My mother has been at the care home for just over a year (following her hospitalisation after a fall and belated diagnosis of Parkinson's). I have always found the staff to be extremely friendly, caring and patient with all the service users. It is particularly telling, I think, that the carers do things
like buy easter chicks out of their own income and quirky leaving presents for service users if they are going to another job. The nursing and administrative staff are also friendly and helpful.

I can say I am very happy here, the food is not bad, confident I have everything I need. Activities are very good, also recently went on a coach trip to Bluebell Woods which was gorgeous. Lots of quizzes and games which I enjoy. Wouldn't be happy if I wasn't here. I am confident if I feel ill that I
will get the right attention from nurses and proper medical help if needed.

My mother final months suffering from vascular dementia, were made so very happy for her and the immediate family. The staff were always very caring, helpful and informative as mum's illness progressed. All mum's dietary needs were met thoughtfully and her declining mental capacity dealt with with the
utmost compassion, dignity and care. I was kept informed of any issues promptly and openly with any questions answered fully. The surroundings at the nursing were very conducive to creating a restful, secure environment
Rooms are a good size, well maintained being able to bring mum's treasured possessions made this very much her home. In January care, compassion was excellent.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.642)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.642) out of 10 for Market Lavington Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 17 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.665 for Market Lavington Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (134 Excellents x 5) + (55 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 194 Ratings = 4.665

  • 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 4.977 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Market Lavington Care Home is based on 17 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 87 registered maximum number of service users is 17.4. 17 Positive Reviews ÷ 17.4 = 0.977

  • 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.
