Review from Sallyann C (Daughter of Resident) published on 22 November 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Dad has only been at Quinnell House for almost a month but I cannot praise the staff and manager highly enough! They are genuine, respectful and so kind. It's been an incredibly hard few months but since being there, dad's state of mind and sleeping have improved considerably. It's still hard saying
goodbye after each visit but we now have peace of mind knowing that dad is very well cared for and looked after. They all do an amazing job and we are incredibly grateful not only for the care they provide dad but the time they make for us also.

Review from Wendy B (Daughter of Resident) published on 17 November 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father was recently admitted to Quinnell House, after a very difficult couple of months when Dementia has taken its toll. The staff at Quinnell are amazing, they are kind ,compassionate understanding and always make time to talk to you. They look after their patients but also make time for families
which is so important. We had many reservations about care homes as had a horrible experience at a different home but Thank God for the manager and staff at Quinnell House. Dad is now calmer, coping a bit better and beginning to sleep. Seeing the difference that Quinnell House has made to dad reinforces that the treatment and care that he receives works. Visits are still very difficult and sometimes upsetting but the staff are really supportive and do everything they can to help.
Thank you to all staff involved in dad's care - you do a great job!

My mum has lived here for 10 months and a new manager was employed last month. The manager is approachable and the staff are responding to her. The care staff have always been excellent.

This is a lovely home. The management and carers have been wonderful. The carers who looked after my mother at the end of her life were kind and compassionate, not only to Mum but to my whole family. I know my Mum was happy here and she was well cared for. I am eternally grateful for this.

Current Review Score: 8.9 (8.914)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.9 (8.914) out of 10 for Quinnell House 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 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.1 out of 5 from 6 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 4.778 for Quinnell House is calculated as follows: ( (58 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 72 Ratings = 4.778
  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 4.136 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Quinnell House is based on 6 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 = 3.6
    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 56 registered maximum number of service users is 11.2. 6 Positive Reviews ÷ 11.2 = 0.536
  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.
