On the day I found out my lovely mum had to go into residential care I was heartbroken. All my fears and tears subsided as I got to know the staff at Lumley Court. Mum has a lovely room with her own possessions around her. Mum has always taken a pride in her appearance and the staff make sure her nails
are painted and her outfits are colour-matched. She is always clean and tidy. Nothing is too much trouble for any of the staff at Lumley Court and our concerns are listened to and dealt with quickly. The staff are kind, amazing and very supportive. They can lighten the mood with a laugh and a smile.

I can't really fault the level of care Mam gets, some staff are good with her and others excellent. Some staff treat family members more favourably than others and some are unprofessional and rude.
The rooms could do with being refreshed and repainted/updated. Since the new activities staff member
joined, activities have improved and have been more tailored for different levels of dementia patients. Safety/security is of a concern as residents should not be able to get off the unit and this has happened on several occasions.

Reply from Bethany Morrow, Home Manager at Lumley Court

2022 was a bad year but since January 2023 and new management, the home has become a lot better.
All the carers go out of their way to help you.

From the moment of admission, I felt extremely comfortable leaving my mother here. The staff have gone above and beyond to accommodate both my mother and myself. The level of care is outstanding. The bedrooms are a little shabby but satisfactory for what is needed. In a short time, I feel like more
has been done here than in hospital.

The care and compassion from all the staff is excellent. All the staff are friendly to us when we visit. The feeling when you walk in is calming and inviting. The staff treat all residents with the highest possible level of extraordinary care. Nothing is too much trouble. We know we have chosen the
right home.

I just want to say the care my mam has had from staff in Lumley is fantastic. If I have had a problem, I know I can go to the staff, and it's sorted straight away. She is now near the end of her life, and the staff are still there for her and the family. I cannot fault them one bit, making my mam so
comfortable and there for when we need them.

Following an issue with my father's personal hygiene and some communication problems, I raised the concerns surrounding these with Lumley Court's manager. She listened to my concerns and suggestions and was very prompt and took action straight away. Dad's care package was updated, and an agreed action
plan was put into place between the care staff and family members to help dad be more comfortable. The manager and senior staff gave dad and family their support and I thank them for their understanding.

My father was in a care home and had a stroke. We were told that they would not be taking him back so we moved him here and he has progressed more than we expected. The staff really do care for the residents. The manner in which they speak to them and handle them is nothing short of respect. My father
is always clean and tidy and shaved and hair washed, sometimes not always wearing someone else's clothing, but we have put this down to various covid problems. There is plenty of entertainment for the residents, always something going on. My father is very happy here and so are we, and couldn't ask for more.

We could not praise enough the staff at the home. Throughout the two years, they cared for our mother; they were so fantastic. From being in the home, she completely blossomed, and she was always happy and well cared for. 100% would (and have) recommend this home to others.

I cannot put into words how happy I am at the service my mam received form this home. Home from home, loving, caring, compassionate and dedicated going beyond the job description, are just a few words of so many I have. I cannot recommend this home enough for your loved ones. My mam regained her life,
and somebody else's! She was so happy and settled from her very first day, and loved being there and the staff loved her back. You would be hard pushed to find a home that gives this level of care on a daily basis.

We had to place Mam in the care home due to her Alzheimer's.
It was a very difficult decision but Mam loves it here.
The staff are lovely.
She is well fed and kept clean.
The family is very pleased with how happy Mam is.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.557)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.557) out of 10 for Lumley Court 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 10 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 4.557 for Lumley Court is calculated as follows: ( (92 Excellents x 5) + (24 Goods x 4) + (11 Satisfactorys x 3) + (4 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 131 Ratings = 4.557

  • 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 Lumley Court is based on 10 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 10 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.
