I am putting in this review on behalf of myself and my dad.
My mum was a resident at Bluebell Court for just over 8 years and sadly passed away in June 2021.
When we first viewed the home we knew it was the right place for Mum and her complex needs. All the staff have been excellent in the care of
Mum and I can assure you she had her moments but they just knew how to handle her and calm her down. They always make sure that your family member is comfortable and cared for. During the pandemic, they have kept in touch constantly to let us know how she is and my dad rang every other day and they were never too busy to take his call. I do not know what we would have done without the staff at Bluebell they are very special people a big thank you to the management, admin and care staff we owe you so much.
When Mum passed they treated her like she was a family member, they were so caring and respectful of my mum and us as a family which helped us so much on that very sad day. Thank you always.

After poor care from a different care home (one a lot more expensive), we cannot compliment Bluebell Court Care Home enough. Every time I see my uncle he is clean, hair tidy, shaven and well dressed (as in, isn't covered in food!). He has not once complained and is always encouraged by staff. Your care
staff are excellent and deserve high praise.

After a very difficult and heartbreaking decision for my dad and sisters, Mum became a resident at Bluebell Court. We can't praise the staff, admin and management team enough. We love our mum so much, and we know she is well and truly loved and cared for by the staff. She always looks fresh and clean
and impeccably dressed. Most of all she is happy and very settled in her new home.
As Mum's Alzheimers makes her a little temperamental at times, the staff know how to 'sweeten' and make her smile.
Thank you so much Bluebell Court, we are forever indebted to you.

My mother was sent to Bluebell Court Care Home in April 2016 as an emergency case and once assessed we decided to let her remain as a full-time resident because she settled in nicely and the staff were excellent with her. There have been many improvements and changes at the home since 2016 and more
is planned for the near future. My mother is happy and content, is well fed, well presented, and cared for and has actually gained weight! Every effort is made to stimulate her mind and a newly appointed activities coordinator ensures this occurs with all the residents.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.588)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.588) out of 10 for Bluebell Court Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 10 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 4.863 for Bluebell Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (101 Excellents x 5) + (16 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 117 Ratings = 4.863

  • 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 4.725 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bluebell Court Care Home is based on 10 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 69 registered maximum number of service users is 13.8. 10 Positive Reviews ÷ 13.8 = 0.725

  • 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.
