Review from Irene B (Daughter of Resident) published on 1 July 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We were concerned initially about our mum going into residential care and so was she. However we were all surprised and delighted to find Fairview is comfortable, secure and very welcoming. Mum has settled in very happily and we have nothing but praise and grateful thanks for the staff who look after
her so well. Being able to take some of her personal things was a big help too, her room is now very much like home to mum and we are made to feel very welcome when we visit.

Review from Siobhan A (Guardian of Resident) published on 18 May 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The resident previously lived independently at home, however after being diagnosed with dementia she was unable to live at home. She required 24 hour care and moved to Fairview Care Home where there is a homely environment. She enjoys participating in the variety of social activities on offer as well
as domestic tasks including laundry and dishes.

Review from Elicia (Granddaughter of Resident) published on 29 February 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 2.0 out of 5
My gran has dementia and on entering the home had care plan in place with likes and dislikes etc to make her daily living easier. We were lead to believe all of which the home could continue we do also understand that she would not get the company as she was at home which is perfectly understandable
due to staffing in homes. However a lot of my gran's needs were not met, all of which the social worker put in the assessment and home said all could be met:- bedsides not allowed on bed not to restrain her (as she was not mobile) for safety at night, sitting on chair in morning and wheelchair with cushion we have provided so difference on surface in the afternoon, took upon themselves to stop medication as they felt my gran did not need it and once questioned as we could see gran was in pain when visiting they said they can usually tell if in pain by facial expressions, which is totally diabolical as they don't know my gran as she had not long been in the home plus a lot of agency staff cover shifts and they don't know her. A lot of the staff are very good with my gran.
Reply from HC-One.co.uk, Careline Team at Fairview Care Home

Prior to admission to the care home we carry out a pre-admission assessment, on admission another assessment is carried out and then care needs reviewed and evaluated on a regular basis. When these are reviewed this may mean a change to the nursing care needing to be delivered. We currently have nursing vacancies due to a national shortage of nurses, therefore, in order to provide safe care to our Residents will have been using agency nursing staff. The agency, where possible, has been providing us with the same staff in our home to provide continuity of care for our Residents

One of the main reasons Fairview was selected as the most suitable was as it had a very friendly, homely atmosphere. During the time my mother has resided here, I have always found the staff to be extremely friendly and helpful. It has been the one thing ALL the family have commented on. My mother at
present is extremely ill and I am comfortable that she is well cared for.

My mother has been a resident since September and has struggled with the change. The staff at Fairview Care Home have been patient with her and helped her settle in as much as they can. My mother is now eating better and feeling better thanks to the managers and staff at the home. They have gone out
of their way to help her and also make her family welcome including providing a room so we could share Christmas dinner with her and make the transition a little more normal. I would have no hesitation in recommending the home to other families.

I am happy here and the food is good I like it. There is always plenty to do but I do not always do things. The whole place is spotlessly clean and tidy and the staff are very cheerie, helpful and friendly.

Current Review Score: 9.2 (9.225)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.2 (9.225) out of 10 for Fairview 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 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.5 out of 5 from 8 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 4.758 for Fairview Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (77 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 95 Ratings = 4.758
  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 4.467 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Fairview Care Home is based on 8 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 = 3.8
    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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12. 8 Positive Reviews ÷ 12 = 0.667
  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.
