My aunt has been in the nursing home for several years. Although some selected staff are carrying out great care, others are very questionable. There has been multiple issues with quality of care actually been given in the home. My aunt has had her belongings taken almost every day, staff have always
blamed laundry service. Everything we have taken for my aunt to keep in her room has gone missing, even down to her undergarments.
I have made several complaints but all that gets said is 'we will check with laundry'.
We have labelled the clothing with permanent ink, clothing labels and markers. Yet all her clothes have gone missing.
We go to visit her and she is always in someone else's clothes and shoes. Staff are told and their attitude is 'I don't know check with manager', ask manager and she always replies with 'it's a problem with laundry'. Ongoing issue for three years and no solution has been found. It's very sad to see her identity being lost whilst she has been there.

Since my mother-in-law has been here, I have been extremely grateful and happy for the kindness, attention and support they have given to her. The management and staff have been superb. My mother-in-law looks so well looked after and happy. We are extremely happy she is in a care home like this and
we do not feel any anxiety at all. We genuinely want to thank everyone who looks after my mother-in-law and we thank god every day.

I have been totally pleased with everything Meera House Care Home have done for my mother who was there for a period of 6 weeks. She was struggling with her mobility and her food intake. The staff were patient with her and gradually got her back on her feet and eating well to the point where she has
been able to come home.
I found both the care home manager and her staff very approachable, understanding of my mum's situation and willing to provide me with any information I requested. I would have no hesitation in recommending Meera to family and friends who may need this type of service for their loved ones.

Reply from Alana Corr, Home Manager at Meera House

Take care,
Alana

Unfortunately, due to the COVID pandemic, we have not able to visit my mum properly for nearly a year so I cannot comment on the current condition of the care home. However, we have been always allowed window visits and FaceTime appointments regularly.
I must thank and give credit to the management
team and the entire staff for managing through this pandemic. It may be helpful to all to have monthly or periodic update on the care home status (how things are going during a pandemic). Would like to suggest to improve their outdoor sitting areas in the garden for Summer 2021.
Ratings are selected on pre-pandemic status. Hopefully once the pandemic finishes all the stimulating activities will be introduced again.

Reply from Alana Corr, Home Manager at Meera House

Thank you for your kind words, we are delighted to have been able to support some form of connection with our residents and their families through these difficult times. We look forward to seeing you soon.

Having contacted several nursing homes in the local area on New Year's Day for providing temporary respite care, we found Meera House to be proactive in their engagement with us, and more importantly for our mother, aged 79. Moving into a nursing home was not a decision the family had taken lightly.
Meera immediately provided us with answers to our many questions, which placed us at ease as we had never experienced dealing with any nursing home for respite care. We were reassured and hopeful that the respite care will help our mother recover. We admitted our mother the very next day on Saturday 2nd January where the admissions process was seamless to say, and was managed very well by the managers in charge. After four weeks of respite care, our mother has now returned back home refreshed and having a greater level of mobility than previously. Thanks to Meera House for the care, attention and rehabilitation provided.

Current Review Score: 2.5 (2.500)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 2.5 (2.500) out of 10 for Meera House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 2.5 out of 5 from 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 0.0 out of 5 from 0 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 2.500 for Meera House is calculated as follows: ( (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 10 Ratings = 2.5

  • 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 0 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Meera House is based on 0 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) =

    • 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 59 registered maximum number of service users is 11.8. 0 Positive Reviews ÷ 11.8 = 0

  • 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.
