Review from Jan N (Daughter of Resident) published on 18 July 2019 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My experience is good staff and helpful and dad seems well. The meals he says are not always hot so when they are not hot, he tends not to eat them and for some reason, he doesn't tell the staff. Also, when he rings his call bell (not very often), they take a long time to come.

Dear Jan, Thank you for your review. We take your comments seriously and will discuss this with your dad and the team. Please do not hesitate to speak with the management team in the first instance when you have any concerns.

Review from Leslie Z (Daughter of Resident) published on 10 July 2019 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Consistent and caring support. A stable nursing group who do a wonderful job of caring for our father. They are cognisant of the need to maintain patients/residents dignity and professionalism while still being friendly and good communicators. Our father tends not to use many of the activities provided
hence the satisfactory rating. He reads and listens to music which is his preference.

Review from D T (Daughter of Resident) published on 10 June 2019 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5
The staff are always friendly and appear to know mum well.
One of the resident lounge rooms appears to be closed for use (by the main entrance). Our family try to get together for occasions with mum and that room is always beneficial to her and us. Private, comfortable. We always leave it as we find
it. Wonder if it is no longer accessible to residents.
Reply from Dennis Tahalele, Area & Compliance Manager at Clare Hall Nursing Home

Dear Deb, Thank you for your review. I can confirm that the lounge is available to residents and their families/relatives but the lounge was extensively refurbished. Please do speak to a member of the management team if you have any further queries.

Review from C H (Husband of Resident) published on 6 June 2019 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My wife is totally disabled with MS and despite refusing food and drink and medicines at times for most of the last year due to the MS now affecting her brain, her care is, to say the least, dedicated. She is always clean and tidy and her feeding needs are pandered to. The staff are always smiling,
happy and warm to me and other relatives.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Mum has been in the care home for 16 years. The staff have been very caring, kind and always with respect, privacy and dignity to Mum. The staff always keep me informed by phone or in person of any changes in Mum's condition, doctors visits or any other issues, which is reassuring. Mum is happy to stay
in her room with her TV and enjoys seeing her grandchildren.

I have lived at Clare Hall for almost 7 years. I am settled here and receive excellent care. All the staff are caring and my room and bed are comfortable and clean. I have a good selection of meals. I would always recommend Clare Hall Nursing Home.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.585)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.585) out of 10 for Clare Hall Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 10 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 4.708 for Clare Hall Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (85 Excellents x 5) + (35 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 120 Ratings = 4.708
  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 4.877 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Clare Hall Nursing Home is based on 10 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 57 registered maximum number of service users is 11.4. 10 Positive Reviews ÷ 11.4 = 0.877
  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.
