The Review Score of 9.8 (9.801) out of 10 for Sharnbrook House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.8 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 4.801 for Sharnbrook House is calculated as follows: ( (134 Excellents x 5) + (31 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 166 Ratings = 4.801
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 Sharnbrook House 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 30 registered maximum number of service users is 6, 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.

Job Title: Interim Home Manager
Joined: 2022
Hello, my name is Lisa Houghton and I am extremely honoured to be the Interim Home Manager of Sharnbrook House.
The team at Sharnbrook House ensure the residents are seen as individuals and they are encouraged by the staff to continue to maintain and enjoy their pastimes to the full.
Sharnbrook House is a 19th century period building situated in idyllic grounds with terraced gardens and pathways leading to its own lake. Sharnbrook House benefits from being in the hub of the village with all the local amenities within a short walking distance.
Sharnbrook House has always been part of the local community and all the staff team and volunteers continue to embrace the village spirit.
I pride myself on always making myself available to all who come into contact with the home and will always find the time to sit and discuss any issues that may arise or just have a chat over a cup of tea.
The staff team and myself strongly believe that all who come into contact with the home should have a positive experience, whether they are residing or just visiting.
I personally believe that this is each individual’s home, not just a care home, where family and friends are always welcome.
Job Title: Deputy Manager
Joined: 1986
My role at Sharnbrook House is rewarding as I am able to care for elderly clients in a
home which is person centred. After 34 years of employment I have seen the home
change over the years and the changes have been all for the better. We are one big happy family.
Job Title: Senior Care Assistant
Joined: 2017
Working as a Senior Care Assistant at Sharnbrook House supporting the residents who live here gives me such pleasure. It’s great to share so much fun and laughter with them, making it feel like we are all one happy family.
Job Title: Head Chef
Joined: 2016
I have been the Head Chef at Sharnbrook House for 15 years and as I love cooking it is my ideal job. We all work hard but still manage to have a laugh and joke with both our colleagues and the residents. We all get on and we make it our mission to ensure the
residents’ stay here is a happy one.
Job Title: Head of Maintenance
Joined: 2010
I was first employed at Sharnbrook House as the gardener in 2010. Ten and half years later I have progressed to Head of Maintenance, responsible for health and safety, risk assessments and fire safety within the home. I enjoy the varying tasks my job holds on a day-to-day basis especially when the residents interact with me whilst I am carrying out my duties, and I treat each one as an individual.
Job Title: Care Assistant
Joined: 2017
I enjoy working as a Care Assistant at Sharnbrook House. The residents who live here are lovely. They pick me up when I am having a bad day by making me laugh.
Job Title: Bookkeeper/Administrator
Joined: 2017
Having worked in my previous employer for over 23 years I took a big leap and applied for a similar position at Sharnbrook House and have been here now for 3 years. I enjoy my work but I especially love the clients who each have varying individual personalities and quirky little ways.
