Kingsgate Care home is providing a wonderful service. My father has vascular dementia and also isn't mobile and the care he is given provides a safe environment. Support for his needs and overall an excellent standard of care. The home is homely, clean, safe and the staff are extremely pleasant and
supportive of the family as well as their residents. I would highly recommend this care provider to families who need similar care.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.892)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.892) out of 10 for Kingsgate Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.892 for Kingsgate Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (118 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 130 Ratings = 4.892

  • 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 Kingsgate Care 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:

    • 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 43 registered maximum number of service users is 8.6, which has been reached with 11 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.

Job Title: Registered Manager

Joined: 2018

I become the Deputy Manager of Kingsgate Care Home in 2018 and registered as the Registered Manager in January 2024. I have worked in care since 2010 starting out as a care assistant moving on to Senior Care assistant, Training Manager, Deputy Manager. I had lots of opportunities through my time in the care industry and took them with both hands. My passion is caring for others, treating others how I would like to be treated with dignity and respect. I practice an open door policy so anyone can come and talk to me whenever they need to, this is important to me it gives relatives the time and support they also need, supporting them through difficult challenging times is also a priority to me as well as their loved ones.
