There are comfortable armchairs in the lounge for those who want to watch TV. The hairdresser's room is just off the lounge and is very popular with lady residents who may have their hair washed and styled once per week.
In spring and summer, residents may go out in the garden. There is a summer fete once per year and resident may invite their friends.
The resident cat is very popular.
Outings by car to the botanic gardens are laid on for residents who are able to go. There is a church service every Sunday, to which residents are invited. 3 meals per day are very good. The home is very well organised and I am happy to provide this review.

Reply from RICHARD LAWSON, HOME MANAGER at Cherry Hinton Care Home
I would like to acknowledge the review posted by BB with respect to her Father and his brief time with us in our home. Whilst I cannot agree with the content of the review, I do thoroughly support everyone's right to express their personal views. Equally, I am very pleased to have the opportunity to offer a frank and honest response, and to clarify some of the details raised.
As the Home Manager, I have spent many hours talking and sharing with BB, as I have done and continue to do with all members of our community, be they residents, families and their loved ones or our own team members. I did not have to apologise at any stage for the cleanliness of BB's Father, as this was not an issue. We recognise the crucial importance of cleanliness and indeed dignity to the very essence of the quality of life of each and every one of our residents, and the impact that this also has on their loved ones. It will always continue to be one of our highest priorities.
In more general terms, we are able to offer a number of different spaces for our residents and their families to be able to spend quality time together. There are two different spacious lounges, (including one with a reminiscence 1950's theme), on the first floor, and another well appointed lounge on the ground floor. These are also supplemented by a conservatory which in itself also leads to our extensive gardens offering a lovely space for all to enjoy.
Our home will always strive to offer the dignity, time, respect and the sensitive and appropriate care that our residents and their loved ones deserve and have the absolute right to expect. Equally, respectful and sensitive care is also about maximising and facilitating the choices our residents make, and wherever possible to enable and sustain that process and ability. We also understand that being forced to make a decision on behalf of your Mother, or indeed Father, to perhaps leave family care and their home, and to enter a long term care setting is one of the most emotionally challenging that can be faced in a lifetime... Let's face it, our home is welcoming, friendly, safe, secure and loving, but not the one that folks have spent perhaps the last 30, 40, 50 or 60 years in! Many people express their feelings in many different ways - we get it.
Suffice to say, we are pleased to be able to 'set the record straight', and continue to assure all our residents, their families and loved ones of our total and honest commitment to real quality, real care, and making a real difference to the lives of real people.

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.910) out of 10 for Cherry Hinton Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 41 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 41 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.
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 4.910 for Cherry Hinton Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (439 Excellents x 5) + (37 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 479 Ratings = 4.91
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 Cherry Hinton Care Home is based on 41 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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, which has been reached with 41 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.
