Review from Donna (Daughter of Resident) published on 14 January 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father was placed in Chester Court in June 2014 at first with dread as I live 400 miles away. I visited him the week after he was admitted there and straight away I was put at ease. The staff are very friendly and caring. I was free to call in anytime of day and stay as long as I wanted. The staff
were not only caring to my Dad but also to myself. the home is a fantastic place with excellent staff. Nothing is too much for them. For the last 18 months Chester Court gave my father a new lease of life after being bedridden for years, he was able to get out and about, living again in his last few months. My father made many friendships with people in Chester Court not only with residents, staff also. Chester Court was his home and the staff make it a wonderful place.

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.762) out of 10 for Barchester Chester Court Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 4.762 for Barchester Chester Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (202 Excellents x 5) + (49 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 256 Ratings = 4.762
  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 Barchester Chester Court Care Home is based on 21 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 41 registered maximum number of service users is 8.2, which has been reached with 21 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.
