Report
The home is bright and airy and doesn't feel 'institutional'. There are a lot of modern touches - A smart speaker playing music everywhere, tablets for entry/exit check in, etc. Her room was VERY large and we were encouraged to make it homely even though she was only there for a short time.
I can't praise the team enough and wish my mum's condition hadn't deteriorated meaning she had to move elsewhere.
A heartfelt thank you to all involved. You should be proud of the care you're providing - not only to your residents but also to their friends and family.

Thank you for your glowing review. It is not unusual for us to have initially reluctant residents move in and it is very rare that we do not overcome this challenge by making them feel at home and comfortable within their surroundings. The support and patience of families are also vital in us achieving this and we thank you and your family for that. It is also lovely of you to mention so many of our different staff as, for us to be able to provide a successful service, we all have to play a part in making people feel welcome in our home.

Thank you very much for your review and we do appreciate that during certain times of the day it may be more challenging to contact us via telephone. Please be assured that during normal working hours, I am usually just at the end of the phone. However, if ever there is something urgent that needs discussing please feel free to email either myself or any of the officers or management directly and we will always do our best to assist.

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.747) out of 10 for Kallar Lodge Residential Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 14 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.
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 4.747 for Kallar Lodge Residential Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (124 Excellents x 5) + (35 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 162 Ratings = 4.747
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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kallar Lodge Residential Care Home 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:
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 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
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 44 registered maximum number of service users is 8.8, which has been reached with 14 Positive reviews. Points = 1
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.
