Review from Mandy P (Daughter of Resident) published on 22 November 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5
Overall we are happy with the care my father receives at Larkland House. The only main problem is the lack of disabled car park bays and as an idea think some of the lawn facing the reception doors should be taken back by about 4ft so that other cars can pass when there is an ambulance or doctor taxi
that often is parked outside the entrance door. On a few occasions, we have been stuck unable to get out for quite some time.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Hard working friendly staff always cheery, very helpful and welcoming. Coming to Larkland to visit is always a happy experience however I do feel it is understaffed at times as the staff seem to be doing three things at once but always selflessly. The rooms seem to be clean and orderly as are the toilets
etc. The food is imaginative and tasty. This is a good place.

It's always a real pleasure to visit my aunt in Larkland House. The staff are very caring and friendly and my aunt of 96 years is very well looked after. The Activities staff go out of their way to provide all sorts of interesting entertainment from outside and my aunt loves to take part in the quizzes,
arts and crafts, cooking, keep fit etc. She is now looking forward to their next trip out to lunch.

I felt there was a very happy atmosphere and I received great care. I only attended one session of the activities which I found very helpful.
I attended one Religious Service which I found very prayerful.
Thank you for all your care and concern.
I will remember you all in my prayers.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.667)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.667) out of 10 for Larkland House 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 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 Larkland House is calculated as follows: ( (203 Excellents x 5) + (43 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) + (8 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 258 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Larkland House is based on 21 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 55 registered maximum number of service users is 11, which has been reached with 21 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.

Job Title: Home Manager

I believe that being a Home Manager is about creating a warm environment, not only for residents but also for those who work in the home or visit.


I joined Care UK because I appreciate their culture and ethos of supporting residents to live fulfilling lives.


Ensuring compliance is at the forefront of my work at Larkland House is an important part of my role, but I also like to be involved in the day-to-day lives of the residents and team. Seeing their smiling faces gives me a big sense of achievement.


If the team are happy, this reflects on the residents. I’m proud to work with incredible people who want to make a difference in people’s lives. It’s fantastic when this hard work is recognised. In a previous role, I won awards for Manager of the Year and Dementia Team of the Year.


Outside of work, I love to travel with my husband. Travelling is very important to us. Family is equally important, and any spare time is spent with my granddaughter.
