Dear Colin. We are glad we have looked after your mum, but unfortunately for a few days only. We would have loved to have had your mum here for a longer time. I am glad I have met you and your lovely family. Please come in for the open day on 23rd June.

Reply from Ana Ciobotaru, Manager at Barchester Ashby House Care Home
I was obviously concerned to read your comments and fully respect your concerns. However, I believe your review relates to a period prior to my arrival in the home and as you know, we have been making a number of changes in recent months. We have consulted with our residents and their families on those changes and I would be very happy for you to visit myself at any time so that I can outline these to you. I have an open door policy and would be happy to discuss any further ideas and suggestions you might have.

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.632) out of 10 for Barchester Ashby House Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 30 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 29 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.
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:
a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.
The Average Rating of 4.632 for Barchester Ashby House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (245 Excellents x 5) + (92 Goods x 4) + (10 Satisfactorys x 3) + (6 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 353 Ratings = 4.632
b) 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 Barchester Ashby House Care Home is based on 29 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:
The 5 points available are broken down as follows:
i) 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
ii) 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 64 registered maximum number of service users is 12.8, which has been reached with 29 Positive reviews. Points = 1
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
