Review from Karen W (Daughter of Resident) published on 31 October 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Dad is currently staying at Saxon Manor for 2 weeks respite with a view to living here. Dad is thriving here and loving it - he said that he is looking forward to living here. All of the staff have been wonderful, not just with Dad, but also with me. I am Dad's main carer and they are keeping me involved
and informed. I feel that we are working together to ensure Dad's stay is successful and he settles well. Nothing is too much trouble. Everyone, no matter what their role is in the home, is friendly. Even when Dad and I initially visited with my 4 pages of questions (plus following up with more in several emails!) I wasn't made to feel that I was being a pain or a problem. Other family members who have visited Dad there, have fed back how happy they feel he is. Even though Dad may not be actually staying at Saxon Manor at the time, we have already been invited to attend one of their events in November.
We are both so happy that we chose Saxon Manor for Dad's care.

Your feedback is truly invaluable to us and our team who strive for the best standards of care for our residents.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.667)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.667) out of 10 for Saxon Manor Care Home - Avery Collection is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 14 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 4.817 for Saxon Manor Care Home - Avery Collection is calculated as follows: ( (158 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) + (3 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 175 Ratings = 4.817
  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 4.85 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Saxon Manor Care Home - Avery Collection is based on 14 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 = 3.85
    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 14 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.
