Overall Experience  Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5

Mom was left alone most of the time in her room and not encouraged enough to go downstairs and mix. Her mental state and physical well-being deteriorated in the 6 weeks of being at Madeleine House. Her COVID jab was not given until the day before she left as the doctor is only part-time and neither
was her B12, which is most important. This was totally unacceptable as in that time she developed sores under her bust and top of legs through not being examined by the doctor or carers properly. Medication should have been given to correct these. The staff were very friendly, but in my opinion, did not go that extra mile in looking after someone who was vulnerable after spending 5 weeks in hospital. This has instantly been rectified at her new care home.

Mum was only in Madeleine House a short time; her many needs were met with care and attention. Due to Covid, we were unable to visit, but the staff kept us fully informed of her condition, and we could contact them any time.

I was in a mental hospital for 8 months and learned that I wouldn't be discharged back to my council flat if they thought it unsuitable. I was amazed when asked what kind of place would I like for living. I said somewhere as much like this (the hospital) as possible. At Madeleine, they clean rooms,
change beds and provide good food, when I had failed at all three before. The staff is usually friendly and the management staff are wonderfully understanding and have time to talk and I am glad of the resident's company when I can manage it and it is warm. God bless you all.

So far we have no complaints. Everyone is really helpful and cheerful and can't do enough. My mother has only just entered the home but seems to be settling in OK. She is looking a lot better than she has done for a long time.

Visited this home on 26th October to get my uncle assessed. Very impressed with home and staff. Took my uncle to home on 20th November where again was very satisfied with the way he was accepted and made welcome. As I live 3 hours drive away I cannot get to visit very often but telephone on a regular
basis where I find staff very helpful.

From what I saw on my first visit to Madeleine House to visit my uncle the staff were extremely helpful and friendly which was reassuring. I was there for three hours so cannot comment on all aspects below, however, I was impressed by what I saw.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5

My mother has been at Madeleine House for 16 months.
She has Dementia and is physically frail.
Over time she has lost the ability to walk and the home have adapted to this without problem.
She has also become doubly incontinent and the home manages this effectively.
Mum has also had to revert to
soft foods due to swallowing risks and the home have introduced this with care.
A parent going into residential care is always difficult and Mum misses being at home and does not really understand where she is now, but the staff of the home have been caring and supportive.
I have never had the feeling that she is not well cared for.
Her clothes are changed every day and the laundry woman is marvellous!
It is always clean when I visit.
When our relatives are in a home we leave a lot to trust, because we are not there most of the time.
I generally feel reassured that Mum is well cared for and I do not worry about the mistreatment we read of at some homes.
I have found management to be responsive to any issues that I have raised with them.

My gran has only been here a month and wasn't too sure how she would settle due to just leaving another home (on respite) having had an unpleasant experience.
We are all happy to see that she has settled in great and seems very happy and upbeat each time we visit. Staff are always polite and welcoming
and gran can't praise them enough.

One month ago, my mom entered Madeleine House as a very lonely, nervous, fragile 89-year-old who had not long lost her husband of 66 years. Within the next month, mom has become relaxed, happy and very confident in herself. The home has provided exactly the kind of care mom required. Mom has been treated
with great respect, kindness, patience and now calls Madeleine House home. I cannot thank the staff enough from the management to the cleaners, everyone is so caring. Thank you all so much.

I have a good relationship with carers. I find it difficult to keep up with the change of supervisory staff and show concern about decent carers leaving the home to work elsewhere. Some of the carers are excellent and I tend to take advantage of their willingness to help.
Brilliant handyman on site.

Reply from Keri Martin, Home Manager at Madeleine House

Thank you for your feedback on Madeleine House and we are pleased you regard our carers as excellent. We have an ongoing programme to ensure we retain staff and they are trained to provide the highest quality care.

This home had a new manager in June 2017, she has improved several issues, still a little way to go (it takes time). We have issues with food, in our opinion needs to be improved - it's tasteless and do not think burgers on a dry bun, no onions, relish ok plus hot dogs on a roll again no onions, relish
etc not what people of this age require. Needs to be looked at! (Lots of issues). How is this of nutritious value?

Reply from Charmah Gauntlett, District Manager at Madeleine House

Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback regarding Madeleine House. We are committed to providing food that is freshly cooked and of a high standard at each meal service which is varied to ensure good nutritional value. We are currently improving the experience for all residents by recruiting a Deputy Chef Manager and ensuring that all kitchen staff are trained to a high standard. We are devising the spring/summer menus, of which residents will be a part of, to ensure that they are been supported and encouraged in the decisions that take place in the home. Resident participation will include some tasting sessions whereby residents are encouraged to sample some foods and then make choices of what they would like to be added to the menu, with management oversight to ensure this is a varied and well balanced.

Very pleased overall with the facilities and the care provided. I have peace of mind that my elderly mother who suffers from Dementia is safe and secure, well fed and looked after. She is clean, fresh and even has her hair done by a hairdresser on a weekly basis.
The staff are very caring and treat
mum with respect and dignity, but are friendly and approachable.
The home has a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.
No real complaints at all.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.827)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.827) out of 10 for Madeleine House 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 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 17 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 4.827 for Madeleine House is calculated as follows: ( (167 Excellents x 5) + (27 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 197 Ratings = 4.827

  • 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 Madeleine House is based on 17 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 41 registered maximum number of service users is 8.2, which has been reached with 17 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.
