Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
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.
Reply from Angela Henderson, Manager at Maryfield West Nursing Home

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review for Maryfield West and your positive comments. It is a testament to the team at Maryfield West that you feel that all staff exhibit great care and compassion for your mum. Covid-19 has been a very difficult time for all family members but especially when choosing long term care for a loved one. So, we are delighted to know that you have all felt well supported during this transition.

My granny has been really well looked after and the staff are always helpful and friendly. Maryfield did an incredible job managing covid risks throughout the pandemic. The home does a wide variety of excellent activities for all the residents, even we were jealous of the animals they got to meet.

Both my parents have been residents at Maryfield West Care Home. They have been extremely well looked after by the kind and caring staff there. My mum was admitted from another care home with a very large pressure sore on her sacrum, which the nurses and carers at Maryfield managed to heal completely.
The manager and all the staff are friendly and approachable and take time chat with visiting relatives. The staff have a good rapport with the residents and there are daily activities which residents can take part in. There is generally a nice friendly atmosphere within the home.

I visit my friend quite regularly and today they were having a coffee morning to raise money for a national cancer charity. Everyone was involved including those that live there and having a brilliant time.
Staff were fantastic with lots of laughs (as usual) and really welcoming. Looking forward to
the next coffee morning.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My grandmother moved to Maryfield West Care Home in June 2019. After having moved from a previous care home we found that Maryfield West was the perfect place for my grandmother. The staff and manager were extremely helpful during the transition and the move.
They are still also very helpful to this
day and do their very best for my grandmother, ensuring that we are also as a family kept up to date about her health and what the care home has to offer. I have never seen my grandmother so happy and we are delighted to have found such a fantastic, friendly, caring and passionate place for her to enjoy her life! My grandmother has also complimented the staff and the management and gets on really well with them. The cleanliness of the care home is of a high standard, and the food and drink is amazing for the residents who live there.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Mum moved into Maryfield West four weeks ago from Northern Ireland and we have seen a massive improvement in her mobility and cognitive ability which is as a result of the level of care and attention she has received in Maryfield. The manager and all his team are fantastic and very supportive of
both my Mum (resident) and me. They were always available to answer any questions or concerns both before my mum moved in and that has not changed now that she has become a permanent resident. I am a regular visitor (every day) and have seen for myself the excellent quality of care all residents receive and more importantly the staff genuinely care about the residents. I am very relieved that I made the right choice of care home for my mum and am grateful for the care she is receiving. I cannot recommend Maryfield West enough to anyone considering a placement for their loved one!

I have worked at Maryfield as the resident hairdresser for many years. The staff are excellent with the residents and are helpful and approachable.

My Mum has been resident at Maryfield West for a few weeks, having had to move from a previous care home. The Manager has been extremely helpful, timely and efficient from our first meeting and in all aspects of the subsequent transfer and the settling in period, taking much of the stress out of the
situation. He is also a visible presence in the home, which is bright, welcoming and has a happy feel. All staff we have had contact with have been friendly, caring and interested. There is always a high level of care staff on duty, and Mum’s appearance is clean, neat and tidy. Her room is nicely decorated and the quality furnishings, along with her own bits and pieces, make it a real home from home. She finds it a stimulating environment, observing others, and enjoying watching and taking part in organised activities. Standards of cleanliness throughout are high. As yet we’ve not visited during mealtimes, but menus look tasty with lots of variety. I am so pleased that Mum is now resident there.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.870)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.870) out of 10 for Maryfield West Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 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 4.870 for Maryfield West Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (263 Excellents x 5) + (35 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 300 Ratings = 4.87
  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 Maryfield West Nursing 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 25 registered maximum number of service users is 5, 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.
