Review from J H (Daughter of Resident) published on 30 June 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
All staff are very caring and made my mum feel very loved and safe during her time there (nearly 2 years). During lockdown when we were not able to visit, we were able to have telephone calls and speak to my mum which although not the same as a visit, was lovely to have the option of a telephone call.
Always lots of activities for the residents to enjoy and staff to help them. The staff always kept the family up to date with any developments in my mum's condition and her care was discussed regularly. I thank the staff from the bottom of my heart for being there when I couldn't be.

Friendly, helpful and polite staff. The residence was spotlessly clean. Unfortunately, my mother was in during Covid so I am unable to make many observations due to restricted visits. The residents' safety was obviously paramount.

Review from Lesley B (Daughter of Resident) published on 23 June 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mam was admitted to Derwent House after a stroke left her virtually paralysed at the age of 92. Mam had previously been extremely independent so was extremely unhappy at needing all her care needs to be met by others.
The staff were all extremely kind. We had a few hiccups during Mam's stay but the
staff were very professional, working with us to address our concerns. Mam always looked clean and tidy and her room was impeccable. While we appreciate that all the staff work extremely hard our special thanks go to the staff who bore the brunt of my emotional state and frustration at being so far away. Mam was treated with love, dignity and kindness during her stay. She sadly passed away on May 22nd 2022 and we can honestly say that she couldn't have been in a better place.

Mum is receiving excellent care from the staff at Derwent House. She's clean, pain-free and comfortable every time I visit. Her room is lovely and homely and the staff are always considerate and happy, Mum speaks very highly of them all.

Review from David F (Son of Resident) published on 24 January 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum was admitted initially for respite in November 2021. Due to Covid restrictions, we were not able to visit her very often and visits were restricted to 30 minutes. Unfortunately, no visits were allowed at weekends and this would have included Christmas Day and Boxing Day. The food looked extremely
good when I saw it being wheeled past. The TV in her room did not get all channels, probably because it was a tv belonging to the home rather than her own TV. Her room was very clean and the staff attentive and cheerful. I would have rated the home at 3.5-4 stars out of 5 to start with. However, my mum took a turn for the worse fairly suddenly about a week before Christmas and needed end-of-life care. The crisis seemed to bring out the best in everyone and I can't thank the staff enough for being superbly professional, bending the rules appropriately and allowing me, my wife and brother unrestricted access to her bedside during her last 3 days of life.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum has mid-stage dementia, recent decline after a plateau. She comes here for a week respite every few weeks. The staff are kind, respectful, friendly and pleased to see her when I drop her off, she is treated like a best friend. Staff are wonderful. Mum was last here mid-December 2017 I would recommend
here for sure and will continue to use this for respite. I would have no hesitation in using here for as and when mum cannot stay at home.

Extremely well run and professional. The standard of care for my mother was consistently high during her 3 months or so as a resident. Her room was spacious and the food and drink were always provided to a high standard in both quality and quality. Staff were attentive, well motivated and well intentioned.

Current Review Score: 9.1 (9.055)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.1 (9.055) out of 10 for Riverside Care Complex is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.3 out of 5 from 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 10 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 4.286 for Riverside Care Complex is calculated as follows: ( (99 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (9 Poors x 2) + (12 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 140 Ratings = 4.286
  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 4.769 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Riverside Care Complex is based on 10 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 65 registered maximum number of service users is 13. 10 Positive Reviews ÷ 13 = 0.769
  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.
