Review from Cliff H (Son of Resident) published on 6 November 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum's Dementia had progressed to a state where she really needed full time care and we were recommend to Valerie's Care Home.
It's a small home with only 17 residents and I feel that this is one of it's strengths.
We dreaded the day when Mum would move into a care home and we braced for the difficulties
that such a change in a person's life usually creates, but Mum took to the staff straight away which was a massive relief for all of the family.
It's been nearly three months now and Mum has settled in very well, her health has improved and she feels that she is at home at Valerie's.
The staff are amazing and really concentrate of each residents individual needs.
Thank you Valerie's for looking after our Mum.

My dad went to Valeries two years ago and the staff were incredible! They treated him with love, care and attention. We could not have asked for more from the manager and all the staff there. They were brilliant and I cannot recommend Valeries enough!
Reply from P Mason, Operations Manager at Valerie's Residential Care Home

Review from Gwyn A (Brother of Resident) published on 4 September 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I'm happy to say that the care home and its staff are now very satisfactory. The differences since the new manager arrived have been quite remarkable, she seems to have energised the staff and started a lot of improvements to the home itself. There is still much to be done, but I feel confident that
with the right support, Valerie's could become a flagship home.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.331)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.331) out of 10 for Valerie's Residential Care Home 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 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.5 out of 5 from 5 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 4.831 for Valerie's Residential Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (50 Excellents x 5) + (8 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 59 Ratings = 4.831
  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 4.5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Valerie's Residential Care Home is based on 5 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 = 3.5
    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 17 registered maximum number of service users is 3.4, which has been reached with 5 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.
