Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I think we all recognise how difficult it is making the decision to choose the right care home for your family member and to hopefully get the best care for them, especially if you’re not always locally enough to visit all the time. The home is well-run and clean and offers a huge number of activities
but what stands out is, without doubt, the staffing team. Our family member is in the dementia unit but he also has nursing issues which are looked after too. He arrived in March and has been there five weeks and since he arrived he has been so well cared for. All the team from admin and reception to the nursing and care team have shown so much kindness, empathy and understanding not only to our family member but also to us, the family. As soon as you enter the home you are greeted with warmth and friendliness by all the staff - it has a very homely feeling. Our family member is always clean, tidy and smartly dressed - and is very happy.

Sadly I do not feel able to leave a positive review as my mother has not had the best experience at the home. I appreciate we were very fortunate to get a place during the first lockdown. On the whole, the staff are lovely.

Review from Jacqui S (Daughter of Resident) published on 18 January 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My 95-year-old mother has been staying at Chestnut View Care Home since May 2020 and has been very well looked after.
There has been a change in management since she arrived (the previous manager was a superstar!) and inevitably the pandemic has been challenging times for the care home with many changes
in the team as you would expect, however, I have always felt that the carers are very attentive with my mother and they have gone out of their way to keep her comfortable and happy.
My mother always seems content, not anxious, there is a lovely, friendly atmosphere every time I visit and I am very grateful to the staff there who work 24/7 and their dedication clearly shines through for all the residents they look after, including my dear elderly mother.
I would wholeheartedly recommend Chestnut View to anyone looking for a relative.

All in all, I am quite happy with the care given to my mother. Whenever I have had a problem they have addressed it. I would like to see them take my mother down to the lounge more often but she can be quite stubborn, a little cajoling would help. My mum looks healthy and seems happy. I have always
found the staff very accommodating.

Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5
My experience was that the staff at the home, in most cases, went out of their way to make my husband happy and comfortable during his stay but his deteriorating mobility made it difficult for them. Because he was not always able to go to the lounge for the activities he could not always have the interaction
he needed, someone to come and talk to him more when he was bedbound (I visited him every day) and I know shortages of staff made this difficult and also Covid regulations. (Perhaps volunteer visitors now?).

My father was a resident in the home for just over a year. He arrived during the Covid-19 restriction period from a situation where we spent most of the day alone. Before he arrived, he was lonely, bored and unhappy, within the home he was very happy and joined in the activities - he was treated by
the staff with compassion and dignity, well-fed and felt secure. Some major improvements were made to the management of the home during his stay.

We went through many things with managers and were promised that all would be accommodated easily. Unfortunately, the carers either didn't get the message, didn't understand or didn't care.
Left in bed often until late morning or dressed earlier and put back to bed.
Food was inedible.
Staff told
my dad that we had complained. Lost clothes, still not returned.
Very disappointed.

Mum started off on the nursing floor two weeks before lockdown. I wasn't impressed. The nurses were lovely but lack of socialisation and person-centred care. After a couple of months, Mum moved down to Pastimes dementia unit. She has flourished and is on the whole very happy, walking a lot and joining
in with activities etc. Staff are lovely and Mum has struck up a rapport with them. Haven't seen Mum's room and can't answer some questions.

Since the lockdown and easing, I have been able, on an appointment basis, to visit my husband in a "secluded" room, two-meter distancing, wearing a mask. An attendant from home available during the visit. I find this has been extremely well organised and was and am impressed by how well the home coped
with this pandemic. First-class

I cannot comment on the care home other than the visitor's lounge. I started to visit again in June once restrictions were eased post COVID-19. The team have all been very welcoming and friendly. The protocols for visiting are very clear and well organised. Everywhere is spotlessly clean and beautifully
furnished.

Chestnut View is a lovely care home, with very attentive staff who create a safe, happy environment for all. I have never seen my grandmother look so happy - and that, for me, is all that matters.
Warm-hearted, upbeat staff, great sense of humour who create such a home-like environment - it feels
like they are their own little happy family.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.500)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.500) out of 10 for Chestnut View Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 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 4.500 for Chestnut View Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (97 Excellents x 5) + (61 Goods x 4) + (12 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 170 Ratings = 4.5
  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 Chestnut View Care 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 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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, 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.
