The Review Score of 9.5 (maximum of 10) for Field View Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.4 out of 5 from 15 Reviews over all time. This Average Rating is also the rating value for Field View Care Home in Google's Search Results - more info
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5 out of 5 from 10 positive Reviews in the last 12 months.
a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating of all Reviews over all time. For each review the Care Home / service is rated Excellent, Good, Satisfactory, Poor or Very Poor on a number of areas eg Staff, Management etc. The Care Home receives points for each rating as follows: Excellent = 5. Good = 4. Satisfactory = 3. Poor = 2. Very Poor = 1. These points are added up and then divided by the total number of completed ratings to generate the average rating.
The Average Rating of 4.457 for Field View Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (91 Excellents x 5) + (70 Goods x 4) + (12 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 173 Ratings = 4.457
b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 12 months. If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with 'Extremely Likely' or 'Likely' in answer to the question 'How likely are you to recommend this Care Home to friends and family if they needed similar care or treatment?'
The 5 points available are broken down as follows:
4 points are available for the first 5 Positive Reviews, 3 points for the first Positive Review and then 0.25 Points for each of the next 4 Positive Reviews.
1 point is available for reaching a target number of Positive Reviews based on 20% of the number of registered maximum number of service users. If the target is partially reached then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home with 50 registered maximum number of service users has a target of 10 Positive Reviews, if it has 10 or more Positive Reviews it will receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews will receive 0.7 points.
If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. The calculation is the same as above, except the points are divided by 2.
The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Field View Care Home is based on 10 positive Reviews in the last 12 months and is calculated as follows:
3 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 = 4
Target of 8 positive Reviews (40 registered maximum number of service users ÷ 5). 10 Reviews ÷ 8 Target Reached = 1
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
Field View Care Home has a Review Score of 9.5 (9.457) from 15 Reviews

The home has a new deputy and she is very approachable and understanding. She is very caring and patient with residents and families that visit, staff are more relaxed. The home is warm and friendly and I would highly recommend this care home to friends and family.

My mum came to the above care home and I really thought that she would not settle in but after a few months she seems to be doing fine as she has not asked me to take her home for the last month.
The staff here are very friendly and very helpful both to the residents and the visitors alike.

Every time my husband and I visit my brother in Field View we have been welcomed warmly by members of staff, they are always knowledgeable about my brother's welfare and state. They know exactly which room he's in (which says to me they have an interest in him and that helps a lot).
We know that my brother participates in the activities that the staff put on and that he is very happy doing so. He has made friends with a number of other people who live there, one in particular who he delights to sing to.
He seems to be happy there and we know he is well taken care of, this is such a relief to us because we only want the best for him.
A big Thank you to staff members of Field View Care Home.

A new manager has recently been appointed- what a change that has made. Field View is now back to being the happy friendly care home it was when my mother first arrived there in 2011. The staff are all well trained and more knowledgeable about dementia care. Senior carers are aware of any changes in residents care. The addition of the lady for tea activities has been a big improvement. The manager has to be praised for the change to tea, overall atmosphere at the home.

We call at various times of the day and Mum is always clean and occupied. The staff always make us feel welcome and we can ask anything without being worried of causing offence.
The place is always clean and the menu is varied.
Mum likes living here and we are happy to know that she is contented.

The carers are very kind and helpful at all times, also very understanding. Listen to what you have to say to them, they also tell you when things are good or not do good.

Review submitted from a Website Submission by Sam W (Granddaughter of Resident) on Tuesday 24 November 2015. Relates to November 2015.
I have been visiting Field View care home for about 3 years now. My great aunt was a resident for a couple of years until she passed away. My granddad goes to Field View every Wednesday for day care, and now both grandparents have been staying as my grandma recovers from a major operation. In all the times I have visited I have found the home really pleasant to visit, the staff are very friendly and are willing to help in any way possible. The place is always clean and staff on hand when needed to talk to. All in all I would definitely recommend this home to anybody that needs this sort of care. I can leave my family here without worry knowing they are well looked after and cared for.

Review submitted from a Website Submission by Diane C (Daughter of Resident) on Friday 4 September 2015. Relates to August 2015.
My mother has been very ill with recurrent illness episodes 6 times over the last 7 months, with 3 emergency blue light admissions to hospital. She would go home when medically fit, but she had lost her physical fitness and confidence. She became resident for respite care in Field View at the beginning of August and has progressed from being withdrawn
and very sickly to eating, socializing and gaining confidence back in the space of 4 weeks. She has nothing but high praise for the staff who are energetic, knowledgeable, friendly and always available and I am content in the knowledge that she is well cared for and happy.
