Reply from Vilma Collaku, Home Manager at Longlands
Thank you so much for your review, which I will share with the team. Your comments are very much appreciated. I sympathise with your parking difficulties. Although parking spaces at Longlands are used by our employees as well as visitors to the home, I always encourage my team to be considerate of visitors and request that they park their vehicles around the side of the home, where they are safe. This helps a little to alleviate the pressure on space availability in our car park. However, we do recognise that this is a difficulty and please be assured that we will continue to try and find a practical solution.

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.624) out of 10 for Longlands is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 34 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 33 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.
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:
a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.
The Average Rating of 4.624 for Longlands is calculated as follows: ( (284 Excellents x 5) + (87 Goods x 4) + (9 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) + (9 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 391 Ratings = 4.624
b) 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 Longlands is based on 33 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:
The 5 points available are broken down as follows:
i) 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
ii) 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 48 registered maximum number of service users is 9.6, which has been reached with 33 Positive reviews. Points = 1
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
