Review from Malcolm J (Son of Resident) published on 17 March 2022 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has been in St Nicholas House since April 2019. Being the eldest of four sons and as a family together, it was hard considering how independent our mother has always been. We can honestly say that Mum could not have been anywhere very than "St Nicholas", given the circumstances. Management,
staff and facilities have been first class. During the Covid restrictions, the staff have been like family to Mum, and as a family, we owe all staff at "St Nicholas" a debt of gratitude.

Review from D M (Daughter of Resident) published on 11 March 2022 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father is loved and very well cared for. He is always shaven, and his nails and hair are kept neat and tidy. He always looks happy when he sees any of the carers. We are informed immediately if there are any health concerns. Visiting is easy and pleasurable, especially in the garden in the summer.

Review from P E (Daughter of Resident) published on 9 March 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother was resident in this lovely house for two and a half years. She initially didn’t want to go, but from when she arrived, she was made to feel welcome by all. She was treated with respect, and her dignity was maintained at all times. Everything from the laundry service, the delicious food, reception,
care and activities were of a high standard.
Sadly my mother recently died at the home. During this time, the family were treated with the utmost compassion and respect.

Clean and homely. Friendly and approachable staff. Mum is very happy and content and she joins in some of the activities. She calls St Nicholas House 'home'.
Mum is unable to eat.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
All the staff are highly dedicated and caring. I have always found them to be polite and helpful, always keeping us informed of both physical and mental issues with regard to my father. The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming and I know that my father is extremely well cared for at St Nicholas House.
He is in good and safe hands and that is paramount for relatives. Although my father cannot participate, the activities offered are excellent.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.809)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.809) out of 10 for St Nicholas House Ltd is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 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 4.991 for St Nicholas House Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (105 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 106 Ratings = 4.991
  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 4.818 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for St Nicholas House Ltd 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 49 registered maximum number of service users is 9.8. 9 Positive Reviews ÷ 9.8 = 0.918
  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.
