My mother has been a resident for over a year. She is settled and enjoys the friendly, caring support of all the staff. The rooms are fully fitted to a high standard with excellent en-suite bathrooms. The whole building is maintained in 'as new' condition. It is a pleasure to visit as I always feel
welcome.

Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
Very very sad to see mum at Pear Tree house today. It was 11 o clock she was struggling to eat cold scrambled egg, nearly edible beans and cold toast . She had not drunk some juice that had been left on a table to far away to reach.
Three pairs of pee soaked pants were in a fruit bowl and no brushes,
toothpaste or mouth rinse were in bathroom. There was black mold in the fridge and the overall standard of cleaning was very low.
Overall it was very disappointing, considering she has been classed a a sexual predator after being found in a man's bed after 'wandering'. None of this information has been related to me by staff. I realise I have to report this and am now hoping to move her. As far as I can see she has had little or no care socially, has attended no events and is left to her own devices. Please tell me seeing this with my own eyes it is not the case.

I spent 2 weeks at Pear Tree House Care Home. I chose to stay there because my son, who is my carer, and his family needed a holiday. The 2-week stay at Pear Tree House certainly gave me a holiday and I would most certainly not hesitate to stay again.

My mum has been a resident at Pear Tree House for three months now and I can wholeheartedly recommend this excellent care home.
My mum resisted going into residential care, even though it was necessary. The staff here have been absolutely brilliant in helping my mum settle in to her new surroundings
and feel welcome in her new home.
Everything is taken care of. Everything, from medical attention to dietary preferences to entertainment. This means that I have complete confidence that my mum is receiving the best of care and attention.
The rooms and facilities are modern and well appointed.
The ratio of staff to residents is generous, and there has always been ample professional care available. Whenever I have a question or feedback, the staff on duty have always been extremely helpful and motivated. My mum is happier, better cared for, and has made friends there. I highly recommend this excellent home.

We first met the Manager.
She was professional, friendly and very welcoming.
My mum has been in for 2 weeks. She has vascular dementia. She has been welcomed and settled in during the last couple of weeks.
I feel my mother is treated with dignity.
My brother visited and fell poorly before he went
to see my mother. The manager and her team looked after my brother until we could manage to get him to the hospital.

Pear Tree House in Wesham is a first class care home. Excellent staff/food/carers/nurses. Nothing is too much trouble and I have been impressed by the organisation of my mum's care. Pear Tree is the best home I have seen and know that everything is being done for mum's wellbeing/comfort/quality of life.
No reservations in recommending Pear Tree.

My mum has stayed for respite periods of up to 8 weeks at a time (for roughly 2 years now) and she has always been well cared for and treated with respect. The rooms at The Pear Tree House are homely, modern and clean and have comfy beds, TVs, mini-fridge, ensuite bathroom and nice views of the garden.
The premises are always kept clean and tidy and they have a lobby that resembles a hotel lobby. There are no unpleasant odours and it always smells fresh. The Pear Tree was decorated in a lovely fashion at Christmas which is fantastic for residents and relatives. There is a hair salon, small cinema and several lounges, garden rooms and dining areas. Food is lovely and residents have menus for breakfast, lunch and dinner and a snack menu which can be requested. The care home has good and easy access to GPs, chiropodists and opticians, so this is a major benefit. The home is also secure, so people can't leave or have access without staff permission. I feel very content for them to look after my mum.

My uncle is happy and safe. He is well cared for and treated with respect from all members of staff. They understand his needs and therefore are able to reassure him if he needs it.
The staff are also good at ensuring we are happy with his care and keep us informed of any changes.

Pear Tree House is a lovely warm, welcoming place with a sincerely caring staff. Each resident is treated with great respect and as an individual, any idiosyncrasies are known and dealt with without problem. Every person employed there knows the name of each resident and engages readily with them, they
are also kind and helpful to visitors.
My Dad has been a resident since November 2024 and I am confident that he is happy and content there. His strength has improved and he is encouraged to do what he is able to do with the knowledge and reassurance that there is always somebody there to help. His carers have given him back his dignity, he is well-groomed, neat and tidy.
Any health issues are dealt with immediately and we are kept well informed of any concerns. The facilities are excellent and the home is constantly being cleaned so it is spotless. The availability and choice of food is amazing with a very dedicated catering staff. I would not hesitate to recommend Pear Tree House.

The home has a friendly, homely feel, which is why we chose it. My uncle is well looked after and we are pleased with the care that he receives. He always looks presentable with clean clothes and a tidy appearance.
The staff are always approachable and share information with us. We feel we are able

We have dined there with him and the food is excellent!

We couldn't be happier with the whole experience at Pear Tree House. Every member of staff that we meet is so welcoming and professional, they treat the residents and visitors alike with respect and kindness. The home and its facilities provide everything that my aunt needs to support her physical and
emotional needs, and we've watched her come out of her shell and relax significantly since she arrived.
It is always a pleasure to visit my aunt now, and I leave knowing that she is in a very good, happy and safe place.
Thank you to all the staff throughout the organisation for all that you do, we really appreciate it.

All staff are very nice and caring to my wife who has Alzheimer's dementia. She is treated with a great deal of respect and I consider Danforth Care home to be the best, possibly, in the North West. All the staff are very helpful in all aspects of care. They are all friendly and cheerful, no matter
what they have had to deal with, regarding difficult people.

My mother is thriving in a caring environment with great carers and staff. There's always something going on with entertainment or activities or days out with themed meals and silver service adding to a great experience at meal times. Mum always looks clean and well dressed with her hair being done
on a regular basis within the premises. Mum always looks comfortable in a homely environment making her stay here as enjoyable as possible. Mum is safe here, warm and well-fed, the basics that you want for a loved one.

No problems with Pear Tree House.
My cousin has been looked after very well since she has been there, October 2023.
The place is lovely and the staff are great.
Every resident was given an Xmas present, which was a lovely thought.
The food is good and the residents can book a room for their birthday
and food is provided for their friends and relatives.
Overall 10/10

This is a caring and loving environment for my dad. The staff place the residents front and centre. The surroundings are lovely and cannot be faulted. Dad's room is warm, comfy and a quiet place if you don't want to join in on occasion. More than happy with where he is at this time of life. When I go
home I don't worry about how he is and how he is being treated. Very nice care home.

The staff at Pear Tree Care Home are extremely helpful, caring and compassionate. Mum has been a resident for 7 months and in that time she's had all her needs attended to and gets lots of attention. They made a special fuss of her on her birthday, making her a beautiful cake. She has a beautiful bedroom
with an en-suite shower room. She loves the meals which are freshly prepared by their own chef and kitchen staff on site. They have lots of activities and people coming in to visit, this home is a wonderful place for our Mum to be (she has Alzheimer's). We are very happy with it.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
After viewing several care homes local to us we chose Pear Tree House for my mother-in-law to spend a couple of weeks respite to allow us time to visit friends. We were so glad that we did. Although we were nervous of our first trial of respite, we were so relieved to find that the experience was so
rewarding. All of the staff were very friendly and helpful and the environment so welcoming and pleasant. My mother-in-law was really well looked after in a bright, spacious room with ensuite facilities that perfectly suited her mobility issues. As a new build care home it is obvious that it has been designed with thought. The building is bright and airy with large hallways and very comfortable rooms. The communal areas throughout are well-decorated with a homely feel. Needless to say it is spotlessly clean and well maintained and managed. We have only positive things to say about Pear Tree House and would certainly recommend to any of our friends in a similar situation.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.775)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.775) out of 10 for Pear Tree House 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 32 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 31 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 4.775 for Pear Tree House is calculated as follows: ( (329 Excellents x 5) + (28 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) + (11 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 374 Ratings = 4.775
  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 Pear Tree House is based on 31 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 66 registered maximum number of service users is 13.2, which has been reached with 31 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.
