Our father is in the Grace Unit at Redesdale Court and we can't speak highly enough of this home. The level of care from all staff, from the manager down, is excellent. Our father is treated with care and compassion and at the same time allowing him to keep his self respect. The food is of a high standard
and the home is kept spotless and decorated to a high standard. There are lots of activities for those who wish to participate. If we were putting this review on another review website we would give it five stars.

I have nothing but praise for Redesdale Court.
The staff are truly kind and caring and show lots of dedication to the residents.
The rooms and communal areas are always clean and tidy.
There is always some kind of activity arranged.
The only gripe I have is with the parking facilities.

My Wife has been resident at Redesdale Court since August 2017 so I can say with confidence that the care she receives is outstanding. Every single one of the staff are so caring, respectful of both of us and kind. I have no concerns whatsoever re her care. My only grouse is car parking facilities being
taken by NHS visitors.

Extremely happy with all aspects of care at Redesdale Court. Staff work so hard and stay patient, friendly and efficient through the whole shift. Which is amazing with the challenges they face every day! The administrator is efficient and always had a friendly smile when we come through there door or
when we're leaving. Management go above and beyond what's expected of them, especially the general manager. She cares about and appreciates her staff and the residents. I know my mam is so well cared for and safe.

I was first drawn to Redesdale Court for my mother by the excellent CQC report. When I came to inspect the care home I was impressed by the clean and modern appearance of the home and the helpfulness of the staff. The first impression has improved as time has passed and the staff treat my mother as
if she was theirs.

My mother suffers from dementia and has been resident at Redesdale Court for over two years.
We have been very happy with the standard of care she has received - the 'outstanding' CQC rating is well-deserved.
Residents are treated as individuals and with dignity.
The staff are friendly and committed.
I
feel we couldn't have made a better choice.

Our Mum has been at Redesdale Court since October 2015 in the EMI unit.
The care home is kept to a high standard and all care staff are very supportive and helpful.
It makes visiting easier for us as we can take Mum into the large lounge which is a change in scenery for her.
We are informed if Mum
is unwell or needs anything.
This care home deserved the recent CQC outstanding result.

Mum's been in Redesdale for three years now, having come in originally in 'Grace' she now is on the residential arm.
She is happy and likes all the staff - she has a door out into the garden with a small patio, gardening is still of great pleasure to her and the fact we can have planters and bedding
plants cheers her up no end.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.283)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.283) out of 10 for Redesdale Court Care 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 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 12 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 4.494 for Redesdale Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (121 Excellents x 5) + (29 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) + (9 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 168 Ratings = 4.494

  • 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 4.789 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Redesdale Court Care Home is based on 12 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 76 registered maximum number of service users is 15.2. 12 Positive Reviews ÷ 15.2 = 0.789

  • 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.
