The Review Score of 9.8 (9.766) out of 10 for Speirs House 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 29 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 28 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.
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 4.766 for Speirs House is calculated as follows: ( (266 Excellents x 5) + (64 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 337 Ratings = 4.766
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 Speirs House is based on 28 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 36 registered maximum number of service users is 7.2, which has been reached with 28 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.

Job Title: Interim Home Manager
Joined: 2022
Hello everyone. I am Feruna O'Donovan and I am an Interim Home Manager for Speirs House.
Our Speirs House philosophy can be summed up in our efforts to do all we can to have happy residents, happy staff, and happy relatives. Key would be a therapeutic environment, a well-developed, innovative team, opportunities for fun and meaningful activities, and opportunities to grow and extend oneself no matter our age!
Our responsibility as caregivers is to facilitate, to make ourselves available, and to be creative. We need to be up to date with our training and thinking and need to be able to network with other Carers in our community.
Nursing the Elderly is a specialist field, and skilled and confident nursing staff are essential, particularly in the age where care is becoming community-based. The benefits of investing in Nursing (and other) staff become very apparent to residents, relatives, other staff, and the community.
Job Title: Family Liaison Manager
