The staff are great, helpful and can't do enough to help. But while my mum has been in care, a lot of her clothes have gone missing, a skirt has been ruined, and her white underwear is now a tinited pink, which is letting the home down. The staff did all they could to find the items, but with no luck.
Parkin was good and Covid tests etc. Very, well done.

Reply from Alison Reijman, PR Coordinator at Springfield Nursing Home

Thank you for your very kind words about Springfield Nursing Home. It was a pleasure to care for your Mum during her stay with us. However, we do apologise for the issues regarding her clothes. We would really appreciate you calling us at your convenience so we can discuss further with you the missing items and see if we can locate them.

My wife spent many weeks in Springfield following her placement by the hospital. My personal experience was limited to two hour-long visits per week. At these visits, I found the staff helpful and experienced no problems. My wife did not raise any issues about her care, and although she would have preferred
to have been at home with me, her stay at Springfield seems to have been the next best experience for her. I would like to pass on my thanks to all those involved.

At Springfield for nearly four weeks, receiving rehab care following brain surgery.
Carers were all very friendly and helpful.
Room was adequate and kept very clean.
Food was excellent, and a varied menu was provided.
Good physio and occupational therapy support to help me get back home.

Having spent three months here, I can only thank all staff - ie, management/carers/rehab team for their treatment - their kind and thoughtful treatment. That is requests dealt with promptly and with a smile. A friendly greeting always, and help when needed.

My 6-weeks at a care home were a new experience for me at 89, and I was pleasantly surprised at the organisation of the care and support I was given. The staff were kind and friendly, nothing was too much trouble for them. Spent my birthday at the home and enjoyed it. Strict lockdown rules were observed
while I was there, and despite being confined to my room never felt lonely. On the whole, the food was good but meals too large and often nearly cold.

Reply from Alison Reijman, PR Coordinator at Springfield Nursing Home

Thank you so much for your feedback about your stay at Springfield Nursing Home. We are so glad you enjoyed your birthday with us, and you were happy with the way we looked after you during your six weeks with us. We are sorry to hear that food was cold and the meals too large. We will speak to our chefs about this to ensure they are aware and take action to prevent this from happening again. All our residents and patients have different size meals, but we encourage everyone to talk to us if they are unhappy about anything so that we can put it right straight away.

My stay was very helpful. Everyone helped me to walk again. Going out for a BBQ in the grounds made a change from the four walls of the room. All the staff made my 5-weeks stay go so quickly, and with all the care and help, I can not walk again and go back home. I have always been into the nursing home
to visit, nit I have seen the other side. Thank you to all the hard-working staff.

During these difficult times, "Springfield" staff made every effort to protect their residents from Covid, but also to allow two relatives to visit safely. We were very grateful for this, as we had, had only phone contact previously.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.670)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.670) out of 10 for Springfield Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 41 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 40 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 4.670 for Springfield Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (346 Excellents x 5) + (97 Goods x 4) + (23 Satisfactorys x 3) + (4 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 470 Ratings = 4.67

  • 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 Springfield Nursing Home is based on 40 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 62 registered maximum number of service users is 12.4, which has been reached with 40 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.

Tom

Tom Langley

Job Title: Deputy Manager

Joined: 2024

I'm Tom, and I am the deputy manager at Springfield Nursing Home where I have recently joined at the end of 2024.


My healthcare career began when I was 18 as a care assistant in a nursing home and a specialist dementia home, and I progressed to a nurse some years later. My experience in emergency nursing and community nursing has been invaluable to my role in management, and I continuously strive to develop my own skills further.


I am proud to be part of such an exceptional team that always has the resident's interests at heart. The values set out by Hartford Care are reflected wonderfully in the day-to-day lives of the residents here at Springfield and I feel privileged to play a role in that journey every day.
