For each review the Care Home / service is rated Excellent, Good, Satisfactory, Poor or Very Poor on a number of areas eg Staff, Management etc. The Care Home receives points for each rating as follows: Excellent = 5. Good = 4. Satisfactory = 3. Poor = 2. Very Poor = 1. These points are added up and then divided by the total number of completed ratings to generate the average rating.
The Average Rating of 4.683 for Northlands House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (43 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 60 Ratings = 4.683

A Positive Review is defined as any Review with 'Extremely Likely' or 'Likely' in answer to the question 'How likely are you to recommend this Care Home to friends and family if they needed similar care or treatment?'
The 5 points available are broken down as follows:
4 points are available for the first 5 Positive Reviews, 3 points for the first Positive Review and then 0.25 Points for each of the next 4 Positive Reviews.
1 point is available for reaching a target number of Positive Reviews based on 20% of the number of registered maximum number of service users. If the target is partially reached then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home with 50 registered maximum number of service users has a target of 10 Positive Reviews, if it has 10 or more Positive Reviews it will receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews will receive 0.7 points.

My cousin had to come and stay at Northlands House Care Home while my aunty was in a hospital. I had to write to you to let you know how impressed we all were with the whole experience. The room was spotless the food was fantastic but most of all every member of staff we approached for anything, we were greeted with kindness and professionalism, experience and care. The manager couldn't be more helpful. There is also so much to do for the clients. The improvement of speech and mobility when my cousin left was enormous.

I find this a fantastic environment here - it hits you directly when you come in the front door. You are made to feel welcome and that is very important to me. I really like it that the receptionist and the customer adviser take the time to talk to me. Everybody I've met here are very caring and want to be personally involved with me. My wife has now settled very well in the home.
