Simply put they have been amazing. My mum was in another very swanky care home where she was bedbound and I was told that she would never walk again. As soon as we transferred her to Footherley Hall they had her up in a special chair and immediately set about getting her to first be able to sit, then
stand and now walk. My Mum’s progress there has been nothing short of a miracle. The care, attention and love my Mum receives has to be seen to be appreciated. Every single member of staff knows her name and now that we are allowed to visit, our names. They show wonderful respect to my Mum but they always make her smile and laugh. They have a wonderful and warm caring attitude and nothing is too much trouble. Yes, it isn’t as flash as the previous care home but the extraordinary level of care more than makeup for it. From the manager, the assistant manager, the cleaners and receptionists they are all very special. Each and every one of the lovely carers is a real credit.

Reply from Natalia Tobajas, Communications Manager at Christ the King Footherley Hall

Thank you very much for your kind words. It is really comforting to read your words and feel your gratitude for the entire team at Footherley Hall. We are a big family and all our residents are part too, from the first day they spend with us. Their wellbeing is always the priority for us at Sisters Hospitallers, and your words give us more energy and motivation to keep doing what we do best: bring hospitality to everyone in need.

Like most people I carried out due diligence on all surrounding care homes, within a 10-mile radius, some newly opened and some well established and choose Footherley Hall and am so happy that I did. My wife became a resident in May 2020. The most difficult period for everybody, because of COVID. It
has proven to be a very wise decision. Even though she had to go through isolation for the first two weeks, I knew from the first day she was in good and caring hands. The management and staff have been outstanding in their care and understanding of her needs. She has settled well, and the facilities such as beautiful gardens and spotless accommodation and a close supporting programme of activities have all contributed to her feeling safe and secure and involved.

Difficult to imagine, my Aunt has been a resident at Footherley Hall for twelve and a half years. From the very beginning, the staff and sisters succeeded in taking the stress away from my husband and I by giving my Aunt the utmost respect and superior quality of care. In the early days - if weather
permitted - she would be found on a bench in the garden reading the newspaper and enjoying the benefit of the lovely grounds which are for all their residents. Throughout the years she has deteriorated, but she has always been given ongoing appropriate care from the lovely carers. I have nothing but praise for everyone she/we have dealt with over the years, especially so since lockdown in March, as the home has gone above and beyond to ensure both residents and staff have been kept safe at all times.

Both of my parents have been in this care home for over two years. The level of care and attention they receive is outstanding. The home is always spotless. There are beautiful gardens which enable them to get about in the fresh air during the warmer months.

The care my mom has received since she arrived at Footherley on 1.10.18 has been second to none. My mom is safe and settled and this is due to the care and understanding she has received. While it took a long time for mom to settle due to her dementia and strong character, the support and understanding
not only to my mom but to us as a family was instrumental to our confidence that we had made the right decision, mom is now content in as a person with mid-stage Alzheimer's can be. The staff are always welcoming and chatty and we have enjoyed getting to know everyone. We are however missing them all currently due to pandemic and can't wait to be able to visit 'indoors.' Obviously, we have not been able to visit at Footherley due to the current pandemic, my initial worry after finding out they had cases of Covid at the beginning of the pandemic. I am now relieved that mom is safe, this is down to the high standards of cleanliness and care and they now do not have any cases.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.939)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.939) out of 10 for Christ the King Footherley Hall is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 11 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 4.939 for Christ the King Footherley Hall is calculated as follows: ( (124 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 131 Ratings = 4.939

  • 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 Christ the King Footherley Hall is based on 11 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 50 registered maximum number of service users is 10, which has been reached with 11 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.
