The Review Score of 8.3 (maximum of 10) for Eversfield House 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 over all time. This Average Rating is also the rating value for Eversfield House in Google's Search Results - more info
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.7 out of 5 from 2 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 4.676 for Eversfield House is calculated as follows: ( (164 Excellents x 5) + (71 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 238 Ratings = 4.676
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 3.667 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Eversfield House is based on 2 positive Reviews in the last 12 months and is calculated as follows:
3 + 0.25 = 3.25
Target of 4.8 positive Reviews (24 registered maximum number of service users ÷ 5). 2 Reviews ÷ 4.8 Target = 0.417
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

Eversfield House is like a home from home. Friendly, caring and professional, they really know the results and all their quirks! Easy to approach and extremely helpful, the staff always have a smile on their face, and nothing is too much trouble. We were worried about my uncle's transition from living on his own to a residential care home, but he has settled in extremely well and now has a new lease of life. Thank you to everyone at Eversfield House.

Eversfield House is an excellent residential home and made my father's last 18 months much happier than they might otherwise have been. From the management team to the cleaners, all the staff are extremely hard working while never being too busy to take the time to talk to residents reassure them and make sure they are comfortable and happy. Although it is a residential home the medical knowledge of the staff, in particular, the manager is excellent and their attention to detail and care in these areas is exemplary with a wide range of well-cooked food nutritious diet is also achieved my father could not have been in better care and it was very comforting for my siblings and I know how well he was being looked after.

Visiting a friend convalescing at Eversfield House for 6 weeks, following a serious operation.
I was pleasantly surprised to find an efficient home with friendly, efficient staff, her room was light and airy, well furnished and the food most appetising, fresh and home cooked with an amazing choice.
My friend received excellent care and will be sorry to leave and return to her own home. She was visited regularly by a G.P and practice nurse from the nearby surgery.
What a surprise to find such an excellent care home. When one reads about the poor service some people endure at other care homes.
If in the future I need the services of a care home I am confident that I know where to go and I have no hesitation in recommending the home to others.

I have been visiting Eversfield House for six years on a regular basis, along with many other such homes. This one stands out for me. The staff always seem caring and attentive and as a result, the residents are happy, treated with dignity and well cared for. The best thing I can say is that based on my observations of many homes I visit if the time comes that I need to go into a home I would not hesitate to choose Eversfield House.

Homely atmosphere together with a friendly approach. Visitors are welcome throughout the day and depending on the length of journey, are offered refreshments. There is entertainment once a week.
There is a service of a doctors surgery opposite the premises. Food choices of menu offered daily and individual tastes are usually catered for.

An excellent retirement home and I have been impressed with the care, kindness and attention given to everyone. My mother is now very elderly and can be difficult to look after but she is cared for with understanding and patience. Also, I would mention that the mix of entertainment and wellbeing demonstrations provide a stimulating environment.

A friend was very poorly. The care he was receiving at home from a care agency was inadequate. I had been visiting Eversfield and was impressed with the care and surroundings. The home did not smell. I was always made welcome. I approached the manager and asked her to put my friends name on the list. He moved in and we expected him to survive six months. Due to his excellent care he survived 4 years. Sadly he passed away recently. I shall continue to visit the home and recommend it.

My mother enjoyed staying at Eversfield House. She was loved by the staff and got on very well with them. She made some friends with the other residents and was welcomed to activities and the outings. Because of the layout of the residence, mum's room was a little remote, but that could not be helped and mum loved her room which was nice and quiet. Overall, I am pleased with the care mum was given.

My mother has been a resident at Eversfield since August 2015. She initially went for respite but due to poor mobility/balance and anxiety at the thought of returning home, decided to become a permanent resident. I felt the warmth and care the first time I visited Eversfield house. My mother is very well cared for and settled. The management is excellent as are all the care staff. I visit often and would have no hesitation I recommending Eversfield whatsoever. I am so pleased my mother is settled and no longer worry.

Eversfield House provides an excellent quality of care for their residents. As power of attorney for my friend who was a resident, I was aware of the support and positive ambience around the home. Towards the end of my friend's life, he lost his taste and catering was helpfully adjusted to support him.

My late my mother was at Eversfield for respite but liked it so much she wanted to stay. The home is a very nice place with friendly professional staff. They made her last few years of her life very comfortable. I could not have asked for more. I would highly recommend Eversfield to anyone who needs a home for their parents.
