Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My husband moved into Deanfield Care Home shortly before Christmas 2021 which was quite an upsetting experience for me. The staff were very understanding and caring and they made the whole procedure effortless. My husband is well looked after and very well cared for. The staff have a thankless job to
do but they all do it with care and compassion. I have found them all to be extremely friendly and caring and put the residents' needs first. It can't be easy having to attend to differing ailments among the residents and I applaud them for their skills and attentiveness.

Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5
Some staff on the first floor don't listen. I'm fed up with asking the same thing over and over. Leaving my dad's expensive electric shaver out, as it should go in his locking safe for security as a previous shaver went missing and I had to claim the company for costs. He was stopped from smoking for
four months without telling me, his legal guardian.
Reply from Paul Lawson, Customer Service Manager at Deanfield Care Home

Hi Edward, thank you for your feedback, and following a productive meeting today with the Home Manager we are pleased that your concerns have been discussed, explained, and resolved. Your dad's rights and best interests are always at the forefront of our minds and we will continue to try to find the correct balance and do our best to lock his razor in his safe whilst accommodating his own personal wishes and habits. Dad smokes in a designated area in the home and is taken and supported by the staff whenever he wishes however recurring chest infections in recent months have curtailed his requests to do this. Now that you are aware of our open door policy please come to us at any time if you have any further concerns going forward and we will do our utmost to help. Best wishes.

Review from Cathie D (Daughter of Resident) published on 12 June 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We moved my mum here to Deanfield Care Home after my mother-in-law passed away here in August 2019 (she had been here for about 5-months, and her care had been second to none). The home my mum was in was not meeting her needs, and they had terrible issues that the home was not dealing with. Staff here
at Deanfield Care Home have been accommodating, caring and understanding of my mum's needs which are a bit different to most other residents. They take the time to ensure doctors, hospital, optical and dental checks are done and that I am aware of the results. Facilities staff have been really great in accommodating mums room decorating for us, and the kitchen team have been so kind with birthday cakes over the years. Any time I go to visit, staff are friendly and cheery (which, in itself, is fantastic considering what they have gone through during the pandemic and lockdown). I highly recommend this home.
Reply from Paul Lawson, Customer Service Manager at Deanfield Care Home

Hi Cathie, thank you so much for your kind words, and we are glad to hear that you have been so pleased with the care provided to both your mum and your late mother-in-law. We will pass your praise to the staff, who will be delighted to hear your compliments, and we truly appreciate you recommending Deanfield Care Home. Best wishes.

My mum moved to Deanfield Care Home in December 2021. My mum settled quickly, all the staff are friendly, kind and very helpful, and I have no doubts that my mum is very well cared for. My mum's room is facing on to the garden and is nice and bright.

Review from Diane D (Daughter of Resident) published on 21 December 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 2.0 out of 5
Not impressed with this care home. Most staff are exceptionally nice, with the exception of the main nurse who answers the phone in the ground floor unit. She is extremely confrontational.
Been trying for weeks to get my dad moved as we’re not impressed with the overall care offered.
Patients roam
the corridors and enter each other’s rooms. My dad has basic needs which are not being met, as the staff is dealing with patients with greater needs. Understandable but not acceptable, we’re paying a lot of money for this service.
Rooms are basic and there is a constant smell from the toilet. Started cleaning it each time we visit.
He needs two negative PCR tests to move him, which seem to be going astray. They admitted one test had been submitted incorrectly, however, the main nurse is too busy to confirm the bar code of the latest test, so we can’t chase it. Been told we just have to wait. Makes you wonder how the main nurse treats residents when she is so nasty to relatives.
Reply from Paul Lawson, Customer Service Manager at Deanfield Care Home

Thank you for your review. We are very disappointed that we could not meet your expectations and that you have decided to move your dad elsewhere. When your dad was first admitted we could understand your frustrations about the Covid regulations but the Public Health guidelines around Care Home admissions and isolation are there to protect the Residents and staff and it is our responsibility to follow them. We have cooperated fully with your wishes to transfer your dad and are sorry to hear about the issues with the PCR tests which are out of our control as they are completed by the GP and testing labs. We do not have concerns about our staff members who are constantly praised on this forum. They are incredibly caring and compassionate. We did offer to move Dad upstairs when a place became available however you have now declined this offer. Thank you for your high scores for Management, Activities, Facilities and Safety/Security and we wish your dad all the best in his new placement.

My husband has just completed his first four weeks in the home, so is still adjusting to his changed circumstances. He is appreciative of the staff support and their caring attitude towards him. Staff have involved both of us in planning his care and keep me informed in all aspects of his care. He is
beginning to come to terms with his need for twenty-four-hour care.

Hello, Nancy. Thank you for your review and compliments about our team at Deanfield. We hope your husband continues to adjust and we will continue to do all we can to help him to settle into his new home.

My mum was in Deanfield's care for about eighteen months until she died last week. The care of both my parents and of our family has been exemplary. There would be no opportunity to find fault. The culture of the facility is of kindness and respect of the individual. We are all deeply grateful to the
manager and the team.

Hello Elizabeth. Thank you very much for your review and on behalf of everyone at Deanfield we send our condolences to you and the family on the sad loss of your mum. She is in our thoughts and will be missed by us all. Your kind comments really mean a lot and we will pass these on to the team. If I can be of ongoing assistance in any way then please do not hesitate to get in touch.

My mum was placed into Deanfield on 18th August 2020. This was a really daunting and emotional time for both my mum and me. However, I am now at ease with it as the staff team are so good with my mum. Due to COVID, I only see my mum once a week and she appears to really trust the members of staff. Also,
every day when I call and speak to my mum, there's always some sort of activity or music or something going on. Highly recommend!

My Aunt has been in the home for nearly six years, and I am more than happy with the care, love and attention she receives. The staff are amazing. Treating her with care and respect, and I see this with all residents. During the pandemic, we were kept updated with Whatsapp pictures which obviously had
to stop when the pandemic hit the home. I would and have reassured people that Deanfield is a perfect home for their loved ones to live.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My parents moved into Deanfield at the beginning of lockdown. The manager and staff at Deanfield all made the transition as smooth as possible. The maintenance man had their pictures and photos up on their walls before they arrived to make it welcoming. I was very impressed by the welcome we received
and the efforts that were made to help my parents settle down. I had long discussions with the manager, staff nurse/sister and GP about my parents and their care. They are happier and healthier than they were before and they say that all the staff are very kind, they love the food and enjoy the activities that they are involved in. The ethos of Deanfield as such, all the staff go out of their way to think about all the little things that make life pleasant, getting another cushion, kneeling down to encourage the drinking or just another mouthful to avoid dehydration; finding a softer seat; responding patiently to demands to go to the toilet when my mum has just been. The gardener moving the plants in the garden around so that residents have a different view when they look out their window.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.515)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.515) out of 10 for Deanfield Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 4.515 for Deanfield Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (125 Excellents x 5) + (61 Goods x 4) + (9 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) + (3 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 200 Ratings = 4.515
  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 Deanfield Care Home is based on 16 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 50 registered maximum number of service users is 10, which has been reached with 16 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.
