My mother spent her final months at Sycamore Park Care Home and was very well looked after. My father checked himself in there aged about 96 because he knew too would be well looked after. The staff make it seem like home for the residents. It's always clean, comfortable and caring and there is none
of the stress you could sense in other institutions. I highly recommend this place.

I found Sycamore Park Care Home for my 95-year-old friend, who could no longer live independently. During our first visit, the nurse on duty patiently answered all his questions. I was glad he chose to stay, as the team was caring and attentive, even providing his favourite drink. Though he mostly stayed
in his room, he eventually made friends and enjoyed sitting in the lovely garden on sunny days and thoroughly enjoyed their outings (boat trip, wheelchair ride to a local supermarket or any other trip).
The staff always greeted me warmly and offered refreshments during my visits. After a stroke in August, my friend spent a month in the hospital but chose to return to Sycamore for his final days. The end-of-life care was exceptional, treating him with dignity and providing emotional support to those of us by his side.
I highly recommend Sycamore Park. If I could afford it, I wouldn't hesitate to spend my final years there.

Reply from Coral Abrahams, Home Manager at Sycamore Park Care Home

Thank you for your kind words, he was a pleasure to care for and he will certainly will be missed by all here at Sycamore Park.

My friend lives here; she seems very happy and seems to have a good friendship group within the home. It is always clean and tidy and never smells. The decor gives a hotel vibe, and the homes seem well-maintained. I can’t fault it.

Absolutely outstanding. I visited a friend and was made to feel welcome from the moment I made the call to arrange a social visit. Upon arrival, I was greeted by staff as a friend even though this was my first visit. Sycamore was clean, fresh and homely. My friend shared how she is happy and how lovely
the staff are.

The home is always lovely and clean and never smells like a lot of care homes. The reception lady is always so helpful when we visit, and all the carers are very welcoming too. Would highly recommend this home.

I would like to thank all the staff for the wonderful and loving care they have given my mum. My mum suffers from Alzheimer's, and we, as a family, were struggling to care for her at home. The staff and manager are kind and caring and put my mind at ease from the get-go. Thank you again.

I have been absolutely delighted with the service provided. My very dear friend has been a resident at Sycamore Park for over a year now. The team, and I mean team, have been incredible! From the welcome on day one to the everyday care - it is second to none! They all go above and beyond every day,
treating all residents as individuals, treating them with dignity and respect, and creating a living friendly environment where they can all be themselves - every one of the team. from the management to the carers, the admin team, the housekeeping, chefs and the team who organise the activities and anyone I haven’t mentioned ensures all residents have a wonderful experience every day! Sycamore delivers on its promise day-in-day-out and deserves to be recognised for the wonderful world it creates for every resident in their care. I would recommend this home from home to anyone - it is the perfect place!

I have attended Sycamore Park twice over the last few months, volunteering with the residents and offering hand massages. The staff at this home are so helpful, and nothing is too much trouble - makes me feel part of the team.
One lady is an absolute credit; she is such a ray of sunshine!
I will
be back in February and already look forward to it!

I currently live at Sycamore Park and have been here for a while now. I do miss being at home, but I know that I wouldn't manage. I never wanted to come into care, but I am glad that I chose this home, and there are a lot of delightful ladies and staff here. Sometimes it can be noisier than at home,
but my bedroom is very peaceful. I like the garden.

My dad has only been with you a few months, but from the short time I've been here when visiting, the staff seem very attentive and kind, and I feel Dad is treated with the utmost dignity. The staff are always very friendly, always offering drinks and cakes during my visits and making me feel welcome.

My Mum has recently spent a few weeks respite at Sycamore Park. She suffers with dementia so was quite confused and disorientated when she initially moved in but the staff were all fantastic with her and they made her feel so welcome. Whenever we visited they also extended this warm welcome to us too.
Mum was cared for very very well whilst at Sycamore Park and I would totally recommend this care home. They make you feel like one of the family. A huge thank you to all the staff.

My father has only been a resident at Sycamore Park since the start of June 2023, but during this time, the care and consideration for his safety and well-being have been exemplary. All staff have a true vocation for the care they provide, and this has been recognised by the CQC in their judgement of
'outstanding' Care at Sycamore Park. Completely justified, in my view. The environment gives the impression of a smart hotel rather than that of a residential care home, providing very comfortable and attractive facilities for all residents to enjoy. Sycamore Park is extremely well-led; setting the standard for this lovely and very welcoming home. The manager and her deputy evidently work hard to maintain those standards in providing the very best for their residents.

Reply from Mark Anderson, Deputy Manager at Sycamore Park Care Home

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a positive review about your experience at Sycamore Park. We continue to strive to provide the highest level of care and create a warm and welcoming environment for our residents. It is truly rewarding to know that our efforts have made a positive impact on your father's stay. Your kind words serve as a great motivation for us to continue delivering exceptional care and support. Once again, thank you for your kind words.

My mum and dad have been in Sycamore Park since 2021 - 18 months - two and a half years respectively. They have sadly both passed away and were both treated with respect and dignity. The care they received was excellent. The staff were amazing - very caring. The only suggestions I would make is to improve
the selection of food and maybe offer a menu and get things that residents particularly like. Nothing was too much trouble for the manager and the team.
We will recommend Sycamore Park. Thank you.

Reply from Coral Abrahams, Home Manager at Sycamore Park Care Home

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a kind and thoughtful review; your words mean a lot to me and the team at Sycamore Park. I am thrilled to hear you had a positive experience. We strive to provide the best possible service to all of our residents, and it's great to hear we are on the right track. We have recently revamped our menus following the feedback we received at our resident and relative meetings. You and all the family will always be made welcome to pop by for a cuppa and spend time in our memory garden.

My relative was a resident at Sycamore Park Care Home from 2.10.2020 till he died, aged 90 last month. From my initial phone call with a lady to discuss the possibility of him becoming a resident, I could sense from her helpful, positive attitude that the staff genuinely cared about the welfare and
safety of their residents - thus making the decision to choose Sycamore Park very easy to make. He was happy and contented throughout his stay - right from the lovely welcome extended to him on day one. We are eternally grateful to the manager and the entire team.

Reply from Coral Abrahams, Home Manager at Sycamore Park Care Home

Thank you so much, Kay, for your lovely review. Your uncle was a pleasure to care for in his final years, and we will all never forget that cheeky smile and his tartan scarf - he is sadly missed by us all here at Sycamore Park. Please do pop in if you are ever passing and come and see us all!

My dad has been at Sycamore Park for nearly a year now. They do a really good job of looking after him. The food is great, and they have occasional trips out. They pay attention to what my dad is interested in, for example, they knew he likes a bus trip, so arranged for him to ride on the service bus
with a carer around the town. They made a big effort for the Coronation, trimming up the lounge. It looked super. If you want to see what they get up to on a day-to-day basis - fun get-togethers and activities - you should have a look at their Facebook page, where lots of nice photos are posted regularly.

Reply from Mark Anderson, Deputy Manager at Sycamore Park Care Home

Thank you so much for this lovely review, Jenny, and your kind words! I am delighted that Dad enjoyed his trip out - our well-being team constantly strives to identify and achieve residents' wishes, no matter how big or small! Again, thank you for your feedback; it means a lot to all staff at Sycamore Park.

We cannot recommend Sycamore Park highly enough. My dad was included immediately and settled in very quickly. He was introduced to others and made friends both with staff and other residents. As his mobility decreased, the level of care increased, and he felt safe at all times. He was very well fed,
and the social and medical care was excellent. Daily activities and events made sure he was stimulated, and there was always someone to chat with. His room was very nicely decorated, and by taking his own chair, paintings and ornaments, it quickly become home. Services such as hairdressers, chiropodists, laundry and opticians were readily available whenever required. The managers were hands-on, very professional, easily approachable and dealt with any queries immediately.

Reply from Coral Abrahams, Home Manager at Sycamore Park Care Home

Thank you so much, Lynn, for this lovely review - Dad was such a huge part of our Sycamore Park family, and his absence is felt by everyone. As we have said -please don't be a stranger; you will always be welcome here. From all of us at Sycamore Park!

The care provided was excellent, allowing for as much or a little family involvement. It is very much made to feel as though it is their home, and respect offered accordingly. All the staff were very caring and personable. My father was on the dementia floor, and the care he received was second to none.
Great communication between the home and close family members. Would highly recommend.

I cannot thank the staff enough for the care received by my late mother.
The staff are loving, friendly and caring.
The home is immaculately clean, the food is of a high standard, and the knowledge and experience of senior and care staff are good.
There is a real comfortable family feel within the
home, with families and friends made extremely welcome when visiting residents.

I felt such guilt when I took my mum into Sycamore Park, but it has been my lifesaver in many ways with my mum's dementia and failing health. They said she would settle, and she quickly did.
The care and personal support they have given my mum have been exceptional. They have been her second family,
especially through Covid. The quality of care, the cleanliness, the food and the surroundings are as good as the best hotels. In the 10-months, Mum was there, I never had any issues.
The cost is higher than some homes, but you definitely get what you pay for, and Mum was extremely happy there until her end of life.
To the home - thank you so much for your loving care and support.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.926)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.926) out of 10 for Sycamore Park 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 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 4.926 for Sycamore Park Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (177 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 190 Ratings = 4.926

  • 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 Sycamore Park Care Home is based on 16 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 46 registered maximum number of service users is 9.2, which has been reached with 16 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.
