Review from K W (Partner of Resident) published on 26 March 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I am very pleased with the way my partner is looked after generally. I find sometimes there is a lack of common sense used. I will always praise one lady when she is in charge, such a caring young lady, nothing is too much trouble. Also another carer is good with my partner especially shaving him. The
other staff are very good. Mostly my worry is when agency staff are looking after him some do not speak to him when they are doing anything to him. The home itself is beautiful.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My friend aged 84 was taken to Carlton Court Care Home in November 2016 owing to her dementia as she was unable to look after herself. I went and still do visit her once a week. I must say that I was so impressed by the staff and management showing their care professionalism at all times.

Review from H A (Husband of Resident) published on 11 July 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The best way to describe care home experiences is probably when things go wrong. As they do in plenty if instances, but we can confidently say Carlton home staff, nurses and managers all react positively to resolve arising problems or issues relating to medication, personal care and the well being of
all residents come first. Their happiness and comfort is paramount. The great matters of Health and Safety are taken very seriously as well as a positive complaints procedure. On the whole the one-to-one staff are proactive, extremely well trained and communicate with families and residents professionally. Without a doubt based on our experiences we would recommend Carlton Court to everyone.

Review from Chambi (Son of Resident) published on 16 March 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I was invited to view the work done at Carlton Court, by your Community Development Manager. It was plainly obvious that the manager, within her telephone manner, has a very professional attitude and approach with regards to quality of care for the elderly. That was very heartening to see.
The premises
are obviously well designed to suit purpose, function and organisation, looks well in keeping with high professional standards. This is predicated by the fact the place was being repainted when it so obviously did not requite redecorating. That spoke volumes!!

Review from Peter S (Relative of Resident) published on 20 November 2015 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I sent my next of kin to stay at Carlton Court for rehab for 3 months. She is a very demanding person who needed specialist care and nursing, also physiotherapy, Carlton Court went out of their way to provide that. Her condition improved markedly during her time there and despite her impossible demands
Carlton Court staff were able to cope, albeit with some difficultly, which was not of their making.

Review from D H (Daughter of Resident) published on 22 October 2015 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Sadly my dad was only in the home for a few days before he passed away. However, in those few days we were so impressed with everything about Carlton Court. The home is run very professionally and the staff were all excellent. We felt totally at ease having dad in their care. We were updated on dads
condition every day when we visited and the carers went out of their way to accommodate our requests. The staff were all friendly and welcoming and when dad sadly passed away we were treated with respect and allowed space and time to grieve. We are very thankful to them for making dads last days the best they could have been in the circumstances.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.964)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.964) out of 10 for Carlton Court Care Home 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 56 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 56 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 4.964 for Carlton Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (643 Excellents x 5) + (24 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 667 Ratings = 4.964
  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 Carlton Court Care Home is based on 56 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 85 registered maximum number of service users is 17, which has been reached with 56 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.
