Review from Jennifer Y (Daughter of Resident) published on 17 February 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother was admitted to Hallhouse just over 2 weeks ago. I visited today for the first time since admission because we all felt it was best our mother settled, becoming familiar with the team, environment and communal living.


The senior carers have been great at contacting me also has the Manager

with general updates during the first 2 weeks. I just thought I had to inform you of the fantastic job the whole team have done in the very short time as my mother is so settled, contented, immaculately dressed and feels safe. It is such a relief for my brothers and me as it has been an extremely challenging time over the last few months to keep her safe and cared for at home.


The maintenance man 'worked his socks off' to decorate her bedroom again within a very tight time frame. Also the housekeeping team to label the clothes, arrange the furniture and the cleanliness of the bedroom.


I cannot thank the Manager and her team enough, truly all live and breathe the values.


One very happy relative!!!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.910)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.910) out of 10 for Hallhouse 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 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 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 4.910 for Hallhouse Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (132 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 144 Ratings = 4.91
  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 Hallhouse Care Home is based on 12 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 47 registered maximum number of service users is 9.4, which has been reached with 12 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.
