In the years that Mum has been resident at St James we as a family are delighted at the care and consideration she has received. Given that Mum was admitted 3 years ago for end-of-life care, it is testament to the care she has received that she is still enjoying as good a quality of life as is possible
given her age and underlying health conditions. One of the most noticeable indicators is the rapport she has with the staff and the obvious affection she displays for them.

Reply from Andrea Pattison, -Owner Manager at St Ronans Nursing & Residential Care Home

We absolutely love having your wonderful mum with us and are privileged that she came to stay at St Ronan's. We will pass on your lovely review to the team, with best wishes from everyone at St Ronan's.

My mum passed away with you yesterday and I would just like to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the most fantastic love and care you showed her and my husband and I throughout the 21 months she was with you. Thank you doesn't seem anywhere near enough, but thank you! For giving her dignity,
peace and a beautiful passing. My love and respect to you all always.

Can't really fault the place, standard of care, and highly recommended. They take care of both my parents, and from day one, have bent over backwards to make us feel welcome. You've certainly taken a load off my and my sibling's shoulders.

The staff have been absolutely amazing with my nan; she’s been a bit wobbly on her feet (as expected, she’s 90 and very stubborn!) The way we are treated as a family is absolutely unbelievable. You are treated as part of the St Ronans family, and the care my nan receives is absolutely outstanding. I
can’t thank the managers enough for everything they do for my nan! From the manager to everyone else, thank you guys so much for making my nan safe, happy and loved.

Since my husband has been at St Ronans, the whole team have been very welcoming and caring towards myself and my husband. We are kept up to date on all care needs and changes during the Covid pandemic. Seeing pictures on Facebook gives us an insight into home life and the activities that are provided.

We would like to thank all the staff for the care given to her over the last few months. Following a fall and admission to the hospital, she needed to be transferred to somewhere that could provide for her extensive needs. She certainly has landed in a care home that provides the very best, sympathetic,
loving care they can offer.
The staff are always putting us at ease knowing she is well cared for.
Thank you.

Reply from Andrea Pattison, -Owner Manager at St Ronans Nursing & Residential Care Home

Thank you very much for your kind words; they really mean a lot to the team. We love having your loved one with us and would like to thank you for letting us look after her. Thank you again. With best wishes from St Ronans.

The staff are lovely, and the care is really good; I can’t fault them at all. Mum seems happy and settled and doesn’t want to leave. The staff ensure she is always comfortable and see to her every need.

My dear wife was a resident for just over two years. Sadly she has just passed away, and although I have favourable reviewed St Ronans in the past, I am compelled to submit another, I am impressed with the care given to her in her final hours. Also because of the way the staff there have responded to
the challenges facing them by the impact of Covid-19. Thankfully my wife did not suffer from the virus, but the professionalism balanced by the empathy shown me on her last day has rendered me forever grateful. During her stay, I have forged friendships that will last and gained an admiration for those who work in this neglected sector that will likewise endure the test of time. Were there some small hiccups along the way, of course, there were, but always the staff were receptive and welcoming, little issues solved - the true test of a well-run ship. I am and will continue to be a friend of the home and support the incredible staff, whatever the colour of their uniform.

Reply from Lynn Taylor, Registered Manager at St Ronans Nursing & Residential Care Home

Thank you for this lovely review. Our vision at "St Ronans is a home where we will take care of you like you’re our family" and so we are so pleased you want to continue to be involved in St Ronans as you are a big part of our family. We all miss your lovely wife. We are so proud of all our staff and the ways they have adapted to the challenges they have faced from the corona virus. We have been missing our families and friends and can’t wait to have them back to visit us. We are all sending you our love at this difficult time.

A faultless provision of kindness, care and compassion. All staff are exceptional and hard working.
Much laughter is heard when visiting from both residents and staff.
I never wanted my mother to leave her home for a nursing home but as I have m.s. I was unable to care for her myself. My partner and
I retired after 50 years of qualified nursing experience between us. Highly rated nursing home.

My husband has been in St Ronans since December 2017.
We have found the staff to be caring, kind and helpful, without exception.
As my husband's condition has deteriorated they have been very accommodating about our large family's frequent visits, supplying tea, coffee and biscuits.

Our dear mum/grandma spent two years within this amazing environment. She was loved/nurtured and cared for in a homely supportive place which felt like part of an extended family. Such a precious place for mum with exceptional people working there.

Current Review Score: 8.4 (8.437)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.4 (8.437) out of 10 for St Ronans Nursing & Residential Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 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 4.861 for St Ronans Nursing & Residential Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (31 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 36 Ratings = 4.861

  • 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 3.576 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for St Ronans Nursing & Residential 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 46 registered maximum number of service users is 9.2. 3 Positive Reviews ÷ 9.2 = 0.326

  • 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.
