Thank you for such a positive review! I am happy to hear that you are relaxing, knowing Mum is safe and loved. It is always a joyous occasion when we celebrate a birthday, especially a 90th, so we do love to make a fuss. Kind regards.

Thank you so much for your review. Mum was a delight to have stay with us and it was bittersweet to wave her goodbye, as she had become such a big part of the home in the short time she was with us. We are all so happy that she was able to return home and that she is back to her former self. Kind regards.

Thank you for your review. I am so happy to hear that your wife is now settled and happy, that is all we strove to achieve but unfortunatley due to the nature of her Alzheimers this was not possible with us. The home is not the same without her here or without you visiting each week for your Sunday lunch. We wish you both all the best for the future. Kind regards

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.457) out of 10 for Riverside Court is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 15 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.
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 4.457 for Riverside Court is calculated as follows: ( (127 Excellents x 5) + (26 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (11 Poors x 2) + (7 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 175 Ratings = 4.457
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 Riverside Court 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 25 registered maximum number of service users is 5, 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.
