My mother has been in Crystal Court for around 7 years. Over the years there have been lots of problems, some resolved and some ignored. Over the last few years, the quality of care and cleanliness have deteriorated. I spend most of my visit cleaning and organising her clothes that have just been stuffed
in drawers. However, the incident that has prompted this review is the fact that for the last 3 weeks, mum has had no working call button in her room and she is paralysed and has no other means to call for help. We reported this to staff 3 weeks ago and still nothing has been done. There are some lovely staff that work there, but unfortunately i have been left feeling deeply disturbed that mum has had to sit banging her remote control on a table to try and get attention. Nobody should be treated this way.

Reply from Paul Millar, Marketing Manager at Crystal Court

Many thanks for taking the time to review our home. all feedback is welcomed and allows us to continually develop our service.We understand that the issue in respect of the Call bell has been picked up with the home manager and that it has now been resolved and an investigation is underway as to how this has happened and why it wasn't repaired as a matter of urgency. The point you raised in respect of cleanliness and clothing has again been discussed with the home manager and he would be happy to discuss this with you directly. Again, please accept our sincere apologies for this matter and would kindly request that all matters regarding issues you may have surrounding your Mum's care be directed to the home manager

My mother moved to Crystal Court from another care home. Each time we have visited the staff have been very welcoming and reassuring. My mum looks very well cared for and clean and happy. She has dementia but seem calm. Her room and the general areas are spotless. An activities lady introduced herself
and was doing creative things with residents. We are pleased all round.

Right from the first visit the management and staff were thoughtful and caring. We were shown a lovely room in the new wing and immediately knew it would be right for Mum. (We also looked at an older room and there was absolutely nothing wrong with it). Mum was discharged from hospital to Crystal Court
as a resident and immediately settled in, enjoying the food, activities and companionship. In fact I can honestly say I hadn't seen Mum enjoying herself so much for a long time.Sadly after a few weeks Mum was taken ill again and passed away. The day she was taken ill she was immediately looked after and transported to hospital and after she passed the management of Crystal Court showed compassion and allowed us time to collect her things from her room.This was the second time our relatives have lived at Crystal Court and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the care home to someone looking for a place for loved ones.Thank you all at Crystal Court, including the residents who welcomed Mum!

I cannot express enough gratitude for the care my mum received at this nursing home during her final weeks. The home manager was incredibly compassionate, listening to my concerns and providing us with a selection of available rooms to choose from. This thoughtful approach meant the world to me, as
I wanted her last moments to be filled with dignity and respect. One nurse in particular and her amazing team went above and beyond-they were always available, responding to my calls, and ensuring my mum was comfortable. I was able to stay by her side throughout her remaining days, thanks to their transparency and reassurance. The level of care, compassion, and understanding from the staff gave me peace of mind during such a difficult time. I truly believe my mum couldn't have been better looked after, and I will forever be thankful for the support and kindness we received. This home is a remarkable place for anyone needing care in their final days.

I find Crystal Court to be a welcoming, loving, caring home. The staff always show that each resident is special to them and always tries to help and please when the situation can be difficult.
Communication - some senior staff are slightly better than others but on the whole, it is good.
On the whole,
I would recommend the home to anyone.

My wife was a resident at Crystal Court for 4 and a half years until she died last week. She was greeted with care and dignity and never failed to appreciate the care and friendships she always received.
I shall always be grateful I chose Crystal Court and will recommend this house to any and all
who give me the opportunity.

The care my husband has received is excellent. All the staff and management caring and keeping my husband safe are compassionate extremely caring and always have time to listen and help with any concerns.
I am always kept up to date with any concerns about my husband usually by phone or when I visit.
The
home and rooms are lovely and clean and all staff are very friendly including maintenance and cleaning staff.
I would certainly recommend this home to anyone.
It took me a while to accept my husband needed more care than I could give him and the staff were so good knowing I was upset would ring me to let me know my husband had settled.

On my first visit to Crystal Court with my daughter, I was struck by its warm welcoming atmosphere. I liked the building, the rooms, and the garden. All in all, I was very happy with what I saw. I visit my husband usually every day and the very great kindness and understanding I have received from all
the staff has greatly added to my peace of mind.

Mum was at Crystal Court for 22 months. During her time there she was well looked after by the hardworking staff. They all knew Mum's name as I wheeled her around the care home in her chair, which meant a lot. The staff are very kind and caring and treated Mum with respect and dignity.

My sister-in-law is always treated with respect and dignity. Beautifully cared for. The staff are always approachable and pleasant with time to talk.
My dad was on the Alzheimer's floor. He was happy, well cared for and always clean. The staff were all diligent, caring and approachable. On the night
he died, we were given every support and comfort. All was calm and respectful.

I am a mental health nurse and an Independent Mental Capacity Assessor and I visited one of your residents to carry out a capacity assessment and act as certificate provider for her LPA. The lady in question has communication difficulties and I was helped enormously by your activities co-ordinator.
She showed great kindness to the resident and it was clear that she knew her really well and cared about her. She was also very skilled in being able to communicate with the resident and knowledgeable about what mental capacity entails. You must be very proud to have her on your team.

My mother-in-law moved into Crystal Court just before Christmas 2022 after a 2-month stint in the hospital after being diagnosed with flu and pneumonia. Her already complex and severe medical and emotional needs have deteriorated since being admitted. Our family sincerely like to commend and thank the
staff at Crystal Court for often going above and beyond and also for their patience, kindness, tolerance and genuine care, which we all including my mother-in-law. Really appreciated.

My mother was in the first-floor dementia ward for almost one full year before she passed away.
The carers and therapists have treated my mother with the utmost patience and concern for her well-being. Mother has been relaxed and at ease throughout her stay there.
I cannot praise the staff enough
for the manner that they have nursed, cared for, fed and clothed my mother during her stay. They have without exception carried out their duties beyond all our expectations.
My whole family have been delighted with our choice of care home and feel we could not have bettered it.

My mum has only been in Crystal Court Care Home for four weeks. The staff and management have been so kind and supportive to Mum and all our family. My mum, at times, can be very challenging due to her dementia but the staff are very experienced and look after her needs in a caring way.
This is not
a negative comment about any of the staff or management but I do think the dementia ward/wing would benefit from another member of staff.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.626)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.626) out of 10 for Crystal Court 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 15 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 4.626 for Crystal Court is calculated as follows: ( (136 Excellents x 5) + (31 Goods x 4) + (9 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 182 Ratings = 4.626

  • 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 Crystal Court is based on 15 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 68 registered maximum number of service users is 13.6, which has been reached with 15 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.
