Camelot Nursing Home is excellent. The staff are friendly and attentive but most importantly they are kind and caring. They seem to have a good understanding of the needs of people with complex dementia. The facilities are excellent including the food and varied activities.

I am very happy with the overall experience at Camelot Nursing & Residential Care Home. My nan is looked after very well and treated like family by some staff members, something which is very reassuring for me and my family. The home is always clean and laundry is always turned around in a timely manner.
Meals always look very well-presented and edible. From the management, nurses, carers and all the other staff we are always made to feel welcome and there is a great family feel to Camelot.

The care my father in law has come to Camelot Nursing & Residential Care Home for, has improved greatly. Everyone is so caring and friendly. The food is excellent and they maintain his hydration well. It feels like a real home. There is lots of stimulation, which is essential for someone with dementia.
He is happy and content and that is all down to the staff. They are reactive to any changes in his condition and couldn't look after him better. The home is always clean and appears extremely well run.

December is a very busy month. Even so, the staff still gave the residents and visiting families every care and attention, seeing to their needs, making sure there was plenty of activities and social interaction. Christmas Day was like one big happy family with a first class meal full of fun and laughter.

I'm not able to visit that often, but each time I have been here for a few days. I have been so happy with the care my mum is receiving, all of the staff and management are so kind, helpful and always smiling, my dad is very happy she's here. She has been in 2 homes previously and they cannot compare,
5 stars to all the staff.

Excellent place for my Father who moved 300 miles from his home into Camelot. The staff are lovely and have helped him settle and made us welcome at any time. They have dealt calmly and efficiently with care needs.

Unfortunately at the young age of 62 years, Dad required nursing care due to his Diabetes and other related health conditions. From the moment we entered the building, it felt like home! Dad undoubtedly found it hard to accept how his life had changed so dramatically but with the friendliness and patience
of the staff he settled. Dad had chosen not to receive any further medical treatment which was respected by the staff until the very end. I and the family can't thank the staff enough for the outstanding care and support they gave to all of us especially Dad through a very difficult time. I would not have wanted him to have been anywhere else!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.896)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.896) out of 10 for Camelot 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 43 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 43 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 4.896 for Camelot Nursing & Residential Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (458 Excellents x 5) + (53 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 511 Ratings = 4.896

  • 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 Camelot Nursing & Residential Care Home is based on 43 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 36 registered maximum number of service users is 7.2, which has been reached with 43 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.
