You are always welcome to visit and the staff are caring, friendly and make you feel welcome. They offer the kindest possible care to their residents. There are always lots of themed activites and hobbies going on and we are always asked if we would like to join in. The staff in the craft room are great.
My dad has settled in well, praising the food and looking forward to his next meal! I would definitely recommend this place.

I am very happy with all the carers that look after my mother. My mother loves them all. She can't get out of bed but when they got time they will talk to her and that means a lot to me.

I visit Aberpennar Court on a monthly basis to provide a service for the residents. I bring my little dog with me who the residents love to see. A few other ladies come from the church and we always find the residents so happy and well cared for. They tell us how much they love living there and have
an amazing activity programme and such great food. I have witnessed the residents having the best care and support and being treated with dignity their rooms are beautifully decorated.

I have been coming here now for several weeks to visit and am always amazed at the whole atmosphere of the place. Loads of things going on to include residents, the wellness lady is amazing, really keeps the people involved which is not an easy job. I have visited several care homes with family members
and think this is by far the best all-around.

The well-being coordinator has so much enthusiasm it's infectious! To see the smiles on everyone's faces is lovely to see. Whenever I visit I'm overwhelmed by all the staff's work, often under difficult circumstances. My aunt is in good hands.

Our friend has been in Aberpennar Court for 8 years. The staff, carers, and all personnel are the kindest I have seen in a care home. I think they all treat the residents as if they are their own family. Also, as visitors, they are all kind and helpful to us. Wonderful.

The new manager has settled down very well into his new post and seems very approachable to families and residents. The staff at this care home are very supportive of families, as well as residents and if you spend any time at the home you really appreciate their patience, skills and expertise.
Recent
changes to the activities programme are welcomed with weekend events being well received.
Everyone really strives to create a positive, warm, supportive environment.

My experience is the best ever I came to the home not expected to live long and a year later I 100% bet that it was down to the nurses and staff absolutely amazing people one and all.

Aberpennar Court is a really lovely place. My friend is 95 and very frail. Whenever I visit she is always washed/showered and in clean clothes or nighties. Her room is light and airy with a view of the street and trees. The staff are lovely, from the cleaners to the nursing staff. Nothing is too much
trouble.

What a wonderful Christmas Mammy had, the warm welcome extended to the family for all the activities over the lead-up was wonderful. Thanks to the well-being staff. The care afforded to Mammy is second to none. All staff know Mammy's likes and dislikes, she especially loves the milkshake and the home-baked
cakes daily.
I can't fault the day-to-day staff involved in Mammy's care.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.991)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.991) out of 10 for Aberpennar Court Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 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 4.991 for Aberpennar Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (213 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 215 Ratings = 4.991

  • 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 Aberpennar Court Care Home is based on 18 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 47 registered maximum number of service users is 9.4, which has been reached with 18 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.
