Review from M M (Wife of Resident) published on 13 June 2019 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
During his short stay at Cherryvalley Care Home, my husband received excellent care and kindness from both management and staff.
Consideration at all times was given to his needs both during day time and night time.
He felt confident that he was being cared for while he was away from his home environment.
This
meant so much to myself and the family.

A nice care home, pleasantly situated with a good outlook. Staff are friendly, attentive, helpful and efficient. I am kept well informed regarding my brother's health, hospital appointments etc. The nursing staff keep excellent records and are very transparent when asked for any information. In all,
I'm impressed by how the care home is managed.

Mum is well looked after by polite, friendly, professional and caring staff.
They are always very welcoming to family members and always take time to answer any questions or concerns about mum's health and wellbeing.

Over the past number of years, my mother has been receiving exceptional care at Cherryvalley Care Home and during staff change over, this standard of care has been maintained.
I am satisfied with the care and hope it will continue.

Review from A M (Next of Kin) published on 8 May 2019 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
It is obvious to see when entering the home that the staff are friendly and helpful. Nursing is first class especially relating to end of life care which is second to none. Relatives are not only kept informed of any developments as there is their own welfare which is taken into account. Our decision
in choosing Cherryvalley Care home was not only the right place for our relative but also a good outcome for us.

Review from Sharon H (Daughter of Resident) published on 15 January 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
A relative needing to go into a care home is a very difficult time for every family. Every family experiences a lot of anxiety as to how their loved one will fare. The staff at Cherryvalley Care Home are wonderful - kind, caring, considerate, warm and friendly. Support is there for the resident and
their family. Any time the buzzer has been used - the response has been prompt and considerate. Other care homes may have better decor but in my opinion, kind, caring staff is the priority.
Reply from Ronnie Cavanagh, Digital Marketing Executive at Cherryvalley Care Home

I find Cherryvalley Care Home gives excellent nursing and general care but more staff would be appreciated as buzzer response time can be slow due to some residents needing more than 1 health care worker at a time.
Overall the nursing, care and cleanliness is excellent.

Review from Peter S (Son of Resident) published on 6 October 2015 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Mum became a resident of this home after recovery from a fall and a time in hospital. Very soon she was mobile again and with the encouragement and patience of the staff she soon loved her new home. She had a happy 3 and a half years there and the staff were excellent as progressively Altzheimers
Disease took her from us. The care and love given was un-paralleled. The whole team without exception dealt with her as if she was their own mother until her death on the 27th September 2015. Their support for the family after her death was considerate, sympathetic and they were clearly distressed themselves having lost her. We have nothing but the highest regard for all the staff without exception and would fully recommend it to all needing care and support.

This care home looked after my mother for some 3 and a half years, during which time she suffered progressively from Altzheimers Disease.
The care provided was excellent and the whole team dealt with her in a very caring and loving manner until her death on the 27th September 2015. Support after her
death was also very considerate and sympathetic. We have nothing but the highest regard for all the staff without exception and would fully recommend it to all needing care and support.

Current Review Score: 9.0 (9.010)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.0 (9.010) out of 10 for Cherryvalley Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.0 out of 5 from 5 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 4.967 for Cherryvalley Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (58 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 60 Ratings = 4.967
  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 4.043 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Cherryvalley Care Home is based on 5 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 = 3.5
    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 46 registered maximum number of service users is 9.2. 5 Positive Reviews ÷ 9.2 = 0.543
  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.
