We had a home maintenance urgency and my mother-in-law came to The Chanters for respite care while it was all sorted. Words cannot express how wonderful the home, staff and residents are. From walking into the front door the feeling you get is so warm and welcoming, we think you're all fabulous and
do a fantastic job.

Wonderful hard-working staff. They have really looked after mum with kindness and compassion. They have a great sense of fun and are always cheerful. They keep us updated on how she is and are very patient with our constant questioning. Amazing team.

My husband came into your care home for two weeks and I can truthfully say he was well cared for. Clean clothes on each time I visited and shaven. he joined in the activities and seemed quite at home at Chanters. Well done to all the staff who cared for him and in the future when needed he can come
back to Chanters for another "holiday". Thank you.

Overall we are happy with The Chanters. Mum seems very settled.
However, we would like updates. Appreciate staff are busy but an email, say every two months, with updates and progress for Mum.

Reply from The Chanters Home Manager at The Chanters Care Home

Thank you for your feedback, it is gratefully received as it aids us to improve our practices. Sadly, due to GDPR we are unable to email relating to individual care, however, we do hold 6 monthly reviews involving the families as able.
Following the Covid restriction’s being relaxed, and open visiting commenced, if you would like to book in for a review, it would be our pleasure to accommodate.

I'm hoping to get him in very soon. My husband has mixed dementia. A lovely man, all the staff liked him, a very pleasant guy. I should have left him in longer as he loved it there, he had a 1-week respite stay and now I need more weeks leading to a permanent residency. I have his name on a waiting
list, but there are 4 in front of him. I have cancer so I need the help.
The rooms are lovely and spotless. The staff are lovely and kind, the whole place is superb and where I want my loved one of 60 years to be as soon as possible.

My sister has been in The Chanters Care Home since February 2021 and her care has been great. If I have a question and the person I ask doesn't know they will go and find someone who does. I find it very easy to arrange to visit just a phone call and all is arranged and there are still Covid checks,
which I think is very important.

My husband has only been in the Chanters Care Home for a year and a half. I have had no complaints whatsoever. He is in a very comfortable room and is always clean and cared for. I have no complaints about his care.

My experience is very good, I'm kept informed of any problems. I don't like the appointment system as I'm not local and used to pop in when close, also my mum has lots of great grandchildren some she hasn't met yet and others not seen for over 2 years which she gets very upset about. Hopefully, that
should be sorted soon. Apart from that everything is fine.

My husband was admitted to The Chanters Care Home during the pandemic, from what I have seen I’m happy with the way he is being cared for but can’t comment on the facilities etc because I can only see him in his room and haven’t seen anywhere else. I’m also not familiar with the staff because I don’t
see them for long. I have put ratings in for everything but as I said before I don’t really think I can comment on everything as I don’t know.

Thank you so much for your comments on the care, I will pass these over to the staff, it's always nice to receive positive feedback. Hopefully, with the restrictions being eased following the pandemic, you will gain a better view of the services we provide on future visits. Many thanks for your continued support.

Sadly my mum passed away in The Chanters care home last week. I cannot thank the management and staff enough for all the love care and attention they have given to her in the last twelve months, an excellent care plan was put in place immediately. Mum had very severe dementia and was always treated
with dignity and respect. All staff are professional, welcoming and caring to all residents, family and friends.

We owe a debt of gratitude to all the staff team at The Chanters Care Home for their care for residents and their determination to maintain a happy, stimulating environment for them despite the challenges of the past months. Since the re-opening of the home for planned visits by family and friends
I have been impressed by the safeguarding measures in place and the consistency in standards evident throughout. Members of the team have been well trained in the procedures for welcoming visitors including testing, recording data and issuing correct personal protective equipment, tedious at times but always carried out with a smile and humour! It is wonderful to see the reaction of our family members to having a visitor in their room again. A long-awaited blessing.
I, like many others, hope that all our highly skilled and compassionate social care workers will finally receive the professional and financial recognition they deserve. Thank you.

Since my father entered the care home all the staff members I have spoken to have been very friendly and helpful. They have always tried to give as much information as possible on Dad's condition and welfare, especially important under the current lock-down situation, where visiting is limited.

The staff of The Chanters Care Home are always professional with care and support both to my mother and also to me. During this very difficult pandemic time, I have been able to keep in touch with my mother by email, letter and video phone contact, all have proven to be a reassurance and comfort. I
cannot thank The Chanters staff and management team enough for their kindness, loyalty and friendship. I would definitely recommend The Chanters Care Home.

My Mum has had the most professional, outstanding and wonderful care from the staff at The Chanters Care Home.
The last few weeks have been a very difficult time for Mum and me, but we have been surrounded by warmth and understanding and treated with unfailing dignity and compassion.
When the world
seems to be a grim and joyless place, such care warms the soul.
I will always remember and be grateful for the care my Mum has had and for the support given to me.

Mum came for a weeks respite care. We were very impressed with the staff we first met during the initial assessment and during her stay,
The home appeared very well run, clean and hospitable. She very much enjoyed her stay and hopefully will be able to return.

Current Review Score: 8.6 (8.597)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.6 (8.597) out of 10 for The Chanters Care 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 3 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.6 out of 5 from 3 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 4.972 for The Chanters Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (35 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 36 Ratings = 4.972

  • 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 3.625 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Chanters Care Home is based on 3 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 = 3.25

    • 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. 3 Positive Reviews ÷ 8 = 0.375

  • 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.
