My dad was an NHS resident in Northfield Nursing Home for only a few weeks and he died there on 17th November. I was privileged to spend a lot of time there with him. He was always treated with compassion and dignity and every member of staff that I come across cared only about providing top quality
care for the residents. My dad had the best quality of care that it was possible to have. I cannot praise the staff of Northfield Nursing Home highly enough. Thank you.

My initial thought on entering Northfield Nursing Home was how clean it was, and the care for my mother was first class.
The first thing she said to me was how nice all the staff were.
It makes me feel better knowing she is being looked after.
Thank you.

My 95-year-old father is happiest I have seen him since the death of my mother two years ago.
The care at Northfield in Sheffield has been excellent in every way.
The staff are all extremely caring, attentive and efficient. The facilities are excellent in every way.
Family, when visiting, have always
been made to feel very welcome.

My mother only received palliative care for a short space of time, but her care was excellent, we were kept well informed by staff and doctors alike. The admin member of staff who dealt with me was also excellent.


The actual fabric of the building is in need of some attention but did not detract

from my mothers care at all.

My grandma came into Northfields Nursing Home for rehabilitation from hospital. The staff are so friendly and can't do enough for you. They have really looked after my gran. I'm so pleased with the care she is receiving. The home is very clean, standards are very high. You always seem to hear bad things
about care homes but never hear the good things. I'm so glad I've been given the opportunity to fill this form in.

I'm so glad my Mom is being looked at by such caring and dedicated staff. When Mom doesn't feel like talking I sit and watch how kind and patient they are with the residents. They make sure they have company and a natter in the dayroom. Not only do they care for the residents they also look after the
family. My daughter and I can not fault them.
Well done!

On 5/7/2016 my 81 year old Mother sadly passed away.
She was in rehabilitation care at Northfield after a period somewhere else, her 2nd stay in Northfield, after a previous period in another place.
Mum was extremely ill, frail, unable to walk, eat or look after herself. We, her family were gravely
concerned but wary as to care at Northfield, firstly on 30/04/16. From admittance to discharge on 31/5/16, Mum was walking, eating, had gained weight and came home. The care was of the highest standard, the nursing, physio and overall attention to her wellbeing and improvement was second to none.
Mum fell ill again, spent a week in another place and then the last week of her life at Northfield .
The Northfield team did EVERYTHING possible to make that last week the best it could be not just for Mum but for all of us too. A difficult time was made easier, less stressful because of the respectful, informed, caring, competent way they managed the final days of Mums life. Thank you SO, SO much.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.667)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.667) out of 10 for Northfield Nursing 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 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 4.667 for Northfield Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (128 Excellents x 5) + (50 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 183 Ratings = 4.667

  • 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 Northfield Nursing Home 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 63 registered maximum number of service users is 12.6, 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.
