Both parents are in Mavis Bank. They are very content and happy here, very welcoming. Staff are excellent, very kind and thoughtful.


Varied activities. Both have a good relationship with all staff and their anxieties and confusion alleviated. They are both safe.

A lot better than the one I was in, nothing to do, no-one to speak to only the staff, I'm a lot happier and content here. The other care home I was in was depressing me, and I'm closer to my family now, staff are amazing here.

My wife, whose disposition has changed is hardly very well and praises the care she receives. I appreciate the change is handled well. Healthwise, I think she is looked after well, though her swollen stomach is a worry.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Today when I arrived, my friend of our family had her hair done and was looking super. I like the way the team know her needs, for example when she gets anxious and confused, the relationship she has with the admin lady settles her just by talking to her and spending time with her. I am happy with all
I see in this home.

Since my mother has been admitted to Mavis Bank Care Home since January 2018, she has settled very well and I think all staff from management to carers has been first class and would have no problem recommending family or friends to Mavis Bank Care Home.

My ninety-two year old mother received respite care for three weeks in Mavisbank.
We were very happy with the care and attention she received.
All the staff we encountered were very helpful and friendly. She had a very nice room. We also felt that Mavisbank had a nice fresh and clean air to it. We
will certainly be happy for my mother to return there.

Mavis Bank is a well-situated house with good facilities and caring staff. There are lots of activities suitable for all the residents. Communication is good and staff are receptive to my concerns. It is a safe home and while is now in need of some decoration is clean and adequate.

Excellent entertainment within establishment, with exceptional external visits to local amenities. Good use of local schools and third sector to support initiatives and activities.
I'm particularly impressed with the commitment of staff and management.
Premises are tired and require some investment.
I
am more than satisfied with the care provided to my father.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.830)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.830) out of 10 for Mavisbank 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 33 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 33 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 4.830 for Mavisbank Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (333 Excellents x 5) + (54 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 393 Ratings = 4.83
  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 Mavisbank Care Home is based on 33 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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, which has been reached with 33 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.
