I consider that my mother-in-law gets an excellent package of care here at Heather Grange. Lets put it this way if I was unfortunate to need nursing care I would want to come to this home.

Very welcoming and accommodating home. All efforts made for the residents and their families. It is a pleasure to visit. I knew my niece would be looked after very well here because my mother-in-law is already in Heather Grange. I also recommended it to another family. The staff are always pleasant
and approachable and are always willing to listen to queries. They make the greatest of efforts to make everyone relaxed and comfortable. Brilliant.

Right from day one we were very impressed with the "feel" of Heather Grange, looking like a five star hotel and most importantly the manager and her team. The whole approach to everything was so bubbly and positive and very comforting maintained. We can not praise them enough and when the occasions
arise, we really tell people in great depth about how pleased we are with the excellent standards of care etc, etc.

The staff and carers are really nice. I really enjoy a game of bingo and having my nails painted.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.926)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.926) out of 10 for Heather Grange is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 17 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.926 for Heather Grange is calculated as follows: ( (190 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 203 Ratings = 4.926

  • b) 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 Heather Grange is based on 17 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 70 registered maximum number of service users is 14, which has been reached with 17 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
