  • Resthaven Care Home, Stroud
Resthaven offers 24 hours of residential and nursing care set amidst some of the finest countryside in Gloucestershire with panoramic views over the Painswick valley.

The care is nurse-led 24 hours a day and is unusual in the high level of qualified nurses (including mental health nurses) that are on every shift. The team has deep knowledge and understanding of dementia care and end of life care.

Each resident has a named nurse and carer who work closely with residents and families to create a person centred plan of care which is constantly reviewed. The home works closely with a multi-disciplinary team of external health professionals including doctors, specialist nurses and the NHS rapid response team to ensure every resident’s care needs are met and unnecessary hospital admissions are avoided.

Resthaven is fully accessible. All rooms have washing facilities and some include ensuite facilities or wet rooms. Residents are welcome to add furnishings and personal belongings to make their room their own.

The home offers a variety of communal areas: lounges, dining area conservatory and a chapel, with many areas enjoying the panoramic views. The tranquil grounds are a haven for wildlife and have the pleasure of watching the rich birdlife, rabbits, foxes and even deer from the home. The patios are fully accessible and there are plenty of paths to explore.

The catering team provide fresh, nutritious home cooked food and are skilled at adapting the menu for different dietary requirements and for those with swallowing difficulties.

The activities team work both individually and in groups to offer varied, stimulating and enriching activities which include visiting musicians and entertainers, arts & crafts, gardening, games, gentle exercise and trips out.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
A small friendly and efficiently run care home. Very friendly staff. Clean tidy rooms with privacy respected. 24 hour care with very qualified nursing staff. Family and relatives made to feel welcome and kept well informed. Odd nightly problems sometimes as you always get anywhere.

  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 20 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 4.664 for Resthaven Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (158 Excellents x 5) + (70 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 232 Ratings = 4.664
  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 Resthaven Care Home is based on 20 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 42 registered maximum number of service users is 8.4, which has been reached with 20 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.
