Everything is really good, mom had only been here a week. I did have a couple of niggles, but after speaking with management everything has been addressed very quickly. Mom is struggling to get used to the new home, but all staff are really helping mom settle in. Mom is also much better at night, sleeping
through a bit more than she used to.

Reply from James Morris, Senior General Manager at Claridge Place

Thank you for your lovely review, we really appreciate you taking the time to review our service and we are pleased that the couple of niggles you addressed when mom moved in from another home we were able to resolve immediately in order for moms previously established routine to be followed.

I accompanied my wife and sister-in-law to a meeting with the assistant manager, which was to get an update as to how their Mother was coping and how family and staff perceptions compared. They assured us that all was well and gave us some very helpful and sensible advice as to how to interact with
Mom in the future. We were all very happy and comforted by what he had to say, so thanks.

I am very pleased with the care provided for my Mum at Claridge Place. The staff are caring and spend time getting to know Mum's care needs and wishes.
The staff always speaks to Mum, asking questions about what she wants and spending time for her to answer.
The activity coordinators provide a wide
range of activities and always ensure Mum is invited to join.
When I visit I am made to feel welcome by all the staff. Nothing is too much bother. The reception staff who always book the time dinning. I would recommend Claridge Place.

My father-in-law sadly lost his wife in 2023 so was unable to care for himself. Claridge Place is his local care home. He has settled in very well. The staff are very caring and efficient and always greet you with a smile. The family are very pleased with his care. Thank you.

Excellent care/residential home.
Mum is content in the caring environment. The staff do everything they can to include Mum in activities, which she does some of the time.
Her room is lovely, airy, and kept clean and tidy, can't think of anywhere else I would want her to be.

My nan has been here for a week and the difference in her is amazing. It's like she is a new person, she appears happier in herself and healthier. She is very content and doesn't have a bad word to say about any aspect of the home, neither do I or any members of the family.

As a family - we have been extremely pleased with the care and service that Mum has received in her first 2 months at Claridge Place. There is obvious trepidation from the outset when first placing a precious relative in a care home but all of the team at Claridge's are professional and they know what
they are doing and know how to look after an individual's needs.
Mum has settled therefore and we believe is very comfortable in this setting on that basis - we have no plans to move her due to the excellent care she is receiving.

Lovely, relaxed environment. Friendly and caring staff.
Mom moved in in July 2023 - settled quickly and joins in with activities and outings.
It is peace of mind to us as a family to know she is safe and happy. We are welcomed as friends as soon as we walk through the door.
All Mom's care needs
are met, and when she was unwell, we were informed promptly, and medical staff attended.

It's been a godsend to find this care home. We feel she has settled in very well. She's started to smile and laugh again. Staff are very attentive and meet all her needs. All medication is taken care of. Accommodation is like a hotel. Claridge Place is the place.

The staff show kindness and care to all the residents. Everyone knew my mum's name and made her feel loved. She was in there for respite care following a knee operation and the staff were encouraging and helpful which aided her recovery. It's a beautiful clean setting and nothing is too much trouble.
Hairdressers and beauticians a great extra service which mum loved.

Visiting Claridge Place earlier this year was a real eye-opener for myself and my sisters. Having visited several other care homes our expectations were quite low, but we were shown a home on a whole different level! The team were polite, friendly and only too happy to answer our many questions. Claridge
Place is so bright, spacious and clean, with decor and room size to hotel standards. The interaction of staff with residents was obviously kind and caring.
Dad has settled so well at Claridge Place. The staff now know him as a person and his needs on a day-to-day basis. The whole team, from management and carers through to housekeeping and catering staff, are very friendly and accommodating. It is lovely to now be able to spend time with Dad as a daughter and not as a carer and that Dad can enjoy visits from the whole family in such a welcoming environment.
Thank you to all the staff at Claridge Place for the care they are providing that gives the family peace of mind.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.983)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.983) out of 10 for Claridge Place 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 25 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 25 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 4.983 for Claridge Place is calculated as follows: ( (294 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 299 Ratings = 4.983

  • 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 Claridge Place is based on 25 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 77 registered maximum number of service users is 15.4, which has been reached with 25 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.
