My mother was desperately unhappy here. She is a wheelchair user and was effectively imprisoned on the second floor with no working lift throughout her two week stay. The bedding she was given smelt of urine and I had to complain to get it changed. My mother is a vegetarian and her dietary needs were
not properly catered for - she was often given just potatoes and vegetables for her meal.

I am pleased with the way my mother looks. Her well-being and mental health have improved significantly. Staff are approachable and are happy to solve any queries I and my family may have. Staff update my family, when we come to visit, if my mum's welfare and call my family if they need anything. Mum
is not very complimentary in nature but always asks me to thank the staff for their hard work.

I am very happy with the care being given to my uncle. Compared to his previous care home, he appears well-kempt, cheerful and happy in himself. He states that he likes it here, he's able to move about freely and the staff are very nice and fit. He enjoys his food and sleeps well. He is happy that his
partner visits and spends time almost daily. He has gained weight compared to when he was first admitted. His family abroad are seeing him via Whatsapp and recent photos taken and are very happy to see the positive change in his appearance and well-being.

Mum has been here for a couple of months and settled in well. She loves dancing and has been to the seaside. The staff are always very friendly, no matter what time we pop in. Mum likes the food and has made friends here. She has spent a lot of time in the garden and has taken up activities she had
given up some years ago (crocheting/knitting/dancing).

I praise and thank the staff and I mean it from the bottom of my heart. Their job is tough but at the same time, they are nice people. If my mom was living with me, it would literally kill me. It's been so much work and intense enough prior to Mom being a resident of Waterside. So to all of you, I say
kudos.

I visited my mother-in-law and both the deputy manager and the member of care staff were very welcoming. The deputy manager and member of staff were both able to be very informative about my mother-in-law's situation. I could see that she was well-cared for and that she was being treated with dignity
and respect.

Current Review Score: 6.4 (6.420)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 6.4 (6.420) out of 10 for Waterside is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 3.3 out of 5 from 2 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.1 out of 5 from 1 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 3.318 for Waterside is calculated as follows: ( (11 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) + (4 Poors x 2) + (6 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 22 Ratings = 3.318

  • b) 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 3.102 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Waterside is based on 1 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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 = 3

    • ii) 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 49 registered maximum number of service users is 9.8. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 9.8 = 0.102

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
