Review from Linda S (Daughter of Resident) published on 25 September 2015 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I think the home offers very good medical care. The food and medical sides are well taken care of. There should be more care staff out on the floor attending to the needs of the residents instead of heads down and filing in forms.

My mother has been well looked after since she arrived. There have been few problems. Occasionally, her clothing has not been checked for missing buttons etc. She is extremely deaf and her hearing aid batteries are not always checked and changed.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I would recommend the above care home as I have found the management very friendly, cooperative and always ready to listen to any concerns and problems etc. I have also witnessed friendliness and helpfulness from all the staff, including the carers, hospitality, maintenance and housekeeping in the way
they are all so kind and supportive of my mother. I have developed friendships and a good rapport with many of them. Overall I am very happy and feel that when my mother is not in my presence I know she is in safe and caring hands. Thank you very much.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My sister has been here nearly 3 years, although there have been changes of staff, the care has not suffered and continues to be excellent. If ever my sister needs extra medical care I am informed immediately. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff.

Review from Jo (Daughter of Resident) published on 11 September 2015 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My parents became residents as a couple nearly 3 years ago. My mother needed full nursing care towards the end of her life and throughout she was treated with kindness, gentle good humour and with complete regard for her dignity. The staff at Allingham House care for their residents without role 'demarcation',
and this friendly and caring ethos is evident at all times, without exception; be they cleaning staff, catering staff [hospitality], carers, nurses or activity facilitators: "pinkies" as Mum called them. It is of great comfort in my Father's bereavement, to be surrounded by such intimate awareness and empathy.

Review from Lynnsey M (Daughter of Resident) published on 7 September 2015 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has dementia and has been at Allingham House since February 2015. Prior to this she lived in a flat and had a carer attending 3 times a day. She became very angry and was reticent to venture out of her room. She became a recluse.
At Allingham she now sits in the lounge daily and enjoys the
company of others and all the entertainment. The staff are very diligent, caring and have the ability to bring out the best in each and everyone no matter what their disabilities are. My mother is now happy and contented living in the best environment which provides the highest quality of life which she deserves.

Current Review Score: 9.1 (9.075)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.1 (9.075) out of 10 for Allingham House Care Centre 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 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 13 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 4.319 for Allingham House Care Centre is calculated as follows: ( (123 Excellents x 5) + (29 Goods x 4) + (20 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Poors x 2) + (11 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 188 Ratings = 4.319
  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 4.756 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Allingham House Care Centre is based on 13 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 86 registered maximum number of service users is 17.2. 13 Positive Reviews ÷ 17.2 = 0.756
  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.
