Review from Dennis D (Son of Resident) published on 29 August 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My wife and I have been caring for my father for four years now, with no break. When we contacted Social Services for help, they arranged for four weeks of respite at The Limes, for which we were at first equal parts grateful and (frankly) a little nervous. We had no need to be nervous. The staff at
The Limes are caring, courteous and gentle with Dad at all times. He is happy, settled and secure. He has company and companionship throughout the day (something we could not really provide with only two of us) and there are regular events and entertainment throughout the week, which he looks forward to. He is as well fed and cared for as we could hope. In short, I feel that staying at The Limes has been a very positive move for both my wife and myself but most especially, and most importantly, for Dad. If only for respite, I would recommend it to anyone.

Review from Susan J (Sister of Resident) published on 15 August 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Excellent/Caring Staff/So helpful. Our brother has been a resident at the Limes Care Home in Fenton for only a few weeks, but in that time we have found the care to be excellent, and the staff too. The room he has is lovely, very clean, and the bedding is spotless. The food is lovely (I have actually
seen some of the food). They also have daily activities. The staff here seem to "go the extra mile" for your loved one, if we call to visit my brother or phone The Limes for anything, they know straight away who we are ringing about which is so reassuring. Very special thanks to the staff who have helped us a lot in a difficult situation this week. Also, thanks to one member of staff, in particular, (always smiling and helpful), the lovely lady in the kitchen, once again always smiling. The Limes is run by the manager and deputy and we feel they are doing an excellent job. Many thanks to you all. So appreciated.
Reply from Meera Shah, Director at The LimesThank you so much for your valued, positive feedback which we will pass on to the Team.

Current Review Score: 8.4 (8.384)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.4 (8.384) out of 10 for The Limes 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 3 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.5 out of 5 from 3 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 4.861 for The Limes is calculated as follows: ( (31 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 36 Ratings = 4.861
  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 3.523 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Limes is based on 3 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 = 3.25
    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 55 registered maximum number of service users is 11. 3 Positive Reviews ÷ 11 = 0.273
  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.
