Review from Angela (Daughter of Resident) published on 13 October 2015 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Dad went to Little Oaks for respite care for 2 weeks but after a further month’s ‘trial’ agreed to stay as a resident. He had become somewhat isolated living with me and just slept for much of the day. He was unable to move around on his own and was very limited in what he could do. It was lovely to
see his ‘sparkle’ return as he enjoyed the banter with staff and residents alike. His little dog was able to visit and did so most days which was lovely for him. The highlight of his summer was when residents were taken to Windsor Great Park for a splendid picnic to watch the Queen’s procession heading for the Ascot Races. A memorable day indeed. He was also taken to Henley with other residents for afternoon tea on a boat on the river Thames and at the end of the summer there was a tea party for all.
Little Oaks is a ‘home from home’ kept to a high standard of cleanliness and the carers are very caring. Sadly Dad’s poor health was deteriorating but the care and support given in his final days was second to none of which I shall always be grateful.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.721)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.721) out of 10 for Little Oaks Residential 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 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 15 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 4.846 for Little Oaks Residential Home is calculated as follows: ( (152 Excellents x 5) + (20 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 175 Ratings = 4.846
  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 4.875 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little Oaks Residential Home is based on 15 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 3.875
    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 30 registered maximum number of service users is 6, which has been reached with 15 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.
