Rooms bright and cheery. Place very well maintained.
Food
was lovely and fresh daily and catered for all needs.
Lovely knowing there are places like this to look after our loved ones

My father has been a resident of Louisville Nursing Home for almost five years. H is well looked after by all the staff. Everyone at Louisville is friendly and always willing to help us as a family. Daddy is settled and seems to be content.

The staff of Louisville are always pleasant and friendly. My mother receives a good standard of care at the home and is very comfortable with the staff. No matter what my mother needs, they are always willing to help.

It is first class care, the management and staff do it with lots of love for all the residents with who they treat as though they are one of the family. I have been very happy with all the aspects of the nursing home, especially during this hard time for all. They deserve more gratitude so please keep
all safe.

The staff have always been very helpful and kind whenever I have visited my Mum and my Mum has always seemed quite happy being there these past 8 years. It is only since being in hospital in January 2019 that she has not seemed as contented as she used to be. Think it unsettled her being in the hospital.

Review from Juliana Y (Daughter of Resident) published on 11 April 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father was a resident at Louisville for around nine months! When my siblings and I went to view the home we were immediately impressed with the warm, friendly atmosphere! Daddy settled in quickly and was very content and comfortable! It was no problem to hang paintings and family photos and to have
personal belongings around his room! Staff were very personable and knew all our names. They were very prompt to contact daddy’s GP and inform us regarding any changes in his wellbeing or care. All the staff strived to provide a professional, nurturing and empathetic team. During daddy’s last weeks we couldn’t have asked for better care! He was treated with respect and dignity and the staff formed a guard of honour as daddy’s coffin left Louisville. I have the utmost praise and gratitude for their unwavering care and attention, thank you all.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father spent 7/8 months at Louisville. From the moment he arrived we have found all staff to be genuine and caring. As my father's health deteriorated, I found him to be treated with great respect and dignity, right through until he passed away.
The care afforded to my family and me when he passed
away was considered and respectful.
Greatly appreciated.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
To be honest I initially dismissed this nursing home as the website pictures were not very appealing.
However, due to difficulties finding a home that had vacancies and that could accommodate my late father's high dependency needs, the family eventually went to have a look around.
It was warm, nicely
decorated, clean and welcoming. The staff were very friendly. My dad lived here for seven months before he passed away. He was so well looked after with respect, attentive care and compassion.
Best decision we made.

My aunt has been a resident of Louisville Nursing Home since July 2014 and over the past 4 years, I have always found the staff to be very welcoming and friendly always willing to talk about my aunt's well-being. The rooms and the communal areas are always very clean and tidy. The staff have treated
my aunt with respect and have done everything they can to make her as comfortable as possible.

Current Review Score: 8.1 (8.104)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.1 (8.104) out of 10 for Louisville Nursing 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 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.1 out of 5 from 1 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 5.000 for Louisville Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (12 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 5
  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 3.104 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Louisville Nursing Home is based on 1 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 = 3
    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 48 registered maximum number of service users is 9.6. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 9.6 = 0.104
  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.
