Review from Paula S (Daughter of Resident) published on 11 October 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My mother has been in Madeira for two and a half years now with dementia and I can only say I am so pleased we picked this home for her.
She is so well cared for, nothing is too much trouble for the staff and they are so friendly. They have made myself and my siblings at ease with having had to make
the daunting choice to place mum in a home, they truly are caring.
I am always kept up to date with anything that may crop up no matter how trivial it may seem and the staff are always there to help me with any queries I may have and point me in the right direction if I feel I need to talk to anyone at the home or outside should it be the doctors or adult social care.
I can honestly say I would not want mum to go anywhere else and would happily recommend Madeira to anyone who feels it is time to have a loved one placed into a care home.

Great standard of care and a family atmosphere.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My nanna came to this home after being in hospital. She was well treated and made to feel comfortable. The girls were all very friendly with her especially the young activities coordinator who went above and beyond to make my nanna feel at ease. The lovely lady did all she could to make sure all her
needs was met to a professional standard and I will be forever grateful. All staff made sure that myself and my family was involved in my nanna's care keeping us up to date with how she was doing. Also, I would like to add after following the Facebook page I can clearly see the activities team brings such joy and excitement to the residents, there is always a different activity being held, residents all get involved with this which is such a pleasure to see. What a lovely idea to share with everyone. It's noted how happy the residents are and enjoy it at the care home. I would recommend this care home and would like to personally thank Madeira House for making my nanna feel well looked after.

My grandfather came to this home after losing his beloved wife, the staff at the home made him feel very comfortable and catered to all his needs in a professional high standard.
The home is very homely and each person is treated as an individual and all care is person-centred. They are like one big
family at the home.
All the staff at the home are amazing and do their utmost to ensure the residents are well cared for and are safe.
The staff ensure that all friends and family are involved in their relatives care and encourage their involvement.
The activities team at the home are outstanding and there is always something going on every day.
Although the manger is new, she has become one of the family and is doing an outstanding job and has made many positive changes that benefit the residents daily.
I can not fault the care that is given to my grandad and I am most grateful to each and every one of the staff within the home as he is very settled and enjoys living at Madeira House.

I checked on my service user daily as he was for 10 days in the home. I was very happy, as after 2 days I saw that he was taken good care of. Sure home care is always better as if he can be even more personalised but Madeira House showed me, if he ever had to go into a home he would have a decent time
and be well looked after. Madeira House looked friendly, colourful and cosy, clean and it smelled nice. I can't comment on value for money or food as I have not been involved in these.

My father was placed in Madeira House upon leaving hospital after a fall. The whole team treated him like family. Their main aim was to get him back on his feet and give him confidence in his walking. The staff are always on hand and are always willing to help. The home manager is second to none. The
food is hotel quality and the home is as clean as a hospital theatre. We are very pleased with the overall service and we know we have no worries for his safety. Please don't change.

My mum has been at Madeira House now for over 2 years and she is very contented. I am quite satisfied that she is well looked after and happy. The staff are very kind and although the manager is quite new, she seems friendly and approachable and is already making a difference. The events staff are very
good and the home always seems to have a happy atmosphere.

My mother-in-law came to Madeira House for respite following a fall. She was treated with dignity and respect by all the staff, who were lovely. There were activities to do and residents were encouraged to reach their goals. The food was excellent and the visitors were welcomed and kept informed. The
staff worked as a team, keeping the home running smoothly and efficiently.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Pros - staff really very friendly and they treat residents with respect. The food is good, family curry night is especially great. They also know when to call for an ambulance on both occasions, we are grateful for.
Cons - the whole place has a bad smell and in particular, the room Mum was in (10).
The main concern has to be how long it takes for a resident's bell call to be answered, it is majorly concerning.
Reply from Home Manager, Home Manager at Madeira House Residential Care Home

Thank you for your review of our home and I am pleased that many aspects of the care are good. In respect of your concerns, could I ask that you call in to speak to us in the office so we can address these concerns with you directly? Many thanks.

My mum has spent a long time at Madeira House and I cannot express my gratitude to each and every person who cares for her.
She was cared for with the utmost dignity and the staff could not do enough for her.
It is nice to see a home with the manager visible and interacting with the staff team and
residents in her care. The staff always have smiles on their faces, the residents always cared for. The activities team are nothing short of amazing, especially one member of the team. Always activities going on. Laundry always done quickly and mum's room is impeccably clean.
Food is varied and healthy, special diets are offered (Mum is diabetic)
Overall an amazing home. Well done to the manager and all her amazing team. You are all angels in my eyes and I can’t thank you all enough. My mother loves you all dearly.

Current Review Score: 9.2 (9.150)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.2 (9.150) out of 10 for Madeira House Residential Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.2 out of 5 from 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 11 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 4.150 for Madeira House Residential Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (71 Excellents x 5) + (53 Goods x 4) + (13 Satisfactorys x 3) + (13 Poors x 2) + (3 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 153 Ratings = 4.15
  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 Madeira House Residential Care Home is based on 11 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 51 registered maximum number of service users is 10.2, which has been reached with 11 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.
