The Review Score of 9 (maximum of 10) for Lyle House Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 13 Reviews over all time. This Average Rating is also the rating value for Lyle House Care Home in Google's Search Results - more info
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 5 positive Reviews in the last 12 months.
a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating of all Reviews over all time. For each review the Care Home / service is rated Excellent, Good, Satisfactory, Poor or Very Poor on a number of areas eg Staff, Management etc. The Care Home receives points for each rating as follows: Excellent = 5. Good = 4. Satisfactory = 3. Poor = 2. Very Poor = 1. These points are added up and then divided by the total number of completed ratings to generate the average rating.
The Average Rating of 4.458 for Lyle House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (85 Excellents x 5) + (57 Goods x 4) + (12 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 155 Ratings = 4.458
b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 12 months. If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with 'Extremely Likely' or 'Likely' in answer to the question 'How likely are you to recommend this Care Home to friends and family if they needed similar care or treatment?'
The 5 points available are broken down as follows:
4 points are available for the first 5 Positive Reviews, 3 points for the first Positive Review and then 0.25 Points for each of the next 4 Positive Reviews.
1 point is available for reaching a target number of Positive Reviews based on 20% of the number of registered maximum number of service users. If the target is partially reached then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home with 50 registered maximum number of service users has a target of 10 Positive Reviews, if it has 10 or more Positive Reviews it will receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews will receive 0.7 points.
If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. The calculation is the same as above, except the points are divided by 2.
The 4.556 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Lyle House Care Home is based on 5 positive Reviews in the last 12 months and is calculated as follows:
3 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 = 4
Target of 9 positive Reviews (45 registered maximum number of service users ÷ 5). 5 Reviews ÷ 9 Target = 0.556
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

Lyle House is kind and caring. Staff took the time to get to know my mother, and connected well with her.
She was happy, comfortable and safe. During her last month, December, utmost support and kindness was offered to her and to myself and my sister. I am glad we were able to place Mom at Lyle House.

Upon arrival, you are greeted with a smiling face and hello from the receptionist. The manager's door is always open and he is always available should you need to talk to him.
The carers are friendly and welcoming.

My friend stayed at Lyle House for respite care for two and a half weeks. Both she and I were happy with the home and the care. I would recommend this home to anybody who requires care. Lovely, happy people.

Review submitted from a Website Submission by Suzanne M (Daughter of Resident) on Thursday 26 January 2017. Relates to January 2017.
The staff at Lyle House are always welcoming and the care they give to my mother is very good. I am kept informed of important issues related to her health and her key worker always takes the time to check that I am aware of everything related to her care.
The food is good and my mother says that she enjoys the choices on offer.
The standard of cleanliness is very high and my mother always looks clean and well presented - something she would not do if she was at home.

Review submitted from a Website Submission by David R (Son of Resident) on Monday 23 January 2017. Relates to January 2017.
The Home is bright, clean and welcoming. All the staff that we have come in contact with are friendly. They are also caring and attentive towards the residents which is our top priority. The activities do seem to have improved and the staff, some of which we have not met before so presume are fairly new, only added to the happy atmosphere.

The staff, under their excellent manager, are providing very good care for my husband. I know that he is not always easy, but they treat him with respect and patience and show real concern for his condition.

Mum was sitting in her usual chair in the TV room, well dressed with a beaker of cranberry juice on the side table. Afternoon tea and biscuits at 3 o'clock.
I was able to have a short meeting with the new manager. A very satisfying visit.

Review submitted from a Website Submission by Jo P (Daughter of Resident) on Sunday 27 December 2015. Relates to October 2015.
The manager and her team provided great care for my mother. They were very welcoming and caring making sure my mother was comfortable and happy, my mother is naturally anxious and this was her first time away from her own home. The team ensured she was comfortable and helped her make friends with the other residents. My mother settled in very quickly. The team also upheld the home's standards very well, keeping me informed at all times and taking prompt action when needed. The home itself is clean and bright and a very calm environment.

Review submitted from a Postal Card by Deborah C (Daughter of Resident) on Thursday 1 October 2015. Relates to September 2015.
Since the home was taken over by a new provider there has been many changes with staff leaving and recruitment appeared difficult, this agency staff have been employed which can affect the continuity of care and the greater understanding of residents. Staff very kind and thoughtful and have looked after my father well and have a keen understanding of dementia care. My family are happy with the care my father receives and trust their knowledge and judgement - all are most supportive. Home manager and all staff are professional, approachable and thoughtful. Laundry staff are lovely and very helpful. Maintenance i.e. curtains etc. little slow in responding to repairs.
