* Care Quality Commission is responsible for the registration and inspection of social care services in England.
The Review Score of 9.4 (maximum of 10) for Banbury Heights Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.4 out of 5 from 22 Reviews over all time. This Average Rating is also the rating value for Banbury Heights Nursing Home in Google's Search Results - more info
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5 out of 5 from 14 positive Reviews in the last 12 months.
a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating of all Reviews over all time. 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 4.445 for Banbury Heights Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (141 Excellents x 5) + (89 Goods x 4) + (25 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 256 Ratings = 4.445
b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 12 months. If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. 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.
If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. The calculation is the same as above, except the points are divided by 2.
The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Banbury Heights Nursing Home is based on 14 positive Reviews in the last 12 months and is calculated as follows:
3 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 = 4
Target of 11.8 positive Reviews (59 registered maximum number of service users ÷ 5). 14 Reviews ÷ 11.8 Target Reached = 1
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
Banbury Heights Nursing Home has a Review Score of 9.4 (9.445) from 22 Reviews

Dear Mrs C,
Thank you for your feedback and we are extremely glad that you found the staff caring and attentive. We have noticed that you listed the rooms as poor in your review and we will look to redecorate the room that your mother was in to improve this.

My mother spent the last two months of her life at Banbury Heights Nursing Home. The whole staff were professional, compassionate, patient and kind. They took great care of my mum and provided exactly the right level of care. Their communication with me was excellent. I would unequivocally recommend Banbury Heights Nursing Home to any family in the same situation.

Dad spent a couple of weeks at Banbury Heights and from what I saw of the home it was truly exceptional. Staff were excellent, food was very good and the place itself was exceptional. Given the horror stories one hears about residential homes, this place was without doubt exceptional.

Review submitted from a Website Submission by Joanna M (Daughter of Resident) on Thursday 27 July 2017. Relates to December 2016.
Very knowledgeable Nursing staff that lead the overall staff team well. Ensuring that all staff are attentive and respectful to residents. Personally, it was nice for my Dad to have male staff on duty too. The home also has a brilliant 'activities' team, organising some truly memorable days and events that the whole family are invited to.
THANK YOU for all you did!!

My mother spent 4 years at Banbury Heights and in all that time, was cared for very well. When she dies at the end of May 2017, their compassion and care from the staff was excellent. We spent as much time as we wanted with my dying mother and family. She died very peacefully and with dignity. Overall, the home was excellent.

Review submitted from a Postal Card by D S (Son of Resident) on Tuesday 13 June 2017. Relates to June 2017.
I live in Australia but phoned mum regularly.
Each time I did the staff were always helpful and cheerful.
When mum became ill they spoke to us about her with genuine concern.
We visited the home on mum's death and found the staff compassionate.
We looked through the home and found it clean and inviting.
The staff knew who I was from the many phone calls and offered genuine symapathy.
On the whole, I was happy with where mum spent the last few years of her life.

My mother tells me every day how happy she is and how caring the staff are.
After the first few months of my mother's residence at the home, my daughter told me, "I am not sure what to do, I have never had to deal with a really happy Nan before!"

Banbury Heights Nursing Home was used for my father's rehabilitation that he so needed after spending a long period of time in the hospital. The care provided was of a high standard towards my father. The carers and nurses were very kind caring, friendly and considerate towards my father and us as a family. We were always made welcome and cannot fault the care that was provided.

For the past year, my mother has been a resident of Banbury Heights, the first five moths with her husband. Upon his death, the staff have helped her to move on, join in, become a new person. It is hard to find fault with the care that she gets.
She is very happy in herself, the carers encourage her to enjoy her life and help her with all her needs. She tells me she feels safe.

Review submitted from a Postal Card by Sue G (Daughter of Resident) on Thursday 26 May 2016. Relates to May 2016.
My mother spent 8 weeks at the nursing home following her discharge from hospital. The care and support she received was excellent from the whole team. My mother initially was unable to do any of her personal care and had to rely on support from male and female staff. My mum felt that she was treated with respect and her dignity managed under the circumstances.
