Overall Experience  Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5

We thought it would be a rather daunting task looking for a suitable nursing care home when we had to make the unfortunate decision of putting our dad into long term care a few months ago. However, after a couple of weeks respite at The Grove in Kemnay, we decided that we need not look any further.
From the moment we stepped into dads new home, it felt right. As far as we are concerned, it's a home from home for dad. The atmosphere is cheerful. Everyone, including staff and residents, welcomes you with a smile and a friendly word. The rooms are clean and brightly decorated and the meals are wholesome. We have peace of mind that dad is well cared for by both nursing and care staff alike and would have no hesitation in recommending The Grove to others faced with a similar dilemma. Thank you for all the care that you give. It's very much appreciated.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.369)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.369) out of 10 for Grove Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.4 out of 5 from 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 11 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 4.369 for Grove Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (80 Excellents x 5) + (49 Goods x 4) + (16 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 149 Ratings = 4.369

  • 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 Grove Care Home is based on 11 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 40 registered maximum number of service users is 8, which has been reached with 11 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.
