The Review Score of 9.7 (maximum of 10) for Heathfield Court Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 10 Reviews over all time. This Average Rating is also the rating value for Heathfield Court Care Home in Google's Search Results - more info
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 10 positive Reviews in the last 12 months.
a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating of all Reviews over all time. For each review the Care Home / service is rated Excellent, Good, Satisfactory, Poor or Very Poor on a number of areas eg Staff, Management etc. The Care Home receives points for each rating as follows: Excellent = 5. Good = 4. Satisfactory = 3. Poor = 2. Very Poor = 1. These points are added up and then divided by the total number of completed ratings to generate the average rating.
The Average Rating of 4.942 for Heathfield Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (113 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 120 Ratings = 4.942
b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 12 months. If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with 'Extremely Likely' or 'Likely' in answer to the question 'How likely are you to recommend this Care Home to friends and family if they needed similar care or treatment?'
The 5 points available are broken down as follows:
4 points are available for the first 5 Positive Reviews, 3 points for the first Positive Review and then 0.25 Points for each of the next 4 Positive Reviews.
1 point is available for reaching a target number of Positive Reviews based on 20% of the number of registered maximum number of service users. If the target is partially reached then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home with 50 registered maximum number of service users has a target of 10 Positive Reviews, if it has 10 or more Positive Reviews it will receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews will receive 0.7 points.
If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. The calculation is the same as above, except the points are divided by 2.
The 4.758 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Heathfield Court Care Home is based on 10 positive Reviews in the last 12 months and is calculated as follows:
3 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 = 4
Target of 13.2 positive Reviews (66 registered maximum number of service users ÷ 5). 10 Reviews ÷ 13.2 Target = 0.758
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
Heathfield Court Care Home has a Review Score of 9.7 (9.700) from 10 Reviews

First class establishment. Well managed, clean and friendly. More than anything, the staff are fantastic. The care they gave my relative was exceptional, not once did I worry about her security and care. I would highly recommend Heathfield Court, they go beyond any expectations and leave you confident that the care provided will be second to none.

We moved my mother here from another local home. The difference could not be greater in every way. She is happy here and we are happy to visit and leave knowing she is being well looked after.

The manager and her deputy run the care home with attention, not just to the residents but to their environment too. They also pay attention to the relatives and the small details that make for a very 'tight ship'.
The home is very well run, everybody - nursing, cleaning, maintenance, kitchen, carers, laundry, bistro and entertainment staff all know the residents and make it their job to find out about the residents who treat them with respect.
We are always made to feel most welcome with nothing is too much trouble for the staff. It's the place I would want to go to!!!

This is a new home but in a relatively short time, it has developed an exceptional standard of care. The staff are caring and committed and led by an amazing management team.
Involvement and engagement are at the forefront of what they do.

I feel fortunate to have secured a place for our mum in Heathfield Court. The standard of care, the environment, activities, housekeeping and food are all excellent.
From the home manager and deputy, nurses, carers and the "wider team" all treat our mum and other residents with great care and respect. You have the sense that they genuinely care, not just caring for, but caring about our mum (and others).
