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 4.275 for Meadbank Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (73 Excellents x 5) + (49 Goods x 4) + (31 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 153 Ratings = 4.275
b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 12 months. 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.
The 4.256 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Meadbank Care Home is based on 9 positive Reviews in the last 12 months and is calculated as follows:
3 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 = 4

My mother came into the home in June, she came from hospital, after spending six weeks there she was very frail and could be difficult at times. She was on the 1st floor where the carers were fantastic and very caring. In no time she returned to her old ways, singing, dancing and swearing. Right from reception throughout this home, they made my mother so happy. I cannot praise the whole staff enough.

When my mother was looking for a place, my wife and I looked at a number of homes. Suffice to say Meadbank was one of the best homes that there was. My mother is still there - she is 100. Unfortunately, she has terminal dementia and can't comment. I, as her son, visit every day and am pleased with the care and attention which she receives.

It's perfect for me and my husband. If there is a problem, I can always go the sister on floor 2 who is wonderful and in charge of floor 2. Marvellous lady and will sort things.
Very, very happy with the care and the ladies are very approachable and I can talk to them.

As a family, my two sisters and I are extremely happy with the care and support given to our eldest sister. The staff are very keen to help, from those on Reception to nursing and caring assistants. They have all taken time and effort to get to know our sister and her particular needs, putting into place a good package for her.
It is both encouraging and reassuring to know when we all live so far away, that our sister is happy and well cared for.

I find all the Carers on my mother's floor in Meadbank Care Home caring and helpful. Every time they come into my mother's room, they have a little joke with her, it makes her smile all the time. The Sister in charge on the 2nd floor is professional and gets the jobs done. I respect her. The people in the laundry room are so helpful if you have a problem they deal with it straight away. Receptionist nice helpful.

A good quality home with well lit, comfortable rooms and appropriate diet.
The range of residents is wide with everything from mild illness to terminal conditions.
The staff appear to cope well with these challenges.
I hope that if/when I need care I will have access to a home like this.
