My Mum settled very well into Cameron House, made possible by the care and kindness of the manager and her team. I too was also made to feel welcome, and still am whenever I visit. Although not the most palatial of homes, that stands for nothing when compared to the level of care and friendliness of
staff. (A lick of paint wouldn't go amiss though Rose-berry care, it'd sticky!). Keep doing what you do Cameron House team, I appreciate all that you do for Mum and me. Thank you.

My Father became a resident at Cameron House in February 2024. Unfortunately by the end of May 2024, Dad's condition had deteriorated so much that he required a specialised unit where he could be cared for on a one-to-one basis.
Dad's condition meant that he became quite a difficult patient requiring
complex care needs. During his time at Cameron House he has been cared for by an exceptional, dedicated nursing team, who have at all times treated him with dignity, and compassion. The home is run by a lovely Manager who would put down what she was doing in order to answer any queries that we had.
This home makes you feel welcome as soon as you walk through the door, and the team as a whole from administration, nursing, cleaning, and catering staff go out of their way to assist with anything you require.
Thank You Cameron House for making what was a very difficult journey for our family more bearable through your guidance and knowledge.

My dad was transferred to Cameron House from hospital for end-of-life care after a heart failure diagnosis. Throughout the five weeks he spent there he could not have been better cared for and we, his family, could not have been better supported. There is a lovely, happy and positive atmosphere in Cameron
House which struck me when I made a preliminary, unannounced visit. All the staff treated my dad with dignity, compassion and good humour. The nursing staff were outstanding and kept us informed of all changes in his medication and condition, and the superb carers also went out of their way to help him feel comfortable. The home is spotlessly clean, extremely well run and provides good, nutritious food. It has an "open door" policy for visitors, which was really appreciated as we were free to visit my dad at any time.
I can recommend Cameron House without reservation and cannot thank all the staff enough for their kindness.

My mum has been a resident at Cameron House since August 2023. She was very distressed to be there initially, due to the onset on dementia. The staff worked hard to settle her and make her feel welcome and comfortable. The staff are lovely, very caring and professional. They have taken time to get to
know her and help her with all her care needs. The home is well run and managed and any issues I have had, albeit small things, have been addressed promptly. I feel reassured that all the residents receive the care attention they need and deserve.

My mum has dementia but still likes to feel independent, and the carers know this and abide by Mum's wishes.
The carers are very understanding of her/everyones needs.
On entering Cameron House, you feel welcome, and there are plenty of carers helping everyone.
On the numerous times I have visited,
I have felt a warm and caring atmosphere, plus plenty of activities for the residents.

My mother was, unfortunately, the victim of a bilateral stroke leaving her unable to lead an unassisted life. The care that she received for her four-year stay at Cameron House was exceptional, in the time she was a resident my mother was unable to do anything for herself resulting in her requiring
24-hour care by the diligent and hardworking staff. My mother never once had bed sores or respiratory illness during her time here which my family are eternally grateful for.
Thank you all at Cameron house.

I had not been to visit for over a year due to Covid. Before I saw my grandmother I was briefed by the manager who kindly told me what to expect, this was a great help and prepared me. When I went in my grandmother was propped up in bed, very comfortable and clean and tidy, washed and hair brushed.
The staff are all very kind and caring, there is a good standard of care. The home is always clean and smells nice. The manager and office staff always explain and pass on information. The nurse is a lovely, caring person.

My mother has lived in this care home now for almost 5-years and has been able to feel at ease that she is being looked after, taken care of the best she can be with the different stages of her condition as deteriorated. It's been nice to be able to feel I could voice my concerns as they have arisen
and have been dealt with satisfactory. Over time built a rapport of mutual respect with one another.

My father came to Cameron House from hospital in early September 2020 having been diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumour, this on top of existing lung, liver and bowel cancer. He had been given three months to live.
Dad was given a newly decorated ground floor en-suite room at the back with a good
view of the garden which helped cheer him up somewhat.
As he was put on the 'end of life pathway' my wife and I were allowed to visit (wearing suitable PPE of course). All the staff from the manager downwards were very welcoming to us and were always available to answer questions and put our minds at rest regarding Dad's care. We cannot thank them enough for their wonderful, compassionate care of dad during the difficult final two months of his life.

Dad spent the last year of his life at Cameron House after having a stroke. The care from the nursing team has been excellent. We could not have chosen a better place for him to be. The atmosphere is warm and full of life. The manager, nursing and admin staff are all professional, caring, approachable
and treated dad with respect and dignity as an individual.
All the family and friends were welcomed and communicated with. What an amazing team, I cannot thank them enough.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.554)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.554) out of 10 for Cameron House 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 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 9 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 4.654 for Cameron House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (78 Excellents x 5) + (23 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 107 Ratings = 4.654

  • 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 4.9 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Cameron House Care Home is based on 9 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 = 3.9

    • 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 40 registered maximum number of service users is 8, which has been reached with 9 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.
