The Review Score of 6.2 (maximum of 10) for Cedar Court Residential & Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 2 Reviews over all time. This Average Rating is also the rating value for Cedar Court Residential & Nursing Home in Google's Search Results - more info
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 1.7 out of 5 from 2 positive Reviews in the last 2 years. (A 2 year period has been used as there were no 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 4.5 for Cedar Court Residential & Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (14 Excellents x 5) + (8 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 24 Ratings = 4.5
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 1.698 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Cedar Court Residential & Nursing Home is based on 2 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows:
3 + 0.25 = 3.25 then divided by 2 = 1.625
Target of 13.8 positive Reviews (69 registered maximum number of service users ÷ 5). 2 Reviews ÷ 13.8 Target = 0.145 , then divided by 2 = 0.073
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
Cedar Court Residential & Nursing Home has a Review Score of 6.2 (6.198) from 2 Reviews
Review submitted from a Postal Card by Shaun H (Son of Resident) on Friday 5 August 2016. Relates to July 2016.
The care mother receives is very good. Mam has a good rapport with her support team. I also have a good rapport with the carers. (I also get a lovely cup of tea!!) Mam gets involved with house activities (as best she can as she has dementia). Overall I'm pleased with her care.
