I moved to Cae Deri on 18th November 2018 and left in late 2023, living there for nearly five years. I find it odd that reviews are only being requested now that I've left. Cae Deri used to ask for service users' opinions during staff supervision, but after I provided honest negative feedback, residents'
opinions were no longer solicited. Now that I've left, you're asking for reviews, which feels suspicious. I felt unheard at Cae Deri and still do. There was some improvement when the new manager arrived. She decorated the house in colours I selected, which made me feel like I had a voice, unlike the previous manager. Before the new manager, I was left naked in my room, ridiculed by staff, ignored at the table, and treated with sarcasm. Many staff members befriend service users after they leave Cae Deri but avoided me. These same staff members have also avoided adding me on social media. My main concern isn't about social media, but about how poorly they treated me compared to others.

Reply from Tracy Heaven, Regional Manager at Cae Deri

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. I am sorry to hear that you do not feel you had a positive experience at Cae Deri in the earlier years of your placement. Although I am happy to read that you felt recognised and included by the new manager currently in place, and hope that she made a positive difference to your overall experience. We appreciate all feedback, and wish you the very best for the future.

Due to Covid restrictions, I was unable to visit the care home prior to my mother's admission. My decision to select this care home was done by reading inspection reports online and telephone conversations with the matron. I have received regular updates on Mums condition. Mum always looks clean and
well-groomed in photos on Facebook, and on the occasion, I have seen her, Mum looks happy and has gained weight, which she needed to do. Staff seem caring, and Mum appears to have settled in. Covid restrictions have been adhered to well.

Current Review Score: 8.7 (8.725)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.7 (8.725) out of 10 for Cae Deri is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.4 out of 5 from 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.4 out of 5 from 4 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 4.350 for Cae Deri is calculated as follows: ( (45 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (4 Poors x 2) + (4 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 60 Ratings = 4.35

  • 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 4.375 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Cae Deri is based on 4 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 = 3.375

    • 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 14 registered maximum number of service users is 2.8, which has been reached with 4 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.
