The care from the daytime staff is very good. I think it can be more difficult for agency staff who may work at night to develop a relationship with residents. Staff have been very happy to accommodate my mum's needs and go out of their way to help mum to be happy and settled. If we have any questions
or want to chat about mum's needs they are very happy to discuss these with us. The staff work really hard to help residents and their families feel relaxed and supported.

Our mum became a resident of Stamford Court in September 2023 following a traumatic illness. To say her care was exemplary is an understatement! The carers really care and the nurses are fabulous! As a family we were able to breathe and know that Mum was being looked after and she was no longer scared.
This allowed us to have the time we needed with her with no worries or concerns. Mum sadly passed away at the end of March but she went happy and without fear! Thank you for all that you did for her and for us.

My mum has been a resident of Stamford Court for the last three years and I have nothing but praise for the devotion, care and dignity they show to Mum. My mum has full mental capacity and often says how amazing they all are. My dad also recently stayed at Stamford Court for three weeks respite whilst
I was on holiday. The staff went out of their way to make sure he felt welcome and comfortable during his stay. My dad's words on my return were the staff were excellent, so kind and caring.

The staff are very friendly and Mum looks well looked after. Visiting is very flexible and Mum seems very happy. The furniture in the room could be better as the drawers are falling apart but this is a minor issue.

We feel fortunate to have Mum in Stamford Court. We know Mum's condition is testing for the staff, but they deal with this extremely well and look after Mum brilliantly. We don't think Mum would be with us without the care she has received at Stamford Court over her residency close to 4 years now.

I found the staff to be exceptional. They were all lovely with my mum. She was only there for a couple of weeks and has sadly passed away now. They recognised she had a chest infection and called an ambulance. The care was excellent and I would recommend this care home.

My mum is so happy at Stamford Court. She is looked after so well and feels safe and secure. Even when short-staffed she is looked after in a timely manner. The staff go the extra mile, especially as her appetite can be a bit up and down.

On visiting my mother-in-law my experience here has been very positive. The care and attention necessary have always been available when she requires it. As far as I am aware her needs are being met.

Since the first tour of Stamford Court, the staff have been excellent. Everyone always acknowledges me with a smile and hello, and all the staff are very friendly and attentive. There is always staff available to answer any questions.
The staff have taken a lot of interest in my dad, his needs and
interests, which provides comfort to us as a family. I feel comfortable that he is being cared for when I’m not there, and he appears to have settled quickly. The facilities and environment are great for the residents. It’s a nice, calm environment, not noisy or loud, and feels like a home.

It was a joy to visit my gran at Stamford Court. On arrival, the staff were friendly and helpful and welcomed me and my daughter into the home. We spent time with my gran, who only has positives to say about all the staff. Staff seemed busy, but not overworked, all appeared positive. The home is spotlessly
clean and smart throughout. Thank you so much to all the staff.

My mother has been a resident at Stamford Court for 12 months, during which time she has received extremely good care and support from dedicated staff. She feels comfortable, content and secure in her new environment, which gives us confidence that she is in good hands.

My mum has her review in January for her health issues. The lady who did this was very nice to not only my mum but also to my brother and myself. She was very good at going through everything in fine detail. Also, there was a nurse from the home who went through her health notes and the medicines that
she is on. The whole review took about one hour, and I was very pleased with how it was conducted.

Mum has been in Stamford Court since July 2022, after a stay in the hospital and six months in her previous terrible care home. Mum has Dementia (Alzheimer's) and can sometimes have challenging behaviour. What a difference! This is what care should be like. The difference in her is so noticeable; she
is so much happier and calmer and doesn't get stressed as often. The staff are brilliant, have a great rapport with Mum, showing empathy and respect at all times, and genuinely care about her wellbeing. The rooms are quite spacious and cheerful and are cleaned regularly, to a high standard. Family members are always made to feel welcome, and visiting is easy to arrange with no restrictions, just a phone call to check she is not having a shower or being changed etc. There are regular visits from the Doctor (once a week), podiatrist/chiropodist and hairdresser.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.809)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.809) out of 10 for Stamford Court is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 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 4.809 for Stamford Court is calculated as follows: ( (125 Excellents x 5) + (25 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 152 Ratings = 4.809

  • 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 Stamford Court is based on 13 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 40 registered maximum number of service users is 8, which has been reached with 13 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.
