The Review Score of 8.4 (maximum of 10) for Fairways Residential Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 7 Reviews over all time. This Average Rating is also the rating value for Fairways Residential Care Home in Google's Search Results - more info
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.7 out of 5 from 3 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 4.714 for Fairways Residential Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (60 Excellents x 5) + (24 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 84 Ratings = 4.714
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 3.714 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Fairways Residential Care Home is based on 3 positive Reviews in the last 12 months and is calculated as follows:
3 + 0.25 + 0.25 = 3.5
Target of 14 positive Reviews (70 registered maximum number of service users ÷ 5). 3 Reviews ÷ 14 Target = 0.214

As a family, we are very happy with the care my auntie has been receiving. The staff are very helpful and friendly and always willing to advise and help toward any future care my auntie will need. Of late she has started to deteriorate and they have been phoning me to let me know of any changes. We are more than happy and impressed with all aspects of care at Fairways.

My mother loves Fairways in every way. She loves the kind and patient staff. She loves the food and always mentions how much she enjoys it and how plentiful it is.
The activities are excellent and have increased so that everyone has stopped passing the time sleeping and are now following and participating in what's on offer every day.
The carers are amazing, all the residents love them.

My husband has received excellent care since he has been at Fairways for the last 17 months.
But the last six months his care has improved greatly.
The staff are happy as are the residents.
It's nice to see more activities, the whole place has a happy feel.

Extremely pleased that my auntie goes down to the lounge to join in and be with other residents. This was a huge step for her as she had been in her room for 24 hours a day until a few months ago. I am delighted with her progress and am very grateful to the dedicated staff.

Review submitted from a Postal Card by R M (Daughter-in-law of Resident) on Tuesday 2 May 2017. Relates to April 2017.
There is a clear balance of welcoming and trusting of visitors and trusting of visitors and clients. Residents seem relaxed and understanding of procedures and rules. Strangers cannot enter and residents cannot leave independently. Staff are friendly and know who the visitors are and who they are visiting. They are positive about the residents and able and willing to share appropriate information on their activities with close relatives. The staff also know how to support any resident if they show anxiety and professional attitude to their work and the residents. My relation has thrived physically and emotionally and I am very happy with her care.

We found the care home offered to by mother was always superb. All of the staff were always attentive, competent, caring and always available. I don't think I could criticise anything about this home, the rooms were always clean and well kept and the staff always offered a drink to all visitors.

Dad has now stayed at Fairways three times over the past year for respite and they have treated him with dignity and respect. Only problem we experienced was his clothes getting lost but that is a minor detail. The main thing was he was looked after.
