Review from J O (Nephew of Resident) published on 8 August 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I was really impressed by the care provided by the staff, the setting itself, and the atmosphere. I visited for an event, and found that the whole occasion was treated with great care, and that the staff were really considerate of the needs of the residents.

Review from J W (Next of Kin) published on 30 September 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
My opinion is that if the staff were more humane, this would benefit the poor service users enormously. I have no words to describe observations of activity which warrant a complete change in favour of the users and their families.
Reply from David Copley, Registered Manager at Ayrshire House

Of course, this reviewer is entitled to their opinion, however we are aware of her limited understanding of capacity and freedom of choice. Her views are not shared by her relative who lives at Ayrshire House or other family members. It is also not shared with our other service users' families, the CQC, Safeguarding, Lincolnshire County Council or the Police who are all aware and have investigated many previous unfounded allegations over the last 4 years.

Current Review Score: 6.3 (6.333)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 6.3 (6.333) out of 10 for Ayrshire House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 3.0 out of 5 from 2 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.3 out of 5 from 1 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 3.000 for Ayrshire House is calculated as follows: ( (12 Excellents x 5) + (12 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 24 Ratings = 3
  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 3.333 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Ayrshire House is based on 1 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 = 3
    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. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 3 = 0.333
  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.
