I believe this to be an excellent care home. The staff are kind and patient, and the residents are clean and well dressed and looked after with care. It is always a pleasure to visit and we are made very welcome. There are lots of activities and a dog and two cats, which I think is a very good idea.
I have not visited any rooms, but the communal areas are always clean and the whole place is inviting. I do not know the costs so do not know if it is good value - but I expect so.

My mum was a resident for the last 3months of her life. I was delighted to find such a clean and delightful place. It was like a hotel. All residents washing is done individually. I have continued to visit another resident since my mum died, find it a very pleasant place.

My father lived at Eastlake for nearly three years until his death in August 2016. He was very happy there and always commented on the kindness of the carers. Some carers found time to talk to him about his interests and his past life and he appreciated this. Although he did not usually enjoy group
activities he was pleased when carers played cards or Scrabble with him in his room. There were occasional practical issues that I found hard to resolve, but my father was not aware of this and he certainly had no complaints about the care he received. Whenever he was asked if everything was all right he would say that, yes, everyone was very kind.

An extremely friendly and welcoming establishment. Staff are very approachable and will do anything to help and assist you. Food is excellent and varied, and caters well to elderly people. As my mother is quite active would like more activities for her to do.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.848)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.848) out of 10 for Eastlake 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 21 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 4.848 for Eastlake is calculated as follows: ( (210 Excellents x 5) + (31 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 244 Ratings = 4.848

  • 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 Eastlake is based on 21 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 53 registered maximum number of service users is 10.6, which has been reached with 21 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.
