Review from Liz O (Mother of Resident) published on 17 November 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
Our son went into Meyrick Cottage 17th September 2025 for respite.
Lack of care given. Everytime we phoned he was on his own in room. He suffers from constipation but they could never say if bowels had been opened
No common sense used re medication when it was clear he was in pain. They refused to
give him paracetamol even though I asked them to
He complained of toothache in the morning at breakfast and it wasn't until 2pm on a Fri that anyone tried to make a dentist appt so it was the following week he was seen by a dentist who confirmed he was in considerable pain.
No Care Plan was done for him by Meyrick staff
It was suggested to myself and my husband that we phone our son Tues and Thurs at 7pm! We found this to be unbelievable. Who are they to tell us when we can ring our son?
He was given sugar and white bread and when we complained we were told he can make his own choices
Staff rude and disrespectful to parents and carers

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 2.100 for Meyrick Cottage is calculated as follows: ( (3 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) + (6 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 10 Ratings = 2.1
  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 0 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Meyrick Cottage is based on 0 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) =
    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 6 registered maximum number of service users is 1.2. 0 Positive Reviews ÷ 1.2 = 0
  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.
