Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I always enjoyed coming in to see my husband on a daily basis. I was always made welcome by the staff and nurses always updated on any events within the home. My husband remained safe and comfortable to the end of his life.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My Mum came to Belle Vue after discharge from hospital. When she arrived she was frail and exhausted. One month on Mum is more independent, back to good health and happy and comfortable. The staff are so kind, friendly and caring - cannot fault them. The home has an open, homely and welcome atmosphere.
I feel part of the home as a relative.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We are always impressed with the standard of care/facilities/food in this home. Recently we have seen numerous very favourable improvements to the latter, however, this month our visit was enhanced by the invitation to share in a special Valentine's roast lamb lunch, cooked to absolute perfection by
the exceptional chef. The food was superbly created and wonderfully delicious! Thank you!

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.781)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.781) out of 10 for Belle Vue Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 30 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 29 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 4.781 for Belle Vue Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (299 Excellents x 5) + (39 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) + (5 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 351 Ratings = 4.781
  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 Belle Vue Care Home is based on 29 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 52 registered maximum number of service users is 10.4, which has been reached with 29 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.
