Review from Linda H (Daughter of Resident) published on 27 March 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother moved into Alder House in November 2016, she was diagnosed with Alzheimer's 8 years ago. The difference in her is amazing. Mum is a very active person and gets bored easily but there is so much going on at Alder House that she doesn't have time to get bored, Her dementia seems to have gone
back a stage, she can now hold a conversation again and can join in and understand activities such as Bingo, Boules, Knitting and lots more which she had lost the ability to do. I can't thank Alder House and all of the staff enough for giving my lovely mum back to me and giving her a life worth living.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father suffers from Parkinson's disease and had memory and mobility problems. He came for respite stay and is now a permanent resident. The staff are wonderful, caring, joyful and attentive. The activities coordinators provide many different activities to cover all abilities and interests and there
is always something going on. The rooms are clean and bright and the garden is lovely. I would certainly recommend Alder House highly.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.902)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.902) out of 10 for Alder House Care Home - Avery Healthcare 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 26 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 26 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 4.902 for Alder House Care Home - Avery Healthcare is calculated as follows: ( (279 Excellents x 5) + (22 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 305 Ratings = 4.902
  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 Alder House Care Home - Avery Healthcare is based on 26 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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, which has been reached with 26 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.
