Review from John S (Nephew of Resident) published on 25 January 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My aunt was resident in Mill House for three and a half years, until her death on 13 January 2016. She reached the right old age of 92 years. When she entered the home she was not in a good state of health at all. She had been unable to care for herself properly for a very long time and had been in
denial regarding the need for more help. The Manager all her staff have been wonderful. They nursed her back to an acceptable state of health, sadly she was never going to return to the person we all knew and loved. All the staff showed such care and compassion along with a high degree of patience, as my aunt was not always the easiest of people to look after. When her time finally came, we were able to be with her. The staff were very caring and this resulted in my aunt being able to die with dignity, something she would probably not have been able to do, if she had been in her own home. If she had not agreed to enter the home in 2012 she would have died in 2012. She was very ill.
Although my aunt would not join in any of the communal activities, this was not for the want of trying by the staff. They did try on numerous occasions. She did enjoy having her hair done.
For someone who is in the same situation as my aunt, we would have no hesitation to recommend Mill House to anyone.
We cannot thank the Manager and all her staff enough.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.583)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.583) out of 10 for Mill House Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 14 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 4.733 for Mill House Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (127 Excellents x 5) + (32 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 165 Ratings = 4.733
  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 4.85 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Mill House Nursing Home is based on 14 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 3.85
    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 34 registered maximum number of service users is 6.8, which has been reached with 14 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.
