My wife is currently staying at Crispin Court; it is a wonderful, fantastic place. I had a lot of dealings with the customer service manager; she is such a kind, caring, compassionate lady, very professional. She made a very difficult traumatic journey so much easier for me and my family, a real credit
to the company.
Crispin Court is a wonderful place, my wife is so very happy. We are very lucky to have a home like this in the area. Well done!

Mum has come into Crispin Court for respite care following a broken hip. Cannot thank all the staff for everything they have done and are doing to keep Mum safe and well. Her recovery has been remarkable. Although due to covid restrictions my brother and I have been unable to visit, we have some Skype
calls, and the staff have kept us up to date with Mum's progress. The kindness she has been shown by everyone is clear to see.

My sister and I have always been extremely pleased with the care that has been shown to our Mum. However, during these difficult times the care and attention the staff has provided have been outstanding. This has been matched by the excellent communication we have received and the opportunities to visit
our Mum in a safe environment.

Moving mum into care was a huge decision for us to make as a family. But Crispin Court made this process so much easier for us. Top-notch communication from our initial enquiry down to regular manager updates that we now receive. We had our first interactive ‘visit’ - amazing to see mum looking so well
and happy. She even cut short our call so she could go and join her ‘friends’ for the activity that was planned. Yes, it’s not the cheapest care home, but to see mum so settled makes every penny worth it. Her mobility and weight have improved so much, I put this down to excellent care, stimulation and encouragement. Now winter is nearing, I have no worries about her safety and well-being, especially given the current restrictions in place. Thank you Crispin Court.

My mother has been a resident at Crispin Court Care Home for nearly a year. During this time mum has received a fantastic level of care. The staff are very motivated, conscientious and caring. The food is excellent. The building and accommodation are 5 star. The restrictions of covid 19 have understandably
affected visits to see mum. During this time Crispin Court has invested in measures to facilitate distanced visits and digital communication. Within these difficult times, the staff and management have strived successfully to support all concerned. Mother is very happy at Crispin Court. I am very happy with the care mum receives at Crispin Court Care Home.

During this period of Covid, I have seen this home go above and beyond in every way possible. I may not be able to see my Nan in person, as those visits are really important for my mum to see her mum, but I can completely follow everything that happens on Social Media, by Skype and my Nan has even mastered
FaceTiming us. The staff are like family, the building was always immaculate and I love seeing how happy my Nan is, despite the level of restrictions in place. This care home clearly demonstrates how it can be done, and we are kept informed every step of the way by the management team. I don’t envy the job these people have looking after our loved ones, but they do it with passion, love and dedication. I look forward to the day I can hug Nan again.

Following a fall in her own home, my 95-year-old mother had to go into hospital and prior to her discharge, we were advised that she would need respite care. Fortunately, Avery Crispin Court had just opened and as it was not far from my own home we arranged a visit. We were impressed with every aspect
of the home and arranged for two weeks respite. My very independent mother settled in well and surprised us all when after about a week she announced that she would like to move to Crispin on a permanent basis. She has now been resident at Crispin for over three years and although admittedly she had some ups and downs, for the most part, she has been very happy with her decision and on most occasions when we visit she tells us "I am very happy here" - what more could we ask? In those three years, the standards in the home have gone from strength to strength. During the recent pandemic, every single member of staff and the management have worked tirelessly to maintain the wellbeing of the residents in their care and each one deserves praise for their contribution.

I have been very impressed with the home's approach to the Covid-19 lockdown. My sister has had a number of health concerns and they have all been dealt with by Crispin Court and I have been kept fully informed. The reception staff is always helpful. The manager and deputy manager are approachable and
deal with issues effectively.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.780)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.780) out of 10 for Crispin Court Care Home - Avery Healthcare 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 21 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 20 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 4.780 for Crispin Court Care Home - Avery Healthcare is calculated as follows: ( (221 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) + (4 Poors x 2) + (4 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 250 Ratings = 4.78

  • 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Crispin Court Care Home - Avery Healthcare is based on 20 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 70 registered maximum number of service users is 14, which has been reached with 20 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • 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.
