Thank you so much for your lovely review of Stones Place. I am so pleased that we were able to offer a respite stay for your father; he really has been an absolute pleasure to have with us, and I look forward to him returning to stay with us in the future. I am so pleased that you have used the app; it really is a wonderful way to keep in touch with families and friends, and the team at Stones Place love to see them and discuss them with the residents. Chaplaincy is such an important part of Stones Plac,e and this, along with our values, is reflected in the way that we work and live in the home.

Thank you for your lovely review of our home. I am so pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us, and we look forward to seeing you again when you come and stay in November. I have noticed that activities may not have been all that you would have liked them to be. I will be happy to discuss this with you when I see you next, and we can organise something that you would like to take part in.

Thank you for your kind review. I am so happy that we were able to help at what has been a difficult and challenging time. Although you have not been able to see the whole home due to COVID-19 restrictions, I appreciate you taking the time to write such lovely things about us. Your father is a sociable chap who has made some new friends and joining in with the activities. He’s keeping us on our toes with his quick wit too.

Thank you for this very kind review. Your mother was and always will be a very important part of the Stones Place “family”; she was an absolute joy to be around and is sadly missed by us all. She pops up in conversation most days and her sheep is on guard at the front door. Here at Stones Place, we strive to instil the MHA values in all that we do and when I receive reviews like this it shows me that we are getting it right. We look forward to a catch up with you when we are able to open our doors again.

Thank you for your review; it really is very kind that you took the time to complete this. Your father really was a lovely gentleman and an absolute pleasure to care for. Please come and see us when we are able to accept visitors back into the home and hopefully give you the hugs that we were not able to give you when needed them most. With love from us all at Stones Place.

Thank you for your review, I am so pleased that you are happy with moving your Uncle from a previous care home to Stones Place. He is very settled in his new room and is a pleasure to care for. We look forward to seeing you when we are able to welcome visitors back into the home.

Thank you for taking the time to submit a review for Stones Place. I am so pleased that we were able to get your mother the emergency treatment that she needed. It’s lovely to have her back in the home and I hope that her recovery continues. It is always lovely to read that others sense the community feel of Stones Place as it really is something that we take pride in and I think that it reflects our values that we all live and work to.

Thank you so much for your kind response. As a home, we really do strive to create a homely and caring atmosphere and I am so happy to see that this is felt by you when you visit. All staff that work at Stones Place work to MHA Values and I think that this is reflected in the quality of the care that is given and the way that it is tailored to the individual’s needs. Your Dad is a very welcome addition to the home and has settled in with ease; he’s an absolute pleasure to be around.

Thank you for your kind review; it is so good to hear that you have felt supported by the team at Stones Place, through what was a difficult time and that the outcome of some difficult conversations was a positive one.
Here at Stones Place, we live by the MHA values and I think that this was reflected in the open and honest conversations that we have had when discussing the care needs of your mother and whether Stones Place was the appropriate place for her needs to be met. It was an absolute pleasure to have your mother stay with us for the short time that she was with us and I wish you both all the very best in the future.
Please do pop in and see us if you are in the area.

Thank you for such a lovely review, it is so nice to know that you feel happy and confident that your mother is safe and well looked after. Stones Place staff work to the Values of MHA and I believe that this is reflected in the way that our residents are cared for. We are making progress with the gardens and will have a sensory garden with seating for the residents later on in the year which we are really very excited about. As fortunate that you feel that you found Stones Place, we also feel fortunate that yourself and your mother chose us to be her home.

Thank you for taking the time to review Stones Place. It is always nice to have feedback from our visitors when they have been to the home, and especially nice to receive such lovely compliments from someone that has been visiting the home for several years. The care team really are very dedicated to the residents and understand the value of person-centred care which reflects in the way that the people that live at Stones Place are looked after. Visitors are able to have their meals at Stones Place, so if in the future you would like to try some of our lovely food for yourself please speak with a member of the team and we will be happy to organise this for you.

Thank you for your very kind comments about Stones Place and the wonderful team that work here. I am so pleased that you find the dining room experience here so relaxed and enjoyable; I think that the ambiance in the dining room during mealtimes is so important as a nice atmosphere promotes conversations and friendships. I think that the care staff changing into their ”whites” gives that extra touch and can make it feel more like dining out. We like to encourage family and friends to have a meal with their loved ones as we appreciate that it is not always possible to be able to take them out and this is the next best thing. We also have a small lounge with a dining table that can be set up so that families can have a more personal dining experience should they wish to.

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.910) out of 10 for Stones Place is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 14 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 4.910 for Stones Place is calculated as follows: ( (152 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 166 Ratings = 4.91
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 Stones Place is based on 14 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 42 registered maximum number of service users is 8.4, which has been reached with 14 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.
