Review from Joanne E (Wife of Resident) published on 17 February 2023 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My husband suffered a sudden brain injury and could no longer live at home with the family. Our home borough found it so difficult to accommodate him due to no physical disability. He spent many months in inappropriate old people's homes. Since finding Steatfield, his life and ours have taken a significant
upwards turn. He is happy, well cared for and participates in lots of imaginative activities. A true home-from-home.

I was lucky enough to be in a position to volunteer and do some crafts and activities with the residents for a good chunk of 2020. While I was there, I got to witness the outstanding level of care and compassion the staff have not just towards the residents but to each other. Every one of the service
users was so happy, and I really enjoyed spending time with them and getting to know them.

During this difficult time in the midst of Covid-19, I have been very impressed with the care my friend has had. I have also been given access to talk to my friend on Skype calls over the last 4 months. The residents are really well looked after and cared for. The staff took the time to address the
needs of my resident in care. The activities that the team put on were very entertaining and, obviously, well planned. I haven’t seen my friend look so happy and contented. Keep up the good work, very impressed with the Streatfeild house team.

Review from Peter S (Son of Resident) published on 1 July 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother was living independently, but after a recent hospital stay, her care needs increased dramatically. While searching for a skilled care home, I've come across Streatfeild House.
Staff have all been really friendly, caring, and take great notes for one another. I speak with the manager quite
often because of my mom's increasing needs and her changing behaviour. She is compassionate, professional, friendly, and a joy to work with. I would absolutely recommend this home without any question.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My grandmother is very difficult and she expects them to do a lot of stuff that isn't part of their duties. I understand, but my grandmother is 87 and she doesn't understand, but she is glad she has company there. I am very relieved and impressed with Streatfeild House. The care they provided for my
grandmother is excellent and very compassionate.

My grandmother has been a resident at Streatfield house for just under a year now and as a family, we are really happy with the care she receives. The staff and management are pleasant to deal with and provide care that is beyond any of our expectation, our grandmother is always telling us how she is
enjoying her time. Thank you Streatfield House for making our grandmother feel at home and making her part of the family.

First impressions always count and this care home really feels so warm and welcoming every time we visit our friend. The care and love received are above exceptional and especially in the last few months during the lockdown, we were able to see our dear friend via Skype.
Definitely a hidden gem among
the care homes.

I am very happy with my daughter's care at "Streatfeild". The staff is caring, happy, and willing. They greet you and welcome you with a smile, always ask if everything is alright, offer a cup of tea/coffee. My daughter is happy at Streatfeild, which pleases me when I leave her. They help her in many
ways, including helping with her phone.

I wanted to take a moment to convey a personal level of appreciation for the loving care that you and your staff provided my mum during the autumn of her life. She spoke often of the wonderful, personal attention she received and the love she felt from each party who touched her life while she was here
in Streatfeild House. No matter how challenging her behavior might be. The whole staff works together as a team to make Mom’s environment a warm and loving place. Thank you.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.986)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.986) out of 10 for Streatfeild House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 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 4.986 for Streatfeild House is calculated as follows: ( (141 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 143 Ratings = 4.986
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Streatfeild House is based on 12 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 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    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 22 registered maximum number of service users is 4.4, which has been reached with 12 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.
