Review from Lynn (Daughter of Resident) published on 24 April 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum is very happy at Abafields. She has settled in well and is making friends. She thinks the staff are wonderful and can't fault the food.
I am very happy with the care my mum is receiving and the home is committed to helping residents socialise and to provide events and activities.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Very nice home. We looked at 4 homes in the area before we chose Abafields. It has a relaxed and family-like atmosphere. Toilets are exceptionally clean, I personally checked! This home is not very big and does not have this “institutional” chain care home feeling where the staff does not know the
residents in all fairness I can say that management and staff are warm and caring. It has a real family atmosphere and we are happy with our choice and my nannan is happy here.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have been a number of times over the last few months to visit a family friend. All the care home staff are very friendly and always attentive to the needs of the residents.
I have also noticed the care home has been modified over the last few months with new floors, decor and new technology. I would
have no hesitation sending a relative here when the time comes.

Review from Henry M (Uncle of Resident) published on 9 April 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Uncle was placed here 6 months ago and I visit him occasionally once a month since he came here as a private resident. I can say that it was a good home in general but not perfect. There has been a change of management. At first, I was worried that it would lose its standards but 3 months after the
changes happen, I can say that my concern was unfounded. The manager is caring, attentive and approachable. She simply listens. Some of the staff has also changed since then and this has been a good thing. The food and the overall care is better in my opinion. Meanwhile, on my last visit, I was surprised to see that there has been a huge new decoration activity that made care home brighter and a positively more desirable place to be. The overall atmosphere is pleasant with many smiles. Also, they got a new home pet: A pure breed puppy bulldog for residents to enjoy. His name is Ronnie. He is adorable... Thank you for the care of my uncle.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My friend stayed here for a few months and we are impressed with the new decoration that has just been completed. Everywhere looks bright, new and nice. The new manager was very accommodating and caring with high standards. Nothing was too much to ask. The food is good and the atmosphere is very positive.
If you have respite or long-term needs, I recommend at least a visit to see the place yourself.

Review from Alice M (Friend of Resident) published on 6 April 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have been visiting a dear friend at Abafields Residential Home, for approximately a year. The home has recently had a make-over and it looks and feels much more homely than previously. I have also witnessed more activities taking place for the residents and it is a pleasure to see involvement and
interaction.
The staff have always been kind, helpful and friendly during my visits and an added bonus is the home's new beautiful puppy and two parrots which bring plenty of smiles to both the resident's families/friends and healthcare professionals that visit. There have been positive significant changes to the home which can only benefit our loved ones physical and mental health and well-being.

Review from Marry G (Friend of Resident) published on 16 October 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I had the opportunity to view and observe the staff in many instances when my friend was in respite care. Very caring staff and a highly capable manager makes this care home a good place. The staff has been there a very long time and there is no turnover. I like the fact that staff are like a big family
and caring for the residents as a team. The manager is very kind and does not miss any details. Homemade meals are quite satisfactory with fresh ingredients.

A very clean and friendly care home. The bedrooms are spacious and airy. The staff are amazing from the manager to the domestic housekeeper, nothing is too much trouble.
I am kept informed of my dad's well being. The food is all homemade and good. The carers are kind and caring, I would recommend this
home to others without hesitation.

Current Review Score: 9.0 (9.028)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.0 (9.028) out of 10 for Abafields Residential Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.2 out of 5 from 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 13 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 4.203 for Abafields Residential Home is calculated as follows: ( (114 Excellents x 5) + (27 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) + (24 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 172 Ratings = 4.203
  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 4.825 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Abafields Residential Home is based on 13 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 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 3.825
    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 52 registered maximum number of service users is 10.4, which has been reached with 13 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.
