I would like to thank all the staff for looking after my mum in her last few months.
I live in Spain but visited regularly, nothing was too much trouble and everything was dealt with swiftly and with genuine affection.
On my daily phone calls, someone always kept me up to date and I spoke on the phone
every week.
Thank you once again.

My Mum was welcomed to Three Corners in December 2014 but sadly passed away in August 2018. In all that time the standard of care and attention did not waver from being excellent. I can confidently say that her stay there prolonged her life substantially. I do not have anything negative to say about
Three Corners, only praise and I would highly recommend them.

Welcoming, cheerful and friendly staff. A very caring place to spend your days when you are no longer able to maintain an independent life in your own home. The meals are tasty and well presented. Nothing is too much trouble for the nurses, carers and office staff who work here.

The service user since being in the care of Three Corners has just been left to lay in her bed day and night. There was little or no attempt to provide physio to strengthen her core.
The TV isn't in a place that she could watch it or even hear it. She isn't facing out of a window. The activity sheet
didn't show what anyone had even chatted to her for days. Her fingernails were so filthy for the second time we noticed. The bed had faeces on it.

Reply from Tracy Lowe, Office Manager & Company Secretary at Three Corners

We are sorry to see these concerns expressed and it is very unusual for us to receive such comments. Many of the comments had been discussed previously with the reviewer and various changes made including moving the bed to face the window and see the TV. A physio was seen on 24/05, 27/06 and again 04/07. We have a full activities programme that we try to encourage all residents to participate in. However, some residents prefer not to or are not able to participate.
Nurses, carers and also domestic staff visit all residents many times a day and all care is carefully documented by staff and for maintaining the privacy and dignity of the residents in our care, this documentation is kept on a computer and not in their rooms for anyone who happens to be visiting to view. This private, confidential information would only be made available to the Power of Attorney for health and welfare and relevant health professionals.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

I would highly recommend this nursing home. My nan is a resident there, I could talk a lot about the different things they do, but in the end, you judge a place on how well my nan is looking and how she is in herself. Before she went into the home her health and wellbeing wasn't good and she didn't
look too good. Now, with their care, she consistently looks much better, her wellbeing is much better and she is able to interact in a positive way with myself or my son or dogs when I bring them. The staff have remained the same over a long period of time and are always welcoming which is a good sign. There is lots going on there and my nan spends time in the day room which is positive as she was previously quite shy. My family and in particular mum do not have to worry about my nan knowing she is well cared for. Thank you.

The staff were really loving and caring, nothing was too much trouble and really felt happy about the wonderful care with the staff popping in to have a chat. They made her birthdays so special for her and the family. The nurse by coming to the final stage was so lovely and helped the family through
the sad time. We were so grateful to them all.

Mum had to go in for respite and the confidence she has got from the very caring staff at Three Corners has meant she has now gone into a residential care home near me.
Thanks to the care we now have mum back.

My dad was at Three Corners for approximately one year. He suffered from Lewy Body dementia, a difficult condition, but the care he received was excellent. The staff were wonderful and he loved them - his face lit up when they walked into the room. They were also so supportive of my mum, and to the
rest of the family when we 'phoned or visited - we were quite overwhelmed with their kindness. Our sincere thanks go to all the staff for their hard work and compassion, which was greatly appreciated and helped us hugely through a very hard time.

I found Three Corners Nursing Home very friendly. The staff are very helpful and nothing is to much trouble. The food was very good with a wide choice of menu.
There was a good choice of activities and entertainment for the residents. I felt that my mother was being well looked after with an excellent
standard of care and support.
I would recommend this nursing home to anyone who may need it.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.546)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.546) out of 10 for Three Corners is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.5 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 26 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 4.546 for Three Corners is calculated as follows: ( (227 Excellents x 5) + (66 Goods x 4) + (22 Satisfactorys x 3) + (6 Poors x 2) + (5 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 326 Ratings = 4.546

  • 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 Three Corners is based on 26 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 41 registered maximum number of service users is 8.2, which has been reached with 26 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.
