Review from Caroline B (Daughter of Resident) published on 14 July 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
Horrific experience for my mother and our family in the final months of my amazing mother's life. Management team abysmal. Palliative care sub standard. Communication awful from the start. Only due to myself being an experienced nurse and having close friend who are working in palliative care did she
manage some peace in her final hours. Before this last period I discovered her flat on her back, soaking in urine and fluids from her legs, oxygen unattached and my poor mother in deep distress and discomfort. No answer to call bell so I got her semi comfortable before seeking out of staff. On speaking to clinical manager she denied the state I found her in trying to gaslight me to believe she had been fine and hour before which would have been 40 mins given the time I was with her. My mother went in this place for respite initially and unfortunately due to lack of nursing homes in the area we were stuck. From the start emails with our concerns went unanswered.

That said, we always take feedback seriously and use it as an opportunity to reflect, learn, and improve where we can.We are proud that the quality of care at Croftbank has been recognised in our most recent care inspection report, and echoed in many of the positive experiences shared by others.

I am increasingly impressed by everything at this care home.
My mother has been a resident for over a year now and she has thrived since she arrived.
All the staff are caring, compassionate and kind to everyone, residents and visitors!
I'm noticing new additions and little touches of new furniture
and fittings whic( making the home very welcoming!
I'd have no hesitation in recommending it to anyone!

My mum moved to Croftbank House in March 2024 and sadly passed away in May 2025..During her time there the staff were very helpful and caring keeping me updated regularly through their Resident of the day program and any other time required. I can't thank the staff of Croftbank wing enough for their
support, compassion and professionalism to both Mum and the family during the weeks leading to Mum passing.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My dear aunt was accepted into Croftbank House during the first covid lockdown in 2020. It was a difficult time for us all, but for care home staff and residents, it was awful. However, Croftbank House went out of its way to ensure that family visits went ahead as safely as possible and that residents
were fully protected. Beyond covid, the care given to my aunt by all the staff was fantastic - warm, caring, sensitive and full of empathy. It made her 5 year stay as comfortable and as happy as possible. The staff do a very difficult job well, with professionalism and integrity. It made me confident that my aunt was in a safe place and I didn't have to worry about her wellbeing. Sadly, she passed away peacefully in May 2025, but to the very end, the staff treated her with compassion, love and dignity.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My sister has just completed her six month review, having moved into Croftbank in July24. Like many I'm sure, we her family worried how she would adapt to her new life having lived alone in her own house for some years. No need to worry. She often volunteers that she is so happy in her new surroundings.
She loves her little room with so many of her own things around her. Her door is open much of the time so that everyone who passes by can say hello and they do. She made friends immediately and they visit each other, share a dining table and go to activities and outings together. and at the end of the day she can close the door and cosy down with her TV. She has wi-fi so her family can chat to her - different folks every day on video calls (a boon for those with dementia). She just loves all the foods so beautifully cooked - old favourites and try something new. Wishlist-Shower in her room. All the staff are first class, friendly, welcoming and supportive of us too. What a relief.

My mum went into Croftbank House in August 2024 and she settled very quickly and has been very settled ever since. She is treated extremely well by all members of staff who are very attentive to her needs.
As her daughter, it is very comforting to see her and to know she's safe and getting the best
care suited to her needs.
Many thanks.

Our family is so happy that our mother is a resident at Croftbank. She is very happy there and the staff are very attentive and caring. We have some experience of other care homes and there is no doubt that Croftbank is one of the best in the region. The new home manager is determined to improve things
further through greater involvement of the families which is a fantastic initiative and we wish her well.

The care home staff were very caring and gentle with my mother - who was not always easy to deal with or good at mixing. The staff always treated her with great care and dignity. She was a resident for two years and the family always felt she was safe and well cared for.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum has been here for nearly two years now, and it was due to Mum's condition that she was unfortunately not able to stay at home on her own. Since being here, my mum has flourished in herself, her confidence has grown, care is second to none, and most staff know my mum personally and can tell me
what she's been up to. The daily activities are fantastic, and residents are encouraged to take part; there is a wide variety of things to do, but Friday is a favourite as there is entertainment on, and they love the live music. I know that Mum does, for sure, kick her legs in her wheelchair - she still joins in. The surroundings are super clean and homely, and the staff take pride in this. The food is also super, and encouragement from staff to help residents who may need support is on hand. Staff are approachable and helpful to speak to with any inquiries or concerns that you may have. My family have been very happy at the change for our mum as she is super secure, relaxed, well looked after, and her needs met.

My parent is well cared for by all the staff at Croftbank House. They all know her and call her by her name and treat her respectfully at all times. If I have had any concerns regarding my parent these have been dealt with in a professional and timely manner by the staff. They keep me updated on any
changes in my parent's health. I am very happy with the level of care she receives.

This review relates to the period of covid19 virus. On 10th March, the care home manager held a relatives meeting to update us on action already taken and proposed actions. This gave me confidence that the home was well prepared. A few days later, the home went into lockdown. Although the separation
has been very difficult, it has been made so much easier by excellent communication with the home and group management. My Mother is very deaf and partially sighted so direct communication is not possible, but despite how busy the staff are, when I phone, they take time to update me and assure me that she is fine and settled. The Facebook group demonstrate the efforts that staff have made to keep the residents entertained and provides a valuable link for relatives. Management and staff have gone above and beyond under very stressful conditions, and I will be forever grateful for their dedication. So relieved that there were no virus cases.

My mother has been in Croftbank for three and a half years and I am very happy with the care she receives. Her condition has changed and the staff always keep me informed and consulted me about any changes they think would be good for her. They always phone if my mum has had any issues or is upset and
requires any extra visits from me. All the staff including care, kitchen, laundry and activities are very friendly and like relatives to speak to them, helping them to place residents with relatives. There are activities on every day and special occasions where relatives are encouraged to join in with bingo nights, party nights like Halloween, Easter and Christmas, where we have a great time with all the residents who are fit enough to attend. Relatives meetings are held every three months so we can be kept up to date with things that are going on. More relatives need to attend these meetings, as they concern them and their relatives, as we are encouraged at these meetings to give any ideas or concerns too.

Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5
Majority of staff are good but there are some individuals who should not be in this role. There is clearly a staff shortage. Delays in answering buzzers. This isn't acceptable when someone needs the toilet.
More routine at bedtimes. During the day she seems to be left sitting in the lounge on her wheelchair
which isn't comfortable for her. There are no points of contact for us. You don't know who to speak to about something or are given regular updates. It really depends on who you speak to if things are done. One nurse has been excellent who arranged a 24hour turnaround for her hearing aid repair. Other promises of doctors visit about her eyes have never come to fruition. There should be a monthly update with a point of contact to discuss what's going well and any concerns. Mum has said the food is excellent and she is showered regularly and her hygiene is clearly being looked after. I know this sounds negative but the reputation for this home hadn't lived up to our expectations

Current Review Score: 8.5 (8.520)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.5 (8.520) out of 10 for Croftbank House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.3 out of 5 from 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.2 out of 5 from 7 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 4.305 for Croftbank House is calculated as follows: ( (61 Excellents x 5) + (20 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (4 Poors x 2) + (7 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 95 Ratings = 4.305
  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 4.215 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Croftbank House is based on 7 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 = 3.7
    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 68 registered maximum number of service users is 13.6. 7 Positive Reviews ÷ 13.6 = 0.515
  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.
