From day one I had a good feeling about Adelaide house. Everyone is very friendly and very accommodating to my mum's needs. The activities are really good, and there is always something going on. The home let us hold a baby shower a few months ago and they went out of their way to help us, so it was
wonderful that our mum could join in.

My mother has been at Adelaide House for 18 months now. Everybody working here is very kind and helpful. They always work with a smile on their faces. As my mother is bed bound everything can be challenging but there are no problems and all tasks are taken on readily.

The staff are all professional, helpful and polite. My mum went through a very traumatic time before moving to the home but she has been treated very well in the time she has spent here. The menus seem nutritional and varied. Overall, I couldn't wish for my mum to be anywhere else.

The staff have always been friendly and helpful, they are very attentive with my dad and treat him with respect and dignity. My dad has a lot of appreciation for the staff due to how well he is looked after and cared for. The only complaint he has is that the food is not always to his liking but overall
the home is excellent. In my opinion, there are plenty of options for meals and the food looks great. I am happy with the care my dad receives and grateful he has such a nice environment to live in.

The interaction with the events coordinators is excellent. The medical support is excellent. The food seems quite variable, sometimes good, sometimes poor. Maybe a chair in the rooms would be good so they don't have to be in bed all the time, if safe.

Reply from Clare Sheehan, Careline Advisor at Adelaide House Care Home

Thank you for your feedback. We are delighted to hear of your positive experience with our events coordinators and medical support team. Your comments about the food are important to us and we will share them with our catering team to ensure consistency and improvements where needed. Regarding the suggestion for a chair in the rooms, we can assure you that all residents do have a chair in their room but we appreciate your input and will assess the feasibility and safety of additional seating options to enhance comfort for visitors. Sometimes we have recommendations from specialist services and they may suggest a resident should have limited time sitting and to rest in bed for periods of time. We do always try to encourage residents out of bed whenever possible as we recognize this is of benefit to their physical and mental health. Your insights help us improve the quality of care and services we provide. Thank you again for taking the time to share your thoughts.

My mother-in-law stayed at Adelaide House for five weeks. The care and attention they gave her was excellent. The home was light and bright. The staff are so caring and friendly. I would not hesitate to recommend Adelaide House to those looking for excellent care for a member of their family.

The staff are so professional and kind. My mum receives a high standard of care. If she is ever unwell or needs anything brought for her, they always let me know, so caring. She is well looked after and so healthy and happy here. Lovely atmosphere, happy (and clean). I really would never want her living
anywhere else! Staff make so much effort to engage with residents and care for their residents.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.732)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.732) out of 10 for Adelaide House Care 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 47 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 47 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 4.732 for Adelaide House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (437 Excellents x 5) + (93 Goods x 4) + (25 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 557 Ratings = 4.732

  • 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 Adelaide House Care Home is based on 47 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 30 registered maximum number of service users is 6, which has been reached with 47 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.

Slawomir Janik

Job Title: Home Manager

What does ‘kindness’ mean to you?


“Treating others the way I would like to be treated. We all have history to share, experiences which make us the way we are. Kindness has many forms, and we always should strive to be kind one to another.”


During his career in the health and care sector, Slawomir has gained a wealth of experience in providing care and nursing support to elderly people to enrich their lives. He is a knowledgeable and dedicated leader who is passionate about delivering the highest standards of care and quality of life for residents.


Talking about how he began his career, Slawomir says:


“I was originally supposed to be a banker in my home country of Poland but didn’t love finance and decided to try something different. I started as a carer in 2005, fell in love with the profession and have never looked back.”


Having now worked in the care sector for many years, Slawomir closely shares HC-One’s vision in aiming to provide the kindest care for each and every resident. He extends this caring approach to his colleagues and works closely with them to deliver care and support to residents in a way that they gain the most benefit, in a warm and welcoming home.


When asked what he enjoys most about his role, Slawomir remarked:


“I love my work, I describe it as my calling, and could not imagine my life any other way. Every day is different and small things lead to huge differences in the lives of my residents.”


Outside of work, Slawomir enjoys a range of hobbies, spending time with his family, travelling and living life to the fullest.
