My husband went into Daisy Nook House originally for respite, when I went into hospital. It then went on to be permanent residential care, from the very first time we went to the home, the manager and senior staff and all the care workers have been fantastic. It was a very emotional time but both my
husband and myself have had wonderful care and support throughout the time my husband has been there. There has only been a few concerns which have been dealt with quickly and sensitively. My husband is very happy there, which has helped me immensely.

My grandmother has been a resident of this care home for a few years now. I could not ask for a better place for her to live. She is so well looked after, the staff are lovely, she feels safe and thinks of it as home. I can not recommend this care home highly enough. I can have complete peace of mind
knowing she is happy, comfortable and safe.

Dad has only been a resident for one week. However he seems to have settled in well due to the friendliness and caring attitude of the manageress and her staff. Everybody seems to be well looked after and there is always a member of staff in attendance.

So far i am very pleased with the way my son is being cared for. There will always be one or two ups and downs but any problems have been satisfactorily dealt with as quickly as possible and this is why at the moment I am giving an "excellent" report. My son has only been in Daisy Nook House for a few
months but I have been fortunate to have one or two dinners with him and can say with confidence that these were excellent.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.920)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.920) out of 10 for Daisy Nook House 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 24 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 24 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 4.920 for Daisy Nook House is calculated as follows: ( (264 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 286 Ratings = 4.92

  • 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 Daisy Nook House is based on 24 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 40 registered maximum number of service users is 8, which has been reached with 24 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.
