Review from S W (Daughter of Resident) published on 16 November 2021 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Allenbrook have coped well throughout the difficulties caused due to covid. My main concern is that there are never enough staff which I understand is a problem in general. The staff are extremely hard working and caring but there is a quick turnover. Due to staff shortages, standards are not always
up to my expectations. Food, on the whole, is good but meat is sometimes too tough for the elderly residents. Hopefully, there will be more entertainment and activities now covid is being successfully controlled.

Review from Kathryn L (Daughter of Resident) published on 15 November 2021 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has been a resident at Allenbrook Home since January 2020, following the death of my father (who had been her main carer). The nursing home has been extremely supportive towards my mother, who has had to cope with her increasing dementia, bereavement, and covid-19 restrictions. In addition,
my mother has challenging oral and dietary needs. More recently my mother has become more relaxed, regarding Allenbrook as her home. Allenbrook is a little restricted in space for activities.

Review from Sheila S (Daughter of Resident) published on 18 November 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
This nursing home has gone the extra mile to make sure my father settled in when I had to move him from a care home. All the staff have been very caring, to help him feel really comfortable and reassure him that it is his home and if needs anything he only has to ask. The nursing care has been good,
and my father always looks clean and well dressed. The food suits my father and he is now eating very well, the chef does come out of the kitchen to see if there is anything particular needed for the residents. Altogether I have to say a very well run, clean, happy home, that have the residents and the supporting families best interests at heart.

I am always greeted with a smile and a cheery hello. All staff are friendly and welcoming and work hard to ensure the home is welcoming and homely to all the residents. Residents are treated with dignity and respect at all times. I feel this is a safe and caring home and I am very happy with the care
they give my relative.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.564)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.564) out of 10 for Allenbrook Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 19 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 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 4.564 for Allenbrook Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (142 Excellents x 5) + (72 Goods x 4) + (12 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 227 Ratings = 4.564
  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 Allenbrook Nursing Home is based on 19 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 36 registered maximum number of service users is 7.2, which has been reached with 19 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.
