My father came into this home on a crisis basis. He has mixed dementia and was a bit bewildered. The whole team was very kind, caring and took so much time to make him feel comfortable. Dad is now a permanent resident and he always tells me how good it is to be there, that everyone is nice and that
they can't do enough for him. And the most important thing for me as his daughter is that he tells me every time I visit that he his happy to be there. I find the team are always friendly and care so much for the residents.
Reply from Samantha Brackenbury, Home Manager at Fairways Care HomeThank you for sharing such thoughtful feedback. Were so pleased to hear that your dad has settled well and feels happy, safe, and supported. It means so much to know that he values the kindness and care shown by our team, and that you feel reassured each time you visit. Your words will be shared with everyone here, and they will be truly appreciated.

My mother moved into the care home November 25. At first she struggled adapting to her new surroundings but now she has settled down and is a lot more content, which is down to the excellent care she receives from all of the staff. On another note i would like to say how much all the staff make our
family welcome when visiting.
Thank you.

Review from Jenny A (Daughter of Resident) published on 21 January 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I feel my mum is finally settling into her new way of life. As I visit regularly, I am getting to know lots of the staff and they are all very welcoming. I did ask a few weeks ago if it would be possible to have tea/coffee-making facilities. I've even offered to bring in my own, realising the kettle
must be PAC tested. I also appreciate that a kettle isn't appropriate for all residents, so maybe a fob for visitors to enter the Olive Room?


The Entry. I appreciate that staff aren't always available to answer the doorbell but on the last two occasions, I have had to wait outside in the cold to be let in. A visiting relative drove over from Sutton on Sea and could not gain access as no one answered after 20 minutes. I usually end up having to ring the telephone number to ask for admission. Is there a way a doorbell could be fitted in more areas of the care home with an access button?


The refurbishment is looking good, and we look forward to seeing what happens with the outside garden space.

Reply from Samantha Brackenbury, Home Manager at Fairways Care HomeThank you for your feedback and lovely comments, we appreciate it very much. Refurbishments are still being completed and we are currently in discussions regarding how we can proceed with family room in the olive lounge and door access for visitors whilst still keeping our residents safe and well. We will update all families as soon as plans are made. We also welcome any ideas and feedback during relatives meetings, these dates are situated in front foyer.

I feel my mam is in caring and excellent hands by all staff. They are always sincere and treat my mam as a person, not a number. I thank everyone for all they do to make her feel loved and at home.

Lovely, friendly, happy place (most of the time). Staff were very helpful and non-judgmental. Liked that residents can wonder around whenever they want to. Liked lock door system. Lots of activities going on for those who want to join in. Always staff visible to chat to and would ring to check if unsure
about your loved one's needs. All rooms that I saw where very clean. I give a great big thumbs up.

Review from Carole B (Daughter of Resident) published on 23 April 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Our 90-year-old Dad was discharged from the hospital to Fairways in March. Sadly he needed end of life care. He had no dementia.


The care and dignity he was afforded up to and including the time of his death was exemplary. The support we were given as a family was also notable and appreciated.
We

would not hesitate to recommend the care given to our Dad. It was often above and beyond the expectations of a care home and more like that of a nursing home. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff.They treated him with the greatest respect.
Thank you to all of you.

Current Review Score: 8.8 (8.816)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.8 (8.816) out of 10 for Fairways Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.1 out of 5 from 6 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 4.721 for Fairways Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (53 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 68 Ratings = 4.721
  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 4.095 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Fairways Care Home is based on 6 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 = 3.55
    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 55 registered maximum number of service users is 11. 6 Positive Reviews ÷ 11 = 0.545
  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.
