I just met a member of The Fountains on the 9th February 2019 and was in Fountains on 11th February for the first time but the room (my husband's) was extremely clean. I liked the laminated floor instead of carpet (more hygienic). The furniture was in good condition. The decoration is very beautiful.
The nurse was concerned about very important points (e.g. Security, medication with labels). I was asked to help to fill in a very intense form where food, incontinence cloths, mobility etc all was included.

I have found the care of my mother to be very good. The staff have been very attentive to my mother and our family when visiting.
My only concern has been on the one occasion, my family and I tried to contact the home one evening, for a progress report on my mum's welfare and the request for her to
receive a doctors visit. We were unable to get anyone to answer the phones after 8 attempts by myself and 8 from my sister. This necessitated me to visit the home at 10 o'clock in the evening.

My mother has been a resident of The Fountains Care Centre for almost 7 years.
The care has been good and we have been grateful for the care she has been given.
Thank you.

The Fountains provide good care to my father. My father is looked after with care and consideration to his needs. The staff are friendly and treat my father with respect. The facility is kept clean and provides a comfortable environment for the patients. My father seems settled at The Fountains Care
Centre.

Each time I have visited The Fountains I have been impressed by the friendliness of the staff, combined with the degree of care and kindness shown to my aunt. She is bed-ridden and extremely frail, and, from what I have observed, she is treated with dignity and respect and given excellent nursing care.
She feels she has made friends among the staff and is very content to spend the remainder of her days in their care.

My aunt has dementia and the level of care is appalling. At least one fall has gone unrecorded, and no care plan was put in place after the fall. The reports the care home create are full of conflicting information and social services have advised we move our aunt to another home as she is not receiving
the level of care she deserves. My aunt has been left without clean clothes for just over a week, no one at the home can tell us why. The room she is staying in isn't always clean and sometimes there are not even sheets on the bed. The rooms are very nice when they're clean.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.786)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.786) out of 10 for The Fountains Care Centre 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 25 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 25 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 4.786 for The Fountains Care Centre is calculated as follows: ( (240 Excellents x 5) + (47 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 295 Ratings = 4.786

  • 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 Fountains Care Centre is based on 25 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 64 registered maximum number of service users is 12.8, which has been reached with 25 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.
