The care of the residents is extremely good, and I can't fault the staff, as they bend over backwards to look after them. The activities are always different each day and most enjoyable even for family members. I would most definitely recommend The Red House.

As a friend of a resident I have had chances to visit Red House and be with my friend. Also, I have got chances to talk to the care staff. My friend is extremely happy to live there and enjoys each moment of her life. The staff are very caring and passionate about working there. Her artistic interests
are promoted by the home. I attended an art exhibition conducted by her which was organised by the home on her behalf. Her birthday was celebrated with pomp by the home. The general atmosphere at the home is very lively and stimulating. The food served is really tasty. My friend has never felt that she was in a care home. Instead she says she was lucky to be there. She likes the social life there and loves to live there until her last. The residents are entertained in various ways and they are encouraged to do gardening, knitting, engage in group activities, watch movies, live shows, floral arrangements, etc. It's a safe and secure place. Overall, it's a class apart.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.811)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.811) out of 10 for Aurem Care (The Red House) is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.811 for Aurem Care (The Red House) is calculated as follows: ( (117 Excellents x 5) + (25 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 143 Ratings = 4.811

  • b) 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 Aurem Care (The Red House) is based on 12 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 26 registered maximum number of service users is 5.2, which has been reached with 12 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
