Review from D B (Daughter of Resident) published on 14 September 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Whilst my mother has only been in Caddington Grove just a short while, her overall care has been excellent. She has impressed both medically and socially. The homemakers are just wonderful making every day and experience for residents.
It would be lovely to see more residents come in to experience
the care but only time and management can make this happen.
A big thank you to you all.

Review from J A T (Daughter of Resident) published on 14 September 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
On phoning around looking for care for my mum I happened to phone Caddington Grove. I spoke to the Community Relations Lead, who was friendly and confident, whose manner meant we eventually selected Caddington for my mum to have her respite care.
On entering the bright, modern, sweet smelling home,
we immediately felt comfortable. It's a luxury home from home.
Mum has had all her needs met from hot baths to whatever meals she requires, head and hand massages in the early hours to help her relax.
5 days in she is very settled and is certainly asking for anything she requires.
She is being encouraged to be independent, so she can hopefully return to her own home again.
The home is open for Cinema Club and the community hair salon means that Mum can continue to visit even after she has returned home.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.853)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.853) out of 10 for Caddington Grove 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 32 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 32 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 4.853 for Caddington Grove Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (331 Excellents x 5) + (43 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 380 Ratings = 4.853
  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 Caddington Grove Care Home is based on 32 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 66 registered maximum number of service users is 13.2, which has been reached with 32 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.

Louise

Louise Chilcott

Job Title: Home Ambassador Joined: 2025

I joined the care sector after many years working with both the UK and US governments, where I advised on and managed relocation policies. While my past career journey gave me valuable experience in problem-solving, communication, and supporting people through big life changes, I felt a strong pull to take my career in a more personal and meaningful direction.


After caring for my late mother, I realised how deeply rewarding it is to support and help families and individuals during challenging times. This experience inspired me to pursue a career in care, where I can give back to society in a hands-on way and make a direct difference in people’s lives.


Outside of work, I have a love for travelling the world and exploring new cultures, as well as reading a wide variety of books to keep learning and broadening my perspective.
