Thank you for your kind words. Mum has been here at our home for many years and you and your family have always been very supportive, also of our team. Your kind words and continued praise of how the team worked through the lockdown made a lot of positive difference, as comments like yours gave strength and confidence to our team. Mum continues to do well and has enjoyed your garden visits. Please know that you can always come to us with anything at all, we are always happy to help.

Thank you very much for all the valuable support you have given to your Dad and our team over the last few years. We are very fortunate to have a relative as understanding and able to work with the team as yourself. The pandemic has been an unprecedented experience for all of us and our team were always confident in giving care to Dad, partially because it has been made easier for us by your continued support. You have always been flexible and understanding and were always willing to put your own personal interest behind your Dad’s and all of our other residents when in-house visits became impossible. Your positive and understanding outlooks are much appreciated and we would like to genuinely thank you from the whole team.

Thank you for your kind words. Our team really appreciate all your support, too. Your mum knows that she is loved and well looked after by both, her family and our staff here. She continues to do well and makes all of our lives richer, simply by being herself. Hopefully things will go back to normal soon, and we can all see more of each other. In the meantime, all the best to you and yours,

Many thanks for taking the time to write a review for us. It has been absolute pleasure for us to look after your mum and she has been settling really well. Of course, this wouldn’t have been possible without the relentless support that we received from you and your family. Thank you for your kind words about the staff and the home. I will be sharing your thoughts with my team. It is always good to hear positive feedback and we all hope that we are able to meet your expectations all the time.

Thank you so much for these kind words, they are much appreciated. Thank you, too, for your continued support over the many years we have known each other. Your father is very lucky to have such dedicated and loving children. Your visits always bring joy to our home, especially so when you come with his great-grandchildren, who bring happiness to all of us. You also have been of great support with our Chaplain, and I would like to thank you for the Poetry Circle you led for a while. Together, we have worked towards your dad’s happiness and contentment, and we feel much obliged and honoured to be able to look after such a wonderful and kind gentleman. I wish you a very happy, healthy and prosperous New Year 2019.

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.735) out of 10 for The Meadow 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 25 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 24 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 4.735 for The Meadow is calculated as follows: ( (212 Excellents x 5) + (67 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 283 Ratings = 4.735
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 The Meadow is based on 24 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 40 registered maximum number of service users is 8, which has been reached with 24 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.
