Thank you for sharing your views of our home; we value all feedback and use it to influence future changes and improvements to the service we provide to enhance the experience of our residents. Our dining room and communal areas have recently undergone a full refurbishment to improve facilities for residents and fixtures have been sourced in line with resident choice. We have specialist equipment and crockery available to meet the individual needs of people who have difficulties associated with sight, dementia and dexterity. Moving into a residential care setting and the change of environment can be unsettling for some people and at Holbrook Hall, we offer a trial period, during which time we work hard to build trusting relationships with individuals and continually monitor and assess their needs to ensure that the placement is suitable for all parties involved. Unfortunately, on this occasion, management was unable to be present due to an unexpected situation.

Thank you for such lovely feedback which has been shared with our loyal staff and management team. Holbrook Hall is a Grade 2 listed building containing 35 fine individual bedrooms, the majority with en-suite facilities or wet rooms with superb views across the adjacent gardens and beautiful countryside. We strive to care for our residents in a manner that embraces 'Good Care Practice' and will endeavour to achieve a standard of excellence in all aspects of our service. The rooms are spread over two floors and are easily accessible by either stairs, stair lift or vertical lift. They are all tastefully decorated and furnished, with an accent on quality, comfort and relaxation. Holbrook Hall provides an extremely relaxed and comfortable environment. In addition to a spacious dining area, we have two large traditional sitting areas. When not relaxing our residents thoroughly enjoy and make comments about the superb freshly prepared food produced by our chefs. Warm regards.

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.753) out of 10 for Holbrook Hall 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 31 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 30 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.
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 4.753 for Holbrook Hall is calculated as follows: ( (282 Excellents x 5) + (71 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 360 Ratings = 4.753
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 Holbrook Hall is based on 30 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 36 registered maximum number of service users is 7.2, which has been reached with 30 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.
