Dingle Meadow has provided excellent care for my loved one. The staff are kind, professional and truly attentive to individual needs. The environment is clean, peaceful and well-maintained, creating a sense of comfort and safety. The meals are nutritious and tailored to individual dietary needs, with
consideration for personal preferences. Communication with families is clean and consistent, which is incredibly reassuring. It is evident that the team is dedicated. I would recommend Dingle Meadow to anyone looking for a caring and professional environment for their loved one.

Cannot speak highly enough of this care home. My mom has been there a number of years and she always seems content and happy. The staff are wonderful and always treat mom with dignity, patience and care. It has a very homely feel, mom always comments on how good the food is and they have made some real
improvements such as redecorating the communal areas etc. Frequent relatives meetings take place where all heads of departments are present and more than happy to receive feedback. I also receive regular communication when necessary. Thank you for everything you do.

Fully focused on resident care.
Always willing to listen to both residents and family concerns and ideas.
A full range of activities for residents.
Staff at all levels from Manager to cleaner are always willing to talk.
The facilities are clean and do not smell - bright and airy.
The food options
are varied and healthy - my mother in law loves them.
Medical care is good.
Staff turnover is low so the residents get to know the staff and the staff get to know the needs of the residents. They know them as individuals.
I would happily recommend Dingle Meadow.

My overall experience with the home is satisfactory to good. This can be dependant on which staff are on. Some staff go above and beyond and others do not so. Some pay attention to detail and provide support and action, and others tend to brush you off. The home is clean, the staff are friendly, good
choice of food. Don't seem to notice many activities for residents. Another home I looked at had daily activities.

From the very 1st day mom arrived at Dingle Meadow all of the staff have been extremely caring and kind to mom, nothing is too much trouble. I feel mom is now safe and cared for and it very much gives me peace of mind which I didn't have before. As a family, we are always welcomed and made to feel at
ease and part of the 'Dingle Meadow Family'

My mother was a resident at Dingle Meadow from November 2016 until her demise in January 2024. Throughout her stay, she was treated with care, patience kindness and good humour even when her behaviour was extremely challenging. The staff supported not just my mother but also her family members at the
most difficult of times. Thank you Dingle Meadow.

Unfortunately, this will be my last review of such a wonderful Care Home Dingle Meadow. My mum passed away at the end of March with caring staff at her side, love and dignity given throughout her last hours.
In fact, Mum's stay with Dingle Meadow could never be faulted by myself or my family we could
visit anytime and never found anything to complain about just made so welcome. Dingle Meadow had been Mum's home for over five years without their care she would not have survived until almost 99 years, so I really hope other families will visit and chat with all members of staff including residents and realise what a very special place this is.

My father was a resident in a temporary enhanced assessment bed between November to December. He was on a dementia wing for this assessment but also had several medical ailments including lung cancer as a primary diagnosis I would like to highly commend the care he received during his relatively short
stay with the team. I would have no hesitation in placing any other relative for care. The whole team demonstrated compassion, kindness and care as well as expert knowledge. It was with regret Dad could not see his days out with you. Thank you.

Although our Dad only spent a month at Dingle Meadow he had the best care you could have wished for. To us it wasn't a care home it was a five-star hotel. He loved the first three weeks there, lived like a king, then was taken ill. I highly recommend this care home. The staff are amazing, always a smile
on everyone's face and they can't do enough for you.

Warm, welcoming, friendly staff with a comfortable lounge and delicious buffet served during our visit, which was a very welcome surprise and made our visit more enjoyable as we could all share food together. We found the home clean and warm, and our relative excellently cared for. A massive reassurance
as none of us lives close to the home. Nothing was too much trouble for any of the staff we met.

Throughout my mother's stay at the care home, I have found her care, from what I have seen, to be first-class. The staff are very poltie, even when very busy. I am always put through to my mother when I phone her. I have always been able to take my mother out for the day. I would have no hesitation

My nan has been at Dingle Meadow for the last three years, unfortunately, the whole family live very far away - I’m in Aberdeen and other family members are abroad so coupled with Covid and logistics it’s been tough.
Each time I have managed to get to Birmingham the team have been nothing but kind
and helpful to provide a facility to at least see Nan. Of course, I’d rather be inside not just in the pod but that’s how it is right now.
Nan is very old, nearly 98, she’s clearly well looked after and comfortable - it seems they look after her very well.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.818)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.818) out of 10 for Dingle Meadow Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 11 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 4.818 for Dingle Meadow Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (113 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 132 Ratings = 4.818

  • 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 Dingle Meadow Care Home is based on 11 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 46 registered maximum number of service users is 9.2, which has been reached with 11 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.
