Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Dad came in for respite, we were extremely pleased with his care and the conscientious staff.
He is happy here, also and we as a family are happy for him being here. We have now decided for him to be a permanent resident. It has taken a lot of weight off our minds that he is being looked after properly.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My husband was transferred from a local to Romford Nursing Care Centre following a change in his behaviour. It was rather an emergency at the time. I returned from a much-needed respite to find that our circumstances had definitely improved for the better. Upon arrival, my husband cooperated with the
manager and nursing staff, received a high level of ongoing care and within weeks became much calmer and settled. The unit has a real 'family' atmosphere with plenty of laughter and interactions. After many years of requiring protective pads, my husband no longer uses these as by some miracle he now has control over his bladder and knows when to use the toilet!

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
The rooms are spacious, as is the whole building. There is lots of light, with a relaxed feeling to the place. The staff are very friendly and seem efficient, and interact very well with the residents and visitors. The food seems good and the overall atmosphere is congenial. Some (minor) niggles; the
underside of the table that swings over the bed had sticky "deposits" on it. This was dealt with quickly when I pointed it out. The bed buzzer brought in was similarly dirty. I cleaned it. There were other small "deposits" here and there which I cleaned up. There has also been a conflict in some of the information given by different staff members, but we are getting this sorted out. On the whole, it's pretty good here. Thank you (my mum has been here for less than a week so far).

Since mum has been in this home in June 2017, she has improved a lot in herself. The staff and carers are wonderful, she can chat with all the nurses and carers that help her. It really makes a difference that all the staff in the home, from the domestics, chefs, carers and everyone helps with what
mum can do to make her stay more enjoyable.

Very pleased with the care for my dad. Staff are very pleasant and helpful rooms are very spacious and the residents make their rooms a home from home. There seems to be a lot of functions ie. fetes, bingo etc.


All in all, you seem to get an atmosphere of this care home. It is a lovely place to be

and I am more than pleased, as is my dad, which is the most important thing. Thanks to all staff for making our dad comfortable.

Only visited twice and so far all has been fairly satisfactory considering the difficult circumstances. The staff seem very obliging and friendly. Kitchen utensils and crockery a bit grubby.

The Queen's hospital recommended this care home to me, as I needed to find a safe place for my mother to live and not too far away from me to travel to. I was most impressed. Staff are friendly and helpful and the home was very clean and the rooms are lovely. They have activities and outings.

Mother in law has been at the home since February 2017. The home is kept beautifully clean and well presented. All of the staff are really friendly, well turned out and helpful. The hardest decision was having to put mother into a home but the transition was made smoother with the support of care home
staff. My mother in law is now settled and says she enjoys the entertainment in the home, she also says the food is of an excellent standard.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Very happy with this care home which had a lovely large quiet room for mum and her belongings. Plenty of activities happening with great care, empathy and security. Impressed with the menu and choices offered in the dining room or in own room. Plenty of areas to socialise or opportunity for peace and
quiet. Garden could be nicer but pleasant enough in good weather. Highly recommended.

Always found the care home to be clean and fresh smelling. The rooms always look clean and so is the bed linen. My mother seems happy, she is always clean and tidy.
The staff are very friendly and appear to look after each resident to their needs. I think sometimes more staff is needed on duty but
they all work very hard.


My mum doesn't eat very much but her condition is catered for on a daily basis.


I would be happy to recommend this care home.

The manager of Amy's Park and her team have made a very homely and welcoming floor, the bedrooms and eating TV area, it is just like being in your own home.
The staff are very caring and take their job very seriously.
The staff seem to go over and beyond their normal working hours.
They run a number
of daily activities which test and stretch the residents and stimulate the mind and work the body.
The hairdresser and nail bar help boost the feel good factor of the residents.

The care and support to visitors is appreciated. Resident problems when I have been present have been prompt and sensitive. BIG THANK YOU. I was so glad to hear of the activities programme.

I visited a number of homes prior to my mum's admission. We chose the home as it was very clean and welcoming and the residents were happy. Mum settled very quickly and has formed a good bond with the permanent staff. She is not keen on agency staff and finds they are not as efficient on the unit. Mum
feels safe and secure and tells me the staff are very kind to her. I am happy with her care.

He is eating well and settled.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.795)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.795) out of 10 for Romford Nursing Care Centre is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 52 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 52 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 4.795 for Romford Nursing Care Centre is calculated as follows: ( (486 Excellents x 5) + (107 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 601 Ratings = 4.795
  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 Romford Nursing Care Centre is based on 52 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 114 registered maximum number of service users is 22.8, which has been reached with 52 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: Lifestyle Co-ordinator Joined: 2020

I joined the Romford Care Home family in 2022 as a member of the Lifestyle Team. The part of my role that I am passionate about is supporting the residents and being instrumental in being able to provide meaningful, enjoyable, engaging and stimulating activities to all of residents.


I started working in the care sector at the age of 16 and was a Psychiatric Nurse for 8 years, I hold Stages 1 & 2 in British Sign Language which I enjoy using especially when I was working with young adults and children with learning disabilities. I have spent the last 6 years working within a childcare setting but felt it was time to come full circle and return to my true passion within residential care.


The best part of my daily routine is standing back and seeing the joy on the resident's faces and knowing that I have made a difference.

Job Title: Ancillary Manager Joined: 2010

I started working at Romford Care Home when the home first opened 11 years ago as a Domestic Assistant. After 4 years, the opportunity came up to go for the Ancillary Managers position. I previously studied Health and Social Care at College so this has been a great opportunity to extend my knowledge.


I currently manage a team of 10, which includes 8 Domestic staff and 2 Laundry staff.
The home has 114 rooms, so my day is always full on. I love the workflow of the job and also the teamwork side where we all pull together to make sure the residents are well cared for.


Another element of my role is being able to support other departments, I often try to get involved with our Lifestyle Team and their events.
The most rewarding part of my job is listening to the resident’s stories and getting to know them all and their families.
