My mother has received excellent care and attention from all members of staff. They always make family and friends welcome and keep in good communication with relatives. I have never found my mum to be wanting. She is always happy, clean and well cared for. Thank you for all you do.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I found Louisville to be a most caring residence. The staff are exceptional care providers. The residents are happy, clean and well interacted with. The weekly activities are both entertaining and are enjoyed by both staff and residents. It is a safe, clean happy place full of love and respect towards
the residence and for each other among the staff. The owner's appreciation for their staff is second to none.

This is my first time and it won't be my last.
The staff have been very helpful day and night.
The management bend over backwards to help everyone. It's very clean and everyone gets on with everyone. If everything goes to plan I will be back.
Thanks for everything.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Louisville staff are always very friendly and supportive, always keeping the family informed of any medical developments/requirements of the resident.
Nothing is ever too much trouble for them, to make the residents feel that Louisville is their home.
The residents are treated with dignity and kept
clean and tidy, including arranging haircuts, eye tests etc.
Residents personal and religious needs are met (masses arranged), birthday cakes, Christmas presents etc.
Overall, it is a very pleasant environment with excellent care and support.

A friendly atmosphere prevails in the care home. There is a willingness to respond to any questions I might have about my Sister's health and mood. My Sister has been very content there.

My father has been in Louisville Nursing Home for three months. He seems well cared for clean, however, he is unsettled this is due to his condition. I have no other experience of care homes but so far we are pleased that he is safely looked after. We are in agreement that he is in the best possible
place given his dementia and Alzheimer's.

Review from Martine (Granddaughter of Resident) published on 5 October 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 2.0 out of 5
My Granda stayed here for just under 2 weeks. This place needs to be updated badly, between carpets that are frayed and older than me to my granda's bed having no duvet cover on it, just a sheet, one pillow which should have been binned. You could feel every bar on the bed. Others people's clothes
were put on him including a females vest. When I was visiting every day the residents were asking to use the toilet etc and were being ignored by some of the staff. I definitely think this place needs more comfortable surroundings for these elderly people. You are able to access the building by turning the lock on the front door. I think this should be more secure. I can't comment on the food.
Reply from Barry Murphy, Manager at Louisville Nursing Home

I can assure you that every effort is made by our experienced and dedicated staff to ensure the comfort, safety and well-being of our residents. Any issues brought to our attention will always be dealt with in a positive and prompt manner.

Review from Edmund M (Brother of Resident) published on 19 September 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I found Louisville Nursing Home to be a well established well-organised and welcoming place. The entrance hall is adequate, the room where my sister resides is large and comfortable with good ventilation, two large windows, well heated and obviously hygienically well cleaned. The surrounding corridors,
dining room, several communal rooms and toilets are well looked after.
The most important element of this home to satisfy my sister and I is that the kindness, humour and diligence of the staff is of a high order. The nursing she receives is to a high professional standard.
Reply from Barry Murphy, Manager at Louisville Nursing Home

Thank you for your review. We are delighted that our focus in providing quality care in a welcoming environment is apparent. Most importantly, we are pleased that your sister is receiving the care that she deserves and to your satisfaction.

We have been attending relatives in Louisville nursing home for the past twenty years. In that time we have found the staff to be very kind and considerate. We have never had any complaints or problems in that time.
In conclusion, I would recommend this nursing home and all staff to anyone considering
using it.

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.
