b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.7 out of 5 from 3 positive Reviews in the last 12 months.
a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating of all Reviews over all time. For each review the Care Home / service is rated Excellent, Good, Satisfactory, Poor or Very Poor on a number of areas eg Staff, Management etc. The Care Home receives points for each rating as follows: Excellent = 5. Good = 4. Satisfactory = 3. Poor = 2. Very Poor = 1. These points are added up and then divided by the total number of completed ratings to generate the average rating.
The Average Rating of 4.848 for Brockwell Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (40 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 46 Ratings = 4.848
b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 12 months. If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with 'Extremely Likely' or 'Likely' in answer to the question 'How likely are you to recommend this Care Home to friends and family if they needed similar care or treatment?'
The 5 points available are broken down as follows:
4 points are available for the first 5 Positive Reviews, 3 points for the first Positive Review and then 0.25 Points for each of the next 4 Positive Reviews.
1 point is available for reaching a target number of Positive Reviews based on 20% of the number of registered maximum number of service users. If the target is partially reached then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home with 50 registered maximum number of service users has a target of 10 Positive Reviews, if it has 10 or more Positive Reviews it will receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews will receive 0.7 points.
If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. The calculation is the same as above, except the points are divided by 2.
The 3.7 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Brockwell Court Care Home is based on 3 positive Reviews in the last 12 months and is calculated as follows:
3 + 0.25 + 0.25 = 3.5
Target of 15 positive Reviews (75 registered maximum number of service users ÷ 5). 3 Reviews ÷ 15 Target = 0.200

My father spent time here in respite care whilst I was on holiday and he and I couldn't be happier with the support and care he received.
The girls on the care team were so lovely with him and I had a great holiday knowing he was safe. Thank you, girls!

My wife was moved from another care home at the end of November 2016 to Brockwell Court and so far I have found the staff to be very helpful and caring towards my her, myself and my family when we have visited her. I would like to thank them for all their help so far in making my wife very comfortable in her first few months.
