My mother has been a resident since August 2015 and we have been previously very unhappy. Management has changed and over the last few months improved but there is still a lot of improvement required. The rooms are small as said in a previous review, when we arrived our room was in a terrible state,
we painted it for our mum in the colours she wanted but the general maintenance of the building is poor, 'maintenance man' is not good. The room was very dirty, blue tac and holes in the wall from the previous occupant, dull and dingy. Her bedding was ripped! We cried that's how upset we all were, including my mum! Decor is tired.
Mum's clothes often go missing and are often shrunk. The food isn't good, no sugar/salt in food and the cuts of meat are cheap, fatty and hard for them to eat. Soup is not palatable and cake is tasteless. Needs improvement.
The staff, in general, are helpful and friendly. The entertainment is excellent and the entertainments coordinator does a fantastic job.

My mother does appear to be very happy and well cared for. The only unsatisfactory element is the rooms which for a long stay person are extremely small and basic. I would expect better lighting, in my mother's case, she cannot even see out of the window as the bed is in front of it, better seating
areas in the room and generally more space.

Under new management, standards have been raised including the opportunity to discuss care standards during planned meetings. My mother (and late father) have been here for 4 years and seem happy in their care.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.302)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.302) out of 10 for The Hornchurch Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.3 out of 5 from 27 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 4.302 for The Hornchurch Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (168 Excellents x 5) + (97 Goods x 4) + (20 Satisfactorys x 3) + (4 Poors x 2) + (16 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 305 Ratings = 4.302

  • 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 Hornchurch Care Home 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 55 registered maximum number of service users is 11, 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.
