The staff at Crispin Court, Stafford, have made a very difficult situation run much more smoothly. The facilities and care have been excellent and if something is not right or needs to be improved, then they are always willing to help and follow up.
There could always be a few more staff as they all
work very hard. On the whole, the food is good but sometimes the quality could be improved.

I came here in October 2017 with my husband, who was recovering from a serious illness and unfortunately, more illnesses developed and finally the flu, from which he did not recover.
The treatment he received here was so good. The staff were kindness itself.
I stayed here as my family would not let
me go back to my house as I would have been too vulnerable - a five bedroomed, detached house in its own grounds.
They were right, all the staff are so kind.

My cousin has been resident in Crispin Court for two and a half years now, initially mobile and in reasonable health but latterly with deteriorating health. At all stages, she has been cared for appropriately, respecting her desire for some independence but quick to help when it became necessary.

Although the building is new and very clean, it is the staff that have made the care home what it is. My dad has put a stone on in weight in only two short weeks. His main problem was being extremely underweight. The staff are very caring and friendly, they take the time to get to know everyone, relatives
as well.

Service, care, support etc is what can be expected, but being from a poor background and never having been well paid, I'm somewhat put out by seeing my inheritance go at the rate of £1000 a week. I now acknowledge that I won't get one.
Hopefully, champagne and caviar will be served with the £25 Christmas
dinner.

My mum had lived a very active and fulfilling life for 93 years. She spent the last 2 months of her life at Crispin Court. There are no words to express fully, the wonderful friendliness and exceptional care mum received from everyone. All members of staff were so respectful and anxious to preserve
mums dignity, which was so important to her. Everyone involved in her care called her by her first name, they took the time to chat her, getting to know her and popping in to help her with her favourite activities - crosswords and jigsaws. After a hospital visit, mum returned saying 'thank goodness I'm home' and smiled for the first time that day.
I could go home and relax knowing that mum was safe and receiving the best care possible.
The family will be forever grateful that it was Crispin Court that we chose for her care at what turned out to be the end of her life.

My mum has settled in well at Crispin Court. All staff have been fantastic but the wellbeing staff have gone the extra mile to support mum through a difficult time. The activities and friendships she has made with other residents fill mums day. One of mums friends took her out shopping and had a parking
accident, disabling her car. Stranded, waiting for the breakdown company, she phoned Crispin Court and the staff, including the manager, organised a wellbeing team member to pick up my mum in the homes minibus and returned mum, reassuring her, what a team! I have been so impressed.

The staff have been wonderful, showing care and kindness to my mother in law at all times. They have also shown us as a family great support. The home is lovely, clean and very plush. There is a real homely atmosphere. Nothing is too much for the staff, everyone is cheerful and friendly. It is a truly
wonderful place.

It is always a pleasant to visit - we always receive a warm welcome which makes even the more challenging visit rewarding.
Crispin Court is always able to support the things which help make residents feel at home such as birthday celebrations. Private dining is always excellent.

Crispin Court Care Home, well, what can I say? What a pleasure. The home itself is just beautiful. We came to visit a friend who currently lives at Crispin. Nothing was too much trouble from the moment we entered the home with a warm reception and friendly faces. The food was very nice. My friend seems
very happy here. I'm thinking about booking myself in when the time is right :)

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.700)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.700) out of 10 for Crispin Court Care Home - Avery Healthcare 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 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 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 4.700 for Crispin Court Care Home - Avery Healthcare is calculated as follows: ( (204 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) + (11 Satisfactorys x 3) + (6 Poors x 2) + (5 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 237 Ratings = 4.7

  • 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 Crispin Court Care Home - Avery Healthcare is based on 18 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 70 registered maximum number of service users is 14, which has been reached with 18 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.
