Reply from Jason Parker, Registered Manager at Corton House
Thank you for your feedback, we appreciate you taking the time to review Corton House and are pleased that you feel the service is very good, despite the challenges found throughout the social care sector. We have found that residents are enjoying the calmer, more homely feel that our new silent alarm bells help foster. Please be assured that staff members are not reliant on seeing alarm calls on the screens alone; every member of the care team is equipped with a pager, which notifies the wearer of calls immediately. Higher importance calls – such as emergencies – do still sound aloud to demonstrate the urgency of the situation. If you have any other queries regarding the system, please feel free to discuss these with management who will be happy to clarify further. As you recognise, weekend staffing remains a challenge within the sector; we are currently on a recruitment drive which has thus far resulted in a number of fantastic new staff starting imminently.

Thank you for your review, Norma. We are glad that you are enjoying living at Corton House and feel well looked after and we are particularly glad you felt well-supported at the time of your husband’s passing.
As you mention, we are embarking upon a refurbishment project for our communal areas this year. As you will be aware we have already held one consultation meeting between residents and our interior designer, a really important step in ensuring our new look is designed around everyone who lives and works at Corton House. We look forward to the new designs coming to fruition soon and will be taking steps to ensure minimal disruption to residents during this period.

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.868) out of 10 for Corton House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.
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 4.868 for Corton House is calculated as follows: ( (227 Excellents x 5) + (28 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 258 Ratings = 4.868
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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Corton House is based on 22 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 44 registered maximum number of service users is 8.8, which has been reached with 22 Positive reviews. Points = 1
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.
