My experience of Linear Park not a good one.
Found the staff not very apprachable and felt uncomfortable whilst visiting. Very cramped communal space all residents seemed to be kept in one small area. The rooms very very small. My Dad's dated and could smell stale water from the sink. The doors were
fire doors which I understand but for residents who had walking frames very difficult for them to negotiate opening door one handed. My father was awaiting a diagnosis of dementia which we only got the week he had a fall and broke his hip. Sadly didn't recover. He would have certainly been moved to a more appropriate, more comfortable home if he'd recovered. The day he fell he was lifted into a chair awaiting an ambulance. His fall was unseen so they didn't know his injury. He was given breakfast and medication. Some of those were blood thinners which mean this delayed his operation. As a non medical person even I wouldn't have given blood thinners for someone who had just fallen.

Mum moved in 2.11.15. So pleased to get mum into here. Never thought I would say any home could be this nice. It's exceptional. The environment the staff the atmosphere are all wonderful. Manager and owners always seem to be there when we visit and nothing to much trouble . Mum's room is fantastic
especially compared to previous home where she was put into respite and not our choice.

Current Review Score: 1.2 (1.167)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 1.2 (1.167) out of 10 for Linear Park is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 1.2 out of 5 from 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 0.0 out of 5 from 0 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 1.167 for Linear Park is calculated as follows: ( (2 Poors x 2) + (10 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 1.167

  • b) 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 0 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Linear Park is based on 0 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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) =

    • ii) 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 31 registered maximum number of service users is 6.2. 0 Positive Reviews ÷ 6.2 = 0

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
