Our mum was in Garland House for nearly 4 years until she sadly passed away in October. We thought Mum wouldn’t last long when she went into Garland as she was so frail, but due to the wonderful care given to her by all the staff who kept her going with chats, motivation and encouragement to join in
all the afternoon activities and lovely fresh food cooked on the premises, she went on for another 4 years.
The manager and all of her wonderful team became like an extended family to us and we cannot thank them enough for the devotion shown to Mum, particularly in her final week.

Long-standing local staff make this care home a 'home from home'. Small and cosy, close to local shops and bus stops for the more mobile of residents to be able to get out for a stroll.
The team have really pulled out all the stops this past year contending with this awful pandemic - all residents
remain safe and well and have now all received their first vaccination. A testament to the dedication of all the staff team under the guidance of the manager.
We couldn't wish for a more supportive and caring establishment - it's Southborough's little gem!

I have ticked everything as excellent because it is a home from home.

Current Review Score: 8.3 (8.250)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.3 (8.250) out of 10 for Garland House 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 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.3 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 5.000 for Garland House is calculated as follows: ( (12 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 12 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 3.25 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Garland House 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 20 registered maximum number of service users is 4. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 4 = 0.25

  • 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.
