The Elms is a homely, comfortable house in a lovely location. All visitors are made to feel welcome. The residents are treated at all times with respect and consideration. They are clean and have a good regime. Not rushed at all. The meals are good. The bedrooms are comfy and neat. My mum lived here
for 3 years before her recent death. She was happy and I feel she had the best care available to her.

Mum's first experience of The Elms was in respite (2011/2012) and then as a resident from 2013 until her demise in September this year (2018). We found lots of love, care and attention from the start, the tenderness and consideration Mum was given was exemplary, her room was clean and the food was excellent,
we ate there so can say from experience, we also found it to be very nutritious. The carers always went the extra mile and were considerate to both resident and relative alike, they gave lots of support through some difficult times. Overall I would like to say a big thank you.

My mother has been in The Elms for nearly 4 years. The care she has received has been very good. It is a very friendly home and the staff are very caring and helpful.
The food has attained 5 stars and is especially good.
I would recommend The Elms and have had good feedback from visiting friends and
relatives.
They have been glad to get their loved ones into The Elms.

Found The Elms short staffed most of the time. Food poor for the price they charge. My mother's morning drinks were still on the table at lunch as she needed assistance. Overall, try as you may if short staffed you can only do the best with what you have. Would not recommend The Elms if it is a care
home you need there is not a lot of that.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.758)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.758) out of 10 for The Elms 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 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 10 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 4.758 for The Elms is calculated as follows: ( (107 Excellents x 5) + (18 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 132 Ratings = 4.758

  • 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 Elms is based on 10 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 37 registered maximum number of service users is 7.4, which has been reached with 10 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.
