Review from Jackie H (Daughter of Resident) published on 6 November 2015 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I was worried when mum had to go into a care home due to deterioration in her dementia. I had my reservations as there is a lack of basic care for dementia in all areas of health service and the community. I dreaded the moment but her room is nice and clean. There is no smell in the care home that you
usually get and its not run down the kitchen is also hygienic and meals are good, taking into account what she can eat which they adhered to. The staff are very friendly and professional. We've had our questions and concerns which is natural and have been reassured. They are so caring towards mum. Making sure all her needs are met. I would dare not believe it but she is safe, clean and looked after which makes all the difference. Although when the time came when she needed 24 hr residential care it was a big impact, also on the family to which they have been very understanding too. Mum has been here for 5 yrs.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.538)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.538) out of 10 for Moorland Gardens Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 11 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 4.850 for Moorland Gardens Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (109 Excellents x 5) + (17 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 127 Ratings = 4.85
  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 4.688 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Moorland Gardens Care Home is based on 11 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 80 registered maximum number of service users is 16. 11 Positive Reviews ÷ 16 = 0.688
  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.
