I visit my Nan twice a week, she's always happy. Staff are very pleasant and helpful. The food choice is good. She will never starve. I feel she is well looked after.

Redmount cared for my mother for 6 years. She was well looked after and benefited greatly from the care provided by the kind and professional staff. The activities organised by Redmount were enjoyed by her and made a difference. As her condition deteriorated and her behaviour became more challenging,
we worked with the team to allow her to stay there and she had one to one care on a regular basis to stimulate her mentally.


Two very special ladies took a particular part in this and taught me how to reach her, even in the latter stages of her condition. They managed to put her in front of the condition and you could at times forget the dementia which is amazing. Her care at the end was of the best and Redmount looked after us as the family too. Thank you for everything you did for Mum over the last six years.

My mother suffered from dementia and spent six years at Redmount Nursing & Residential Home.
I have nothing but admiration for the staff who looked after her. They were patient, kind and thoughtful throughout, despite having many calls on their time they cared or her with understanding and sympathy.
During the more challenging times, they did their best even though it was very difficult. I will always be grateful to them.

The standard of care, commitment, giving medication, willingness to try alternatives and kind and thoughtful treatment of residents has been extraordinarily high from all the staff in Redmount, without exception as observed on my many visits, some overnight in the last 6 years. The staff appear to me
to be all saints with endless patience in the most difficult circumstances and lovely people.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.566)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.566) out of 10 for Redmount Residential Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 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 4.566 for Redmount Residential Home is calculated as follows: ( (141 Excellents x 5) + (39 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) + (6 Poors x 2) + (4 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 196 Ratings = 4.566

  • 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 Redmount Residential Home is based on 15 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 15 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.

I have worked in health and social care for many years, supporting various types of people. Most recently I started working at Redmount Residential Home where me and my team are passionate about providing person centred care which is responsive and inclusive. I belive residents should be at the heart of everything we do and we work hard to develop an open culture where residents, friends and families are involved in people's care.
