Having look at 10 care homes in the area one Sunday, I was pleased St Jude's had a vacancy for my 86 year old husband. St Jude's is not like a 5 star hotel, it is more homely and the staff know how to treat their clients with kindness. My husband, who had dementia, was difficult at the beginning of
his stay, but all the carers were so unbelievably patient. My husband died on 14th November.
If I need a care home, St Jude's would be the first and only one I would choose.

Thank you very much for your lovely review and we are glad you were pleased with the service delivered to your husband. The team will be happy to read your review.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5

Overall, the family and friends of my brother were very pleased with virtually all aspects of his care at St Jude's. He could be awkward and demanding at times but despite this, with a small number of exceptions, nearly all of the staff were friendly and courteous to him at all times. It was occasionally
a bit noisy, with banging doors, etc. The management and nursing staff were very helpful, although there were occasional difficulties of communication due to staff not being native English speakers.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review and we have taken your comments on board. We are glad you were happy with the care delivered to your brother which the team will be happy to read.

Staff very caring, Mum feels lonely though. Given it's £8,000 per month before discount, I wonder how much staff get paid. We often get bills for shower gel and shampoo and think a, is it being used? b, why not just include it in the costs.

Reply from Patricia Fyfe, Manager at St Jude's Nursing Home

Thank you very much for your review and your comments have been noted and will be addressed. We shall explore why mum feels lonely and I'm sure the social activity team will be in touch with you to see how we can alleviate the loneliness. With regards toiletries this is actually on the agenda for the next provider meeting so watch this space. Thank you also for acknowledging how caring the staff are, they are wonderful and so willing to please.

My brother has been cared for by St Jude's Nursing Home since January 2024 and I am delighted to say that my first impression has not changed, it is a happy nursing home. The interactions by staff with my brother have always been kindly, he has limited cognition my observations is that he is clean and
well cared for and he appears content, which is important to me. The manager and staff are always approachable, when I have needed to check any details relating to my brother, they are always forthcoming and when he has become unwell, they respond rapidly to his needs. I am reassured that my brother is safe at St Jude's.

A friendly, welcoming nursing home where we all feel extremely comfortable. All staff go above and beyond when caring for my father. They have got to know him so well, even though he has Dementia and Parkinson's. All his needs are met with care and kindness. We are very pleased we found this home due
to its spacious, homely feel and calming atmosphere.

Mum was moved directly from the hospital to the nursing home following a heart attack. Previously in a care home that could not supply nursing. She is a lot happier and appears more comfortable and alert here. She loves her room and engages well with the staff.

The overall standard of the care home including the room is very good. Rooms, bedding and furniture are clean and fairly well maintained. The home is secure and I feel that my dad is kept safe in relation to his condition and abilities. The staff are warm and welcoming and attentive. They are always
readily available to contact by phone and email and keep us updated/informed of Dad's health. The food and facilities are of a good standard and Christmas dinner/party was laid on for residents.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.406)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.406) out of 10 for St Jude's Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.4 out of 5 from 29 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 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 4.406 for St Jude's Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (192 Excellents x 5) + (122 Goods x 4) + (15 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (12 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 342 Ratings = 4.406

  • 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 St Jude's Nursing Home is based on 27 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 27 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.
