My mum has been a resident at Blossoms Care Home since February 2021. When I first took Mum into care, I was understandably nervous about leaving her in a new environment. I very quickly felt reassured as I witnessed my mum being treated with genuine care, compassion and kindness by the team, who I
know love Mum. Thank you.

Mum's been there a while now. The staff are so kind, caring and loving to every single person who lives there who comes in to visit. Sorts your problems, if any, which I haven't found going there each week. The manager keeps us informed if anything changes, i.e. food and mum's health, etc. Credit to
you all, and thank you for being so caring.

My mum is a resident of the care home, she became resident in October 2022, the care staff within the home are excellent, they always treat Mum with the greatest respect. Laughing and joking with her. They do whatever is needed to give her the best possible care, keeping her busy with activities like
bird feeder making, playing darts, doing word searches and puzzles, painting stones for the garden, colouring pictures. She is very happy and well looked after. Every picture I see of her on their social media page is Mum smiling away, having her nails painted, wearing funny hats, or the weekly exercise group. They've had a couple of parties since she's been there too, a Christmas and one for the Coronation. The manager and her team of many carers are amazing, they are all approachable, give their time effortlessly, and most of all, they enjoy caring for the residents. Thank you to the manager and team at Blossoms Care Home
for everything you do for Mum, I know she appreciates it, you can see it in her face.

My husband has been a resident at Blossoms since January 2022. I chose the home because when I visited, the staff were very caring towards the residents and families. I have always found them to be so. When my husband has been poorly, they get help or call 999 very promptly and he has received the appropriate
treatment. All of the carers and staff put their residents' safety and care first. There are always activities going on during the day. My family and I are always made very welcome at any time of the day or night.

My mother entered Blossoms Care Home towards the end of 2021 and I was able to visit from overseas in June this year. I found all the staff I encountered on my daily visits over a ten-day period to be friendly and caring. Everyone appeared very knowledgeable of the individual residents and their needs
and preferences.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.284)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.284) out of 10 for Blossoms Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 4 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.3 out of 5 from 4 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 5.000 for Blossoms Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (47 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 47 Ratings = 5

  • 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 4.284 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Blossoms Care Home is based on 4 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 = 3.375

    • 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 22 registered maximum number of service users is 4.4. 4 Positive Reviews ÷ 4.4 = 0.909

  • 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.
