Review from Linda C (Daughter of Resident) published on 5 October 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum was admitted to the Alexandra Care Home on Wednesday 28th September 2021 from hospital for Respite. On my arrival, I was met by a member of staff who was wearing PPE. I was given a lateral flow test before I was allowed in the building. After my test, I was shown to my mum's room which was very
clean and a nice room. All corridors are kept clean and tidy. While I was there staff were always coming in to check on mum giving her drinks and monitoring them on a fluid intake chart. 2 members of staff came and stood by my mum to relieve her pressure areas. All staff I met that visit were professional compassionate and caring in their role. My mum is happy to be staying at the Alexandra and I am very pleased how my mum is being cared for. I could not have found her a better place to be. The food is good and my mum seems to be eating fairly well. I would recommend the Alexandra for anyone who needs care for a relative who would be cared for by a dedicated compassionate caring team and manager.

My mum has been there 2yrs. The care and respect she gets is brilliant. All staff are friendly, nothing too much trouble, the management and the PA are brilliant. Nothing ever too much trouble. I don’t worry as much now knowing mum is taken care of.

I had a window visit with my Mum today who is 97 years old, she was on one of her "good " days recognising me blowing kisses smiling looking very happy. The staff always help her look smart and make sure she has her costume jewellery on, which was always something she wore at home. She always looks
healthy and hydrated and enjoys her meals. The staff always go out of their way to help not just the care staff but the administration and ancillary staff are happy to make the Alexandra a home from home.

Review from Sonia A (Daughter of Resident) published on 15 July 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum passed away in March 2019 I cannot thank the staff for the kindness and excellent care they gave my mum when she went in for respite. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff for both mum and the family. They treated mum with respect and dignity every time she went in. All the staff and manager
should be so proud of themselves for the great job they do for all the residents.

I cannot thank the staff and management at Alexandra enough. My mam passed away on the 20 March 2019, the staff treated her and ourselves with the utmost respect, nothing was ever too much trouble for any of them. I was so lucky to have found somewhere that I felt comfortable with as we knew she couldn’t
have been better looked after. You should all be so proud of yourselves. Once again thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.788)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.788) out of 10 for Alexandra Nursing & Residential Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 9 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 4.931 for Alexandra Nursing & Residential Home is calculated as follows: ( (94 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 101 Ratings = 4.931
  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 4.857 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Alexandra Nursing & Residential Home is based on 9 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 = 3.9
    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 47 registered maximum number of service users is 9.4. 9 Positive Reviews ÷ 9.4 = 0.957
  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.
