Review from John F (Son of Resident) published on 2 June 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The home is always a pleasant visit and highly motivational for my mother. The staff are excellent and the activity programme is always well thought out and appropriate.
My mother has moved from her own home and forfeited her independence but is so happy in her new environment. The home accommodates
her gardening request and does everything to make her feel at home.

The activity organiser is excellent. She motivates, encourages, speaks clearly, and always does it with a smile.
My mother has been in three care homes, the activies and personal bond that she has with her are by far the best.

Review from Becci S (Friend of Resident) published on 5 January 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Visited Christmas Eve, lovely home, decorated lovely, lots of happy residents and staff, visited so I could attend their church service with my friend who is a resident at the home. Had a lovely time, we were looked after very well, intend to visit the home again so I can attend their church service,
which is apparently held every Wednesday and Sunday. Thank you for a lovely visit. The home was very clean. I have not been able to comment on 'value for money' as I don't know what the cost to stay at this home is.

I have recently been to visit a dear friend in this lovely home, all the staff were very welcoming, and the home appeared very nice and clean. I was there at lunch time, and the food looked and smelled lovely.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My wife and I visited my friend on a weekend. I was amazed at how inviting and nice the staff were, whilst there I also met the home manager who was very kind and helpful. All the staff on duty were also very helpful, I got the impression that nothing was too much trouble, eased my concerns about visiting
in the future. Thank you

Review from Mike S (Son-in-law of Resident) published on 21 July 2015 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My 95 year old mother-in-law moved to Chapel Fields in September 2014 and was very happy there, doing much as she had done at home - watching TV, listening to the radio and emailing from her iPad but knowing that assistance was available at the touch of a button. The staff always had time for her,
whether it was putting seed on her window ledge to attract birds or simply chat about football, the latest Grand Prix, or whatever.
In her last few weeks when her appetite and her ability to drink diminished the staff responded with different food and drink to tempt her.
During her last few hours the staff were kindness personified, checking that she was comfortable and that we (her daughter and son-in-law) were also looked after - hot chocolate and toast at 2 in the morning was very welcome!
Immediately following her death, my mother-in-law was treated with great dignity and respect and my wife and I were treated with such kindness and sympathy by all the staff at Chapel Fields.

The staff at Chapel Fields didn't just care for my mother-in-law - they cared about her.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.733)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.733) out of 10 for Chapel Fields 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 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 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 4.733 for Chapel Fields is calculated as follows: ( (136 Excellents x 5) + (33 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 176 Ratings = 4.733
  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 Chapel Fields is based on 15 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 70 registered maximum number of service users is 14, which has been reached with 15 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.
