The staff are always welcoming, attentive and helpful. Their level of care and attention to the residents is excellent and they take time to get to know each and every one of them and their needs. No request is too much and they are always happy to assist in any requests for information or help we require.
We have always enjoyed our visits for the last four years and the strong working relationship we feel have formed. A lovely atmosphere always.

My Mum has settled well and I'm confident this is down to the staff and their commitment to give as best care possible. My Mum talks highly of not only the staff but also the range of activities on offer and joins in lots of enjoyable time with other residents.

We visit every month for 2 to 3 hours. We find our sister-in-law very happy and settled in Victoria House. The care staff are caring and polite to everyone. The home looks clean and tidy, plus there seem to be many activities for the residents ie exercise classes, silent discos and singers who perform
every so often and craft sessions are well-liked by my sister-in-law.

The support and help my aunty has received has been amazing. She arrived not too good for wear. After only a short while she looks so well and well looked after. I no longer worry about her to the extent I did. The staff are there at all times, and in my experience they are friendly. They have been
there to discuss my aunty.

Reply from Eduard Lavelle, Manager at Victoria House Care Home

Victoria House is a loving, friendly home with care at its heart. There are plenty of activities for the residents if they wish to join in.The staff care not just for the residents but also their families. I have yet to meet an unfriendly staff member. The rooms are kept clean and tidy and the meals
are good. I wish I could move in!

Mum moved into Victoria House after a bad fall at home and failing health, unfortunately we were just going into lockdown so couldn't see her face to face for a while but had regular video calls with her with the support or staff. She was treated with respect and when her health deteriorated even further
and she was put on end of life care, we made the decision for her to be cared for in Victoria House instead of going into hospital. We were kept informed about her needs at all time and could visit at any time of day or night. She sadly passed away in February with her family by her side. My mum and all the family were treated with the utmost respect at this very difficult time and the staff were amazing. I would not hesitate to recommend Victoria House to friends and family.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.574)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.574) out of 10 for Victoria House Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 28 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 26 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 4.574 for Victoria House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (233 Excellents x 5) + (79 Goods x 4) + (16 Satisfactorys x 3) + (8 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 336 Ratings = 4.574

  • 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 Victoria House Care Home is based on 26 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 43 registered maximum number of service users is 8.6, which has been reached with 26 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.
