Review from Kay A (Daughter of Resident) published on 13 February 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Grandma had to move from a care home to Lady Forester Nursing Home at short notice. The meeting with the owner was reassuring and comprehensive. This is a professional organisation that is fully staffed, with highly experienced and competent staff. More than that, they want to be there and they care.
The rooms are large and bright and very cosy. The lounge is full of activities and things to do. There is a programme of activities, music and special events, including a fortnightly coffee morning.


But what is special is that in the short time, my mum has been here, she has visibly relaxed. She is alert at times and has even smiled. I see her spotlessly cared for and warm. She has had real food, not just shakes, even though it can take an hour to help her eat. Already a speech and language therapist has been to see her and a special chair has been bought so she can in future be moved into the lounge.
This move has been transformative for the whole family.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I would particularly like to thank the staff from the Philippines for their gentleness, respect for the elderly and unstinting helpfulness. This is in no way to denigrate the care and attention received from the other staff.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My husband has recently moved into Lady Forester Nursing Home.
The staff/carers are very polite and treat him with great care and dignity. So far all my requests regarding care have been followed.
There appears to be a good staff to resident ratio.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.681)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.681) out of 10 for Lady Forester 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 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 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 4.681 for Lady Forester Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (95 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (2 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 119 Ratings = 4.681
  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 Lady Forester 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 43 registered maximum number of service users is 8.6, which has been reached with 10 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.
