I am very pleased with the level of care that mum has received at Charnwood. Mum is far happier and more relaxed than she has been in several months. The staff are always helpful and friendly and the food, cleanliness etc are excellent.

Moving to a dementia care facility was potentially a very stressful occasion but the care provided was good that it felt very much like returning home. Mum has been treated like a member of a very large and loving family.

The carers all show a credible degree of empathy and understanding and appreciate that the more activities involving residents are done, it shows a positive set of results in residents care.

I always look forward to my visits. It's great to see my mum happy and contented and it's also nice to chat with all the other residents too. The management team make everything work like clockwork. The home is so welcoming and organised. The carers are brilliant, very friendly and efficient and nothing
is too much trouble. They are a lovely happy group of ladies. I really appreciate all that hard work. When it come to activities, the staff are great, it's so nice to see everyone enjoying themselves. I would not hesitate to recommend 'Charnwood House' and have done so already.

My mum went into Charnwood Care Home at the beginning of April 2016. From the day she arrived the care, support, kindness and just being there for her has been excellent. Nothing is too much trouble for any of the staff. All the staff take time with all the residents, and are always very kind with every
need and very supportive.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.711)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.711) out of 10 for Charnwood House 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 23 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.

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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.711 for Charnwood House is calculated as follows: ( (202 Excellents x 5) + (59 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 270 Ratings = 4.711

  • 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 Charnwood 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 65 registered maximum number of service users is 13, 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.
