Review from P R (Son of Resident) published on 11 May 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Knights' Grove is a modern and comfortable care home with the outstanding asset being the staff. They undertake a challenging and difficult job, but undoubtedly always put the care of the residents at the forefront of everything they do. My 95-year-old mother is always treated with dignity and respect
and is very well cared for. I had my concerns, before my mother went into care, that she would be unhappy and sad at not living in her own home anymore. Six months since moving into Knights' Grove and she never mentions her house at all as she has settled in so well and is enjoying the company of others. I would recommend Knights' Grove to anyone, especially for the quality of the staff.

Thank you for your review. Glad to hear that your mum has settled in so well and made new friends. I will pass your comments on to the home manager. The Bupa Customer Care team.

Home appears to be clean and well staffed and give care with patience in not always easy circumstances. I have not experienced the food personally but have heard no complaints.

Very good care with good staff and good facilities. I would like to see more 'sensory' activities for the residents with late-stage Alzheimer's.

Review from S C (Partner of Resident) published on 5 May 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
When the regular team of staff are in duty - everything runs smoothly. My partner is now in the latter stages of Lewy Body Dementia. He needs all care and the staff are very caring. Nothing is too much trouble.
If the trained staff are concerned at all, they always contact me and if there has been
a doctor's visit, I am always updated. I do notice, however, when agency staff are used, the standard of care falls. I do realise that this is not what the home wants and they are prioritising in recruiting. Continuity of staff of very important when dealing with dementia residents.

Review from B H (Husband of Resident) published on 26 April 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My wife has now been in Knights Grove Care Home for about 5months, during that time I have visited most days.
I claim no expertise in assessing care homes, but so far as I can tell, the standard of care provided is high and I am satisfied that my wife is being looked after well.

Thank you for your kind feedback, we really appreciate it. I am pleased that you are happy with Knights Grove and the care your wife is receiving. The Bupa Customer Care Team.

Review from Helen C (Daughter of Resident) published on 5 February 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My mother has been in the home for six years and during that time we have seen almost as many managers come and go. There is no doubt that the standard in a home depends on the quality of the manager. The current manager is good as was the previous one but that wasn't always the case, especially when
there was no manager a few years ago and then a deputy stepped into the breach - the standards plummeted. Happily the home is now greatly improved and my mother is very happy here. I too value the home and the staff who are kind and caring. They have taken the trouble to get to know their residents and try to make the place feel homely, inviting and relaxing for them. There is always room for improvement and I am glad that our new manager has ideas and vision for the place which hopefully will be implemented before too long.

My mothers needs are fully understood. I am happy she is living in a safe and clean environment. The staff are very friendly and caring towards her. Although she often does not want to eat or drink, the staff spend a lot of time encouraging her to do so with positive results.

A very caring, knowledgable and clean organisation that understood my Mother's needs. They provided first class residential facilities with a human touch, she felt it was her home. She was well looked after and the staff were excellent.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.952)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.952) out of 10 for Knights' Grove Care 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 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 4.952 for Knights' Grove Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (179 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 188 Ratings = 4.952
  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 Knights' Grove Care Home is based on 16 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 56 registered maximum number of service users is 11.2, which has been reached with 16 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.
