My mother had her 90th Birthday this month. I discussed this with the senior managers at the care home, who exceeded all expectations by supporting us with a party at a weekend so that a small group of relatives and friends could attend (and even provided a cake). They also had an internal party on
the day of the Birthday as well, as it was not possible for some key family to attend.

Reply from Jayne Wardell, Home Manager at St Georges Court

Thankyou so much for your positive feedback and we are thrilled the party was a success. It's so important to celebrate people's Milestones!We shall pass your feedback onto the team.

I was so pleased to see my dear friend being so well cared for in this lovely home. It really is just the right place for her and she seems very happy and has settled in very well. She tells me that the staff are very caring and she enjoys the daily activities and entertainment.
It all looks very
clean and is a friendly, comfortable environment. She didn't complain about anything at all and she is not always the easiest person to please!

I come here about 3 times a week to see my dad. I have found St Georges Court is all round excellent. The nurses and carers are fantastic with dad. It's a lively atmosphere and they get dad involved with activities, he's not just stuck in his bed. My dad is often in the lounge listening to music, watching
TV with other residents.

My father who was suffering from Alzheimer's before his death was looked after with extreme respect, care, and kindness. St George's is always spotlessly clean and the staff could not be more friendly or helpful.
We could not have asked for a better place for our dear dad to spend his final days.

Lovely care home, well organised and managed. The team are very kind and caring, but the CQC rating does not show the true side of St George's Court. The level of care respect and compassion that is given to my partner's cousin in the final months was second to none. We would recommend this lovely home.

Was worried about the CQC rating at first but St Georges Court is a lovely care home. Very clean, no odour at all. The staff are kind and caring to not only my cousin but all the family. The home have lots of entertainment and craft activities. The manager is very friendly and the home is well-led.
We would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a care home. The home has parking and is in the centre of Cambridge.

From the moment I walk into the home, I know by the little details that he is in the right place.
I feel assured that he is being looked after so well, with his best interest at heart.
A big thank you to all the

Had the pleasure of attending this care facility as I have done on numerous occasions this year and I can not express how impressive it is. The staff are friendly but professional and always very caring. Several times I witnessed real compassion from the staff who had not seen me enter the room, so
I know it's all genuine. The place is clean and warm and has a very nice, friendly and caring atmosphere.
So glad we got Nanna in here, anyone thinking of using this facility would not be disappointed.
Thank you everyone.

The care home taking wonderful care of my grandma. It feels like one big, happy family. The staff are always friendly, helpful, and eager to assist both visitors and residents alike.
The home offers a variety of activities throughout the week, along with regular entertainment, and it's always kept
spotless. The food is excellent, and when I leave after visiting Grandma, I feel completely reassured knowing she is receiving the best care.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.775)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.775) out of 10 for St Georges Court is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 28 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 4.775 for St Georges Court is calculated as follows: ( (271 Excellents x 5) + (38 Goods x 4) + (11 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 324 Ratings = 4.775

  • 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 Georges Court 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 76 registered maximum number of service users is 15.2, 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.
