Review from Gemma I (Daughter of Resident) published on 9 February 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My dad is a resident of Torry Care Home, and I couldn't wish for him to be in a better place. The staff are very friendly, caring and accommodating to my dad's needs, and always make us feel welcome when we visit by stopping by for a chat with us, offering us tea/coffee, etc. We were able to paint and
decorate Dad's room to make it homely for him, which is a really nice thing to be able to do.
There are always plenty of activities in the lounge to keep the residents entertained, and it's nice to see photos and videos of them enjoying themselves.
I would highly recommend Torry to anyone looking for a care home for a loved one.

Nothing but high praise for all the staff in Torry Nursing Home - be they domestics, cooks, handymen or carers. They have gone above and beyond in this crisis. Thank you doesn’t seem to be enough. You are caring for my loved ones and I will always be eternally grateful.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.588)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.588) out of 10 for Torry Nursing 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 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 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 4.787 for Torry Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (147 Excellents x 5) + (33 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 183 Ratings = 4.787
  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 4.801 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Torry Nursing 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 3.875
    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 81 registered maximum number of service users is 16.2. 15 Positive Reviews ÷ 16.2 = 0.926
  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.
