The Review Score of 8.8 (maximum of 10) for Langfield 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 8 Reviews over all time. This Average Rating is also the rating value for Langfield Care Home in Google's Search Results - more info
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.1 out of 5 from 4 positive Reviews in the last 12 months.
a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating of all Reviews over all time. For each review the Care Home / service is rated Excellent, Good, Satisfactory, Poor or Very Poor on a number of areas eg Staff, Management etc. The Care Home receives points for each rating as follows: Excellent = 5. Good = 4. Satisfactory = 3. Poor = 2. Very Poor = 1. These points are added up and then divided by the total number of completed ratings to generate the average rating.
The Average Rating of 4.684 for Langfield Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (68 Excellents x 5) + (24 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 95 Ratings = 4.684
b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 12 months. If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with 'Extremely Likely' or 'Likely' in answer to the question 'How likely are you to recommend this Care Home to friends and family if they needed similar care or treatment?'
The 5 points available are broken down as follows:
4 points are available for the first 5 Positive Reviews, 3 points for the first Positive Review and then 0.25 Points for each of the next 4 Positive Reviews.
1 point is available for reaching a target number of Positive Reviews based on 20% of the number of registered maximum number of service users. If the target is partially reached then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home with 50 registered maximum number of service users has a target of 10 Positive Reviews, if it has 10 or more Positive Reviews it will receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews will receive 0.7 points.
If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. The calculation is the same as above, except the points are divided by 2.
The 4.12 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Langfield Care Home is based on 4 positive Reviews in the last 12 months and is calculated as follows:
3 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 = 3.75
Target of 10.8 positive Reviews (54 registered maximum number of service users ÷ 5). 4 Reviews ÷ 10.8 Target = 0.370
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
Langfield Care Home has a Review Score of 8.8 (8.804) from 8 Reviews
Review submitted from a Postal Card by Lynn G (Daughter of Resident) on Monday 15 January 2018. Relates to November 2017.
My mother has been in Langfield for 3 years in all that time she has never had a bed sore, even though she is either in a wheelchair, armchair or bed. My mother is nearly 96 and has never been a wanting person and is quite happy to sleep quite a lot, so I don't know whether the activities are for everyone but they do seem to have a good selection of them for those who want them. All the staff are very caring and listen if you do not have a slight grievance which is not very often.
The home is very clean and graded 5, my mother is always well dressed and clean, she never smells even though she is doubly incontinent. The food is not fancy, but wholesome and mostly homemade. Her room is spacious with a toilet and sink (en-suite) I would definitely recommend Langfield.

My mother has been a resident of Langfield Care Home for approx. 2 years. I can honestly say that the staff are lovely. Just one big happy family and always made to feel welcome. My mom had to be admitted to Langfield Care Home due to having quite a few falls. I feel my mom gets treated really well and feel a lot happier knowing that she is being looked after. She gets along with all the staff as do we. But she feels they need to get more permanent staff on nights so they can feel more at ease with them like she does with the day staff.
Although my mom doesn't eat much of the food or get involved in many of the activities from what I see when visiting, they both look really good. I would not hesitate to recommend this care home.

Many thanks for taking the time to leave a positive review for Langfield, we are always pleased to receive feedback and are pleased that you have found the experience for both you and your mother a good one. We strive to provide the best care and attention for each of our residents and to ensure smooth and healthy transitions, and we are glad that this has been the case for you. We appreciate that the inconsistency of night staff can be a little disconcerting, we work hard to recruit the right staff on a permanent basis to provide more stability for our residents and will hopefully have this situation resolved soon.

My husband has been in Langfield almost a year. It has been a very difficult time for us both but the staff have tried to make things as comfortable as possible. The home is bright and welcoming especially the dining/lounge room. The food seems wholesome, looks appetizing and is plentiful. The staff are approachable and any queries or concerns are listened to and usually addressed quickly.
Social events are well organised and the staff do their utmost to make sure these events are enjoyable without pressurising residents to join in if they prefer not to. It would be good to have more regular input from "outsiders" willing to lead exercise or singing sessions to stimulate residents.

My nana received palliative care in langfield, the way she was looked after in their was fantastic. The staff are absolutely wonderful and love and respect every single resident, I know this because myself, my mum and sister spent lots of time here in my Nanna's end of life. My nana was very happy here and was welcomed with open arms by the team of angels that looked after her. The entertainment team are brilliant also, putting on events for residents and how they engage with them to ensure they enjoy themselves. The food is freshly prepared and my nana really enjoyed her meals. We would definitely recommend this home to anyone. Definitely the best home in Middleton. Keep up the good work.

My sister is quite happy at Langfield she is only 56 but has health care needs. She is treated with dignity and respect, also with understanding as she is only young. I see the other residents treated with care and respect. My only issues are that some nights they are short staffed and have to wait for agency staff to arrive so people cannot be taken to bed or toilet at their request.
