Putting my dad in a care home is the hardest thing I have ever had to do. He had just lost my mum and could not manage on his own despite my best efforts to help him. I felt so torn and guilty because he so wanted to stay in his own home. The staff at Springfield were so very kind and amazing right
from the first phone call I made. When first going into Springfield, it is very bright and welcoming, with lovely seasonal decorations, a lovely lounge and dining area and really nice rooms. When my dad arrived there, they made such a fuss of him. I can't describe how kind and understanding they all are. It was way beyond my expectations, and I feel so relieved and fortunate to have got my dad a place here. The staff are friendly, compassionate, caring and attentive to both my dad and me. If you are looking for a care home, I can highly recommend Springfield.

Absolutely fabulous place. My dad has been in the home since Dec 2021, and he is very happy. It's so clean, and the staff are wonderful. We never have any problems when we visit. We take him out as much as we can, and he is more than happy to return. The food looks delicious, and everything is spotless.
The staff are friendly and always happy to help. Highly recommend this home.

Although my late father's stay was a short one, it was memorable. He made friends with other residents, and he was comfortable and treated with dignity and respect by the staff. His family, friends and relatives were always made welcome.

Springfield care home looked after Dad brilliantly during his short stay here. The staff really took care of him. Sadly he passed away there, and during his last few days, they cared for him and also his family during our bedside vigil. The home itself is truly like a "home from home". The staff are
kind - everyone there, including the staff "behind the scenes".

My mother has been a resident at Springfield Care Home for three years. My sister and I continue to be impressed with the home. We have always felt confident that she is being well looked after.
Recently she was taken seriously ill and we started to plan for the end of her life. Thankfully she is
a fighter and to everybody's surprise, she has recovered.
During this period the staff could not have been more supportive. They showed a genuine love for Mom which was clear to see.
We naturally, during this period, spent more time at the home. I have always believed it to be well run but during our extended stays, I saw how efficiently managed it really is.
The building is very well set out, residents seem happy to be there and staff definitely go the extra mile to keep everybody entertained.
Well done Springfield.

Dad has recently entered Springfield and immediately settled in and made friends, loving the place and staff. His condition has quickly deteriorated and is now receiving end-of-life care. Subsequently, we have been spending considerable time here at all hours. I can honestly say the facilities and,
more importantly, the staff are consistently excellent. The level of care my dad is receiving is a great comfort to us. We highly recommend this care home.

My husband was in Springfield for nine months before sadly passing away. The care and love he was given was second to none and also the care given to me was excellent, and, as I was visiting almost every day I became to regard them as my second family. His room was always spotless as was the rest of
the home and I would not hesitate to recommend the home to anyone.

My dad was in Springfields in Bradford; he was there for about nine months. The home is spotless and doesn’t have that ‘care home smell’.
The staff were amazing and became part of our family; they loved and cared for my dad as well as my mum, who visited him every day.
The activities my dad took part
in when he first went in, he really enjoyed, especially the quizzes and the wine and cheese afternoon.
I can’t recommend Springfield enough, the whole team are lovely and they cannot do enough to ensure that the best care is given.

My grandma was in Springfield for only five weeks and what a difference it made to her life in such a short time. The staff got to know her so quickly, and she was up and part of the community instantly. We absolutely loved the wish tree, and that staff knew she was a Beethoven fan. The home was immaculately
clean, and she was always treated with such dignity - she had her pride back thanks to you. She got to do so much in her short time, including going to mass and eating her favourite meals! We loved being able to see her adventures on Facebook too. On behalf of all my family, thank you.

Overall good, due to the exceptional situation due to Covid, so I can't say what it was like Pre-Covid. But under the very difficult circumstances, excellent. Always kept informed all the way through.

I didn't get to see Mum much during the six months she was there due to lockdowns. So my review is limited. End of life, when my brother could be there, he said was caring and compassionate.

We have been visiting my brother, who is extremely ill, and were amazed at the care, gentleness and kindness shown to him. As he was dying, we were allowed to visit anytime and stay as we wanted. Staff were so kind and considerate towards us in every day possible. We thank them so much for the care
shown to our brother.

The care, support and stimulation have produced an environment that has enabled my mother to not only survive the recent (and continuing) pandemic but to thrive. She is as well or better than when she was transferred to Springfield several years ago. This has been, without doubt, due to the diligence,
caring and sustained provision by the management and care staff.

Both my dad and my mum were staying at Springfield, Dad for a short time, and my mum for two years. I was very satisfied with the care they both received from all the staff and how the staff coped during Covid and kept us updated with video calls and visits when allowed. The manager and the team kept
me updated on my mum near her end of days. Six stars to all

My father moved into Springfield in November 2019; he settled in slowly as first. He had been on his own for two and a half years since my mother did, and was not used to being with so many other people. We visited for the next four months, and he was a whole lot better, enjoying the meals and happy
he had a lovely room and was content. He had no complaints. Unfortunately, lockdown started, so we did not visit for 14-months; he had twelve visits, eleven outside and one inside - 23 December 6-hours in total in 9-months. I was happy with how good he looked, clean and tidy. I feel I am not the best to give a review not being able to visit. My sister and I are very grateful to the staff for all the care knowing he was safe and well; many thanks.

My husband was admitted to Springfield 10-weeks ago with dementia. He was allocated a room opening onto the generous outside space, which is well laid out with trees and plants. The staff are amazing, the management is excellent, the carers are wonderful, always cheerful and have time to chat and answer
questions, and the same applies to the reception staff. My husband is content and well cared for. We have hit the jackpot level.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.747)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.747) out of 10 for Springfield 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 52 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 52 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 4.747 for Springfield is calculated as follows: ( (464 Excellents x 5) + (136 Goods x 4) + (9 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 609 Ratings = 4.747

  • 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 Springfield is based on 52 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 99 registered maximum number of service users is 19.8, which has been reached with 52 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.
