Review from Karen C (Daughter of Resident) published on 2 April 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
As a family, we have struck gold having my dad living in this beautiful care home. My dad had a big move to make and we were so concerned as to how this would affect him. We need not have worried as he has settled very well. Cotswolds Rise is a wonderful place for my dad but also for us to visit as
a family. The care staff are amazing they have taken on board Dad's care needs and have taken the time to find out how he ticks and respected that. Nothing is too much trouble. All the staff are amazing. I would highly recommend this home.

Review from Karrianne W (Granddaughter of Resident) published on 2 February 2024 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
When my grandad moved in he was concerned about moving into a care home. The staff welcomed him with open arms. I have never seen him so happy recently. He gets up and joins in all the activities which take place every day. The facilities are great. The staff have really gone out of their way to make
him settled and happy. When I turn up they always spend time to update me on what he has been doing and invite me to events to join in. What a great place to live! Almost like living in a 5* hotel.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My dad moved into Cotswolds Rise the week before Christmas and has settled in really well. He loves his room which is very comfortable and he feels right at home.
He is well looked after by all the lovely staff, they are very understanding of his needs and are so friendly to him and to the family.
This gives us great peace of mind.
Our whole family had Christmas Day at the home with my dad, we had a lovely Christmas lunch and the staff all made us feel really welcome.
All in all a fabulous care home which is more like a luxury hotel!

Review from G S (Son of Resident) published on 22 January 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father moved into the Cotswolds Rise Home in Purton, Swindon in November 2023. I visited my father during December and saw firsthand how care and administrative staff tended to my father’s everyday care and needs. The home is wonderfully furnished and finished to a very high spec. The highlight for
my father is the food, which is cooked by the brilliant in-house chef. My father has always been rather fussy about his food, even more so when his health deteriorated, but here he’s been especially complimentary about the meals. The chef even baked the most delicious birthday cake for my father too. Thank you.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.860)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.860) out of 10 for Cotswolds Rise 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 26 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 25 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 4.860 for Cotswolds Rise Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (282 Excellents x 5) + (18 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) + (3 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 308 Ratings = 4.86
  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 Cotswolds Rise Care Home is based on 25 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 66 registered maximum number of service users is 13.2, which has been reached with 25 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.
