Many thanks Napaporn, I have passed your concerns to AR. She will contact you to discuss, please always do speak to the team when you are in the home with any worries or questions, they can then show you the charts to ease any worries. It's always a worry when our loved ones take to their beds due to a decline in health, it can take a second to adjust to them getting less active than they used to be. I have had a quick look at his records and his drinking quantity is an appropriate amount each day and its recorded. He has a jug in his room each day for the carers to assist him with. Are you bringing in different drinks he likes that we do not have in the home? Maybe a different taste is what he likes. We are always happy to buy other products if you think he likes something different, please do let us know.

The staff are mostly good at interpreting what she needs and wants. She seems to enjoy interactions with the staff but does not entirely understand why they are there and what they do. It's difficult to know exactly how she is with the staff, when we are there, the dynamic will change of course. I don't think we could have found anywhere better than the old coach house to meet my mother's needs.
I have no overt concerns about my mother's welfare.

Many thanks for the review and the lovely comments about our staff team, we think they are amazing too.
Bit confused about the final comment as I'm always around and speak to everyone I come across in the home, maybe there is a miscommunication about who the owners are? I will catch up with you when I see you.

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.593) out of 10 for The Olde Coach House 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 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.
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 4.593 for The Olde Coach House is calculated as follows: ( (189 Excellents x 5) + (71 Goods x 4) + (17 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 280 Ratings = 4.593
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 The Olde Coach 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 41 registered maximum number of service users is 8.2, 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.
