My mum has been a resident at this lovely care home for a few months now and has settled in well.
Staff get to know their residents individually and fulfil their needs. They are so helpful , acknowledgeable and professional with the residents and family. We love that all staff are dementia trained
and that the care home is situated right along Great Yarmouth sea front. We know that she is being looked after and being cared for fantastically and we trust them with her care.
We can't recommend them highly enough.

Mum has been at The Salisbury since September. She has settled and is very happy walking up and down the corridors. The staff are always friendly and helpful. They always greet you with a smile and go out of their way to be helpful. We are very happy Mum is there. Keep up the good work.

My goodness I don't know where to begin.
I love this care home. I viewed several in 2023 when I was looking for home for my auntie who has dementia. All the staff are lovely and kind. They have all worked there for years and are all very close. My auntie is having the best care in Salisbury Care Home.
Thank you all from the bottom of my heart.

We have been very impressed with Salisbury House with the exceptional care and the friendliness of the staff also how caring and fun that is shown to the residents. It is always kept clean and the meals are very good and given a choice. We thank all at Salisbury House for everything and safety is very
good. We are asked by management if we are content with everything (which we are).

I come to visit a friend in the Salisbury and have to say what a wonderful home it is, the staff go above and beyond to ensure everyone is happy and well looked after, the lounge areas are are clean and tidy and staff interact with everyone, the manager is very approachable and will take the time to
speak to residents and family and friends, my friend is very very happy there,his room is lovely, well decorated and overlooking the gardens, I cannot praise this home enough. Each time I have visited there has been a lot of laughter and joy, they have a music lady that comes and sings and dance, the residents absolutely love her and will all join in,all in all I cannot fault this home.

My mother has dementia but could not receive better care anywhere. She is treated with dignity, kept clean, healthy and comfortable, is allowed to keep her own hours, is not coerced to do anything against her will. The staff are caring, sensible, practical and know the residents and their idiosyncratic
well. I feel The Salisbury Residential Home offers excellent service at a reasonable price. I would highly recommend this home for any elderly person.

Thursday evening when I left The Salisbury I had to wait as an ambulance ceww were taking a resident to hospital and there was a genuine air of concern and support for him from the three staff present. As it was my mum's 97th birthday the team had arranged for my sister, brother-in-law and me to have
our lunch with her in a private dining area. This was much appreciated by us all and was a major contribution to Mum's special day. This is the first time we have been able to do this, which is much appreciated by us all.

Since Mum's first residence at The Salisbury all staff have shown great compassion, care and support. Staff have a good rapport with Mum and foster a friendly approachable manner. They always go the 'extra mile'! As we have to travel a considerable distance to visit, we have been invited to join Mum
for lunch and have done so on a few occasions. We can therefore at least to the quality of the food being both variable and enjoyable.

Very happy with the care and support given to mother-in-law on all occasions I've visited. The staff without exception are friendly, supportive and caring. The open door policy ensures that there is always a friendly face just checking in and ensuring her safety. There is also a plentiful and varied
supply of food to keep her healthy.

We found the care at the Salisbury outstanding- they took care of my father-in-law with such compassion in his last days and gave our family the sort of care and attention that is reserved for close family and friends - thank you to the Salisbury for making the last days of his and his large family
as special as can be in difficult circumstances.

The home has cared for my mother for the last 18 months, Mum sadly passed away on the 16th of July 2024. Her care during the last 18 months has been second to none and cannot be faulted. The staff are all very professional and caring both to the residents and their families. I have absolutely no hesitation
in recommending this home to anyone.

Both of my parents are residents of The Salisbury. The staff are second to none, absolutely amazing, kind and so very patient.
My worries over my parent's care has disappeared since my parents moved in here. The manager and her team are exceptional and I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending
the home to anyone who was in need of their help and care.

Brilliant - mum was treated with compassion, dignity, love and kindness by all the staff - nothing was too much trouble - staff supported us as a family right through mum's stay. Mum could no longer be in her own home but this care home was just as good. All staff lovely and caring.

The Salisbury Residential Home really does go above and beyond with my grandmother. Not only do they take care of all her needs that you would expect a care home to do but they also treat her like family. That might be persuading her to try something she doesn’t want to do, giving her a kiss on her
head or a hug when she is getting upset and emotional or brushing her hair out of her eye. They do this with a smile on their face and often with little to no thanks from my grandmother if she is feeling unhappy. When I have had a bad visit with her it lifts my heart to see how happy she is when the carers enter the room which is all the proof I need that my grandmother is in exactly the right place for her.

My review of The Salisbury Residential Home and all the team is for the excellent care they give my mum. The team are always happy to help and go the extra mile with the care they give to the residents. The facilities are good and aligned to the needs of the residents without being obtrusive to ensure
that everyone is comfortable and it is a home-from-home.
The team carry out various activities such as taking able residents out to the beautiful waterways gardens opposite (weather permitting...) and to the café there, trips to the panto at Christmas and other activities throughout the year. There is live music twice a week in the lounge and importantly for my mum a hairdresser regularly visits and getting your nails painted!
Everywhere is spotlessly clean and the communal dining room is great with a choice of food to suit, plus a tea trolley a points through the day for all residents even if they are in their rooms, which you can bring possessions to make it more homely.
Highly recommend!

My review of The Salisbury Residential Home is excellent. It was my mum's home for the last three years and four months, until Mum passed in January 2023. I couldn't fault it, Mum was always happy singing and dancing, joining in with lots of activities, watching Christmas shows, comedy films and lots
more entertainment going on. The Salisbury Residential Home was spotlessly clean, the food was very good and the care and love Mum received were excellent. Nothing was too much trouble. I would highly recommend The Salisbury Residential Home to family and friends. Thank you for your excellent care for my mum.

Mum went into The Salisbury Residential Home in September 2020 where she has been very happy and always had a smile on her face. When we visited we were treated very well by the friendly staff, the home was spotless and a very safe place for Mum to be. The food was very good and Mum loved her cups of
tea. Any communication was always dealt with quickly and always ready to answer any questions we had. A lovely place, three years of happiness for my mum. We cannot ask for anymore.

My aunt has been in The Salisbury Residential Home for a few years now. The staff have always been kind, caring, fun and active. I am informed of any issues immediately and the staff all bend over backwards to help with anything. Very happy here and wouldn't hesitate to recommend the home. Thank you!

The Salisbury continues to offer my mum an excellent standard of care. The management and staff have been fabulous throughout the past year ensuring we are still able to communicate easily with our loved ones in these difficult times.
We are informed immediately if there are concerns about Mum, and
these are addressed by the staff/management straight away; I am confident that she is safe and secure in their care. The level of cleanliness is outstanding, and it shows by how well the whole team has worked through the pandemic, keeping it totally COVID free - which is absolutely amazing, and I know the team have made sacrifices within their own families, which I cannot thank them enough for.
I love the Facebook page showing photos/videos of the well thought out and creative activities the residents are kept busy and stimulated by taking part in and also celebrating life events.
The management is always visible, and it is great to see them openly praise and reward their brilliant staff.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.983)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.983) out of 10 for The Salisbury Residential Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 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 4.983 for The Salisbury Residential Home is calculated as follows: ( (175 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 178 Ratings = 4.983

  • 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 The Salisbury Residential Home is based on 15 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 30 registered maximum number of service users is 6, which has been reached with 15 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.
