Management and staff team go above and beyond with the care and support of residents. Particularly appreciative to staff team recently on mum's 90th birthday. When myself and family couldn't visit due to COVID the staff went above and beyond to make this such a special day for mum. Such a joy to see
mum so animated afterwards in giving us all the details about her special birthday.

A bright and clean home, spacious with a lovely atmosphere. Very welcoming. Provides excellent care with regular stimulation for the residents which is so vital for their wellbeing. the staff are excellent and very professional and attentive to the residents. Friendly cheerful staff. Nothing is too
much trouble. I have seen quite a few nursing homes in various parts of the UK but not one of them comes up to the high standards of Dounemount Care Home. Happy and content residents. Highly recommended.

My mum has been in the care home for over a year now, we are delighted with the service, everyone is very approachable and friendly! It's always clean and organized. They do lots of activities with mum and she seems to be very settled and has put weight on since being there. We can't thank them enough
for everything- keep up the great work.

My mother has been in Dounemount Care Home for just over a year now. In that time she has had the best care we could ask for, always keeping in touch with family by telephone when any changes in Mum's circumstances.
Always doing activities each afternoon with singers, animal visits inside or outside
and games to name a few. Or out in the community for lunch, shopping etc.
Regular posts on social media which is great for her family who can't visit as often as they would like to due to them staying abroad.

Dounemount Care Home have made mum feel so welcome and have gone out of their way to accommodate specific requirements. Staff have been friendly and approachable very much with a ‘can do’ attitude. Issues have been dealt with quickly and efficiently. Suggestions have been welcomed. In short, they have
bent over backwards always with the resident's best interests at heart. And I can’t praise the activities and entertainment which is laid on highly enough. Lots of variety and something for everyone. Keep up the great work!

My mother-in-law has been a resident for over six years now and has always received excellent care. Staff are kind, caring and so very understanding. Family are always made to feel welcome when visiting and we are kept up to date with any changes or anything we need to know either in person or by phone.
The home provides a comfortable and safe environment and the ongoing improvements are really enhancing the residence. The new manager has a real vision of how she wants the home to be and clearly wants the best possible for all the residents.

Review from Robert P (Husband of Resident) published on 16 November 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Since my wife arrived at Douinemout a year ago her physical and mental health have much improved. Weight up largely because she now eats well and adjustments to medication have improved her mood.
A new manager has just been appointed and she is obviously determined that Dounemount – which was recently
upgraded by the Care Inspectorate to 4s on all criteria – will undergo refurbishment on a rolling basis, with revamped communal bathrooms and redecoration of rooms already underway.
Company Values are listed as being kind, passionate, trusted, respectful and inclusive. Dounemount is fortunate to have a stable workforce who form a strong, active team who all, in their different ways, engage well with the residents. All these targets are met and I have benefitted from feeling like one of the family as it has let me continue to play a part in caring for my wife - an important part of my coping strategy.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother-in-law has vascular dementia and has been cared for by the staff at Dounemount for almost two years now. They have shown her, and us, nothing but kindness in that time. My mother-in-law can show some challenging behaviour and her dementia is progressing quickly, but the staff are patient with
her and keep us updated about everything regarding her care needs. Having a loved one in care is not easy, but Dounemount has made a very difficult time for us as a family as easy as it is possible to be. A special mention must go to one of their registered nurses in particular for her compassion and understanding.

My mother has been a resident for nearly four years and the care she has received has been excellent. The staff go above and beyond to help us as a family make my mother's life as enjoyable as possible. During this recent hot weather, they have prepared my mother to get out and about in her wheelchair
so we can enjoy the weather with her. Nothing is too much bother for the brilliant staff. Thank you all.

My mother has been in Dounemount for 10 months now and is very happy there. The staff are brilliant with her and it’s lovely seeing their interactions. She celebrated her 90th birthday recently and they made the day really special for her. The entertainment is varied and often which my mother enjoys.
She is well looked after, and well fed and it gives us peace of mind to know she is safe and comfortable.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
After a difficult few years for our mother personally, she now feels very much at home in Dounemount. A warm caring approach is demonstrated by all staff who work there and is evident as they go about their duties. They use encouraging words when supporting Mum and are very responsive to her individual
needs. Any unexpected medical needs are dealt with promptly and my sister and I are confident in the high-quality nursing care provided. Mum enjoys the relaxed environment in the recently redecorated lounge, where she enjoys chatting with her fellow residents and staff alike. The dining room experience, with very well set and presented tables, gives value to eating together. Mum enjoys sitting with her friendship group for meals and looks forward to selecting from the menu. The activities and social fund events give her the opportunity to have a laugh, enjoy a sing song and generally join in.
Overall we are very happy with the care provided to Mum in this well-managed home.

My mother has been residing in Dounemount for almost a couple of months now and seems very happy and settled. She is always talking about how attentive the staff are and that nothing seems a bother to them. I visit regularly, at different times, and always seem to meet someone running about with a hoover
or pushing a tea trolley. I, personally, find the staff very friendly and knowledgeable when asked about my mum's care or how she has been that day. At the end of the day, it is my mother who is there full time and she is very happy there, what more can I say?

The nurses and carers at Dounemount are always going above and beyond for my Granny. Granny has good relationships will all of the carers and nurses and really enjoys staying in Dounemount. The recent renovations have made a huge difference and made it feel more homely. The staff were more than happy
to set up a wee birthday party for Granny in October and allowed us to make special memories! We, as a family, always feel welcome when we visit and were welcomed in on Christmas Day to have our Christmas Dinner with my Granny in her room! Thank you for all your hard work and dedication to the residents and visitors!

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.810)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.810) out of 10 for Dounemount 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 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 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 4.810 for Dounemount Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (125 Excellents x 5) + (27 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 153 Ratings = 4.81
  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 Dounemount Care Home is based on 13 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 34 registered maximum number of service users is 6.8, which has been reached with 13 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.
