Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Competent, professional staff from concierge to carers to management, so very helpful and informative when we looked to and did move Mum from another care home. Luxurious rooms and bathrooms. Public areas are like a 5-star hotel. Mum is so much happier!

Review from Hilary A (Daughter of Resident) published on 12 October 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I would like to express on behalf of our family how grateful we are to all the staff at Elton House (and we mean all in every department) for welcoming our mother and settling her into her new environment.
I am a registered nurse and wish to convey the professionalism and excellent standard of care
and communication we have observed/experienced.
This is from the moment I visited to make an enquiry to present day 5/10/18
Within two weeks of moving into Elton House, our mother is now off sedatory medication. She is more communicable, cheerful and mobile.
A pleasure to see and we feel she is in a safe and very caring environment.
Reply from Andrew Moss, Client Liaison Manager at Elton House Care Home - Avery CollectionThank you for your very gracious sentiments. We are delighted that you are so pleased with your mother's progress and very much appreciate you taking the time to express this.

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.842) out of 10 for Elton House Care Home - Avery Collection is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  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 4.842 for Elton House Care Home - Avery Collection is calculated as follows: ( (341 Excellents x 5) + (53 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 399 Ratings = 4.842
  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 Elton House Care Home - Avery Collection 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 95 registered maximum number of service users is 19, 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.

Job Title: Client Liaison Manager Joined: 2023

I have been in the care industry for over 5 years and I am the main contact for families who are looking for a Care Home. I love supporting people, showing prospective residents our stunning home and helping them make the best decision for their loved ones.


Thinking about moving a family member into a Care Home can be a confusing and disconcerting time. Deciding on when it is the right time to move is a big step, it can be daunting and an unsettling time for those involved. I am always available to have a conversation about individual care needs and answer any questions you may have.


Having been through a similar situation with a family member who lived with dementia, I can really understand and empathise with every step of the journey families are having to take. I am passionate about caring and helping people to live well as they grow old and recognise the huge benefits of being in a community filled with love and kindness.
