Moved my parents into Riverside Court Care Home last year. After visiting the home, it felt really homely and friendly, the staff are all friendly and the activities offered are really well-organised and they go the extra mile for everyone.

This care home has capable and friendly staff who do a great job in looking after the residents! I do notice that on some occasions there is not enough staff (maybe due to illness), but all staff are courteous friendly and willing to help residents in any way they can! I enjoy coming to visit.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My experience of Riverside Court Care Home, since my mum became a resident eight months ago, is nothing other than positive. The staff are incredible and afford everyone excellent care, whilst showing patience and understanding. The atmosphere is always friendly and jovial and nothing is too much trouble.
Everyone works really hard to make Riverside a happy place to be. The catering is excellent, Mum loves her food and has as many cups of tea as she wants. She is kept stimulated with the amazing activity ladies and I'm really happy to have moved Mum here.

I write this as the wife of a resident who is unable to write or communicate.
I can see the level of caring and dedication from all of the staff in Riverside Court Care Home. He is well looked after, the food is good as is the cleanliness of the home. It is a level of care that exceeded my expectations
when putting my husband not a care home.

I have just been to see my sister-in-law and friend of 60+ years, I cannot praise Riverside Care Home enough. The management and staff are outstanding in their care and commitment to the residents, nothing is to much trouble, always welcomed with a cheery hello and offered a cup of tea and cake.
Riverside
staff have brought a vulnerable lady who had lost trust in people due to some bad experiences back to a happy and confident person who continues to improve week by week.
Thank you to all from a very grateful relative, I would recommend this care home to anyone.

Review from Ken W (Brother of Resident) published on 10 August 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
From our experience, can only be described as a "Care Home nothing short of excellent in every respect"
Pre-pandemic my sister, an independent retired Corporate Company Director who lived alone, traumatized by then several recent events, concluded she needed a 'Respite Break'
We looked around lots
of care homes bearing in mind possible future needs, an alarming insight, most responses being "I couldn't stay there!'
Based on my own experience visiting friends and family in care and my hands on helping my sister including moving her out of another care home to Riverside can only praise the Manager and all of the staff, what certainly appears to be an excellence of experience and caring staff working together as a team.
From telephone enquiry (Riverside isn't in our home town) I've been impressed, similarly when shown around the home, the cleanliness and air quality/freshness in the building, and ever since the food, quality care and attention with dignity shown to all residents.
Reply from Katie Barnett, Marketing Executive at Riverside Court Care HomeThank you, Ken, for your comments about your recent experience at Riverside Court Care Home.

Review from Helene B (Friend of Resident) published on 9 August 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My partners aunty is a resident. When she arrived there she was frightened and confused.
The staff here are amazing. They are so caring and kind to her. It’s wonderful. She is no longer frightened, she’s eating well and settling in nicely. The relief we have as a family knowing she is local, and well
looked after is unmeasurable. I am so grateful to the team there, for they are not only kind and compassionate to her, they are to us as well. They treat her with patience, love and care. She is treated like a proper human being. With dignity and respect.
We are allowed to take her out for walks and trips but the nicest thing is that they do it too.
They are open and honest with you about how best to cope with the good days and bad days. So we know what to expect.
I don’t think you could ask for a more dedicated and knowledgeable team. This goes right from the top with the manager all the way down. Everyone knows who she is and greet her with love and care. Perfect reassurance for us.
Reply from Katie Barnett, Marketing Administrator at Riverside Court Care HomeThank you, Helene, for your positive feedback towards Riverside Court Care Home. One of our top priorities is to provide comfort into the home so all residents feel welcomed. We are so pleased to hear how well your relative has settled in. If there is anything more we can do, please do not hesitate to reach out.

I am delighted my sister is being looked after by such a caring, helpful and happy team, Riverside has impressed me and exceeded my expectations, giving my sister all the help and support she needs to keep her safe, comfortable and happy.


Living hundreds of miles away from the care home it's a great

comfort to me knowing my sister is being looked after by a home I can trust and it's very clear that they genuinely care about all their residents.

We went to see my sister-in-law at Riverside and were really impressed by the care she has been given. Unfortunately, we live hundreds of miles away and cannot go on a regular basis as other family members do, but know she is being looked after very well.
When we do go, we see how well she is doing
in the dignified and impressively clean surroundings, she is cared for and treated with the utmost respect by the carers and we come away knowing she is in a safe environment.
Reply from Katie Barnett, Marketing Executive at Riverside Court Care HomeThank you, Lesley, for letting us know how we are doing at Riverside Court Care Home. The care and wellbeing of every resident is our number one priority and it is rewarding to have such positive feedback about how we are doing.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.734)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.734) out of 10 for Riverside 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 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 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 4.784 for Riverside Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (174 Excellents x 5) + (32 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 213 Ratings = 4.784
  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 4.95 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Riverside Court Care Home is based on 18 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 = 3.95
    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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, which has been reached with 18 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.
