Review from Jennifer W (Sister-in-law of Resident) published on 12 February 2026 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My brother in law moved into Taverham Grove on the day it opened. He settled in immediately. His room is lovely and bright and comfortable. It is spotlessly clean. The staff are very friendly and caring. I have always felt very welcome whenever I visit. My brother in law looks very relaxed and well.
He has advanced dementia and is provided with wooden 'fiddle' puzzle to keep his mind as calm as possible. I am delighted with his care.
Reply from Richard Lain-Smith, Head of Marketing and Social Media at Taverham GroveThank you for your kind comments about Taverham Grove - we were delighted to welcome your brother in law on our opening day.

Review from Mary B (Relative of Resident) published on 28 January 2026 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The surroundings are beautiful and very comfortable and the dining room is like a 5 star hotel. The chef is presenting delicious choices of food and is very accommodating to barbaras vegetarian diet and small appetite. Nothing is too much trouble. All the staff are very attentive and friendly and have
gone to a lot of trouble to make Barbara feel welcome and at home.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.304)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.304) out of 10 for Taverham Grove 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 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.5 out of 5 from 6 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 4.786 for Taverham Grove is calculated as follows: ( (57 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 70 Ratings = 4.786
  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 4.518 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Taverham Grove is based on 6 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 = 3.55
    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 31 registered maximum number of service users is 6.2. 6 Positive Reviews ÷ 6.2 = 0.968
  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.
