Review from Vivienne R (Daughter of Resident) published on 27 March 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Wentworth House takes very good care of our Mum who is 88 and been a resident for 10 years now after having a stroke which has badly affected all her left side. It's really good to know that she's in safe hands and cared for. Mum has good and bad days and we know she can be stubborn and some days she
can't be bothered to get up and get dressed. All the staff are friendly but three of them are particularly excellent at encouraging Mum but also know when to leave her to rest or when it's time to call for medical help.

Wentworth House is a wonderful place. At the most difficult time in our lives, Wentworth House gave mum and dad the most wonderful care and attention and without their added love, care, and compassion for us we would not have got through !! Thank you to the wonderful Management and Staff xxxx

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
When the family couldn't cope with the demands of age dementia and other illness, the lovely staff and owners at Wentworth House became a second family. AMAZING!!! The management employs wonderfull staff that really do understand and care, as they do themselves. NOTHING was too much trouble. My background
is in pharmacy ownership, and we dealt with many homes. The standard of care offered at Wentworth House is very difficult to find.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother was a resident here for 6 years. She was very happy here and I had peace of mind in knowing she was well cared for. She made friends and enjoyed playing dominoes with them. She had a stroke in July and the staff very quickly got an ambulance and ensured she was kept calm and safe until it
arrived. Sadly she died in September but I will always be grateful for the care and compassion she received from the wonderful staff here.

Current Review Score: 9.2 (9.227)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.2 (9.227) out of 10 for Wentworth House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 7 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 4.627 for Wentworth House is calculated as follows: ( (55 Excellents x 5) + (25 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 83 Ratings = 4.627
  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 4.6 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Wentworth House is based on 7 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 = 3.6
    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 25 registered maximum number of service users is 5, which has been reached with 7 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.
