Review from David C (Resident) published on 22 April 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have been a resident at Newlañds since June 2024 when I decided to come here after almost ten years living on my own after my wife's demise.
I was doing a pretty good job of it until I was hit with a series of minor illnesses requiring hospitalisation. I decided that a care home was the answer, and
eventually decided on Newlañds after viewing several homes.
I also had the advantage of having volunteered in several care homes, hospices and University medical schools for twenty years, so I reckon I had a wealth of experience to call on.
My initial feeling about Newlañds was quickly vindicated. The work ethic there was top- drawer, and the staff from management down were of the highest calibre and truly caring.
I would have no qualms about recommending this home to anyone thinking about plaçing a loved one in a care home.

Our friend was a resident until her death in early April. During her time there she received the most wonderful, professional care that anyone could wish.

Current Review Score: 7.9 (7.894)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 7.9 (7.894) out of 10 for Newlands Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.2 out of 5 from 1 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 4.667 for Newlands Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (8 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 4.667
  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 3.227 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Newlands Care Home is based on 1 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 = 3
    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 22 registered maximum number of service users is 4.4. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 4.4 = 0.227
  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.
