My dad has been a resident at Belvoir Vale for over 18 months. He has complex care needs and can be quite a challenge at times. The staff at Belvoir Vale have supported not only my dad but the whole family through this difficult period. My dads care has been exemplary and I can not fault it at any point
during his time at this care home. He has now needed to move to a nursing home as his needs have increased and I miss visiting Belvoir Vale enormously. I would thoroughly recommend this care home on the experience I have had there.

Greatly relieved the home could take my parents at short notice. Always greeted by smiling, friendly staff who appear to enjoy their work. The staff call the doctor(GP) when necessary. We understand there will be an increase on fees from April, but have not personally been informed of this, we have
power of attorney.

We are pleased to see the number of agency staff has reduced as this provides continuity of care and promotes trust between staff and residents who struggle to remember names and faces. The staff are caring and treat mum with respect. The trips our are a welcome distraction though not easy to manage.
Perhaps more could be made of the day rooms and the garden could made more accessible in the warmer months. The safety in the park has been improved by erecting a gate and fence which is a positive move.

Excellent care for my father and strong support and advice for myself at a very difficult time. Unfortunately accounts handling does not come close to this standard of service.

I have nothing but praise for this home. It is a 'home' not an institution. the staff are all caring, helpful and friendly, nothing is too much trouble and always a great support to both my sister and myself, not just the carers all the staff, cleaners, office staff and not to be forgotten the activities
manager and workmen, ably led by the manager, who is always available. The buildings are well kept and comfortable giving a homely atmosphere and the gardens are delightful. I cannot recommend this home more highly.

My mother has now been a resident for 2 1/2 years. The individual care she is given remains superb. The staff continue to show her the concern and support she needs and make her life as much of a pleasure as is possible.

I had a brother in Belvoir Vale for ten years and a sister twice in for 1 year and then 2 years, and my husband (who was terminally ill) for 2 weeks, all now deceased. I found the staff very caring in all ways, even beyond the calling of duty. Not only caring for patients but their relatives and well
which I found most comforting.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.794)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.794) out of 10 for Belvoir Vale 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 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 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 4.794 for Belvoir Vale is calculated as follows: ( (124 Excellents x 5) + (30 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 155 Ratings = 4.794

  • 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 Belvoir Vale is based on 13 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 62 registered maximum number of service users is 12.4, which has been reached with 13 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.
