Review from Paul M (Son of Resident) published on 20 May 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My mum only moved into Halecroft Grange one week ago but has settled in extremely well. It really does feel like her new home already. The resident activities are very extensive and varied which has enabled her to meet a large number of other residents and staff to support the settling in process.
Social interaction is critical for my mum's wellbeing and Halecroft definitely provides the environment that. Completing the 'life story' questionnaire before the resident arrives is an excellent idea and we can clearly see that this info has been utilised on food preferences, care needs and activity interests.
At this stage, we feel extremely happy with our choice.
Kind regards and thanks.

Mum was only there for 2 weeks respite care, covid prevented her from leaving her room initially, which was not great, but understandably unavoidable. The room was spacious, bright and airy and everywhere was clean. The staff were welcoming, helpful and pleasant and if I needed information were good
about getting back to me if the right member of staff was not immediately available. The food looked lovely. As my Mum was able to manage her own medication, she was allowed to carry on with this, rather than it having to be dealt with by the staff, which I felt gave her some degree of independence. Thank you to all.

Found all staff to be friendly, caring, and professional at all times keeping me informed of any medical issues with my aunt.
The room and care home is always spotlessly clean.
Had some issues with paying for care whilst the sale of my aunt's house went through but this was dealt with sympathetically
without any fuss.
Many thanks.

The home has cared for my Mum for over 5-years. Mum is blind and restricted to a wheelchair. Of particular benefit has been the mental stimulation she has received over the years. I am convinced that this has been one of the reasons that she has retained her health.

We are moving into a time of greater freedom nationally, whilst still having to protect the older members of society. The team are doing a good job of balancing the safety of residents with the freedom they crave to go out and about enjoying their twilight years. Please keep testing residents and ensure
visitors show a lateral flow test when visiting. The staff are friendly, and caring and ensure that my father is well looked after.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother came to Halecroft at a very difficult point in her life and says that from her first night, looking around her room, it felt like a sanctuary. She still says the same. Light, spacious and airy, and always immaculately clean, she loves the peace it offers, while at the same time she feels very
connected to the village with an easy walk.
Her wellbeing has been helped significantly by assisted living with continued independence, and what she describes as the kindness of carers and management. She has especially appreciated the restaurant and the hairdresser and found activities within the community that make a genuine difference to her quality of life.
As her daughter, I have been extremely well supported by the staff and management team and will always be grateful to them for the help they have extended to me in looking after my mother.

Halecroft Grange (formerly Sunrise) is a high standard facility with generally caring staff, very nice rooms and reception areas.
However, the recent draconian Covid restrictions seem way over the top in light of the fact that the vast majority of residents, staff and visitors are fully vaccinated.
Not
being able to take residents out and severely impeding visits is having a detrimental effect on our mother who is a resident and finds it difficult to understand why this is.

My mother moved in in early October. She can't find anything bad to say about any of the staff or the facilities. That in itself, is remarkable! She has a lovely suite with her own furniture. She's eating well again. Living overseas we, her 3 children, were all becoming increasingly alarmed at her emotional
and physical decline which had been exacerbated by Covid and no longer driving. It's an incredible relief to us all to know that she is being well looked after and as happy as we have seen her in a long while.

I can’t praise the staff and care provided highly enough. They go over and above to look after my mum in what have been difficult times for everyone over the last 18-months. It’s great to get back to visiting my mum in her room again and to be able to use the excellent facilities on offer around the
home; it really does feel more like a quality hotel than a care home. Regular updates have been and are provided on ensuring all residents and staff are kept safe in these strange times, and its good normality is returning for residents and visitors. My thanks to all the staff for all the help and support they give to my mum.

Mum went in to stay on a two-week respite and now she doesn’t want to come home! The service is second to none! It’s excellent! She was made to feel at ease as soon as she arrived! All staff go above and beyond and she fitted in with others residents very quickly, the activities cater for everyone.
She loves the choice of breakfast and dinner menu that she can choose from, she loves all the activities that are provided and she loves her room with a kitchen and en-suite which is cleaned for her daily, mum says it’s a 5* hotel and I agree! She's looking forward to staying there again at the end of May! Big thank you to all the staff that make the elderly feel alive again!

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.951)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.951) out of 10 for Halecroft Grange 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 19 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 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 4.951 for Halecroft Grange is calculated as follows: ( (215 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 225 Ratings = 4.951
  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 Halecroft Grange is based on 19 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 95 registered maximum number of service users is 19, which has been reached with 19 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.
