Dundoran is a thirty-one bedroom care home in Birkenhead, owned by Newbloom Healthcare.

The team works hard to provide a safe and secure environment, making sure to meet the individual needs of service users, enabling them to maintain independence and dignity.

The bedrooms are well-furnished and tastefully decorated, and they work closely with their service users to make their room feel more like home, and encourage them to bring personal belongings, furnishings and pictures. They can accommodate couples and those requiring en-suite facilities. The home has numerous lounges, a lively dining room and a peaceful garden which is easily accessed.

The thoughts and opinions of service users are taken into account as much as possible within the running of the facility, who also have any particular needs assessed before becoming an occupant.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

My husband had a massive stroke, heart attack and lost the use of his right side and has vascular dementia. This happened on the 5th November 2015. He was in hospital for eight weeks and slowly improved, i.e he was able to walk with aids, but very unstable. His dementia also seemed to be worse. Eventually
he was in an assessment ward and was discharged on Boxing day. I had found a care home Dundoran, as I am 84 and he is 87. I felt I would not be able to manage at home. It was a hard decision for me but I know I did the right thing as he is settling down, is eating well, and is walking with the aid of carers. I know he is getting well looked after. Excellent management and carers who take their job seriously. I made a good decision.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.807)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.807) out of 10 for Dundoran is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.807 for Dundoran is calculated as follows: ( (113 Excellents x 5) + (27 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 140 Ratings = 4.807

  • b) 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 Dundoran is based on 12 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 39 registered maximum number of service users is 7.8, which has been reached with 12 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
