Click to show a breakdown of the Review Score
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 4.936 for Regency House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (324 Excellents x 5) + (22 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 346 Ratings = 4.936
b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 12 months. 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.
The 4.571 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Regency House Care Home is based on 8 positive Reviews in the last 12 months and is calculated as follows:
3 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 = 4
Target of 14 positive Reviews (70 registered maximum number of service users ÷ 5). 8 Reviews ÷ 14 Target = 0.571
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
Review submitted from a Postal Card by Christine W (Daughter of Resident) on Friday 11 August 2017.
Regency House has made the experience of my mother needing to be cared for in a nursing home much easier than I anticipated. The staff at every level of her care are cheerful, caring and professional. As the weeks pass I have become more aware of the variety of provisions for her needs and now have peace of mind that she is cared for by staff who only have her best interests at heart. Thank you most sincerely.

I visit approx 3 to 4 times a week. There is always a pleasant atmosphere and you are always made to feel welcome. (Not intruding) I especially appreciate the coffee shop that provides a comfortable area to have a drink and look at the newspaper. (Conversation is very limited with my mum and has been for a while). It also gives you the opportunity to speak to other residents and families. Mum used to really enjoy activities and will join when able.

My mother has been a resident at Regency House Care Home for 18 months and we cannot speak highly enough of the care she has received there. She is confined to bed and so needs lots of attention, which she gets at all times. The staff care and nursing are excellent and we especially appreciate the way a G.P is called quickly if there is any problem. The room is lovely and clean and the food is excellent. Mum is very happy there and we have peace of mind knowing she is well cared for.

My mum has been in Regency for just over a year. I have seen my mum develop and grow new skills thanks to the help and support of staff at Regency.
Nothing is ever too much trouble and staff are always supportive.
It's a big help to me knowing that my mum is in a safe and happy environment.

All the staff gave such a warm welcome to my friend when she arrived at the Regency in March of this year. The room is lovely and more than adequate for her needs. There's plenty of activities to attend to during the day and to get involved in. The food is excellent and with plenty of choice. All the residents are friendly and my friend was soon settling into her new home. There are always staff on hand if you need to speak to someone. Lots of activities included for family and friends to attend.

My brother has been a resident at this care home for 3 and a half years following a massive stroke. His wife and I have found the staff very caring and helpful, also the domestic and office staff are to be commended.
There is the occasional hitch now and then but nothing major.
All in all, (the family) are very satisfied with this care home.

I find Regency is a very caring place for my mother to spend her days, with the knowledge that she is in safe hands. The carers and the full team are most reliable, friendly and open. I feel on arrival at each visit, that you walk into a home of friends and family - I would not change anything.

My mother was a resident here but unfortunately passed away. As I had already made friends with a number of the residents I come in to see them once a week to have a chat and a coffee. The team is always very friendly and the coffee shop is amazing.

I have found the staff are extremely helpful. I am kept informed on my families health and welfare. The home is kept remarkably clean and maintained. My family member enjoys the food and always says that there is plenty of choice. I have never had any reason to question anything and I feel that the staff are always willing to take time to answer any questions that I might need to have answered. There activities are amazing and there's always plenty of things for my family member to do.

The home offers a safe and caring environment which offers the opportunity for regular activities from craft work through to gardening. The layout of the home provides the easy access to all areas including the garden area which provides peace of mind for family and friends knowing that mum can access areas safely. Food is excellent and there has never been any issues in any friend or family visiting at any time.

Finding mum a suitable care home has not been easy in Cardiff. Mum is relatively young and we wanted somewhere where she would engage in everyday activities. Since moving mum here, she has improved far more than we expected. She is engaging well with staff and residents. The home is welcoming and there is always someone to discuss any concerns with. It's been a big choice for mum giving up her home, however, Regency (Hallmark) has helped us all the way.

We have always found The Regency to be like a home from home. My auntie has settled in well and always says what good fun she has. She is still highly interested in current affairs and reads the papers daily; and is always up for any activities that The Regency puts on. At age 93, my aunt feels that this is the best place for her - she is kept active, feels safe and looked after with dignity and respect.

Review submitted from a Postal Card by John F (Son of Resident) on Friday 5 February 2016. Relates to December 2015.
My mother was moved at very short notice from hospital to Regency House here in Cardiff in order to be closer to my wife and me. The process of selecting the home was made supremely easy by your customer relationship manager. The subsequent assessment was arranged and carried out with the minimum of fuss and distress to my mother. On arrival at Regency House mum was offered a spectacular omelette by the catering staff as we had missed lunch, she was very grateful! The consistently excellent care and consideration mum has received from all the staff has been fantastic and is the main reason why she has settled into her new home so well. A very challenging ordeal for mum has been met by kindness and welcome. Thank you.
