. The staff are friendly and kind. The care is very much centred around client needs. The staff treat residents as people with needs and as individuals. The staff ( including nurses, carers,
catering, housekeeping) all work together and the home has a homely feel. My Mum was previously in what is believed to be a very smart high-end care home, and they could not manage her care. At Fulford Nursing Home, care needs are no longer a "problem". The team are doing a great job. Thank you!

I cannot speak too highly of Fulford Nursing Home. Although my mother's stay there turned out to be very short (less than 3 weeks) the level of care and attention given to my mother was outstanding in every way. The home also gave me every care and attention on my regular visits to see my mother. A
wonderful nursing home.

My mother was reluctant to move her from her home into a nursing home, which worried us all. But she was completely at ease at Fulford and felt loved, cared and safe. Sadly she was not there for a long time but her stay was happy and safe.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.637)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.637) out of 10 for Fulford Nursing Home 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 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 14 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 4.637 for Fulford Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (116 Excellents x 5) + (43 Goods x 4) + (9 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 168 Ratings = 4.637
  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 Fulford Nursing Home is based on 14 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 14 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.
