Since my mum became a resident of this care home, I have found the staff to be extremely helpful and very friendly, any questions I have had they have always answered, I constantly ask mum about the level of care she is receiving and she always gives a positive feedback and says how excellent the staff
are, I would recommend Croftwood to anybody.

Reply from Cheryl Frankland, Manager at Croftwood

Hi Stephen,


Thank you so much for the compliments. We are glad mum is settled in, she's such a lovely lady.
She tells us daily how grateful she is full of the joys, lovely seeing her smile every morning and chatting away to her friends she has made. I will pass on your compliments to the staff, thank you again.

Mum has received excellent care whilst at Croftwood. Staff are exceptionally kind and caring and have worked hard throughout the pandemic to keep residents safe. Mum's appearance is always clean and well-groomed when the family have visited. As a family, we trust the staff and care home.

I'm no expert on care homes, I've only visited one other before Croftwood. The only thing lacking in the Croftwood building is ensuite bathrooms. The staff are great, very caring, and nothing is ever a problem for them. If I ever needed to move into a care home; then I'd be very happy in Croftwood.

Reply from Cheryl Frankland, Manager at Croftwood

Thank you kindly for your lovely comments. I shall share them with our lovely staff. I wish we could accommodate more bathrooms, it would be lovely in rooms, sadly there's not enough space for every room.
I really appreciate you've taken the timeout to write a view about us all.
Thank you again.
Kind regards.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

I was a resident for about 2 to 3 years and I can honestly say that they were the happiest years of my life. The care that I was given was at the highest possible level that they could provide. Whether on days or nights the standard of care was exceptional, nothing was to much trouble. We were all washed
and dressed, then we were all taken to the lounge to watch TV or just there and have a jolly good natter. All this was with a cup of tea or coffee or a soft drink whatever we asked to drink we were given while we waited for are breakfast, lunch, or tea. The 2 lady chefs that work there and the level of food provided was befitting a 5 star mitchellen chef, the food was exceptional and always pipping hot. The home is kept together by an exceptional manager, the manager keeps everything running smoothly, the manager is extremely beautiful and she has a heart of gold, she treats all the residents as if they were members of her own family. I can honestly say that I miss everyone so much.

Reply from Cheryl Frankland, Manager at Croftwood

Thank you so much for your kind comments. All the staff miss you dearly too.
Croftwood hope's your keeping safe and well in your home.
Such lovely comments.
Take Care,
Regards.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.634)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.634) out of 10 for Croftwood is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.6 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 4.634 for Croftwood is calculated as follows: ( (88 Excellents x 5) + (38 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 131 Ratings = 4.634

  • 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 Croftwood 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 47 registered maximum number of service users is 9.4, 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.
