Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I am so happy with the care my mum is getting all the staff are like one big happy family my mum has very challenging behavior and they treat her with the greatest respect and dignity. I would highly recommend the Conifers to anyone who has family that needs care. When I visit my mum and then go home
I can sleep knowing she is safe and cared for so once again a very big thank you.

Review from Margarita S (Mother of Resident) published on 12 December 2023 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
It's reassuring to go and see my son in this care home. He seems very settled and the staff are very good and caring. They are always busy, but always have time to talk to you about my son. They always have a smile on their faces, however busy. I honestly don't know how they cope as there are a lot
of residents, but nothing is too much trouble. They are a credit to the Conifers, they really are, because it's not an easy job.

Review from Lisa M (Daughter of Resident) published on 1 November 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum was moved to Conifers Nursing Home after an exhausting hospital admission. The care and support that both my mum and I have received from staff and management since my mum arrived I believe has been exceptional.
Working as a nurse myself in the NHS. I’ve seen the impact that quality staff can
have on a patient and I truly believe that Conifers has quality staff, from the the accounts administrator, to the care team, activity coordinator through to the manager, who has taken my calls, answered numerous questions, reassured me and most importantly listened. I have witnessed them going that extra mile, knowing that your loved one is in an environment where the caring team, truly care is priceless. Many thanks for all your hard work.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My father has been at the Conifers since 2021. I have been very happy with his care. The home is well staffed and I have found the staff to be friendly, kind and very interactive with their residents. My father has particularly enjoyed time spent in the garden and musical entertainments. The manager
always responds to queries quickly and efficiently.

The home is well-run and the staff care for all residents.
Communication between Conifers and families is excellent.
Any concerns or queries are dealt with
in a timely manner.

Current Review Score: 8.2 (8.199)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.2 (8.199) out of 10 for Conifers 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 3 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.5 out of 5 from 3 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 4.676 for Conifers Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (23 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 34 Ratings = 4.676
  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 3.523 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Conifers Nursing Home is based on 3 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 = 3.25
    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 55 registered maximum number of service users is 11. 3 Positive Reviews ÷ 11 = 0.273
  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.
