My wife has been in Abbey Place Care Home for almost five years. During that time, my wife (who has dementia) and myself have always been treated with kindness and dignity by both management and staff. The care here is excellent and from my observation, all residents are treated with patience. The staff
treat the residents, not letting their dementia issues override the care they receive.

My husband has settled here very happily and speaks very highly of the staff. I have ticked more good than excellent because I have not been here often enough to judge. But it's good that there is something to aim for - a full house of excellent. My husband has been allowed his independence to go out
with friends and attend church. Catering staff have done their utmost to cook him meals that help his diabetes, many thanks to them. One small criticism that I hope will be accepted as constructive. I noticed on one visit a strong smell of urine in the corridor. Are incontinent residents helped and encouraged to go to the bathroom frequently and to change pads often?

Thank you for your kind review following our takeover. As the new owners there is a refurbishment plan underway to replace carpets that are causing a slight odour.

I've just visited my uncle and wow Abbey Place is a welcoming and caring home. The staff have gone above and beyond to settle him in, it's so nice to see him smile again. The activities coordinator is a credit to Abbey Place. Well done staff.

From the first look round visit to moving family in, every aspect is carefully thought through and coordinated to cause the least distress and give the resident the utmost respect. Wonderful, caring, attentive, knowledgeable staff. Good food and immaculately clean. Consistent staff levels and conscientious
management. A truly wonderful caring environment.

The staff are excellent and will go out of their way to help you, which always makes you feel better when visiting, especially if they can't communicate with you. The cafe is a brilliant place to be able to meet up with your family for a gathering.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.744)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.744) out of 10 for Abbey Care Village 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 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 4.744 for Abbey Care Village is calculated as follows: ( (186 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) + (9 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 203 Ratings = 4.744

  • 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 Abbey Care Village is based on 16 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 78 registered maximum number of service users is 15.6, which has been reached with 16 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.
