Click to show a breakdown of the Review Score
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 4.72 for Godolphin House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (134 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (13 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 168 Ratings = 4.72
b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 12 months. 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.
The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Godolphin House 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 6.2 positive Reviews (31 registered maximum number of service users ÷ 5). 10 Reviews ÷ 6.2 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.

Review submitted from a Postal Card by David F (Son of Resident) on Thursday 9 March 2017. Relates to February 2017.
My mother has been a resident at Godolphin House since September 2015 and the level of care she has received throughout this time has been excellent.
All the staff are kind, considerate, helpful and attentive, and there are always activities that keep the general atmosphere bright and cheerful.
I would like to see more attention given to mother's difficulty with eating, as since she has limited use of her left hand to cut up food and finds it hard to chew certain things, her meals often go un-eaten. Being almost 100, she doesn't have a great appetite and has always been 'fussy' about what she eats, so I do appreciate she is not an easy case. Summing up, I am delighted to have secured a place for her at Godolphin House.
