Excellent, caring and comfortable environment. Cannot fault the staff, their number one priority is the welfare, comfort and safety of the residents.
My mother has been a resident here for the past 18 months and as a family, we are really happy with the high level of care she receives.

When visiting my friend, who is a resident of Fairway View, I am very impressed by the professionalism and dedication of the staff at all levels. There is an atmosphere of welcome and openness, which also influences the resident in their attitude to visitors. This I feel is helped by the large open
lounge and dining areas.
I experience some of the activities arranged for the residents, which were excellent.
I feel strongly that all of this has helped my friend to settle in very quickly.

Fairway View's staff couldn't have been more welcoming and attentive, both to my mother and to her family visiting and bringing her for a respite admission. The only problems were lost clothes and hearing aids, which must be a constant problem in any care home. The garden was a particularly lovely resource,
well kept and interesting (not always the case with other homes I have visited).

Reply from Terri Kidd, PR Executive at Fairway View

It’s great to hear such lovely feedback for our team at Fairway View, thank you! We’re so glad that your mother and your family are enjoying the beautiful gardens in the home.

Excellent. I've seen my mum struggle in the past with accommodation, due to her physical health and also due to dementia she suffers from. Fairway View is in my view a prayer that's been answered. Mum is really the happiest I've seen and is so content and settled. I'm always pleased when I see mum here.
The staff are so courteous and respond amazingly. I feel so lucky to have mum here.

I went to visit as my dad needs permanent care. My immediate impression was the staff were kind and friendly. They showed empathy and I knew instantly that they would have my dad's best interests at heart. The home is clean and inviting.

My Dad was a resident at Fairway View from June 2020 to November 2021, recently moving on to another home in a different area. In writing this review, I'd mainly pay a huge and sincere tribute to the front line care staff and activities coordinators who very clearly held Dad close to their hearts and
cared for him. This was truly care from the heart and not just simply care in the sense of his daily needs. Unfortunately, the wretched Covid19 prevented us from spending any time with Dad in the home beyond the prescribed visiting area, but Fairway Views social media page consistently gave us an insight into how he was spending his days. He obviously ate like a king and enjoyed various forms of activities, including some fabulous outside entertainment. There's no doubt that despite the deterioration in his mixed dementia, he was engaged and happy. For the care that Dad was given, I'd have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Fairway View. My frustration at the pace of reacting to C-19 developments is now long forgotten.

My 92-year-old aunt has been living at Fairway View since the end of January this year. My aunt was looking for company and TLC after the restrictions of living at home on her own due to Covid. She soon settled in with the care and support of the staff. She tells me often how kind, patient and caring
the staff all are. How the food is delicious and plentiful and that there is always something planned to keep residents entertained, even with restrictions.
We are very fortunate to have found Fairway View they truly are outstanding.

Reply from Rebecca Selkirk, PR Executive at Fairway View

Thank you so much for your review of Fairway View. We are so pleased to hear that your Aunt's move has been a positive experience for you all. We are very proud of our staff team, many of whom have been with us since our home opened, and we see lots of examples of them going above and beyond for their residents. Thank you again for the kind words which I shall be sure to pass on.

My lovely Mum had been a resident of Fairway View for more than 5 years. During that time she was lovingly cared for by the staff, who had a great rapport with her and looked after her the way she would have wanted. At the end of March, she suffered a stroke and was cared for until the end of her life
in April. The care she (and I) received was wonderful and she died peacefully and beautifully cared for. The staff also cared for me during what was a very difficult time and I will always be grateful for making her final days a good memory for me. She was always happy in Fairway View and the staff became like family, particularly during the Covid lockdown when we were unable to visit. I shall miss all the staff and residents because Fairway View is such a lovely place to be. It is always spotlessly clean and smells lovely and the staff do so much to give the residents enjoyment and fun. Thank you to everyone at Fairway View for all your kindness over the years.

Dad moved into the care home in January 2020. We were impressed by the cleanliness and decor of the home, the size and quality of the individual bedrooms. Dad was made to feel welcome straight away and settled in very quickly, comparing it to a top hotel. Dad has thrived by being in the company of the
lovely staff and other residents, and through the regular activities provided. He is very happy and extremely well-fed and cared for. The staff are special people who show dad kindness and respect. We know he is in the very best of hands, and are extremely grateful for the peace of mind this brings us.

Mum has been a resident at Fairway View for about a year, and in that time, I have found the staff to be caring, kind and dedicated. Nothing is too much trouble, and the staff work together to form a very strong team. I have no hesitation in recommending this home.

Thank you to everyone for looking after my relative so well.
We have just come back from a drive-through visit - she was inside Fairway View, we stayed outside and spoke to her. She had had her nails done and looked very smart. She told us that she had enjoyed our visit.
At difficult times like
this, it’s nice to know that she is happy, settled and well. Thank you all again, especially two members of staff who always are so helpful and happy.

We moved mum here from another care home. From the first hours, we were impressed by the care which was given efficiently but also crucially and sensitivity. There are systems in place to ensure the best possible physical care which as a retired senior NHS manager I find reassuring. However, most importantly
mum is demonstrably treated as a "person". There are no reservations about care here. Excellent home.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.753)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.753) out of 10 for Fairway View is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 37 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 36 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 4.753 for Fairway View is calculated as follows: ( (367 Excellents x 5) + (59 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (10 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 441 Ratings = 4.753

  • 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 Fairway View is based on 36 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 41 registered maximum number of service users is 8.2, which has been reached with 36 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.
