Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The staff was incredible. Very helpful with everything. The manager was great. I was always able to call my uncle and speak to him. Everytime I came to visit him from America they made me feel like I was at home. Thank you to the wonderful staff who treated him so well. We love you all. Thank you again.

Review from Harvey M (Sister of Resident) published on 29 October 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The care and yes, I would say, affection shown to the patients and the obvious contentment of the residents is beyond my wildest dreams.
On a recent visit, I commented to my relative, that a carer (who was new and who had just left her room) that she was 'very nice' to which my sister promptly replied
"they are all wonderful".
Proof, indeed, if proof were needed.

I cannot praise the nursing home and staff enough. They have looked after my mother for a year now. They are caring, loving and positive, they meet all her care. The entertainment they put on for the residents and relatives was amazing. It was a joy to see the residents and family having fun in a relaxed
environment.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
He was in Carrick House for nearly four years and was very well cared for during his time there. The staff were always so pleasant and supportive, especially during Covid when he had very few visitors. As a bachelor, he had no immediate family living near, so we were all so pleased with the care that
he got from everyone here, and I know that he was very thankful for everything.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.977)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.977) out of 10 for Carrick House Nursing Home 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 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 11 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 4.977 for Carrick House Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (128 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 131 Ratings = 4.977
  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 Carrick House Nursing Home is based on 11 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 27 registered maximum number of service users is 5.4, which has been reached with 11 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.
