Review from Marguerita G (Partner of Resident) published on 22 February 2019 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My partner has been in the care home for three years in April. Everybody is caring and very kind. All his needs are met. No mobility and Alzheimers but he is very happy and laughs a lot with the staff. The food is very good. I eat with him for some days and he loves his food. I feel that the mail should
be put in their room as you have to sort through other mail. I would buy a letter rack.

Review from Louise W (Daughter of Resident) published on 22 February 2019 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has final stage vascular dementia. She is always clean and well cared for by the staff. When I ask for nails to be trimmed I do have to remind staff to do it. Her hair is cut within a few days of me asking. She is fed regularly and records kept of her position changes and fluid intake. Her
room is very clean and her laundry is always tidied away. Unfortunately, the furniture in the room is in need of replacing. Drawers are broken. Overall a very good standard of care for my mother.

My Mother was in the Heathers for over 12 months during that time I could not fault the care she received, the staff were always very attentive to her needs, and very pleasant. I have no hesitation in recommending this home.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.931)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.931) out of 10 for The Heathers is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 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 4.931 for The Heathers is calculated as follows: ( (122 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 131 Ratings = 4.931
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Heathers is based on 12 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 + 0.1 = 4
    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 47 registered maximum number of service users is 9.4, which has been reached with 12 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.
