We found all of the staff very friendly, caring, compassionate and very professional. My uncle was treated with the utmost respect and dignity. It was a great comfort to know that my uncle was safe and being well cared for.

Given that nowhere is going to be perfect for someone you care about, Scholars Mews comes very close. I have been visiting the home over the last six months and I am content that my father is well looked after and happy. I have found EVERYONE, across the board, extremely welcoming and helpful.
The
staff have established good relationships with my father. On the odd occasion I have dealt with the management they have been very responsive.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the home.

All the staff were very welcoming and professional. From the caring staff to the housekeeping staff. My Mum, after settling in, thoroughly enjoyed her stay which allowed us to have a much needed break with the knowledge that she was well looked after. We would thoroughly recommend Scholars Mews to anyone
who needs such a service.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Mum arrived at Scholars Mews in December 2018 for rehabilitation care following a lengthy stay in hospital after breaking her leg. On arrival at Scholars Mews, she was virtually bed-bound due to a complete lack of confidence, and every time she tried to get up she suffered from the most dreadful
panic attacks. However, assisted by the wonderful, caring staff, she soon began to make good progress and her mobility and confidence grew every day. After three months, Mum was mobile enough to return to her own home. I cannot thank the staff at Scholars Mews enough for helping Mum return to her usual self. They are all extremely kind, understanding and dedicated. I would highly recommend Scholars Mews to anyone who is looking for rehabilitation care for a family member.

Mum and dad came to Scholars Mews for respite in May last year and enjoyed their time here so when dad needed full-time care mum and I had no hesitation in choosing Scholars Mews for him. He has received exemplary care now for 4 months. The staff and facilities here are wonderful, his support requires
personal care and physical help at times and I feel that all staff are watchful, always alert to his wellbeing. Thank you Scholars Mews!

A first class care home with helpful staff.
Very flexible as needed to move downstairs.
Food is again first class - better than most restaurants.
Would like a room where everyone gets together for meaningful conversations.

I was widowed on 23/2/18 and because of a resent coccyx injury I was unable to walk and was transferred to a local care home, this happened in Newcastle Upon Tyne. My closet relative is my maternal grandaughter who arranged for my transfer here Scholars Mews where I have no doubt I will remain until
my own death.

All the staff at Scholar Mews Care Home were caring and professional. They were always welcoming in their approach to both residents and their families.
The home itself was clean and beautifully furnished. It had a relaxed ambience. The activities appeared to be well managed and inclusive for all the
residents. I felt happy with the care my mother received while at Scholars Mews Care Home.

My husband's elderly uncle came to Scholars Mews just last week. He is 95 years old and has recently had a major heart attack. After living alone for a great number of years, we have found the staff very sympathetic to his situation.
He is treated with care and dignity. His well-being is high priority.
We
cannot fault the care and kindness shown to him.

I have been here now three weeks and intend to remain for another two. I am writing at a halfway stage to commend most sincerely the staff who are quite outstanding. They smile and are amazingly helpful all through their long hours. Their efforts to entertain a variety of ages and mentality are first
class. (To be continued in two weeks).

Scholars Mews is well led and this was evident from my first contact when we were looking for 24hour care for my mother who has Alzheimers disease. I have found staff diligent and caring whatever concerns have been raised. The lovely, clean, relaxing interiors are beautifully kept.
The range of activities
have really helped my mother's cognitive impairment and reduced her isolation. She is well fed and hydrated. I find her more relaxed and reassured as a result.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.628)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.628) out of 10 for Scholars Mews Care Home - Avery Healthcare is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 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 4.628 for Scholars Mews Care Home - Avery Healthcare is calculated as follows: ( (181 Excellents x 5) + (63 Goods x 4) + (17 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 261 Ratings = 4.628
  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 Scholars Mews Care Home - Avery Healthcare is based on 22 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 64 registered maximum number of service users is 12.8, which has been reached with 22 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.
