The team at Maryfield West has done a fantastic job looking after Mum. The standard of care is very high, and the staff are kind and competent. I have always been amazed at how many wonderful activities are arranged each week, such as special meals/teas, music events, games, crafts, visits from the
school children and trips out. I think these things make a big contribution to the residents' happiness.
Everyone is very friendly, and the staff have also been particularly kind and understanding with my dad during his visits to Mum.
Many thanks to you all.

The care shown to my grandmother is above and beyond. It is so sad seeing her living her final years away from her home and family, but due to her dementia, we can’t provide the care she needs, and the staff at Maryfield are the closest thing to family care. They are positive, caring and friendly. The
staff make a care home; everything else comes second, and knowing your loved one is being genuinely cared for is the most important element.

We could not be happier with the high standard of care provided at Maryfield West Nursing Home. The staff are caring and attentive to my mum, and friendly and welcoming to family and friends who visit. There are varied activities on offer every day and it is especially nice to see photos of participation
in them. It is reassuring to know my mum is happy and being so well looked after. I would not hesitate to recommend the home to others.

I am so grateful for the respite place given to my wife whose mental confusion was impossible to manage at home. The staff have been able to do things like inducing her to eat, take medication and see to personal care, all in a most professional way. Above all they have been kind to me, enabling me
to, at last, give up daily responsibility. My wife is withdrawn and frequently unresponsive and uncooperative, but they persevere nonetheless. I wish she could appreciate the care given to her, but I certainly do!

I am very assured that my mum is so well cared for in Maryfield Nursing Home.
All the staff are very polite and professional having the interests of my mum and all the residents at the heart of their tasks.
I have to say they have all made me feel relaxed during the last 2 years of the pandemic with
the knowledge that Mum was so well looked after in care, nursing, medication, excellent food and activities, ensuring all major events are celebrated. Rooms and facilities are excellent with the bonus of a superb garden to sit out in for fresh air.
Also after the lockdowns, they are taken on visits in the minibus, also being taken to the local coffee shops.
I am extremely happy with the support given to my mum each day and night.

Reply from Angela Henderson, Manager at Maryfield West Nursing Home

Thank you for your feedback about Maryfield West. It is always great to hear that you find that the staff are always polite and professional. We are glad to hear that Mum has been taking every opportunity to enjoy the garden and visits out on the minibus.

My brother was admitted to Maryfield West Nursing Home Aberdeen on the 20th September 2021 due to a change in his care needs. Since then I have spoken to several members of staff both on the telephone and in person about my brother's current care needs. They have been extremely kind and helpful and
very informative and I feel completely reassured about the standard of care my brother is receiving and how I can support this with the help and advice of all staff involved with my brothers care. All staff I have encountered have been professional, caring, kind, helpful and have reassured me that the transition to this care facility for my brother is the best that can be found for him in Aberdeen.

Mum had to move into Maryfield West Nursing Home in February 2021. The home was extremely helpful, sending staff to her house to help move furniture and other personal belongings into her room in advance of her arrival. Although visiting has been limited by Covid-19 rules I feel that the home has done
as much as it can to help settle her in during a very difficult time. Staff have exhibited great care and compassion for Mum. Mum has to have a gluten and soya free diet and the management and chef have been very attentive and careful in ensuring she has this.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.856)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.856) out of 10 for Maryfield West Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 25 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 25 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.856 for Maryfield West Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (252 Excellents x 5) + (36 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 291 Ratings = 4.856

  • b) 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 Maryfield West Nursing Home is based on 25 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 25 registered maximum number of service users is 5, which has been reached with 25 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
