Review from Adrienne K (Daughter of Resident) published on 20 March 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our experience of Lyndhurst and the staff is nothing but positive. The care mum gets is second to none. Not the most patient of people, mum can be very demanding. No matter what time of day or night we call the home is always welcoming and communication is a major part of their care and whenever. Recently,
in January, when the home was closed to visitors due to flu and D and V, we were kept fully informed. In addition, when mum has required professional intervention, her requirements have always been actioned promptly. Basically, we have no issues or concerns about the support, treatment and care mum receives from Lyndhurst. Nothing but excellent.

Review from E C (Cousin of Resident) published on 20 March 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My second cousin came to Lyndhurst for respite care. After 3 months it was felt she needed to stay in care.
It took her a long time to settle, but she is now happy. Unfortunately, she is stone deaf so it has been difficult for the staff and herself to join in conversations and activities.

Review from S E H (Daughter of Resident) published on 14 February 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum first care to Lyndhurst in July 2011 for respite care when she first became disabled. It was for a short stay but she was really impressed by the care and attention she received. By 2014 her disability had become worse and she considered going into care full time, she requested that if she could
go to Lyndhurst she would be overjoyed. Luckily for her and for me she had a place offered. I visit regularly and she keeps telling me how lovely the staff are, nothing is too much trouble and she is well looked after. I can see for myself how clean the rooms are and the staff are brilliant. All residents look happy and contented to be there.

Current Review Score: 9.1 (9.136)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.1 (9.136) out of 10 for Lyndhurst is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.4 out of 5 from 6 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 4.786 for Lyndhurst is calculated as follows: ( (58 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 70 Ratings = 4.786
  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 4.35 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Lyndhurst is based on 6 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 = 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 40 registered maximum number of service users is 8. 6 Positive Reviews ÷ 8 = 0.75
  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.
