I am writing on behalf of my husband who has recently been in your care home for respite. I and my husband found all of the staff to be friendly and very helpful, they made him welcome, made sure he had a very comfortable seat in front of the telly, brought him in his paper every day as he can't get
around on his own. TV and his paper for crossword are very important to him, also a member of staff took him out in his wheelchair and told him about the history of the local town. My husband also enjoyed the food very much, especially the home baking. He asked me to book him another week in October as he enjoyed his stay so much. Thank you so much to all the staff for looking after my husband so well, you all deserve five stars, in my husband's words, he was treated like a lord.

My mother has now been a resident for a year and can honestly say, we, as a family are extremely happy with the care she is receiving.
She is always clean and dressed well, her hair is tidy on the days she has agreed to have it done. Being a dementia sufferer, 'not today' means 'not today'. There is
regular entertainment for residents and fun days where the family are made very welcome.
The home itself may not be of today's standards being built in the 70s, but it is warm with friendly staff and management.

Current Review Score: 8.1 (8.060)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.1 (8.060) out of 10 for Durnhythe is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.1 out of 5 from 1 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 4.917 for Durnhythe is calculated as follows: ( (11 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 4.917

  • 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 3.143 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Durnhythe is based on 1 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 = 3

    • 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 35 registered maximum number of service users is 7. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 7 = 0.143

  • 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.
