My mother has been a resident for nearly 3 years now and has just celebrated her 98th birthday. No longer able to easily leave Fremantle Court to go out to celebrate, the home provided a delicious spread of party food so the whole family could visit her in the privacy of a function room - well done
- and once again, my mother was well dressed by the attentive and caring staff. My mother feels at home, thank you.

I found all staff, from the manager to admin and wing to be very professional and took the time to get to know my mother who was a resident for respite care. They were all friendly and treated residents with respect and dignity. They took on board the fact that my mother loved gardening and her need
for fresh air by giving her a ground floor room with access to a small garden area. A relief to know she was in such capable and safe hands.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
After visiting my mother in law we always feel uplifted in the knowledge that she’s well cared for and safe. The staff are always so friendly and helpful and you feel that this attitude pervades the whole building. The bedrooms and public areas are clean, bright and modern but homely as well and there’s
a real sense of fun about the place. I have not felt that in other homes I’ve worked in or visited over the past few years. We recently celebrated her 98th birthday at Fremantle and it was a very joyous occasion for her and the whole family. A chance for us all to be together and share the day with the birthday girl! Nothing was too much trouble for the staff and the quality of the food was extremely high. I would have no hesitation in recommending Fremantle Court for dementia care.

Review from Dave B (Son-in-law of Resident) published on 26 November 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
We arranged for my mother-in-law to receive two weeks respite care at Fremantle Court to enable my wife and I to have a break after nine months of challenging caring. Throughout the process from initial enquiry; confirming accommodation availability and date of arrival; care during the two weeks and
collection at the end of her stay, the staff were courteous and professional and made our family feel very welcome. My mother-in-law was a changed person when she came home and although the nature of her dementia meant that this didn't last long, the temporary improvement was extremely welcome.
Should we wish to take advantage of respite care in the future, Fremantle would be our first choice.

During the short time that my mother was a resident at Fremantle Court, she was treated with the utmost care, attention and dignity.
Unfortunately, my mother's health declined more rapidly than expected and her stay was cut short to only a few days. However, she received excellent end of life care
during that short time period and the whole family were very well supported by the staff at such a difficult time.

My mother has been a resident for three years and I have always been impressed with the care she has consistently received over this time, from the dedicated team. She recently celebrated her 98th birthday with all her family around her. The staff, led by the manager, really went the extra mile to ensure
that everything went smoothly with suitable decorations, montages of pictures from her memory book and favourite music chosen. The chef prepared a great buffet which topped it off perfectly. We continue to be so grateful for the attention to detail and the individual care provided.

My wife and I are so grateful to the team at Freemantle for the expert care given to Mum. We always visit unannounced and without exception find her beautifully dressed and cared for. She is treated with kindness and respect. She enjoys her food very much and it has been good to see that she eats well,
something she had lost interest in prior to becoming a resident at Freemantle. We should say that Mum faces the challenge of being virtually blind as well as having dementia and the team, without exception are wonderful.

Yesterday I went to visit a friend. The home is warm and welcoming. Also, it is clean. The staff I met are friendly and helpful. I met my friend in the Croft Room, painting with other residents. We had a lovely happy visit and included chatting with other residents. Everyone was pleased to meet my little
dog, who prefers the older generation to very young children.
All in all, it is a first-class home.

Whilst Fremantle Court is a lovely building, built to dementia care standard it is the staff who make this a good quality care home. They treat the residents with dignity, respect and kindness. They are always looking to improve both the service given and their own levels of experience and training.
The
manager is thoughtful and caring, seeking to operate at the very highest standards.
It was a pleasure to attend both the fireworks evening and the Christmas Bazaar and to see staff there off duty with their own family.

Review from Annie N (Daughter of Resident) published on 12 November 2019 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father was cared for with kindness and compassion. He was living with dementia and required full-time care including feeding and personal care. His carers and nurses treated him with dignity, taking time to understand his history and his likes and dislikes.
The family were greeted by name and kept
up to date with his daily care and given prompt information about changes in condition. His end of life care was personal and tender and the staff were genuinely upset at his passing.
As a nurse, I couldn't have provided better care myself.

Three years ago my mother in law moved into Fremantle Court. The quality of care that he has received is second to none. So much so that when my dad was diagnosed with dementia we knew when the time was right, Fremantle Court was the care home we would like him to call home.
After only a short time,
he is so content and happy there.
We are delighted.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has been a resident at Fremantle Court for nearly 12 months and despite originally being nervous and there for respite, she felt safe, well looked after and gradually began to realise that becoming a full-time resident would be in her best interests.
The staff are very friendly and caring
and mum now regards Fremantle Court as her home and tells all her friends it was the best place for her.
The manager is approachable as are all staff on duty.
I am very pleased to hear Fremantle Court has been rated as Good by the CQC which I believe is well deserved.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.502)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.502) out of 10 for Fremantle Court 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 28 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 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 4.502 for Fremantle Court is calculated as follows: ( (192 Excellents x 5) + (118 Goods x 4) + (21 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 333 Ratings = 4.502
  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 Fremantle Court is based on 27 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 90 registered maximum number of service users is 18, which has been reached with 27 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.
