Dear Chris, we are pleased to hear that you feel your mother is thriving at Chandler Court. Our dedicated care team are committed to keeping families involved in their loved one’s care, and our lifestyle team work hard to ensure there’s always a range of meaningful activities on offer. Occasionally, where external trips are planned, these may need to be cancelled/postponed for reasons outside of our influence. We are aware that on this occasion, the resident who requested this trip was not well enough to endure the long journey. Instead, we offered residents a trip to the local farm to accommodate everybody who wanted to attend. We now have a system in place whereby team members cover front door access for visitors which we hope will resolve the difficulty in accessing the home out of hours. During evening mealtimes, when our team are assisting residents in eating, it is not always achievable to answer the door immediately, therefore there may be a short wait.

We are pleased to hear your godmother enjoyed her respite stay at Chandler Court and wanted to stay with us. We’re all pleased to hear you are happy with the communication you’ve received from the team here. Our kitchen team work closely with residents to understand meal preferences and adapt the menu wherever possible to ensure it suits dietary needs, preferences and offers choice for all residents. We will continue to ensure your godmother’s needs and preferences are catered for. Our team follow instructions as directed by the GP or other prescriber. However, the nursing teams ensure they liaise with residents, so preferences are considered regarding when they take their medication.

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.709) out of 10 for Chandler Court is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 29 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.
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 4.709 for Chandler Court is calculated as follows: ( (264 Excellents x 5) + (67 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 344 Ratings = 4.709
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 Chandler Court is based on 27 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 81 registered maximum number of service users is 16.2, which has been reached with 27 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.

Job Title: Home Manager
Joined: 2023
I have over 10 years of experience in management positions in the care industry, and before Chandler Court, I worked as a Home Manager in a 56-bed service.
Care UK has an excellent reputation nationwide. Their values of caring, passion and teamwork are particularly important to me.
As a home manager, I believe it’s important to be positive, approachable, knowledgeable and passionate about exceptional care. I lead by positive example and do my best to ensure residents in our care are safe and happy every day.
I love the unpredictability of this role – no two days are ever the same. Interacting with the team and lovely residents and seeing them enjoy themselves makes me feel privileged to work at Chandler Court.
I’m proud to make a positive difference in people’s lives. Managing a care home comes with many challenges, but the reward of knowing you have played a part in achieving a better quality of life for people is priceless.
Outside of work, I’ve been a resident choreographer and performer for a charitable theatre group for almost 30 years. I perform in productions twice a year raising money for local charities. You might also see me attempting a challenge or two, from 26-mile hikes to 100 squats a day, to raise awareness and funding for vital charities.
