Thank you for your review, we are of course extremely disappointed to hear that you and your mother had a negative experience on Christmas day.
Thank you for giving us the opportunity to meet with you and your family this weekend to discuss the areas of concern that you have raised in further detail. As we discussed we will also formally respond to your review, to detail the points we discussed with you both.
Regarding the music and atmosphere, the feedback that we have from our residents is that they do not like to have music playing whilst eating meals in the dining area, as this can make it difficult to hear conversations around the dinner table. We will of course raise this at the next committee meeting to see if this is still the case and if they would like to make an exception for Christmas Day or any other event.
Many of our residents need to take medication and we will always ensure that we follow the medication schedule set by the GP team, thus making it necessary to administer medication during the lunch service.
Christmas as in any household can sometimes be a little hectic on Christmas day as we have many family members joining their loved ones for dinner and also many residents who are visiting family over the Christmas period and need medication and care handovers, we always maintain an open door policy for family members to visit. During the Christmas period we have provided a vast array of different Christmas activities and productions which has been welcomed by all our residents and we have had very positive feed back from residents and families alike.
We will of course take your review to the residents committee meeting to discuss any further improvements that can be made to the Christmas day experience.
Please be assured that any issues that you may have can be directly addressed through our complaints procedure as advertised and displayed around the home alternatively please report any issues to a member of the senior management team so that we can rectify any problems swiftly.
We are glad to hear that this was just a one-off experience and that you and your mother have not experienced any negative visits previously. We do hope that you will continue to enjoy the standard of our complimentary hospitality that we are pleased to provide family members.
We thank you for your Excellent 5* review with regard Care/Support, Cleanliness, Management, Rooms, Safety and Security.

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.811) out of 10 for Rayners 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 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 4.811 for Rayners is calculated as follows: ( (255 Excellents x 5) + (33 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 297 Ratings = 4.811
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 Rayners 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 45 registered maximum number of service users is 9, 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.
