Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother had lived in Acer Court for 5 years living with Dementia. During her stay at this beautiful home which is more like a hotel than a care home, she received excellent care and attention. The staff are always professional and treat the residents with dignity. All throughout my mother's stay they
treated her as she was one of their own family, she was very well cared for and the home was never lacking in a good atmosphere and fun. The Home Manager and her Deputy always had time for the relatives and so helpful at the end of our mother's life. We will always feel that we became part of Acer Court's family as that is how all the staff made us feel. The home offered lovely well-cleaned rooms, freshly cooked food and fantastic care and communication. Thank you Acer Court.

Review from Linda T (Daughter of Resident) published on 3 November 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum came into Acer in December 2018 after living alone for over 20 years. Since moving to Acer Court she has regained a lot of her lost coordination and memory. She was struggling to cope yet would not admit it to herself or anyone else. The worry of remembering her medications, appointments, bills
and cooking took its toll on her. She felt lost as many of her friends were gone or had left the area leaving her feeling isolated even though family visited regularly; it was not enough. The people she had known from her own era were now missing from her life. Those she would talk to about the good old days were no more. Acer has given her support and care, all the staff are brilliant, the rooms and facilities are superb. She has no worries with day to day life as it's taken care of, she has friends and she is safe. At 92 years old what more could we ask for the mum we all love. Throughout the COVID situation, they have kept her safe and cared for, we as a family thank them all. Well done.

I have recently visited my friend who resides at Acer Court. She was in great spirits despite the recent COVID outbreak. She said it had been tough being in lockdown but the staff had looked after her so well and been so caring that she would not have felt safer anywhere else. It was lovely to see her
looking so well. Thank you to the Acer Court staff team.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The staff were all very pleasant and helpful. I found a nice response to a simple greeting encouraging. Being escorted on a short walk or to a shop (on a special bus) was helpful. Choirs, quizzes and entertainment in the mornings and afternoons were enjoyable. Provisions of tea/coffee, biscuits or buns
during the day was pleasant. Having my room well cared for was very helpful. Buildings appeared in the countryside, making the views interesting. Relaxing areas for walking and sitting were made by well-planted gardens. Inside was light with places to sit and talk or enjoy the views of paintings everywhere.
Reply from Angus Matthew, Senior Marketing Manager at Acer Court Care Home - Avery HealthcareThank you. We are pleased you enjoyed your stay with us and hope that you have settled in at home now. We would love to see you again if you are ever in the area - there is a bun with your name on it waiting for you.

Mum moved in first for respite while dad was in hospital and basically she didn’t want to leave so we managed to get dad in when he was released from hospital. Unfortunately, we lost mum in November but being here has really helped dad to get over the loss. Everything the staff do is for the good of
the residents I can’t thank them enough. Acer Court is a five star home with ten-star staff.

My grandma has been at Acer Croft now for a few months, When I went with my dad to enquire, the reception staff were very welcoming and nothing was too much. The management team was helpful with the transition as my dad struggled with it. The care team always put my grandma's wishes first and has built
up a great relationship with her.
Couldn't wish for a better place to take care of my grandma.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.430)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.430) out of 10 for Acer Court Care Home - Avery Healthcare is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 16 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 4.530 for Acer Court Care Home - Avery Healthcare is calculated as follows: ( (145 Excellents x 5) + (38 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) + (8 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 202 Ratings = 4.53
  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 4.9 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Acer Court Care Home - Avery Healthcare is based on 16 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 3.9
    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 78 registered maximum number of service users is 15.6, which has been reached with 16 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: Registered Home Manager Joined: 2024

My name is Gemma and I am the manager here at Acer Court. I have worked for Avery for over 8 years now developing my skills from a deputy manager in a busy Avery nursing home, in Staffordshire, to becoming a successful manager at sister home Alder House and now transferring to Acer Court.

My main experience, knowledge and background is in Dementia care and this is an area of care that I am most passionate about.
