Review from Sandra W (Daughter of Resident) published on 16 February 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I feel that I needed to put my review on this site my mother was a resident in Perry Locks nursing home for 6 weeks until she passed away on January 19th. In her 6 weeks stay we couldn't fault any of the Carers, Nurses, Doctor or Manager for the treatment my mother had. Everyone was so caring and loving
my mother needed a lot of care and she received this daily from all the staff. Her room was lovely and kept spotless by the cleaners. Meals were all cooked lovely and presented well. Mom never wants for anything they would get in any special request for her. The whole of the Nursing home was kept clean and always tidy. I cannot fault any of the care my mom was given. I felt I needed to give praise where praise is due. A big Thank you from me and my family too for the care loving care they always showed to us as a family. Ten out of ten from us.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.379)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.379) out of 10 for Perry Locks Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.4 out of 5 from 41 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 40 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 4.379 for Perry Locks Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (242 Excellents x 5) + (179 Goods x 4) + (51 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 477 Ratings = 4.379
  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 Perry Locks Care Home is based on 40 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 128 registered maximum number of service users is 25.6, which has been reached with 40 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.
