We've been visiting our old friend for a couple of years. I found this 'home' very clean. Happy atmosphere. The staff are very helpful. A caring environment for visitors and residents. This would be the care home I would want to be in if I had to come into a 'home'.

I come to this home for daycare every week. I always look forward to coming here. I am treated with dignity and respect at all times, I always feel very welcome when I come here. I am included in everything that the home has to offer. I enjoy activities and I am always invited to special events. If
I ever needed to live in a care home permanently this is the home I would choose. It is home from home and one big happy family.

I have a little experience of care homes but from what I have seen these last 5/6 months the home and its employees come across as a place where residents welfare and care is of primary concern and it seems to succeed in these aims.

I find the staff to be kind, caring and always willing to listen to any concerns I may have. They are always patient and make time to assist my family and myself with caring for my mother who is becoming more dependent upon them and us.

I can't speak highly enough if this care home. My father is really happy here. He is physically disabled but of sound mind. He is quite a demanding mand and the staff are very patient with him. He is a keen gardener and the manager has had him raised flower and vegetable beds. He really enjoys growing
his own veg then giving it to the cook to use.


The home is beautiful and clean and my father is very happy with the food and care.

My family and I have visited several care homes. Field View impressed us the most, from the manager to the staff. Mam has been staying at Field View for several weeks and is settling well.
She gets involved in the activities. I feel happy knowing she is safe and well looked after.

All the staff are incredibly caring. They know my mum well. This caring ethos comes from the top and the manager is to be congratulated for this.
All the staff are prepared to go over and beyond their actual duties.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.713)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.713) out of 10 for Field View 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 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 9 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 4.813 for Field View is calculated as follows: ( (88 Excellents x 5) + (18 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 107 Ratings = 4.813
  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 4.9 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Field View is based on 9 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 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 3.9
    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 36 registered maximum number of service users is 7.2, which has been reached with 9 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  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.
