Review from Jill B (Daughter of Resident) published on 17 August 2022 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Dad has been treated with dignity at Avon Valley from the start. It was such a comfort during lockdown to know that he was being cared for so well and that he was content. Now in his final days and weeks perhaps - it is clear that all staff are doing their very best to ensure he is comfortable, pain-free,
and has people around who genuinely care about him.
The only small comment would be about fairly unimaginative options for gluten-free or some carers giving Dad food that contains gluten, 'it's only one biscuit!'.
Because Dad has always been such a small eater and has not taken part in activities Value for Money was probably less.
Reply from Alyson Day, Home Manager at Avon Valley Care Home - Avery Healthcare

Thank you for your review of Avon Valley Care Home in Bristol. We always set out to do the best for your father and all the residents. We continue to provide special diets for the residents that require them, even if they don't appreciate or want the food provided by their choice. He was very well known and loved by us all, he is fondly remembered. Your thoughtful and kind words of thanks will be shared with all our staff team. Best wishes, Alyson.

Dad has felt safe at Avon Valley and has become part of the 'team' during his stay, and often involving himself with office/admin. Although Dad has not wanted to join in with all activities available, he has liked to see others enjoy themselves. His appetite is small but he has enjoyed his meals. Gluten-free
options could be improved.

Mum came to Avon Valley in December 21 after trying to keep her at home as long as possible as we felt best for her. Always an upsetting time for families but once visited Avon Valley, we were reassured and it has far exceeded expectations. Cannot praise you all highly enough. Mum is well cared for,
stimulated, and happy. Thank you so much.

My father has been very reluctant to consider a care home until his poor health forced the issue. I have been so pleased and relieved regarding the excellent care my father now receives. The home is so beautifully decorated and has the very best surroundings. The gardens are a pleasure and every detail
is taken care of. The very best a care home can offer.

I feel that Avon Valley Care Home has saved my husband's life. All the help and support my husband and I have received has been fantastic. Whenever I have a problem and speak to a member of staff if they don't know the answer they will find out and come back. My health wasn't very good when my husband
came to Avon Valley, knowing how well he is doing has improved my health. Congratulations to all.

I enjoy a wonderfully close relationship with my Grandfather who was diagnosed with dementia. I also work in advocacy/social work and when we realised we couldn't keep him safe at home anymore, did a lot of research into care homes in the area. I wanted him to have the best we could find. He went in
for respite/trial. Within a week he was telling me he didn't want to go home. 8 months on, he's gone from looking confused, vacant, withdrawn, and lost, to being the bright, sunny and shiny chap we thought we'd lost to dementia. He's a regular feature on their social media page, and will tell anyone that'll listen, that the staff are wonderful, the food is lovely (he's put on a stone!) and he has made friends. His well-being has improved more than we ever dared to hope and he's so so happy. Other family members have seen this improvement in him and placed their relative in there too. It's the staff that make it, they are another breed of wonderful. It's like he's come back to us.

I have visited many care home facilities over the years but Avon Valley at Kingswood, Bristol is undoubtedly the best! An excellent modern facility with good rooms, lounges, cafe bars, hairdressing salon, library, patios, and a sun deck lounge. The staff are very friendly and attentive and, with most
of them being from the local area, they also relate well with the residents. We couldn't have chosen a better place for my wife's uncle.

The care home seems very well organised and all staff I have met are helpful, caring, and friendly. Overall everything is excellent, the only areas I would comment further on are:-
Rooms - it would be nice to be able to personalise them more.
Food - due to covid restrictions I have no experience of
meals but mum looks well fed.
Activities - it would be nice to know what activities mum has taken part in each week, even if offered and declined.
Value - I guess it is but increase to around £5,000 per month is big.

The care that Mum received at Avon Valley Care Home was excellent. The staff are friendly, helpful and professional. They encouraged her out of her room to join in a variety of lovely activities on offer. The food and meals were all very nourishing. The rooms are lovely, clean and bright. There is a
beautiful garden to sit in. We cannot thank all the staff at Avon Valley Care Home enough for all their hard work and care for residents during this difficult year with Covid. They made the last two years of mum's life comfortable and enjoyable as it could be. We would highly recommend.

The pandemic has been extremely challenging but the staff have tried very hard to help with visits once they were allowed. They are always really helpful and friendly. Mum often feels very ill although it's not clear why and I feel they give her very good and compassionate care. I would definitely recommend

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.672)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.672) out of 10 for Avon Valley Care Home - Avery Healthcare is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 44 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 44 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 4.672 for Avon Valley Care Home - Avery Healthcare is calculated as follows: ( (379 Excellents x 5) + (123 Goods x 4) + (25 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 527 Ratings = 4.672
  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 Avon Valley Care Home - Avery Healthcare is based on 44 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 78 registered maximum number of service users is 15.6, which has been reached with 44 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.

Alyson Day

Job Title: Home Manager Joined: 2019

Hello, my name is Alyson, and I am delighted to be the Home Manager here at Avon Valley.


Joining and commissioning Avon Valley Care Home in 2019 was a dream come true. I have successful developed my staff into good ways of practice and built a team that are proud and respectful of what they do. My passion for this home comes not only from my 40 years’ experience within the healthcare sector but also from my own personal life. I’ve had a very personal experience of a loved one needing dementia care, and I understand the emotional turmoil and difficulty in letting go or trusting someone else to care for that person.


Prior to becoming a Home Manager, my previous roles within the sector have been Residential Service Officer, Care Assistant, Nurse Auxiliary and Deputy Manager. I have also developed my skills by achieving qualifications such as NVQ Level 2, 3 and 4, and also ILM.


Within this time, I have shared many treasurable moments with the residents I have had the pleasure to meet along the way. Seeing my residents smile each day brings the motivation to perform my role at the highest level.


I would best describe myself as someone who is friendly and approachable. If you would ever need assistance with anything, I will always be on hand to help. In my spare time, I love spending time with my family, gardening and I can’t wait to be able to travel once restrictions are eased.
