Review from R H (Son-in-law of Resident) published on 20 July 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This home provides fine facilities with staff that really exhibit a caring attitude. The home has become the home for both in-laws and they settled into the changes in their lives very well. It is welcomed to see that ‘strict’ Covid practices still remain in place. The staff do seem to go that extra
mile to ensure the comfort, care and wellbeing of residents. Although the number of visitors is controlled, as a visitor we are treated with the same respect and friendliness as the residents by all the staff.

I visited my nan and she was happy and the staff were friendly. They knocked when they came into the room and they were so respectful to my nan. She is so happy and my mum no longer needs to worry about my nan.

Review from J W (Son of Resident) published on 20 July 2022 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father had 2 weeks' respite at Aspen Manor, they looked after him in a professional way. They're kind, caring and nothing was of trouble to them. He had a daily newspaper, a phone in his room, for no extra cost. Dad wants to go back next time I go on holiday.

Review from Susan H (Wife of Resident) published on 29 June 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This new home is beautifully appointed and has wonderful facilities. From the outset, the staff have been helpful and caring. It took a while for my husband to settle, and their caring attitude extended to me too. At the time of writing, there were only a few residents and so the lovely activity room
is not yet in use. Covid practice is still in place and the number of visitors is controlled. We have experienced real personal care and the staff have put thought into making my visits special. My one slight personal niggle is the piped music which doesn't always seem necessary but it probably adds to a cheerful ambiance for the staff!
Reply from Sharon Almey, General Manager at Aspen Manor Care Home
Dear Susan, thank you for your kind review. I will share your feedback with the rest of the team and I'm sure they will be delighted. Once again, thank you!

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.679)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.679) out of 10 for Aspen Manor Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 29 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 28 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 4.679 for Aspen Manor Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (257 Excellents x 5) + (65 Goods x 4) + (11 Satisfactorys x 3) + (6 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 340 Ratings = 4.679
  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 Aspen Manor Care Home is based on 28 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 78 registered maximum number of service users is 15.6, which has been reached with 28 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.
