The Review Score of 9.6 (maximum of 10) for Vallance Residential Care Home 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 10 Reviews over all time. This Average Rating is also the rating value for Vallance Residential Care Home in Google's Search Results - more info
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5 out of 5 from 10 positive Reviews in the last 12 months.
a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating of all Reviews over all time. For each review the Care Home / service is rated Excellent, Good, Satisfactory, Poor or Very Poor on a number of areas eg Staff, Management etc. The Care Home receives points for each rating as follows: Excellent = 5. Good = 4. Satisfactory = 3. Poor = 2. Very Poor = 1. These points are added up and then divided by the total number of completed ratings to generate the average rating.
The Average Rating of 4.555 for Vallance Residential Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (69 Excellents x 5) + (47 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 119 Ratings = 4.555
b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 12 months. If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with 'Extremely Likely' or 'Likely' in answer to the question 'How likely are you to recommend this Care Home to friends and family if they needed similar care or treatment?'
The 5 points available are broken down as follows:
4 points are available for the first 5 Positive Reviews, 3 points for the first Positive Review and then 0.25 Points for each of the next 4 Positive Reviews.
1 point is available for reaching a target number of Positive Reviews based on 20% of the number of registered maximum number of service users. If the target is partially reached then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home with 50 registered maximum number of service users has a target of 10 Positive Reviews, if it has 10 or more Positive Reviews it will receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews will receive 0.7 points.
If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. The calculation is the same as above, except the points are divided by 2.
The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Vallance Residential Care Home is based on 10 positive Reviews in the last 12 months and is calculated as follows:
3 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 = 4
Target of 3.8 positive Reviews (19 registered maximum number of service users ÷ 5). 10 Reviews ÷ 3.8 Target Reached = 1
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

We are very satisfied with the care provided to the residents. The standard of care is excellent. The home is clean and well maintained and comfortable. My parent seems happy and always looks clean and tidy. I am always welcomed when visiting, also information is always given if asked for. The staff and manager are pleasant. I would recommend this care home to others. Not had any problems.

Review submitted from a Website Submission by Mark W (Nephew of Resident) on Saturday 20 January 2018. Relates to December 2017.
Vallance Residential Care Home was selected by myself and my wife to care for my aunt in her latter years.
We reviewed a few homes in the Hove and Brighton area some years ago and Vallance was found to be exceptional in our view. The home is truly welcoming and it offered a "real homely" feel with all of the comforts one expects from their own home.
The staff themselves are family people and therefore understand the value of an inclusive approach to general and health care. The knowledge and experience of the staff is also excellent and so with us living out of the area, it was critical for us that my aunt has the support she needs around the clock in Hove.
We are delighted with our choice of home and most importantly of all, so is my aunt.
