My wife is being well cared for in a clean, friendly environment. The staff is kind and attentive and in normal times there are plenty of activities to keep residents entertained. The food is very good. precautions taken during the COVID-19 pandemic have been excellent. My only complaint is the vast
difference in fees paid between the local authority and self-funding residents.

My gran means the world to me and it is a huge comfort to know that she is being looked after in a safe, clean and warm environment.
Having understanding staff is most important. The staff are always welcoming and bringing my daughter to see my gran often generates interests from other residents and
it is just like having lots of grans and granddads! It is certainly a home-from-home atmosphere and the activities keep the residents engaged and happy. Thank you.

Mum has only been at Codnor Park Residential Home since early January, but she has been very happy with the care she has received. Unfortunately, she has not had the opportunity to experience all the home has to offer as yet.

Thank you for taking the time to review Codnor Park and we look forward to your mum utilising all the facilities we have.

Having to put my Mammar in respite, I was so nervous but the staff reassured me everything was okay. As soon as I arrived my Mammar was greeted with a warm meal and comfort. The staff were very helpful, a lovely, clean environment. I visited her a few days later and she was very settled and comfortable.
The members of staff got her involved in a sing and dance activity. They prompted/assisted in taking medication happily.

Impressed by the immediate attention we all received in arrival before entering the building and the professional and friendly treatment on entering the building. We found the atmosphere very home from home. The dining room is light and airy and the bedrooms very well decorated. Credit due to all the
staff. Now I can relax knowing my mum is being well cared for.

The staff are always friendly and helpful. When I visit mum I know that I am always welcome, I can turn up at any time and the staff are always the same - welcoming.
My mother is very happy here and it's reassuring to know she is safe, warm, well-fed, cared for and secure.
It's difficult to put
one's mum into care but the staff have made it easier by their positive attitude and natural caring ways.

Residents are well looked after, fed and entertained. As visitors we are always welcomed and accommodated. Overall very good care and cleanliness. Sometimes staff are stretched and the overall standard of care drops. Some staff are not always patient with residents.

My mam is happy at Codnor Park as she is unable to care for herself, she says they look after here well (the staff) she likes the food, and the activities. She also says there's no place like home, but if you have to be anywhere but home this is ok to be , she would recommend it to anyone.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.842)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.842) out of 10 for Codnor Park Residential Home 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 46 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 46 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 4.842 for Codnor Park Residential Home is calculated as follows: ( (462 Excellents x 5) + (80 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 545 Ratings = 4.842

  • 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 Codnor Park Residential Home is based on 46 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 40 registered maximum number of service users is 8, which has been reached with 46 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.

Sarah Meakin

Job Title: Registered Manager

Joined: 2021

I am Registered Manager of both Codnor Park Care Home and The Firs Nursing Home.


I love the feeling of going home knowing that something that I have been able to do has had a massive positive impact on the people living in our home.


The residents drive my passion. I have so much love for them, seeing them smile and enjoy living at the home and being able to support people who are on end of life care, knowing that you have provided exactly what they have needed in that time.


I often forget I’m at work because it feels like home. The people around are like family and I love them all dearly.
One day we will be old and I’d like to know that there is someone to fight for me the way I fight for them.
