The home has greatly improved during the last few weeks, the staff are happy and there is a much happier feel to the home. The food is lovely and there is more entertainment happening. I feel this is all down to the new manager and I cannot thank her enough, well done to her.

Reply from Judith Agnew, Registered Manager at Cheriton Care Home

Thank you for your lovely words, its a joy to look after your husband, and look forward to you visiting.

My friend, and donor, was taken by the Cheriton Care Home in February 2022 following discharge from hospital. Reablement services and home care were just not working for her and she was, unfortunately, unable to spend any time alone without 24/7 home care which did not prove a feasible option. The Cheriton
manager and the owner took on my donor without fuss and were able to get her back on track. They made sure she was well cared for 24/7 and treated her with respect and dignity, which above all else mattered most. All the staff are kind and empathetic.
My donor has Parkinson's and dementia and the staff were patient and kind at all times making sure I felt at ease when leaving her there or in-between visits. She has now been discharged following eight months of care.

Availability of a lighter, brighter and larger room, now my aunt is confined to bed, has enhanced her well-being and made life easier for the carers to manage her needs.
Unfortunately, the loss of senior staff and carers has put a strain on those remaining who still give their best to those under their
care.

My mother has been in Cheriton since September 2015 and she is extremely happy there and we are very happy with the care she receives. Staff go the extra mile to spend time talking with her and are always seeking ways to make her content. Over the last two years, they have done their best to help us
keep in contact.

My mother loves where she is, she has dementia. The staff are all lovely, especially the staff that have been there a long time. Food is great and so is the chef. I do not find that the cleaning is good though. At present, the cleaner is on holiday so not much is being done as the job will have to be
put on the other staff who are all overworked as it is. They do their best. I find that staffing is a problem as nobody, meaning the owners, will spend any money. If the present manager had left, I would have to move my mother and put her elsewhere!

Current Review Score: 7.9 (7.852)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 7.9 (7.852) out of 10 for Cheriton 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 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.2 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 4.667 for Cheriton Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (8 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 4.667

  • 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 3.185 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Cheriton Care Home 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 27 registered maximum number of service users is 5.4. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 5.4 = 0.185

  • 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.
