The care my dad received at Kirkburn Court was first class. Everyone from the General Manager and office team to every last nurse and carer had my dad's best interest at heart. We were all made so welcome and nothing was a bother. I would highly recommend Kirkburn Court to anyone looking for a Care
home for their loved one.

my father was a resident from may 2022, until he recently passed away in hospital , but was still a resident , in the time spent there he had many complex needs , he needed a lot of care , but tried too be as independent as possible , he managed with fantastic care from the carers, nurses, catering
staff, and management, they always tried their best with him , he loved his music and quizzes and got involved when he could , he spent his last few weeks in hospital , but would rather have been at kirkburn , the staff always made me and my family welcome , with no restrictions on a visit , when he passed away , several members of staff attended his service and lined up outside the cemetry gate too see him off , nice touch from them and was appreciated by family , would highly recommend kirkburn court care home. well run and friendly. 10/10

In the short period of time my mum was in Kirkburn Court (15 weeks), we were extremely happy with the care she received not only from the nurses and care staff but from the whole team which included the activities staff, house keeping, kitchen and office. Everyone knew Mum and did everything they could
to ensure Mum's needs were met. The senior general manager runs a fantastic facility and it is evident that he leads his team well, having so many members of staff receiving recognition for long service, some having worked for more than 10 years with a number reaching the 20+ years! The activities offered to all the residents at Kirkburn Court were amazing and so varied. Mum especially enjoyed meeting the many animals that visited the home as well as the singing and dancing activities.
Dad and I were made to feel most welcome and our daily visits to the home were met with many a friendly face, a hot cuppa and a delicious cake. A real home from home.

I speak on behalf of my family by saying that Barchester Kirkburn Court Care Home was excellent. It was a daunting prospect transitioning my grandad into a care home but it was a smooth process with the help of the kind and caring staff who were very attentive. It really felt like a home away from home.
Knowing my grandad was being well looked after and cared for in the ways we no longer could, gave us so much reassurance. It was always pleasant going in to visit him and the friendly staff were always a pleasure to talk to. We felt very well looked after as visitors too. We can now look back knowing that my grandad was in the best place receiving the best care in his latter life with dementia and we are forever grateful to Kirkburn Care Home for that.

The care Mum received at Kirkburn was second to none. They went above and beyond to ensure all of Mum’s needs were met. The staff became her friends, and they spent time laughing and talking with her. They also looked after me when I visited Mum daily, always asking how I was doing. The end-of-life
care Mum received was amazing and allowed her family to say goodbye, knowing she was treated with the utmost care, love and dignity until the end. No one wants a relative to have to go into a care home, but if this is something that becomes necessary for your family you could not get a better place for your relative than Kirkburn Court. My thanks and gratitude to all the staff who looked after my mum so well.

My mum was looked after so well by, her second family, the staff at Barchester Kirkburn Court Care Home. Having a severely disabled son of our own, we know to look for the wee things that are seen to and if they're seen to then you know the big things are seen to automatically. And my goodness they
were definitely seen to. Not only did they attend to my mum with so much love, care and laughter but they looked after my dad who visited every day with the same love, care and laughter. Thank you.

Very caring staff who boost my dad's morale every day. He has enjoyed all the activities that he has been asked to join in with especially the music and movement classes with the kids. The girls make sure that he gets food that he likes and enjoys at meal times which takes the worry off him as he is
a very plain eater. My dad has made some new friends in the home and loves the staff who make sure that he doesn't want for anything, he is looked after 24/ 7 which has taken a massive burden off my shoulders and gives me more quality time to spend with my dad. Kirkburn has been through a renovation period and I can say it looks a million and proud to say that my dad is now a resident in this lovely home. Keep up the good work ladies and gents you are all worth your weight in gold!

The care my mam receives is exceptional, each and every member of staff go above and beyond to look after my mam and our family. The domestic helper came in today to do the en suite, spoke to my mam, and remembered even my name. The carers all are very good and also take a moment to support me when
my mum is so ill. The admin staff are excellent. I must commend the manager, he runs a very happy staff, everyone respects his judgement, and I am always seeking his guidance and advice, I have complete trust in Kirkburn Court for the care of my mam.

A vulnerable, confused elderly lady had been found outside in freezing conditions. She was unable to remember her address and was cold, unsteady on her feet and anxious. The staff at Kilburn Court were wonderful, they brought her indoors straight away and several of them spoke kindly to her and reassured
her that all will be well. Even though they were extremely busy she was given blankets and hot soup and every effort were made to identify her quickly and reunite her with her family. I'd like to commend the manager who took a personal interest in the lady and all of his team, they made her so welcome and comfortable and provided a warm place of safety to a stranger in need. Many Thanks.

My sister is in care at this time, and my brother was in care also but passed away approx seven years ago. I was the guardian of my brother. All the staff not only cared for him but for me also, which I sincerely appreciated. I now visit my sister on a weekly basis, though it's been difficult over the
last couple of years with Covid. All the staff have continued to care for and (assist where necessary) for my sister and me. I can only thank you all.

Kirkburn Court is an excellent nursing home. The management and staff provide a very warm, welcoming and relaxed environment for residents and families too. I have experienced much kindness and consideration from all the staff. We are always made to feel welcome and encouraged to "speak up" immediately

My mum and dad moved into Kirkburn Court in December 2017. They were both suffering from dementia. I was so worried about them going into a care home, but from the moment they went in, I knew Kirkburn was the best choice for them. They had a beautiful double room with a lovely view across the grass
to the trees. Mum and Dad settled in quite quickly and that was all thanks to the staff in Kirkburn. Having looked after them at home for two years previous to them moving into Kirkburn, I know how hard it can be to look after anyone suffering with dementia. I must commend the wonderful team of carers for the loving care, patience, respect and dedication they showed to Mum and Dad. On my daily visits, I was always met with a smile and made to feel very welcome by every member of staff. I felt like I became one of the Kirkburn family. The manager was so approachable and understanding too. I lost Mum, then Dad, but I will forever be indebted to each and every member of staff. Thank you all so much.

My wife was looked after in Kirkburn Court for nearly two years till she died in April 2020. Like many others, I’m sure I was very apprehensive about her going into full-time care. She had advanced dementia and by then was immobile due to breaking her hip.
I need not have worried, her care was first
class. The carers are brilliant, very respectful, cheery, and preserving my wife’s dignity at all times. Great meals, a comfy room, and a friendly atmosphere pervades the home - greatly enhanced through the activities providers - one to one chats, creative quizzes, games concerts, etc.
All staff, from the cheery welcome at the door, carers, housekeepers, kitchen staff, and activity providers have been fantastic, making Kirkburn Court a real home for those who are unable to stay in their own homes due to care needs.
We are deeply indebted to Kirkburn Court and the staff for all they have done in caring for my wife during her stay there, particularly during the challenging months of lockdown.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.574)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.574) out of 10 for Barchester Kirkburn 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 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 9 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 4.971 for Barchester Kirkburn Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (101 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 104 Ratings = 4.971

  • 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 4.603 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Barchester Kirkburn Court Care Home is based on 9 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 = 3.9

    • 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 64 registered maximum number of service users is 12.8. 9 Positive Reviews ÷ 12.8 = 0.703

  • 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.
