Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The staff are incredibly nice. Everyone is so friendly and helpful. From the moment I walked in until I left, I felt so at home and so wonderfully welcomed. I was able to take part in some activities which was a lot of fun.
I had the privilege of eating lunch one of the days while visiting mum.
The food was absolutely delicious.
Thank you for making my visit with mum so amazing. I always look forward to visiting her in such a lovely welcoming care facility.

I was not looked forward to leaving my home but I was delighted to find how happy I was to have been staying at Rivermere! Everyone was so kind and caring and also helpful when I got lost! (leaving the lift on the wrong floor!)I had everything I might need in my room and all the food was really good
so meals were enjoyable. I didn't take part in many of the activities because it was lovely to have time to read my books!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My sister-in-law lived at Rivermere for nine months until June of this year. Family and friends were all very impressed at how welcoming and friendly the Home felt when we visited. A lot of thought had gone into the decor, the bedrooms and lounges felt homely, and there was a good variety of activities
for residents to enjoy. We also noticed how kind, caring and patient staff were with all the residents. The Manager of the Meadow Floor and her staff were always very approachable and generous with their time when we had questions about how to respond to my sister-in-law's needs. We were therefore very sad when we had to move my sister-in-law to a nursing home because her dementia had deteriorated further. However, Rivermere's staff were helpful and supportive during this process.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum has a beautifully appointed apartment on the first floor with great views and a sunny aspect. It was important for her that she could furnish it with all of her own things to make it home from home. She has settled in well and enjoys the wide variety of activities and outings arranged, including
the extensive gardens, weather permitting, keep fit, crafting and musical afternoons to name but a few. There are lovely well kept communal areas throughout the home including a cinema, library, coffee shop and dining room which make it feel very special. Staff are very caring, helpful and there is a good homely atmosphere and vibe throughout with visitors always welcome at any time. Importantly she has the companionship and friendship of many other like-minded residents and has made some good friends. Residents are able to live as independently or not as needed which is a real plus. I cannot recommend Rivermere Care Home highly enough if you are looking for residential care for a loved one in the Sevenoaks area.

My mother has now been at Rivermere Care Home for nearly 3 years. She always says that she is very happy there. She thinks the staff are wonderful, and she appreciates their friendly and caring manner. Whenever I come to the Home, I am also impressed with their caring attitude toward all the residents.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother and father entered Rivermere Care Home in May 2022 and shared a room until my mother died on Christmas Eve 2024. My father then moved into a smaller room, but still on the ground floor with a view of the garden. Over Christmas my wife and I went over to Rivermere for a very good lunch with
my father on Christmas Day and again on New Year's Day. My sister and her husband joined my father for another good lunch on Boxing Day. It is good to be able to join residents on special occasions such as these.
The staff and facilities are very good and treat my father with the dignity that a 97 year old deserves.
There are regular quarterly meetings held by management with the residents and then later that day with relatives. These meetings keep residents and relatives abreast of issues in the home and forthcoming developments. They also allow residents and relatives to raise any issues or concerns with the running of the home.

Rivermere Care Home is where my 91-year-old dad is currently. He had a traumatic year last year and my sister and I decided it was time for him to be safe in a home. We went to see a few but this one I loved from the moment I walked in. A beautiful big open welcome reception.. with extremely friendly
and competent receptionists. It's warm, smells lovely and he is very well looked after. If we have had any concerns, these are dealt with really quickly and professionally. Couldn't recommend it highly enough!

My dad came into your home for holiday respite care whilst family members were on holiday. We were impressed with the care he received however on occasions he did run out of clothes because his dirty clothes had not been laundered. Also, he came home with some clothes that did not belong to him and
some of his were missing, even though they were clearly marked. His teeth were not removed at night or cleaned and his hearing aids were not put in correctly, more training is needed. But overall we were happy.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.473)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.473) out of 10 for Rivermere Care Home - Avery Healthcare is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 30 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 29 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 4.473 for Rivermere Care Home - Avery Healthcare is calculated as follows: ( (214 Excellents x 5) + (103 Goods x 4) + (33 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) + (3 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 355 Ratings = 4.473
  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 Rivermere Care Home - Avery Healthcare is based on 29 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 102 registered maximum number of service users is 20.4, which has been reached with 29 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.
