My dad was only a resident for just over two weeks. In that time I cannot praise the staff enough for their care and professionalism in a difficult time. They were respectful and dignified at all times. Thank you all for your kindness and support.

After weeks of searching for a care home for my dad Lunan Court was the second one we visited that day. We were met by the friendly receptionist and had a pleasant chat then was shown around by one of the staff who instantly made us feel welcome and answered any questions we had she was the perfect
person to show us around and assured my brother and myself that dad would be well looked after.
The day of his admittance I called that evening and got one of the staff members and she put our minds at ease and even let us talk to him on the phone to make sure he was doing ok.
Unfortunately, my husband and myself came to visit my dad on Sunday the 22nd of December for the 1st time since he was in and were met at the door by a rude member of staff who gave a sharp answer when I asked a genuine question. I will put that down to a bad day. Otherwise, everything else has been great.

My mum has been a resident at Lunan Court Care Home for 3 and half years. From the minute we arrived, we were given a lovely warm welcome and that warmth has grown over time. The staff go over and above in their care and kindness of all residents and they are treated with the most utmost respect and
dignity. There is a family feel to the place between staff and residents but also between staff members.

Thank you for everything, what a great loving caring home and thank you all. Too many names to mention individually, that's how brilliant you all are will miss you all

My daughter came to the home reluctantly after a long stay in the hospital when she always believed she would come home with me. This was not possible as she came kicking and screaming to you. I think the staff and management are dealing well with her as she can often still be very angry. You are doing
your best and I know it can't be easy. I hope it will improve. Thanks.

Excellent care home. My step-mum was celebrating her 100th birthday and the staff and management went above and beyond to facilitate this amazing birthday. Staff were always attentive and listened to any concerns about my stepmum's health. They always came as soon as possible. Management was amazing
and very caring and kind. I feel my stepmum is well taken care of and looked after when I have to leave and return to Canada.

I found the home very welcoming. Staff always sociable and helpful. I travel from Newcastle to see my brother and always found him clean and well dressed and cared for. My brother was at the home for six years so I really don't have to say anymore. All staff were his family and all loved him and had
a good relationship.

The staff at Lunan Court provide excellent care. Very people-centred. They listen to your worries and work with the family. My husband is very well looked after, even though he has limited conversation. They still speak to him. December was a magical month. So many activities for the residents. Such
happy faces. The staff, managers and nurses have made this care home a lovely place to be.

Review from Sharon S (Daughter of Resident) published on 20 November 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum was a resident in Lunan Court for 18 months and it was a very hard decision for my dad to decide that long-term care was needed. From the time she moved in she was treated with dignity and respect and there was so much joy and laughter in the home. There was often music and singing and the social
media page was updated regularly with photos. Staff interacted positively with the residents. My mum was well cared for and seemed happy when we visited.
My dad was ill this year and sadly passed away suddenly. The manager and the team were so kind and compassionate. He was treated like a resident as he visited Mum daily. I cannot praise the manager highly enough as she was such a support to me personally.
Sadly my mum also deteriorated in October and passed away. During her last days I stayed with her and was made to feel so welcome, there was an endless supply of food and drinks for all the family that were visiting. The staff were very attentive to Mum at a devastating time and responsive to her needs.

From the day my husband moved into Lunan Court Care Home my family and I were very impressed by the warmth and friendliness of the manager and all her staff.
Nothing was too much trouble and my husband was treated with kindness, good humour and dignity. We were shown the same compassion by the staff
throughout my husband's time at Lunan Court especially supported during his final days which were a very sad time for us all. In our view, he couldn't have been in a better care home and we are grateful to the whole Lunan Court team.

My stepmother was transferred from the hospital to Lunan Court Care Home. She was very confused and frail. She was received with kindness and consideration. The staff were very thorough and sensitive in dealing with her health and personal needs. In spite of this, her health declined and she passed
away in a few weeks. During this time, the staff made sure that she was comfortable and that her passing was very peaceful. I would have no hesitation in recommending this care home to anyone who was in need of such care.

I have visited regularly two close friends over the last five years and have found the care at Lunan Court to be of a very high standard. The care home is kept to a very good standard of decor, cleanliness and comfort for the residents. The staff are courteous, kind and caring, making visits always
a positive and welcoming experience.

Mum was admitted to Lunan Court just a week before Christmas 2020 and only one year into the pandemic, in the early stages of vascular dementia. From day one mum was treated with dignity and respect during some very difficult times when lockdown and restricted visiting was at a high. The staff were
always accommodating and warm, wouldn't have asked for better care. Even more so in mum's last few days where compassion and sensitivity were shown throughout. This gave comfort and I can't express my thanks enough to all the staff involved with mum during her stay.

My mother in law sadly declined in health over a short period of time. At end of life her care from staff at Lunan Court was second to none. I witnessed at first hand the gentleness of moving and handling, speaking to her at every step making sure she was comfortable. From management to carers - domestic
to front office everyone had a kind word to say about my mother in law. That means a lot. Thank you to everyone.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.833)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.833) out of 10 for Lunan 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 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 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 4.833 for Lunan Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (131 Excellents x 5) + (24 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 156 Ratings = 4.833
  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 Lunan Court Care Home is based on 13 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 44 registered maximum number of service users is 8.8, which has been reached with 13 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.
