Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother seems very happy I am very happy with the help that the staff give my mum and one to one feeding her and bathing and her general welfare. The home is very clean and well maintained inside and out. Her medical care is very good too and my overall outlook is that the staff are all very committed
people and makes a very well run home.

Review from Pat M (Daughter of Resident) published on 23 November 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum was here on her 3rd respite visit. Staff seem very caring and activities keep her entertained and busy which she loves. Food is good and rooms are clean. Well done! When collected and totally unprompted or questioned, she volunteered the following to staff in front of me. "I've been very happy here".
This is a wonderful testament to the staff and also reassuring for me. She willingly hugs staff when saying 'hello' and 'goodbye'. I have total confidence in leaving Mum in Silk Court's care. Staff are very patient.

My mother is totally happy with her accommodations, staff, food and the respect and dignity she is afforded. She has only praise for the staff and the way she is looked after. All her family are pleased that she is happy and enjoying her days there at Silk Court.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.861)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.861) out of 10 for Silk Court is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 28 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 28 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 4.861 for Silk Court is calculated as follows: ( (280 Excellents x 5) + (41 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 323 Ratings = 4.861
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Silk Court is based on 28 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 + 0.1 = 4
    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 51 registered maximum number of service users is 10.2, which has been reached with 28 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.
