Lavendar House take amazing care of my grandma and helps to give us peace of mind as a family that she is well cared for and looked after.
The staff have become like family friends and always greet you with a smile and so friendly.
Lavendar is all about the care and the activities during the week

This is like no other care home.

We visited my brother every day for approximately 2 1/2 weeks and we found him to be well cared for. Visiting from Australia we were not sure what to expect but were pleasantly surprised.

If only my Nan had agreed to come here earlier. She has been given a new lease of life at the age of 96! The Activities Coordinator is loved by my Nan and she misses him when he is not around. Staff and residents are all friendly. Would be nice to have tea making facilities for visitors, but otherwise,
this place is ace.

All staff are exceptional here at Lavender House. Kind, caring, humble and make the effort to connect to all residents on a personal level. My grandmother can be very demanding and sometimes rude and these ladies have always treated her with love and kindness despite this. Anyone who comes to stay is
in amazing hands and can sleep well knowing the very best care is being provided to your family.

The care and compassion shown by all members of the team here at Lavender House is unsurpassed. It was a very traumatic time to move my dad into residential care but from the very first contact, my confidence was built. My dad's care is first class and he actually improved in his health when he came
here. All of the dedicated team are like family. Thank you.

Review from Sharon C (Granddaughter of Resident) published on 30 July 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My grandad is always clean and tidy, he is always clean shaven. All of the staff at Lavender House know him by name and talk to him. They know his character, his likes and dislikes. The staff at Lavender House always give me an update on how Grandad has been through the week. They advise me if it is
OK to take him out and whether he needs his walker or his wheelchair.
They have patiently persevered with the treatment of his sore legs and done such a great job, they have healed so well. Thanks so much for everything.

My mother has been well looked after by the staff at Lavender House for the last 5 years.
The areas that exceed expectations are food and activities. The staff have treated my mother with patience and dignity and have also been a huge support to me at times when things have been challenging.

The most wonderful place. If you have to be in a home, this is where you'd want to be. The staff are so cheerful and enthusiastic, even when stressed and tired. Lots of activities including pony visits, music, Bollywood night, 40's singing, trips to the zoo and walks in the park to name a few.

Mother says she is very satisfied. Staff dress her carefully, she has regular showers, hairdresser and nails. Staff always respond to the buzzer. My mother is happy when she goes to bed but finds being woken up at 6 am too early.

Current Review Score: 8.2 (8.195)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.2 (8.195) out of 10 for Lavender House Care Home 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 2 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.4 out of 5 from 2 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 4.792 for Lavender House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (19 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 24 Ratings = 4.792
  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 3.403 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Lavender House Care Home is based on 2 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 = 3.125
    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 36 registered maximum number of service users is 7.2. 2 Positive Reviews ÷ 7.2 = 0.278
  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.
