Review from Susanne M (Daughter of Resident) published on 5 January 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have looked at many homes and price to Little Bramingham Farm. My father was in a nursing home. The standard of care at Little Bramingham Farm is excellent. The home/staff are excellent, supportive, caring and care for the residents in a caring dignified way. They are certainly overworked as the residents
needs change often for the worse, due to age, but the staff cope. They work without breaks but they are always pleasant, patient and helpful. There's always a warm greeting whatever the day or time. The only concern I would have is food, during the day there is a good wholesome meal. Breakfast is cereal or toast never bacon, eggs or a bacon sandwich. Tea time is poor, soup, toast pate, scrambled egg, yoghurt, ice cream. The meals are often cold. There is no offer of supper and although you may be told the residents can ask, residents often do not like to. Tea trolley is at 7pm after that will not be until morning.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.821)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.821) out of 10 for Little Bramingham Farm is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.821 for Little Bramingham Farm is calculated as follows: ( (217 Excellents x 5) + (43 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 262 Ratings = 4.821
  2. 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 Little Bramingham Farm is based on 22 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 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
    2. 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 26 registered maximum number of service users is 5.2, which has been reached with 22 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
