From what I have seen when visiting my friend I think this is a lovely home and the staff are lovely. It is always clean and bright. I cannot answer all of the questions because I am not familiar with all of them but on the whole, I would definitely recommend this home to others.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We the family are very happy with Field View. The facilities and staff are all excellent and everything is spotlessly clean. My mother was reluctant at first but has settled in well and speaks highly of the staff who ensure she is involved in the activities. I have found that my mother actually more
alert now and is eating much better than she was when left to her own devices. I feel confident that she is being well looked after.

Review from K S (Daughter of Resident) published on 29 July 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My dad has lived in Field View for 3 years and he (and I) have always been more than satisfied with the high level of care given to all aspects of his life. He is spotlessly clean as are his laundered clothes. The home is spotlessly clean too and always smells fresh and clean. He is helped to maintain
the lifestyle he has before coming to Field View i.e. going to church weekly. The staff are second to none. They are so friendly, professional and knowledgeable. Nothing is too much trouble for any of them. If dad needs anything it is there in a flash- there is no waiting for days for things to be done. The central heating system has been upgraded and today I was talking to one of the workmen who during the course of our chat said this was the best home he had been in - and I agree!

Very pleasant bright place. Clean- always tidy. All staff really nice, nothing is too much trouble. I help to make cakes on Tuesdays we eat them at our coffee morning Wed. We play bingo, dominoes and various other things. I need help from staff as I cannot weight bear on my leg so need to be hoisted
everywhere which they do for me. Staff really good.

I visited Field View to do a clothes party for the residents. All staff are very friendly. The event organiser invited us in and she is very helpful with the residents needs. She makes sure all the residents are catered for, also she is very attentive to all.

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.
