Review from Doris D (Mother of Resident) published on 22 February 2019 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
It was very informative regarding all medical appointments, very well documented, easy to understand. The updates of the ongoing weight loss programme were very helpful. The new ideas for entertainment and keeping residents active with more walking, swimming, music and dancing for those able and more
arts and craft. All my concerns were covered, all questions answered, a very enjoyable review.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son always looks forward to his stay seeing his friends and is very happy whilst there. The decor and furnishings are nice. I get a very nice welcome from staff when I visit. I am definitely kept informed of my son's care and state of health and I am very grateful for the support I have been given
regarding my son's recent health issues.

I receive a wonderful welcome from staff when I visit - they are kind and helpful. The home atmosphere is very friendly. I appreciated sitting in my son's room and chatting to him. I received lovely Christmas cards and presents from my son.

Review from L C (Sister-in-law of Resident) published on 4 December 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My relative always looks forward to staying at the home and is very happy whilst there. The general mood and atmosphere is warm and friendly and the appearance from the outside is nice. A good welcome from staff when I visit.
The laundry service is fine. My relative enjoys helping on the allotment
at the home and enjoys going to the shop to buy his newspaper.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.564)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.564) out of 10 for Talbot Woods Lodge is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 9 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 4.664 for Talbot Woods Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (71 Excellents x 5) + (36 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 107 Ratings = 4.664
  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 4.9 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Talbot Woods Lodge is based on 9 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 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 3.9
    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 15 registered maximum number of service users is 3, which has been reached with 9 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  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.
