Review from B D (Daughter of Resident) published on 17 July 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
During the two years that my mother was a resident, I was impressed with the support I received dealing with many of the difficult health-related issues. Staff were knowledgeable and effective - prepared to take action to ensure the best health outcomes. It is difficult having a relative in a care setting
and being treated with empathy and understanding makes it more bearable.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My father has been a resident at Fremantle Court for more than 3 years. His dementia is now quite severe he has no memory, he is incontinent and in the last few weeks bedridden.


The fabulous staff in his unit are amazing. They look after him with tenderness, kindness, respect and treat him with the

dignity he deserves.
They also care about my feelings and needs and go out of their way to help me with the trauma of seeing my dad in the final days of his life.
I applaud them for his care. They are amazing.

Review from L S (Sister-in-law of Resident) published on 6 June 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I was struck by the homely feel of the accommodation. Staff team are friendly and cheerful. Thought it was lovely having gardens for people to sit in and help with gardening if they wished. Liked the layout of the units (busy and calmer areas). Noise was a bit of a nuisance for my father in law (clattering
of China and loud voices)


Very impressed, I had lunch today as I was invited to stay so really a welcoming and tranquil place.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has been a resident at Fremantle Court for the past 3 years or so. At all times the quality of care has been excellent, the staff motivated, skilled and very approachable and the management team helpful and understanding.
As a result of my house move some 150 miles away, we have moved my
mother to another care home which is closer. The Fremantle Court team could not have been more understanding, helpful and supportive and provided handover information and assistance which the received care home described as outstanding.

First impressions of Fremantle are that the staff were welcoming and the home was so inviting. Hospitality was offered and accepted after our journey from Yorkshire. Thanks again to staff and management.

We visited the home from Yorkshire to see a distant relative and found the moment we arrived we were met with a welcome and smiling faces. Drinks were offered and a bite to eat which, after travelling so far, was most appreciated. Thank you.

A very special place that has helped my family through the hardest of times. They have cared for my Mum with dementia for the last 4 Years and are now nursing my Dad with terminal cancer. The place is home from home for us all to spend quality time together in a friendly, clean and attractive environment.
We could ask for no more.

Review from Diana L (Daughter of Resident) published on 30 January 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother was resident in Fremantle Court for nearly 3 years. She was well cared for and loved by all the staff. At all times, visitors were made very welcome. The fees were rather expensive but we felt it was worth it for the excellent care provided.


When standards of cleanliness fell below what

was expected, our concerns were swiftly rectified.

When I walked through the doors felt like I was in a five-star hotel. A welcome greeting, lovely atmosphere, clean and smelt nice. I have never seen our friend we were visiting seem so relaxed and so happy - he is an awkward man to please. I have over the years visited several care homes, this one surpasses
all the others. Keep up the good work.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
As my mother is bed bound it does not affect her but there should be activities at the weekend. Food is good and well cooked but the variety for a home of 90 people is a bit limited. The nurses and care staff are excellent, sometimes in trying circumstances and are to be complimented.

Review from A E (Son of Resident) published on 26 December 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother is very happy in this care home, most of the staff are very good with her and attend to her needs.


Mum and most other residents like to see the same staff and build up friendly relationships. It appears that many of the staff are agency staff, which means that Mum is having to connect

with a new face and from the agency staff's point of view they have to constantly try and learn habits, food requirements etc, of their residents. Weekends seem to have agency staff cover and this can lead to confusion of the residents.


I have spoken to several agency staff and they would love to work full time as an employee at Fremantle Court, but can't as the money is poor. Surely if you do the maths, it would save money that is being lost on the agency company, to increase the hourly rate of employee carers and then retain good staff.


The choice of food is poor and the food at tea time can be very poor.

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.
