As a friend of a resident, I have always found the staff to be very caring, friendly and helpful. The home is kept clean and tidy and residents seem generally content and well cared for. Due to the fact that my friend is younger than most and suffering with dementia, my concern is that she does not
relate to the other residents due to the age difference, therefore I question if it the right place for her. I also think there should be more physical exercise ie, walking and gentle exercise as she has become much more sedate and slow since being here for 1 year now. I believe she should get out more in the fresh air even for a short walk.

I always find my mum in a good frame of mind, clean, very well fed and, content and happy. My family and I all feel that the whole team who look after my mum have her care at the forefront of their role and give her a voice, treat her with respect while providing her with good and realistic levels of
independence. We, as a family, are impressed by the way our mum's outlook on her day to day life has improved since she arrived at Glendale and when we visit her we are all made to feel welcome. The whole service comes across as being transparent and honest. Finally, you must know that some of the above are my mum's own words. :)

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.460)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.460) out of 10 for Glendale 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 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 11 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.558 for Glendale is calculated as follows: ( (95 Excellents x 5) + (30 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 138 Ratings = 4.558

  • 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 4.902 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Glendale is based on 11 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 61 registered maximum number of service users is 12.2. 11 Positive Reviews ÷ 12.2 = 0.902

  • 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.
