Review from Carol G (Daughter of Resident) published on 24 May 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Fulford nursing home is certainly home from home, the staff are always friendly and helpful it's a pleasure to walk into the home. The staff have always gone over and beyond with my mother's care which means so much as we live so far away. Before my mother took up residence in Fulford it was a constant
worry, but now she is a permanent resident there I know she has constant care and attention and her quality of life is so much better for her.

Review from Antonia R (Resident) published on 20 May 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I had no idea that people who looked after the elderly and sick could be so patient. A wonderful feel in this nursing home with a constant sense of humour, under very trying circumstances. As an 83 year old I try to be as little a bother as possible and I have never been so well looked after with an
accompanying sense of humour!

Review from Geoff D (Resident) published on 19 April 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I was staying for rehab (3 days in the end) Each morning I was brought a bowl of warm water, soap and towel to wash before dressing myself to go down to breakfast. Plenty of choice of food at all meals, choice of two courses (main and dessert) for lunch and tea. Coffee/tea snacks morning/afternoon and
supper. Beds made during the day. All of the staff are friendly, courteous and attentive manager came around frequently to check if any other requirements necessary. Duty nurse to issue medicines which are kept in a secure locker in the bedroom. An occupational therapist attended and ensured I had equipment to use at home.

Excellent treatment from going into the nursing home to leaving. Everyone was caring and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. Everything was kept clean and tidy. Food was also very good. Would like to thank all the staff for the care and help received from everyone while staying with you.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.637)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.637) out of 10 for Fulford Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 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 14 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 4.637 for Fulford Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (116 Excellents x 5) + (43 Goods x 4) + (9 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 168 Ratings = 4.637
  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 Fulford Nursing Home is based on 14 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 28 registered maximum number of service users is 5.6, which has been reached with 14 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.
