A lot of time and money and disruption over more than 4 months has been involved in refurbishment here and it's still ongoing. However I'm disappointed that money hasn't been spent on employing more care staff.
My aunt has assisted feeding, yet when I was visiting her, coffee was brought without sugar
(she's been there over 3 years so it should be routine); and no one arrived to assist, or to check we were OK helping her. If I'd not been there, it would have been left on a table she can't see or reach to go cold.
Answer to call bell is way too long, resulting in residents having an accident when they need toilet assistance.
Activities in the lounge are for a small number of residents who are able to access them. A nice activity would be for someone simply to visit the very frail and sit with them for companionship.

Reply from Lisa Henderson, Customer Care Advisor at Elm View Care Home

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We appreciate that refurbishment can be disruptive and we have tried our best to minimise the impact on our residents during this time. The work is almost complete and we hope our residents will enjoy our newly furbished areas. We have liaised with the home manager who has confirmed that Elm View is currently fully staffed and that our activities programme includes a mix of activities and one to one sessions. The health and wellbeing of our residents is an absolute priority for us and whilst we can't discuss specific cases or personal details here, our care home manager would welcome the opportunity to discuss with you the concerns you raise about your relative. You can contact the home directly by calling 01275 872088. Alternatively, you can email feedback@bupa.com with your contact details and the team will be in touch to discuss things further.

My mother has been a resident at Elm View for 4 years now and the care has been wonderful. The new manager is second to none. She is an amazing asset to the home and displays all the qualities one would wish for from a resident's and family member's perspective. She has time to listen, is kind and empathetic
and is always willing to go that extra mile for both resident and their loved ones. A true professional, who is proactive, honest, trusted and considerate. Her staff are also superb - always smiling and welcoming. The home's recent refurbishment makes the place feel more homely.

Reply from Maria Ricketts, Customer Care Adviser at Elm View Care Home

Thank you for your lovely review. We are very happy to hear you can feel at ease with your mother in our care. Please let us know if there is anything we can do to make your loved ones stay as comfortable as possible.

From the moment we looked around we have found this a very welcoming and friendly place. The staff are kind and caring and we are very happy with the care my Mum is receiving. The garden area is delightful, and her room is bright and cheerful.

I chose this care home in the town where I live for a recovery period following a hip replacement operation (I am a fit 88-year-old). I was pleasantly surprised by everything I found here. My room was well equipped and corridors very suitable for tentative walkers on frames and crutches. All the staff
were totally friendly. Food had choices and was always very tasty. Any need was met. Meals could be taken in the bedroom or the dining room. Entertainment was provided in a lounge in the afternoon. I extended my stay by a week so that speaks for itself.

Reply from Grace Langfield, Customer Service Adviser at Elm View Care Home

Thank you for your lovely review. We are really pleased to hear you had such a wonderful experience and felt so at ease whilst in our care. It's great to hear everything from our food, to the entertainment and home facilities were at an excellent standard. Thank you for choosing Elm View for your stay.

The wonderful staff have given the utmost care and attention to my father. He was with you for five and a half months. I’m sad he never got to see the garden or the restaurant, but this can’t be helped. He was so well looked after, and for this, I am eternally grateful. I truly cannot fault you.

Reply from Fran Donno, Customer Service Adviser at Elm View Care Home

Thank you for your kind words. We are glad to help you and your family through such a difficult time, and we hope Elm View care home did everything possible to make the transition as easy as possible. Hopefully, you will go away from this feeling like your loved one received the best possible care.

The best care home my wife has been in over the last 15 years. Staff are all friendly, helpful and caring, the catering staff are excellent as are the cleaners and the laundry staff. The maintenance person is also very good and helpful.

My mum has been in Elm View since November 2022. She is very unwell and bedbound and in the the midst of a very difficult time, the staff at Elm View have been very kind and look after my mum so well. They are also very kind to our family. The food is great and the activities are amazing. It gives me
peace knowing my mum is looked after and cared for here.

My husband has been in Elm View Care Home for 2.5 years. Mostly the care has been very good but due to the staff shortages and agency staff, there have been times I haven't been happy with my husband's care. Not the fault of the staff, the staff have been very kind and supportive to myself and my husband
during some very difficult times.

We appreciate you taking the time to leave us your comments. It is always nice to hear words like “kind” and “supportive” being used to describe our care.

Excellent service and always ready to make the residents comfortable. Whilst singing entertainment does not appeal to my mother as she is profoundly deaf. She is quite happy with the personal contacts from the staff.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.702)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.702) out of 10 for Elm View 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 21 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 20 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 4.702 for Elm View Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (182 Excellents x 5) + (49 Goods x 4) + (10 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 242 Ratings = 4.702

  • 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 Elm View Care Home is based on 20 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 43 registered maximum number of service users is 8.6, which has been reached with 20 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.
