The staff are first class and provide the highest standard of compassionate care. We chose this care home because we received two recommendations from other resident's relatives and we have not been disappointed. Four staff, in particular, have been extremely supportive and we appreciate their efforts.

My wife has been in Ayresome Court for about eighteen months, I think the staff - nursing and management are great and very pleasant. They are very quick to sort out any problems that arise.
My wife is always very clean and well looked after and the room is always spotless.
A lot of care homes tend
to have an air or odour about them but here smells nice and fresh all the time.

We were very pleased with the care given to my mum. The staff were friendly, helpful and responded well to the problems facing mum. They looked after my sister and I well when mum passed away - responding immediately when her breathing stopped.

I found the home to be very friendly and considerate. Extremely helpful and very very patient towards my mother and understanding. The home was very clearly homely. Nothing was too much trouble. We entered the home with my Mother as strangers, but we have left as friends. And will stay friends. I would
be more than happy to recommend the home to anyone who needed your services.

The treatment my Mother-inLaw received in her stay in Ayresome Court, was from her first day to her last day absolutely wonderful. You may well be proud, no extremely proud of the staff in your home, from the Manager to the cleaners. Well done everyone.

My 96 year old neighbour has been coming here for respite over the last several years. She enjoys coming and has made wonderful friends with both staff and residents. I enjoy coming to visit her and the staff are always friendly and chatty. My grandmother was here for her last few months 12 years ago
and we were so happy with her care.

My daughter is in the home for temporary care and stay whilst alterations are made to her present home. During her stay, I have witnessed extremely good care towards her. The staff have been very very good in all they do. They are also very polite and nothing is any bother to them.

Following two visits for respite care and visiting other care homes in the area prior to my mother-in-law's move into a home, we concluded Ayresome Court was the best home in the area for my mother-in-law. Since moving in, my mother-in-law has settled in much quicker than we expected and has been welcomed
and treated with great kindness and patience. The food has been scored highly too. I cannot speak too highly of the care she has experienced since moving to Ayresome Court.

Staff are always friendly and helpful. They give as much support to me as they do to my mum. Nothing is too much trouble. Someone is always available to speak to and any concerns are always dealt with. I cannot praise the staff enough for their commitment and dedication.

My mother suffered dementia and Alzheimers and was declining aged 93. Then home took her in and cared for her every need in great detail. What struck me most was the high quality of care across all sections, nursing, medical and caring, cleaning, food, laundry, maintenance and entertainment activities.
What gives the home its special warmth was the close collaboration and attention to detail shared by each staff team. Mum was very happy here up to the moment she died.

My father spent his last few days in Ayresome Court Nursing Home after suffering a stroke at the age of 91. The manager and staff moved heaven and earth to get him transferred late on a Friday and avoid another weekend in the hospital.


During his short time here he was treated with dignity, respect

and affection by the happy helpful and caring staff.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.774)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.774) out of 10 for Ayresome Court Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 28 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 28 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.774 for Ayresome Court Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (247 Excellents x 5) + (63 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 314 Ratings = 4.774

  • b) 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 Ayresome Court Nursing Home is based on 28 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 43 registered maximum number of service users is 8.6, which has been reached with 28 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
