Review from Aine K (Daughter-in-law of Resident) published on 2 November 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have just returned from visiting a new resident to your facility who is sadly suffering with Alzheimer's. My mother in law has been unwell for a while and the family wanted to see how a short stay would be taken by her. While she was confused at times she was welcomed in by all the staff and to our
great pleasure, we were made aware of the daily activities provided by this facility. She participated in all activities as the staff would come to collect her each day.
The facility is warm, clean and the food and service provided were excellent. Myself and my husband who was worried about how she would react to this change were grateful that she was being very well looked after and all her needs were being met by the incredibly friendly staff.

Both my parents came into Osbourne House after Dad had a series of falls. Mum has Alzheimer’s but they got a room together here and they are very happy. The staff have been brilliant in nursing Dad back to health. I would not hesitate in recommending this home based on the current permanent staff working
here. They go the extra mile for all the residents with friendliness, care and compassion.

Modern home dealing with multiple levels of care need, over three floors.
Good range of activity programmes and additional support services such as hairdresser, chiropodist and dentist.
Staff are supportive and attentive but could do with more of them to better cover busy periods.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have visited Osbourne House on more than one occasion. A neighbour of mine was in there for respite. The staff were all so welcoming and friendly nothing was too much trouble, my neighbour speaks very highly of the care home which was a comfort to see as it was an initial worry when we heard she was
going to go in for a short time. She is now home and still misses Osbourne House. The home is neat and tidy and the decoration is very tasteful.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother had respite care in Osborne House for two weeks and was treated with care and respect by all staff. They were friendly and supportive and she enjoyed being there. She was initially opposed to entering any care home, but her views have changed and she said that she would return there again.
We are very grateful to all the staff who contributed and made her feel welcome.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Dad has been in Osborne House for over 2 years and in that time we have seen several changes but the overall experience has been consistently positive. The important factor for us is that Dad believes the care and attention he receives is excellent. The family takes comfort from this knowing that when
we leave he will be happy and content.

Mum had previous experience of Osborne House as she had respite a few months ago.
So when the needs arose, we knew it would be our first choice for permanent care.
Staff were very welcoming and helpful in supporting us through the whole transition.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.872)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.872) out of 10 for Osborne House 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 21 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 4.872 for Osborne House is calculated as follows: ( (222 Excellents x 5) + (24 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 250 Ratings = 4.872
  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 Osborne House is based on 21 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 74 registered maximum number of service users is 14.8, which has been reached with 21 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.
