My nan came into this care home in March of this year, her Alzheimers was progressing quickly. My nan always been such an independent lady. Trafalgar Park Care Home is a perfect forever home. The staff are wonderful they support the residents with warmth, professionalism and humour. The new manager
is very efficient, understanding and professional. Her warmth shines through which is so comforting to residents and their families during difficult transitions in their health. Nan has settled so well and still maintains her independence and dignity.

My mum came into Trafalgar Park Care Home in June 2017. Despite my worries as mum came into care, all the staff have not failed to answer my questions and to put my mind at rest. Visitors are made welcome whenever they visit. All the staff are exceptionally kind and thoughtful with mum.

My nan has been at the care home since April 2017. We found it so upsetting that nan had reached the time when she needed care, it was difficult to find somewhere that ticked all our boxes. Trafalgar Park has done this, the standard of care is exceptional, residents are treated with dignity and respect,
are clean, well cared for and stimulated.
We have met the new home manager and she is warm, welcoming and has an open door policy.

The care in the above home is absolutely outstanding. They not only care for the resident but are sympathetic towards the family also, making them feel welcome at all times and understanding at difficult times. Safety of the residents was always their main concern. I felt that the staff there were part
of my family.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The care my mother has received over several years has been and continues to be first class. The staff are always helpful, polite and very professional. They always display a pleasant nature and always make me feel welcome when I visit my mother. In my opinion, the home is first class and the structural
improvements made recently have made a very positive difference.

I visit on a regular basis to see a friend who is a resident.
The staff at Trafalgar Park are exceptionally friendly and the overall feeling of the home is one of calm.
The rooms are spotless and I cannot find any fault at all over the few months that I have been coming.

My mother in law has been treated very well in the short time she has been here. She has settled and made friends.
The care and comforting she has received in this short period has brought her smile back.
Thank you to all staff and management

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.688)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.688) out of 10 for Trafalgar Park 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 26 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 26 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 4.688 for Trafalgar Park Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (210 Excellents x 5) + (76 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 292 Ratings = 4.688
  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 Trafalgar Park Care Home is based on 26 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 52 registered maximum number of service users is 10.4, which has been reached with 26 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.
