Review from Wendy Y (Daughter of Resident) published on 12 December 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has been a resident of Moorhead Rest Home for some months now. She moved there after we experienced some difficulties with her previous care home. We were obviously reticent about what care she might receive as she was quite frail and suffers from dementia. She settled in quite quickly and
any concerns we might have had were quickly diminished. She is very settled there and well looked after. The staff are all caring and attentive and are happy in their work environment, which makes a huge difference to what we have previously experienced. I can highly recommend Moorhead Rest Home and I am satisfied that my mum is receiving the best care.

Review from C M (Son of Resident) published on 12 December 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The care home staff are warm and friendly and very competent and provide many activities. My Mother sees them very much as friends. Her room is large, extremely clean, bright and airy with a lovely view. The food is excellent - leading to some weight gain! The safety / handling facilities in the home
have all been recently upgraded - with advice from many professionals - and it is good to know that the management place a great emphasis on the safety of all residents and staff. My Mother has been very happy during her 15 months in Moorhead and is looking forward to her future there.

Review from Tracey D (Daughter of Resident) published on 31 July 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Sadly our mother has recently passed away but we as a family we wanted to share this review:
Mum was in Moorhead for 4 ½ years and throughout that time she was always treated with loving care and dignity. Mum made friends with other residents, enjoyed activities and built strong relations with staff
who cared for her with compassion and became her extended family.
Mum loved her food and enjoyed the quality meals that are served in the lovely dining room.
Sadly Mum's health deteriorated as she developed Alzheimer's, and she was not able to participate as much. This was a difficult time for us and the staff were a huge support.
We feel blessed to have found such a good home for our mum to live her last years in.
What has been wonderful and makes Moorhead so special are the staff, thank you so much for all you endless love, care, compassion and support. We will forever be grateful for everything you have done.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Moorhead staff have been wonderful to our mother. We have been really pleased with the care, service and support provided and the friendliness of the staff. I live in Canada and have been delighted that staff took the time and trouble to use their own phones to connect me by video to my mum. It was
lovely to chat with her. Once again, many thanks to Moorhead for providing Mum with a caring, comfortable, warm "home" for the past 2 years. Merry Christmas to all and best wishes for the New Year!

Current Review Score: 8.8 (8.750)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.8 (8.750) out of 10 for Moorhead Rest Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 3 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.8 out of 5 from 3 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 4.944 for Moorhead Rest Home is calculated as follows: ( (34 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 36 Ratings = 4.944
  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 3.806 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Moorhead Rest Home is based on 3 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 = 3.25
    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 27 registered maximum number of service users is 5.4. 3 Positive Reviews ÷ 5.4 = 0.556
  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.
