I cannot rate Sutherland Court highly enough. It brings a tear to your eye, it is so lovely, nothing is too much trouble for the staff they are very helpful, friendly and cheerful. They are helping my mum settle in lovely. Everything is spotlessly clean and tidy. The food is lovely with plenty of variety,
my mum is enjoying it very much. The management are second to none and very hands on and involved. All of the residents seem very happy and content to be there. It is a pleasure to visit and spend quality time with mum.

My mother and father were admitted in an emergency crisis situation. The staff were wonderful, helpful, supportive and reassuring. Everyone is professional and I am happy and confident that my father who has complex needs will be cared for with respect and dignity. My mother was there for one week and
it did her good to be pampered and looked after. The food is excellent, the decor calm and relaxing, the grounds are beautiful. Staff second to none. I have already recommended Sutherland Court.

My sister has a number of persistent ailments causing considerable pain and discomfort, and so she has her good days and bad days. The staff are supportive and caring and relationships with my sister are generally caring and consistent. Medical and support services are accessed as and when required.
Relationships with other residents are usually positive although minor misunderstandings can occur. Overall, my sister is pleased with the care and support she received day by day.

The overall conditions of Sutherland Court is good and the staff are very caring. The entertainment is however very limited due to having no replacement for the entertainments manager who is on maternity leave. The food menu and the standard of the food is not always up to scratch.

Our family has always felt our mother has been well cared for in this care home, and well looked after. The staff are very friendly and welcoming and genuinely care about the residents. The atmosphere is warm and friendly and I would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone. My only issue is the move
around of staff. The Crane Suite needs more experienced staff and the continuity.

My mother has only been at Sutherland Court for a few months but has been made very welcome by everyone. All the staff are caring and treat my mother with dignity and respect. We had mixed feelings about putting my mother into care but we now know we made the right choice by choosing Sutherland Court.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.783)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.783) out of 10 for Sutherland Court Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 14 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.837 for Sutherland Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (143 Excellents x 5) + (19 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 166 Ratings = 4.837

  • b) 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 4.946 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Sutherland Court Care Home is based on 14 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 74 registered maximum number of service users is 14.8. 14 Positive Reviews ÷ 14.8 = 0.946

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
