My aunt lived at Appletree House for about five years, she felt like it was her home because the staff became family to her. The staff loved her and cared for her with great kindness and respect. I felt like they lifted a great weight off my shoulders as I felt confident that my aunt was happy, well-loved
and cared for. I would recommend this care home if you are looking for love and kindness.

What I would call an old school care home. My friend has been a resident getting on for 3 months. I really cannot fault the care she gets. The staff are helpful and friendly but mainly they are kind, which means a great deal to the residents. My friend has settled well and feels loved and cared for
(her words). At this point in her stay, I can't fault it!

My mother is not the easiest person to look after yet the staff have got past this behaviour and bought out the best in her. Not only do they look after her so very well but they always go above and beyond to ensure she is as well as she possibly can be. I haven’t known her to be so happy since my father
passed away. Everything they do is with care and concern for her well-being. I can’t speak too highly of the care and the food is always of a high standard. I am always involved in being included in decisions regarding her health and well-being. It’s a home from home and not clinical and that’s what makes the residents so calm and happy. I would recommend this care home if you want peace of mind that your loved one will be cared for in the best way possible.

Excellent home, my mother has been revitalised since being there. Her health has improved and she now has a different outlook on life. The staff are always in good humour and are eager to please, despite my mother's sometimes 'bolshie' behaviour.

I have found Appletree House to be very welcoming and friendly. My mother has settled in very well. She had to move in suddenly. As her previous care home had to close. She is a much more sociable person and joins in with the activities. The staff are very engaging and helpful.

Current Review Score: 7.6 (7.607)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 7.6 (7.607) out of 10 for Appletree House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.3 out of 5 from 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.4 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 4.250 for Appletree House is calculated as follows: ( (6 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 4.25

  • 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 3.357 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Appletree 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 14 registered maximum number of service users is 2.8. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 2.8 = 0.357

  • 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.
