Kingsfield Court care home is a purpose-built residential care home based in the community of Earl Shilton, Leicestershire, that also specialises in dementia care. The spacious interiors and homely decorations complement the work of professional carers, and create a calming and homely atmosphere.

En-suite rooms and landscaped gardens delight residents and their families, who also have their own on-site cafe to enjoy. Health and wellbeing needs are very important and the Activities Coordinators work with residents and families to develop an exciting programme of activities and events that are tailored to personal interests.

Residents and staff go out into the community and the community are invited into the home, in order to build positive relationships and enable social inclusion for residents. They are also many intergenerational activities so that residents are able to engage with all age groups, from toddlers to college students.

All care is carried out in a bespoke fashion, with passion, empathy and enthusiasm at the centre of all decisions taken. Carers understand the importance of person-centred care, and the residents needs and preferences are placed at the centre of their care.

Choices at mealtimes are provided to all residents and they take great pride in the dining experience. Personal preferences and nutritional needs are taken into account and the kitchen team work hard to provide a wide range of healthy and tasty choices for residents.

My mom was very happy at Kingsfield Court, Earl Shilton. Her room was comfortable and the staff/carers looking after her did so with patience, care and kindness. They showed compassion and support to Mom and the rest of the family.

My mother went to Kingsfield Court at first to recuperate from hosptial. After a week, mum decided she was better staying a permanent resident, she always told us they were very kind to her and she was well looked after. The last week of my mum's life, the staff could not have done more with such kindness
and care for my mum and all the family. They showed respect and dignity. They washed and dressed mum after she passed, also lined the corridor to see her off. A lovely ending for mum. Thank you.

Making the admission arrangements was done very thoroughly, professionally and sensitively. We received a very warm welcome. The home has the look of a good hotel and is very well-furnished. The staff are efficient and very caring. They are very welcoming of residents family and friends. Activities
are plentiful, appropriate and inclusive. I am delighted with every aspect of the care provided for my wife, and for myself. The level of engagement with residents and visitors is to be highly commended. Nothing is too much trouble. All queries are speedily addressed.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our Mum had a very happy stay at Kingsfield Court for respite following discharge from Hospital after falling at home. Mum has COPD. We can not fault a single thing! All staff were excellent and went out their way to make Mum feel at home, spent time to sit and chat with her, even in the middle of the
night .Very clean, bright and a warm welcome feeling as soon as you enter. All staff always professional, cheerful and caring. Bedroom was beautiful, clean, spacious and homely. Regular tea & biscuit trolley comes round in main communal area and bedrooms. Homemade food and the Sunday roasts were second to none! The activities ladies were outstanding, something planned everyday even a trip to the local coffee shop and a mini-bus trip to their 'sister home' down the road (social media page) Onsite hairdresser salon too! We as a family will always be so grateful for providing Mum with such a wonderful and loving stay. Special heartfelt thanks to three members of staff in particular we will be forever grateful.

My mother had been in Kingsfield court for the past 5 years, whilst suffering from Dementia. The care has always been supportive and faultless. I'm sad to say that my mother passed away earlier this month and again the staff where all so thoughtful and understanding, mum was on the first floor but to
a person Kingsfield staff where magnificent.
Thank you to two staff members in particular for going above and beyond your care duties. You made a terrible situation bearable. My heart felt thank yous!

During the year that my mother-in-law was at Kingsfield Court, I have never seen anything untoward. The patience, care and compassion of the staff are exemplary including the end-of-life care which was faultless. The building is super clean and the food is appetising. Every resident is well-treated

Kingsfield Court offers a very friendly, caring environment. It is like walking into a hotel, not a care home. My aunt has always praised staff for their level of care.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.866)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.866) out of 10 for Kingsfield Court is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 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 4.866 for Kingsfield Court is calculated as follows: ( (228 Excellents x 5) + (33 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 262 Ratings = 4.866
  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 Kingsfield Court is based on 22 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 70 registered maximum number of service users is 14, which has been reached with 22 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.
