Review from Helen F (Daughter of Resident) published on 12 January 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The overall care for my father is of the highest level. Everyone at Gracewell's is very professional in whatever capacity of their employment. The environment is one of care and friendliness. Everyone cannot do enough to help my father and us, as his family. Gracewell's of Adderbury has only been
open since April this year with my father arriving at the end of July. The number of residents is gradually increasing but that is not taking away from the level of care which is given to the residents as the levels of staff are increasing pro rata.
The staff are very visible in each of the areas trying to ensure that each of the residents are happy in their environment and are there very quickly when any of the residents press their call button. The activities and entertainments are very well organised and very much enjoyed. My family are very grateful for the help everyone is giving my father - it has made the difficult decision of placing him in a care home, that little bit easier.

Moving my husband into care was the hardest decision I have ever had to take. He has only been at Gracewell of Adderbury for a week but already I realise that all the staff are united in determination to look after him, keep him safe, to understand him and his health needs, to help him to live as full
a life as possible and all this will happen in beautiful and serene surroundings.

My brother-in-law became a resident at Gracewell yesterday. I was immediately impressed by the welcome from all the staff and then by their care, as they got to know him. He is already happy in his new home. I wish everyone could receive such excellent end-of-life care. Gracewell is a truly wonderful
home.

The wonderful people at Gracewell gave my father the best care possible to the very end of his life. He had eight very happy months there.
I thank each and every one of Gracewell's staff for their hard work, dedication, professionalism and kindness to him and our family, especially during those
difficult end days.
You won't find a better care home in north Oxfordshire.

It's a little while since my last review but my views about Gracewell of Adderbury remain unchanged. It is a wonderful place. I cannot fault the support, care and love given to mum by the staff at Gracewell. The cleanliness and high standard of medical care are also excellent. Huge thanks to you all
who have helped and continue to help mum settle into her new life. She herself speaks very highly of everyone and tells me she is very happy at Gracewell of Adderbury - so reassuring for us all.

Our cousin has had 1 month's respite care and enjoyed the experience very much indeed. We do hope it will be possible to repeat the exercise three times a year, just to give us a break! It was a joy to visit our cousin as she was so happy and all staff so helpful and charming.

I have been blown away by the care and compassion shown to my Father since his admission earlier this week. Everyone involved in his care has his best interests as their motivation. The facilities are superb and staff amazing. The relief I feel that he is here, being looked after and cared for, is hard
to put into words. I know that they have 'got' him (and have got us by extension). I look forward to him becoming part of this wonderful community.

I have had the pleasure of visiting Gracewell to see my mother in law.
I can only say the standard of care, the quality of the room and all facilities are excellent.
I have now visited multiple times and each time I have been greeted with total professionalism.
Nothing is too much trouble for the
staff.
Since my mother in law has been under Gracewell's care she has without doubt blossomed.
She is now more confident and relaxed and looking forward to life.
Thanks to all the staff at Gracewell.

Review from Deborah S (Daughter of Resident) published on 9 May 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I cannot recommend Gracewell of Adderbury highly enough to anyone looking for a home for their loved one. It is purpose built so everything is lovely and new and I guess a little like walking into a hotel, but it is definitely a home firstly and foremost. My mother has taken to it like a duck to water
every single member has taken the time to get to know her story, her likes and dislikes and what makes her tick. She is stimulated every day by various activities form discussion groups, to card games, quizzes, gardening, arts and crafts, if an interest is expressed in something every effort is made to provide stimulation around that interest and if the activity is beyond some because of a medical condition, then another one is found or one to one assistance given to enable a resident to join in. The food is nothing short of superb wit care given to allergies and dislikes. The team at Gracewell of Adderbury have worked hard to provide a safe and happy home with care that is delivered with genuine warmth, compassion, patience, dignity and respect.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.960)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.960) out of 10 for Seccombe Court is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 4.960 for Seccombe Court is calculated as follows: ( (237 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 247 Ratings = 4.96
  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 Seccombe Court is based on 21 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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, which has been reached with 21 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.

Job Title: General Manager Joined: 2022

I’ve been a General Manager for over ten years in other care homes. I worked my way up from care roles into management. I originally trained in management and marketing in my native Poland.


I was very positive about working for Care UK because it has a great reputation, and puts residents at the heart of everything it does. Its values of Caring, Passionate and Teamwork closely echo my own.


There’s always something new to learn and to tackle in this role, but there’s a solution to every challenge and, ultimately, seeing residents enjoying life here at Seccombe Court is what makes everything worthwhile. Knowing I’m making a positive impact on their lives is what motivates me. I’m very proud of the way the team delivers exceptional care to all residents and their loved ones. Seeing that every day makes Seccombe Court an amazing place to work.
