My mother has been looked after so well by the amazing staff, and the owners, since she arrived three years ago. She has thrived at Ridge House with their fantastic care, and fantastic food, which she always comments on!

This is a small home, very well staffed and the genuine love and care given to the residents is wonderful. My Mother is very happy there and praises the food and carers. Ridge House is very well managed and the manager and owners do everything they can, to make it a real home for their residents.

Family run, 14 residents. Staff are friendly and always cheerful. Food is prepared on-site from locally sourced ingredients, and my mother says it's very good. Rooms are clean and comfortable, and there are beautiful views over the Devon countryside. We visited a dozen local homes when we were looking
for somewhere two years ago, and this was far and away the best we saw.

At a very difficult time for all concerned it was with a huge sense of relief when we paid Ridge House two visits whilst searching for a suitable home for my mother. The care and attention the manager and owners paid to both us and my mother were second to none. The home is beautifully calm and set
in gorgeous surroundings. The rooms were so light and clean and welcoming as were the staff we met and the residents. I cannot fault it and know my mother will settle in very well indeed. I am extremely grateful to the manager and her team for their dedication and professionalism.

Current Review Score: 7.2 (7.246)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 7.2 (7.246) out of 10 for Ridge House Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 3.9 out of 5 from 2 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 3.913 for Ridge House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (12 Excellents x 5) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 23 Ratings = 3.913

  • 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 3.333 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Ridge House 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 15 registered maximum number of service users is 3. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 3 = 0.333

  • 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.
