The management team are excellent and very helpful.
The staff are very friendly, very helpful and take excellent care of my father and other residents.

The care home was the best but hardest thing I had to do, but for my dad's health and safety, it was the right thing to do. The staff here could not be better.

Review from R C (Son of Resident) published on 20 March 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has been a resident at the care home for over 2 years and she has settled in very well. The care staff are all very friendly and attentive to the resident's needs, My mum's care plan is reviewed every six months and I have an input into the review and can make suggestions regarding her care.
The
care home has been recently renovated and all areas are lovely, including her room and the home is always spotlessly clean.

Review from M J (Daughter of Resident) published on 20 March 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our family has been delighted with the care our mother has received at Deeside Care Home; although she is often confused and disorientated, she is treated with dignity and compassion. She is encouraged to participate in the activities and maintain her mobility within a safe environment. The staff are
all very friendly and approachable and cope well with confused residents.

My mother and father have been very happy in Deeside Care Home. They are well looked after, showered daily and clothes changed daily too.
Food is varied and nutritious. Mum and dad enjoy it.
There are lots of activities going on which mum enjoys immensely. Cinema and hair salon are huge hits.

Review from L W (Daughter of Resident) published on 17 March 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
During the few months my mother was a resident in Deeside she was treated with kindness, respect and dignity and soon began to look upon it as her own home. The friendly staff knew her well and were particularly keen to ensure she was happy and comfortable in the final stages of her life. My family
and I always felt very welcome and the approachable staff greeted us with a smile and the offer of a cup of tea and biscuits.

Review from Catherine N (Daughter of Resident) published on 8 March 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The staff at the home made the transition for my father as easy as possible, recognising that he wasn't always happy to be there at first. When I go to the home I notice that all the staff know Dad by name and they know about his family and situation. They know what he likes to do, his routines and
even how he likes his tea. The home has a lovely routine of day trips and special events and Dad especially likes the church services that come to the home each week. The home has good connections with medical services and responds quickly if there is a problem. I live abroad and the home keeps me posted on how things are going. They will also print out an email or set up a Skype call for me. The staff are always friendly and warm. When I visit the home I have a meeting with the head carer to go over Dad's care plan and discuss any special needs that he has. He is extremely well cared for and really feels at home now and I am very glad of that.

Review from Alan M (Husband of Resident) published on 3 March 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My wife was in this home for more than six years and during all that time I found it extremely well run and providing excellent care to all residents. The staff are excellent and friendly making relatives welcome at all times and providing all support in difficult situations. The management and staff
are very professional and caring and take a personal interest in the relatives well-being. Good quality of food and high standards of cleaning ensure a pleasant and happy environment
Could not find any points to criticise in all the six years. An excellent and well-run home.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.920)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.920) out of 10 for Deeside Care 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 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 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 4.920 for Deeside Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (164 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 176 Ratings = 4.92
  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 Deeside Care Home is based on 15 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 68 registered maximum number of service users is 13.6, which has been reached with 15 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.
