I've provided the ratings to the best of my ability but obviously only see what's happening during visits. My stepdad has had a few falls whilst being here, which is a little concerning, also seems to spend lots of time alone.

Due to my lifestyle I do not visit often, but communications via telephone or email has been very good.
When I am able to visit, staff have all been friendly and helpful.
My mum, even when she is confused, seems to have settled well, and is slowly showing signs of her old-self.
Thank you to all staff
at Maidstone Care Centre.

Review from L R (Daughter-in-law of Resident) published on 11 June 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
We had a very poor experience with Maidstone Care Centre. My father-in-law was discharged from the hospital there. He was not given a shower/bath/hair wash for 8 weeks, he was encouraged to 'go in his pad' when he asked to use the toilet. Clients are not sat up at the table for meals but instead given
a tray on their lap. They are not regularly toileted. We witnessed very rough manual handling of another client and also saw another lady undress in the lounge, and staff did nothing to stop her, cover her up or maintain her dignity, despite the fact we were in there with our teenage sons. So very sad to see. Luckily we moved my father-in-law to a much better home.

Rochester suite is a depressing, poorly run unit. Staffing levels are inadequate and not conducive to building any relationships with residents. Record keeping is inaccurate and incomplete. There is no accountability for the remote GP ward rounds, resulting in serious medical neglect. Recommend before
allowing your relative be admitted here you check which floor they will be on.

I find the care good for my mum and she is made to feel comfortable and her needs are met. She has a good spacious room with a great outlook. The staff at the home are both friendly and efficient and it has a good feel around the home. The facilities are good although she is unable to make the most
of them.

Dear Robert, we take great pleasure in hearing that your mum feels comfortable and is being catered to well. Creating a welcoming and supportive atmosphere is a priority for us, and we're glad that it reflects in the overall feel of the home.

Review from Roderic H (Husband of Resident) published on 25 January 2024 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My wife has now been in Maidstone Care Centre for over two years and for this, I am very grateful. The standard of care my wife receives is first class, not just for its professionalism but it's administered with affection and open friendliness. In the past two years, my wife has been free of infection,
not even a cold. The food given is done so with a concern for what my wife would like as well as what would be in her best interest. Long may it continue.
Reply from Sia Lebbie, Reviews Team at Maidstone Care Centre

Dear Roderic, we are deeply grateful for your thoughtful and positive review. It warms our hearts to hear that your wife has been a part of the Maidstone Care Centre for over two years, and we sincerely appreciate your trust in us. The acknowledgement of the first-class care provided is truly heartening, and we're delighted to have created an environment that feels welcoming for both residents and their loved ones. We also appreciate your mention of the consideration given to her food preferences, reflecting our dedication to personalised care. We look forward to continuing to provide exceptional care for your wife.

Review from Suzi P (Daughter of Resident) published on 23 January 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
When my Mother first came to Maidstone Care Centre in September I felt we had been lied to as it definitely didn't live up to what we had been told when viewing Maidstone Care. At the time there was a temporary manager and for the first six weeks, I would go as far as to say my Mother was being neglected.
This all changed when a new lady became manager we had a few 'heated' meetings but she asked me to give her some time to turn things around and in a very short time she did exactly that. She runs this care home with strong leadership but also with caring and empathy. If possible I would clone the carers as these ladies go beyond what is expected of them and every care home needs the likes of them. There is also a good relationship not just with my Mother but with myself and the manager's door is always open.
Reply from Sia Lebbie, Reviews Team at Maidstone Care Centre

Dear Suzi,
We genuinely appreciate your candid feedback and the time you took to share your experience with us. We regret that your initial impression did not align with the expectations set during the viewing, and we apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused. We acknowledge the challenges faced during the transitional period, and we appreciate your patience and understanding. We understand the crucial role our carers play in providing exceptional care, and we appreciate your recognition of their efforts. We are also pleased that the current manager is demonstrating strong leadership with care and empathy, fostering a positive environment within the care home. We value your input and are dedicated to continually improving the care and services we provide.

Mum has been in the home for a year now and I am delighted with the care she has received throughout her time here. The staff will always take time to discuss any issues or leave a message. I appreciate that staff will not push residents to do things but with lots of staff dealing with mum, some were
not aware they should call me if she declined a bath/washing - a note on her file would have avoided this and ensured mum was bathed - Issue now resolved.

Review from Deborah H (Daughter-in-law of Resident) published on 11 December 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 2.0 out of 5
First impressions were good but soon realised how short-staffed this home is which impacts on care. My relative was found slumped in her bed and dehydrated as lack of staff to attend to her in the mornings or even open the curtains. Record keeping is poor, test results not recorded and we weren't kept
informed. No medical records could be found for Paramedics. My relative sadly passed away and we were left to it with no support or even offered a cup of tea as we had not had anything to eat or drink. We were told to clear the room as soon as she had passed. No contact after and they held on to funds for 3 months that were provided for extras. Only then sent to us as we questioned it, not sure how long it would have been kept for. Admin is therefore inadequate and follow-up care for the relatives after death is non-existent.

Excellent service and exceptional care for my mum. The nursing care was professional, thorough and so kind. The healthcare assistants treated my mum with great care and dignity. The activities team encouraged my mum to participate, which is essential for her mobility and are a real asset to the wellbeing
of the residents. My only disappointment was the laundry service - lots of missing items never to be found despite labelled with name and room!

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Recently, under new management, residents and their families have been assured that any concerns and suggestions for improvement will be heard and acted upon if at all possible. New, permanent staff replacing agency help, especially at weekends, have been trained and introduced. All staff, from office
to carers are very helpful and available. The lifestyle staff make a great difference to residents' well-being and it would be a huge benefit for this to be extended more to cover weekends.
The home is always warm, welcoming, clean and bright, thanks to the efforts of the maintenance and domestic team. Food and drink are plentiful and the catering staff provide a really appetising range of meals and snacks. Entertainment is first-class and always engages residents who want to participate. Overall, a very good environment for loved ones to be cared for.

Review from Daran S (Son of Resident) published on 5 October 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5
My Mother was placed at Maidstone Care Home two years ago. There have been 3 changes of management since then - the most recent not being communicated. The last manager provided much assurance on changes to full-time dedicated staffing as opposed to ongoing agency staff. This did begin to show improvement
so hopefully will continue. Overall the level of care and attention from the staff for my mother is good. However, the facilities are average to poor. Her room is somewhat shabby, lacking attention to maintenance issues. Having seen others, there is no consistency. The events team deserves to be fully praised for their engagement and caring approach to residents as individuals. They always make time for a catch-up chat when I visit ad-hoc. The company suffers from a lack of administration which is noted in external audits. Minutes from Relative Meetings have never been sent as promised. There is much that is good at the Care Home but much room for improvement on basic services.
Reply from Abigail Draper, Customer Relations Team at Maidstone Care Centre

Thank you for taking the time to review & share your experience of the service. We understand a change in management can be unsettling for families & residents. There has been a recent recruitment drive to reduce the use of agency & hope to appoint into our vacant care hours & minimise any use of agency. Thank you for sharing that the care & attention your mother receives is good. Our staff have a reputation for being very caring towards our residents, & care is a big part of our ethos. We’re currently undergoing a schedule of works & are also updating some furnishings. If you discover any maintenance issues when you visit, please do raise these with staff. Thank you for sharing your experience with our lifestyle team. They are very dedicated to making our residents' lives happy. We endeavour to get all minutes from meetings delivered within 24 hours. We acknowledge that this has not always been the case & take your comment on board as an area for improvement.

Dad seems to be in same clothes and hardly ever shaved and smells. Overall it's not a bad place but I do have issues. We put my dad in the home due to the old manager singing its praises, but he has left and not really been told why and not met new manager. The nurse who used to keep me informed also
seems to have gone, so I can't comment on new nurses and can't really comment on care staff, I don't really see them. One lady who does stand out is very happy and good with my dad but dad does seem OK being there. Bedsheets are always dirty.

Current Review Score: 9.1 (9.086)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.1 (9.086) out of 10 for Maidstone Care Centre is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.1 out of 5 from 39 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 31 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 4.086 for Maidstone Care Centre is calculated as follows: ( (215 Excellents x 5) + (141 Goods x 4) + (49 Satisfactorys x 3) + (20 Poors x 2) + (29 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 454 Ratings = 4.086
  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 Maidstone Care Centre is based on 31 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 58 registered maximum number of service users is 11.6, which has been reached with 31 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.
