Review from J G (Husband of Resident) published on 1 February 2019 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Nightingale Nursing Home caters for the care of elderly people who are unable to live without assistance and guidance for all aspects of their welfare. The staff provide a personal service, embracing a wide range of care, from total care of bed confined patients to those with age-related issues needing
support with mental and physical disabilities.
The accommodation is excellent and for those requiring social contact, stimulating activities are provided by staff and outside support.
Visitors are made welcome. When, as inevitable, end of life is experienced, attention to patients at this time is conducted with calm dignity and respect in an efficient manner.

We were so lucky to have found Nightingale Nursing Home for our aunt. She was a long-term resident and right up to her last day in the home she was treated with loving care and dignity. All the staff were brilliant and became not only family to her but good friend to us.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I can honestly say every member of staff, at all times, have been very pleasant and helpful.
I visited for over three years and in that time, I cannot remember one time I heard a raised voice over a resident.

I found the staff very pleasant and friendly, they always had time to speak to you and let us know that the patients are doing well. No complaints whatsoever. They do a grand job.

My wife has been in the above nursing home for over four years.
I have found all the staff to be good and caring, friendly and professional and would recommend the home.
There is minimal turnover of staff, thus guaranteeing we see the same friendly faces.

Nightingale's looks after my mother in an exemplary manner. The care is kind, efficient and professional and delivered in a very relaxed manner. All the staff go out of their way to make both residents and visitors feel at home.
Thank you.
I do not believe we could have found a better home.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has been at Nightingale for about 18 months now and the care she has been given is beyond all our expectations. Everyone from the owners, manager, and all the carers have also made us so welcome, we feel like part of a big family and I do not think she could be in better hands. The food is
excellent, the nursing care is excellent and the staff could not be better.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother spent six weeks in the home and sadly died whilst there. The staff could not have been more attentive, caring and considerate of her needs whilst in their care. They treated her with respect and dignity throughout. She was always given the upmost attention. Their concern for her as an individual
person was holistic. Despite losing our dear mum we know she was in the best hands, so thank you Nightingale!

Current Review Score: 9.1 (9.092)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.1 (9.092) out of 10 for Nightingale Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.3 out of 5 from 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 8 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 4.292 for Nightingale Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (42 Excellents x 5) + (34 Goods x 4) + (11 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 89 Ratings = 4.292
  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 4.8 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Nightingale Nursing Home is based on 8 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 = 3.8
    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 35 registered maximum number of service users is 7, which has been reached with 8 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.
