My father was a resident a Fallowfield for the last six months of his life. We couldn't have been happier with the care he received and the support we received. Everyone was always so helpful and willing to take the time to answer our smallest question. Dad was always clean and comfortable and very
well fed.

My mum has been a resident at Fairlight & Fallowfield since September 2015. I have always found staff caring and helpful. The entertainment staff are amazing, enthusiastic and varied activities are encouraged.
Working within the NHS, I am very aware of the difficulty in looking after a group of elderly
residents.
The staff at Fairlight & Fallowfield are amazing and genuinely care, down to the kitchen and cleaning staff.

Since mother has been in the home, she has been well cared for. The carers show genuine affection towards her. Her care needs are met and she is very happy as is her family.

Having travelled two hundred and fifty miles I was impressed at first sight with the cheerful, friendly and active staffing. My father was greeted with a bright and friendly attitude. His assistance call button was answered rapidly at all times. An outstanding care home, the supervisors were able to
discuss useful changes to the care plans.

Fairlight residential home provided excellent care for my mother who was a resident from January 2015 until her death in March 2018. During her time there, she received a very high level of supportive care and interest in all her areas of need. The staff are exceptional. They provide professional, considerate
and dignified high-quality care.
The food was always varied with a choice of high-quality home cooked meals and snacks. The varied activities stimulated and entertained residents and my mother enjoyed participating in these. During her final days, the attention and care she received went beyond my expectations and staff made us feel she was in the best place to end her days.

My friend of 40 years has resided here for the past year. He is generally kept clean and reasonably tidy, better as of late. The home is clean and tidy with very large grounds, which are well tended. Disappointed with communication and being kept informed or being able to speak with the person responsible
in order to get a problem resolved.

The staff have been excellent during the settling in period for my parents and their experience has been very supportive to the whole family. Staff are respectful and caring with a good sense of humour. During periods of ill health, they respond appropriately and engage external medical support when
necessary. Staff work as a team and management is "hands on". They are perceptive and knowledgeable about my parents.


I feel very much at home and relaxed when visiting. I visit regularly and am made to feel welcome. I have absolutely no concerns about Fairlight and trust them entirely to provide a safe, caring and respectful environment for my parents.

I visit the residential home on a monthly basis. The volunteer work I do is with the activities lady.
She works extremely hard and is able to keep most of the residents stimulated.
When I go I do arts and crafts with the residents. Those that join in all seem to enjoy their time with us.
The atmosphere
is good as in the caring staff.
It's not what I have in mind for my winter years, but if it came to it, I'm sure my children would consider a home like this for me.

My mother has been a resident for over 4 years. Myself and family are very satisfied with the care received. The staff look after my mother really well and she is very fond of them. The care home is very clean and the grounds and building well maintained. Health records are kept up to date and any concerns
are dealt with quickly. There are regular social activities and entertainment in the home.
Menus are varied. Hot and cold drinks are regularly offered during the day.

My mother has been a resident at Fairlight for over six years more and although she suffers from dementia, she appears to be happy there From what I have observed, the level of care is very good and the staff are very good at building relationships with the residents.
I feel that overall, my mother
is well looked after and made to feel part of a family.

From the grand piano and aquarium in the lounge to the large, well-kept garden, library and pleasant hard working staff, the facilities are first class. Visiting entertainers on a regular basis. Regular outings to the theatre and placed of interest, including a pub meal, wheelchair residents also welcome
to outings. Always a choice for all meals, in a well serviced dining room or your own room if required. Meals are excellent and well presented, daily activities carried out by a dedicated team with various games, singing etc. What is here not to like.

I am a retired Macmillan nurse. When working I visited many homes. Now I visit the sick of my parish. I have been visiting one man over the period of a year. The home has never smelt of urine or other poor smells. The care given to the patient was exemplary. He was never dirty or uncared for.
H, now dying, looks serene, clean and comfortable. Thank you for your good care.

The staff are endlessly pleasant, patient and polite, sometimes under difficult circumstances. I am kept up to date with all details concerning my mother's health and well being. The staff make a point of talking to all the residents and including them in all the activities. This gives a very homely
feel, which I think is appreciated by the residents. The residents are treated well and with dignity. There are plenty of activities and outings. The buildings are well kept and there seems to be a rolling programme of decorating and refurbishment, which I hope will get as far as the lounge area soon. The gardens are lovely. The security seems to be good. I have had no complaints about the food, although I have never been there at meal times. This is one of the dearer care homes we looked at but it covers all the areas that are important to us very well and provides value for money.

My mum has been at Fairlight & Fallowfield for two and a half years. The staff immediately made her feel welcome and although it took a while for her to settle the staff were patient and understanding. She is no longer able to care for herself and is immobile but always cared for with great respect.
Most Occasions I visit three four times week members of staff are often interacting by looking at books, playing games or another activity with the residents. Whenever I leave I feel my mum is staying in a homely and loving place that I have full trust and confidence in.

Current Review Score: 8.2 (8.200)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.2 (8.200) out of 10 for Fallowfield 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 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.2 out of 5 from 1 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 5.000 for Fallowfield is calculated as follows: ( (12 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 5

  • 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 3.2 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Fallowfield is based on 1 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 = 3

    • 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 25 registered maximum number of service users is 5. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 5 = 0.2

  • 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.
