My dad was transferred from hospital to Chelfham House. Although his dementia isolated him, the home ensured he was included and not just left in his room. Dad took a sudden turn for the worse and the staff really stepped up. I could not have asked for better care. All members of staff, from the top
to the cleaners, were friendly and helpful. Their communication with family was excellent. The food was very good and alternate meals were offered to ensure Dad would eat. The home was clean and had a bright happy decor.

My mother passed away recently at Chelfham House Residential Care Home. I moved Mum to Chelfham in 2017 to be near me. The staff were great; they loved Mum, and Mum equally loved them. The care was great - nothing was a problem. And when Mum was in end-of-life care...everyone was wonderful, respectful,
and soo caring. I can't thank the team enough.

Reply from Wendy Plant, Manager at Chelfham House Residential Care Home

This review means a great deal to myself and my team. We work hard to keep standards high and train staff to put the resident at the centre of their care. We care for people as individuals and the staff care for people as they would their own families. I feel very privileged to get to meet, know and care for each resident and know the staff feel the same. We have an amazing team here.

Current Review Score: 8.1 (8.122)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.1 (8.122) out of 10 for Chelfham House Residential 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 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.1 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 Chelfham House Residential Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (10 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 10 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 3.122 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Chelfham House Residential Care Home 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 41 registered maximum number of service users is 8.2. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 8.2 = 0.122

  • 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.
