Mum had a short stay to recover from a fall. All the staff and residents made her feel very welcome. She said the food was lovely and felt very well cared for.
Would definitely recommend this care home.

This is a very good home. I can truthfully say Fulford Nursing Home offers some of the best care I've seen ever. The staff are friendly and kind. The care is very much centred around client needs. The staff treat residents as people with needs and as individuals. The staff ( including nurses, carers,
catering, housekeeping) all work together and the home has a homely feel. My Mum was previously in what is believed to be a very smart high-end care home, and they could not manage her care. At Fulford Nursing Home, care needs are no longer a "problem". The team are doing a great job. Thank you!

I cannot speak too highly of Fulford Nursing Home. Although my mother's stay there turned out to be very short (less than 3 weeks) the level of care and attention given to my mother was outstanding in every way. The home also gave me every care and attention on my regular visits to see my mother. A
wonderful nursing home.

My mother was reluctant to move her from her home into a nursing home, which worried us all. But she was completely at ease at Fulford and felt loved, cared and safe. Sadly she was not there for a long time but her stay was happy and safe.

In September 2016 I had the very difficult decision of finding a nursing home for both my parents who were devoted to each other, and who both needed nursing care I couldn't provide. I chose Fulford due to the welcoming, professional staff; the homely feel; and the availability of a double room so
Mum and Dad could be together. Both parents were beautifully looked after and were made to feel at home very quickly, even being allowed to take their own furniture, pictures, bedding etc with them. In February 2017, sadly, Mum passed away, Dad continued to live in the Nursing Home and the care, support and respect he received continued to be outstanding, given in a friendly yet professional way at all times. Dad passed away peacefully, in his room, in December, with a staff member sitting with him until I could get there. I simply cannot thank the staff enough for the support we ALL received over the 16 months we were involved with them. I have never regretted my decision.

An experience I was dreading, until I actually arrived at Fulford, where I was made to feel welcome by friendly, kindly staff. Mine was a respite stay, consisting of two weeks' intensive physiotherapy to regain mobility. I am grateful for the hard work of the Occupational Therapists that enabled me
to return to my home. I wouldn't hesitate to return to Fulford should the occasion arise. Thank you!

My dad thoroughly enjoyed his time at Fulford Nursing Home. He was well looked after and cared for and in my dad's words "They couldn't do enough for me" All of my dad's needs were met and my dad was very happy during his stay. I would not hesitate to recommend Fulford Nursing Home. Thank you to everyone.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.496)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.496) out of 10 for Fulford Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 10 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 4.496 for Fulford Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (70 Excellents x 5) + (47 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 125 Ratings = 4.496

  • 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 Fulford Nursing Home is based on 10 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 28 registered maximum number of service users is 5.6, which has been reached with 10 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.
