Review from Dennis F (Son of Resident) published on 7 December 2021 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother was accepted into Redworth House Shildon approximately three years ago. We as a family visited every week. We could see that she was well looked after. clean, room tidy, and well fed.
Staff were always looking in to see if she wanted anything. We know as a family that she received twenty
four hour care which we could not do. We are very grateful that these homes are available and at this particular home she was very well looked after.
Reply from Helen Reeve, Home Manager at Redworth House Care HomeThank you Dennis. Your mum was part of the family over the 3 years we cared for her and was loved so much. Thank you for your positive review. It is lovely to read those kind words.
Kind regards
Helen

Current Review Score: 9.2 (9.233)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.2 (9.233) out of 10 for Redworth House Care 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 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.5 out of 5 from 10 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 4.748 for Redworth House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (86 Excellents x 5) + (22 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 111 Ratings = 4.748
  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 4.485 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Redworth House Care Home is based on 10 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 = 3.75
    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 68 registered maximum number of service users is 13.6. 10 Positive Reviews ÷ 13.6 = 0.735
  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.
