Review from Nicki R (Daughter of Resident) published on 4 August 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Since mum has moved to Gracewell, I have been so pleased to see how much care has been given to her, ensuring that her needs and preferences are properly understood and great effort made so she is happy, comfortable and engaged.
The way that care is communicated by all the staff creates a genuinely
happy and upbeat environment. A huge effort is made to provide her with activities she maybe interested in, and the chef works enthusiastically to provide excellent meals, individualised wherever needed.
We had huge reservations about moving Mum from her home but it was clear she needed more than could be provided there. We couldn't be more relieved at how well she has settled in Gracewell and now appears comfortable and more contented.

From the first meeting to look around this home to moving mum in shortly after, the staff have been amazing. We couldn't have chosen anywhere better. It is welcoming, friendly and the care is wonderful. Mum is happy and so are we. No more worries and confident she is safe, happy and well cared for.

Review from Richard S (Son of Resident) published on 21 June 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother moved from another care home at the end of April 2017. Straight away she felt perfectly at home, with helpful care staff who could not do enough to help her to settle in comfortably.
A particular highlight is the catering which is of an extremely high standard. We were particularly impressed
with the way the Head Chef came to talk with residents and find out about their likes and dislikes, and then act on them.
My mother's room is cleaned to a very high standard, and our overall view of the building and the grounds is one of being as near to one's own home as is possible. My mother said to me that she "feels safe". The staff are friendly and approachable and we feel we can go to them with any query, no matter how small, and know it will be actioned.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.808)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.808) out of 10 for Rush Hill Mews is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 34 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 34 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 4.808 for Rush Hill Mews is calculated as follows: ( (337 Excellents x 5) + (54 Goods x 4) + (10 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 402 Ratings = 4.808
  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 Rush Hill Mews is based on 34 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 62 registered maximum number of service users is 12.4, which has been reached with 34 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.

Caroline Farrell

Job Title: General Manager

I’ve worked in the care sector for nearly 30 years and am passionate about dementia care and end-of-life care, in particular, I’m currently studying for a Masters's degree in dementia care studies.


In this role, it’s important to lead by example and to keep a calm head. Knowledge and experience are important, I started out as a carer and worked my way up, so I know the challenges faced by my team.


Care UK’s ethos of care, which puts residents at the heart of everything, echoes my own values. The organisation also offers superb training and development opportunities so that colleagues can learn and progress in their careers.


I am focused on continuous improvement and have worked on a number of initiatives aimed at enhancing the quality of life for people with dementia, including using technology to promote health and wellbeing. I’m looking forward to supporting the team at Rush Hill Mews to achieve outstanding levels of care.
