I have visited Church View 5 times in the last 12 or so weeks and from my first visit through to my fifth have found the care home staff really friendly, open and caring. My friend is not my father but if he was I would be happy that he is there. I visit another two friends who are in the care home
environment and I can honestly say out of the three homes I visit this appears to be number one. As you can see by the ratings I have put satisfactory for value for money as to the cost of my friend's care.

I attended Church View for respite care following a full hip replacement. Care, food, and support were excellent. I enjoyed my stay for nearly one month. July - August 2024.
I am back home and live on my own. I feel the staff all communicate well therefore care at Church View is very good.

The staff are very helpful and caring. The rooms are clean and well looked after and Mam says the bed is very comfortable. The food is sometimes hit or miss for my mother but the staff ensure she does eat.

My husband has been here for five months. He has a nice room, in which he is comfortable, especially his bed. He likes the food, and the staff are very nice to him. I wish there was more interaction between him and the staff. The staff are so busy, there's not much they can do to help pass the time
away for him. They are always on the move and never have time to chat much with the residents, which is quite sad. They are always short-staffed, which is wrong for the staff and residents.

The staff are very friendly and attentive and have looked after Mum well. Mum has particularly enjoyed the daily activities, she has knitted for the first time in many years.
Mum has enjoyed the meals, especially not having to cook, and even better not wash up.
The rooms not having an individual W.C.
is a slight downside, but more than offset by the positives.

My Mother is very happy at Church View, we were very concerned about Mum managing in her flat. We couldn't be happier now she is here and safely cared for. Mum is happy the majority of the time. She suffers from depression and staff always manage to treasure her and work through things.

Grandma is extremely happy at Church View. There is always so much for her to do. Groups, singers, and children from local schools. Myself and my children are always made to feel so welcome. We can have dinner with Grandma and it is a pleasure to come here. The majority of staff are extremely supportive
and are happy to make time and make us feel welcome.

My mum joined Churchview in March after a traumatic few months in hospital. Despite the Covid restrictions staff made every effort to ensure she settled in well and allowed us to visit when restrictions allowed. They were professional and extremely caring. Whenever I speak to them it is obvious how
much they care about the residents. She seems to really enjoy being part of the regular activities despite her Alzheimer's and I am so pleased that she has settled in and is happy and well looked after.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.575)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.575) out of 10 for Church View 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 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 14 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 4.575 for Church View Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (104 Excellents x 5) + (55 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 167 Ratings = 4.575

  • 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 Church View Care Home is based on 14 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 45 registered maximum number of service users is 9, which has been reached with 14 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.
