The staff at The Fountains were extremely kind and caring towards my dad - going the extra mile for sure! He was well looked after in every aspect eg provision of meals, medicines and personal care. All carried out very thoughtfully and with a smile! As my dad reached the end of his life he had constant
company from the staff who also took the time to take the phone to him so we could speak to him. As a family we lived a long distance away but I absolutely felt I could entrust my dad to the care of the Fountains team.

My mum has been a resident for four years now and during that time, we have never had cause to complain. The staff are lovely and work extremely hard and the home is very clean. Mum looks well-kept and, although she is unable to communicate properly, always seems happy and content. We are forever grateful
to The Fountains, thank you.

Every single member of staff made Mum's last few days as happy as they could be... you cannot put a price on that! From the bottom of my heart, a massive thank you to each and every one of you! Mum saw the place as her home and she was extremely happy and content being there (always had a massive smile
on her face), that says it all really!

Reply from Katie Robinson, Manager at The Fountains Care Centre

My wife has now been resident at The Fountains for eleven months, and I am very impressed with the care she is receiving. I visit my wife every other day, so I have witnessed on many occasions the warm, friendly family atmosphere that the staff create and maintain. My nephew and niece recently came
down from Scotland to visit their Aunt - they both commented spontaneously on the lovely atmosphere at The Fountains, and the friendly, helpful personalities who greeted them. They both told me they were very happy their Aunt was being properly looked after by such lovely people. In truth the building could probably do with some redecoration, but it is the people inside the building that make it such a great place for my wife to be. The staff are sensitive to my wife's moods, as well as her needs, and try their utmost to help her through each day. They have a very commendable style of caring which has a light touch - focusing on sympathetic support and positive encouragement.

Reply from Katie Robinson, Manager at The Fountains Care Centre

Thank you so much for leaving such an amazing review, as a team I know the staff really do enjoy caring for your wife as well as yourself and Poppy the Shih Tzu as a part of our Fountains Family. Your kind words are very much appreciated and I will of course feed these back to our hardworking and fabulous staff team. Thank you so much for your continued support, and for being an integral part of your wife's care. Without you, the care we provide could not be to the highest standard.

Mum was a member of The Fountains family for 8 years until she passed away and loved it. When we took mum out to get her nails done, or for dinner, or a cake, and she'd had enough she'd ask to go "home" - back to The Fountains. There can be no greater compliment than when a resident calls it home.
Even
when Mum was no longer able to clearly communicate, all of the staff would still involve her in her personal decision-making and activities which was important to us as well as Mum.
We were all made to feel like we were part of The Fountains Family and, during the darkest of times, the staff went above and beyond to make sure we were as well cared for as mum.
Now mum's passed we miss our Fountains Family almost as much as we miss Mum. Thank you for everything and we're so pleased mum always said if she had to go into residential care she wanted it to be The Fountains.

Reply from Katie Robinson, Manager at The Fountains Care Centre

Thank you so much for taking your time to leave such a lovely review, it was the pleasure of The Fountains and the staff team including myself to have been a part of your mum's care journey. As a daughter you really did support the staff and myself to provide Mum care to the highest standard and it was an honour for us all to be a part of Mum's final journey. Yourself, your siblings and your mum will always remain a part of the Fountains family.

My aunt feels comfortable and safe at the home. She is well looked after by the staff and they make sure I am aware of any problems with her care or health. She is a strong character and when I visit, I am always impressed by the good relationship the staff have with her.

Mum has been well looked after being very poorly recently. the Staff have been marvelous and great communication throughout. I feel the home has a lot to contend with and gets no help from the NHS.

My mother is very happy in The Fountains. The building has a shabby exterior but this is more than compensated by the excellent caring staff. The staff worked hard to help my mother regain and retain her mobility. With their help her confidence has improved.

Thank you for taking your time to leave a lovely review, I will of course feed this back to the staff team. Our staff work very hard to support our residents and receiving feedback is very valuable to the staff team.

During June and July my mum had bad back pain and then became unwell with one or two different infections. The staff were brilliant with Mum, helping her cope with her back pain and contacting surgery straight away for antibiotics. The surgery let Mum down but not the staff at The Fountains.

Overall good, clean and tidy. The staff are great especially those around the running of the care home and the staff in the kitchen are great, they do a good job. I have been going to the care home for over a year now and I have seen some changes but the overall running of the care home is good. I have
not had to complain about anything really, had some questions and they have always been seen to.

Mum was a resident at The Fountains from 2022 till earlier this month when she passed away. All at The Fountains looked after and cared for Mum and when she became bedbound used to pop in to see her and make her smile. It didn't matter what time I went I was always made welcome. Thank you to the manager
and the team.

I have been at the Fountains Care Centre for the last three weeks for a four-week respite, I can't fault the Fountains. The food, the care and the cleanliness is of high standard everyone is always friendly and happy to help this would be my first choice if I had to come back for my permanent residence.

My mum recently moved into the Fountains Care Home and I honestly could not be happier. The staff from the lovely manager to the staff members who I now know by name and the cook are just such kind and caring people, the handyman is very helpful and always on hand. I could not be happier it has made
what was from the offset a very difficult decision to make, the very best one for my mum. She is so settled and content. I have been able to turn her room into her room, surrounded by her special bits and pieces from her home to turn it into what mum calls a cosy place. So in conclusion, I am I would honestly say a very happy daughter with a very settled happy mum.

Reply from Katie Robinson, Manager at The Fountains Care Centre

We would like to thank you for leaving such a lovely and detailed review of our care home. As we have discussed, we are really enjoying having your mum with us and seeing her settle and adapt to living at the Fountains. We really do appreciate you taking the time to give such brilliant feedback. We pride ourselves on providing the very best person-centred care and our staff team are at the forefront of this. I will of course feedback your comments to our staff in our March team meeting, which I am confident they will be overwhelmed by your comments.

My husband was a resident at The Fountains Care Home for over five years and was looked after with care, patience and kindness. He enjoyed the activities very much especially visits from the village playgroup children. He also enjoyed games and visits from animals. In good weather, he liked to be in
the courtyard garden and took great pleasure in feeding the birds.

My sister has been a resident for 4+ years. She seems happy and contented in the home and has had no complaints that I am aware of. If she had, I am certain she would let me know when I visit. The staff are always helpful and friendly and are very caring towards my sister.

Reply from Kay Harrison, Manager at The Fountains Care Centre

Thank you for your review. We feel too that your sister is happy she readily communicates with staff and her friends as she wishes. She enjoys the garden and tells us she is looking forward to The Queens Platinum Jubilee Celebration. We will of course reflect to improve on your scores.

I wish I had taken pictures of how bad this place was. As we waited over twenty minutes for a staff member to acknowledge my Dad being admitted for the first time in a care home. We counted the cobwebs and noted the broken handles on the dishevelled cabinet. When we eventually were let through to see
where Dad would stay it got worse. The carpet was dirty, the window was tiny, signs of leaks on the ceiling, and the bed lining was worse than secondhand. In floods of tears, I walked Dad straight out of there. This place needs to be closed and a complete renovation.

Reply from Mary French, PA to Operations Manager - Halcyon Care at The Fountains Care Centre

Thank you for your review, we value all comments like this is a positive way to focus on improvements.
We do understand how you would be feeling regarding the admission of your father, especially as it was a first visit to an environment such as this. We recognise that your anxieties, sensitivities, and emotions would have been highlighted – in turn causing a stressful situation.
You were asked to wait in the foyer which had just been decorated, to include new lighting.
Your welcome, we understand due to miscommunication, supported a lengthy wait which, gave you time to observe the sideboard donated to the home by a much-loved resident who has passed away. It is as you say ‘tired and does have a handle missing’, We believe that the sideboard is individual and has character, as do all of our residents who we care for.
We have focused this year on refurbishment and progress is being made flooring is being replaced throughout the home, along with redecoration, and replacement of furniture.

A happy welcoming visit. It was wonderful to see my mam on several visits smiling, laughing and joining in with the activities, from bowling to joining in a parachute game with local nursery children who attend regularly to see their friends. On one occasion we wanted to do an afternoon tea. This was
no problem, with a nice sunny room looking out onto the garden, so we could relax, have tea, a game of scrabble - normal family activities. Brilliant!

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.609)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.609) out of 10 for The Fountains Care Centre 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 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 4.609 for The Fountains Care Centre is calculated as follows: ( (115 Excellents x 5) + (66 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 184 Ratings = 4.609

  • 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 The Fountains Care Centre is based on 16 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 45 registered maximum number of service users is 9, which has been reached with 16 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.
