What a lovely review, thank you so much for taking the time to leave this. We genuinely loved working alongside your mother in law, she was an absolute pleasure to have in the home. She is missed by the staff team and her absence in the home is noted. We were honoured to be able to be with her when she needed us most. So many thanks to you all.

What lovely kind words, all residents mean so much to us but your father-in-law, in particular, holds special value to me being the first person I assessed when I started. He is a wonderful man and the relationship he has with all members of his family is a joy to see. It's a genuine pleasure to support him in life and to see him still take so much from it. So glad and such an honour to play a part in his life here at Corrina Lodge. Thank you again.

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.688) out of 10 for Barchester Corrina Lodge Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 54 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 52 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 4.688 for Barchester Corrina Lodge Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (485 Excellents x 5) + (116 Goods x 4) + (19 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Poors x 2) + (7 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 632 Ratings = 4.688
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 Barchester Corrina Lodge Care Home is based on 52 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 58 registered maximum number of service users is 11.6, which has been reached with 52 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.
