The Review Score of 9.3 (9.287) out of 10 for Amberley Lodge Care Home (Nursing) 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 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 6 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 4.687 for Amberley Lodge Care Home (Nursing) is calculated as follows: ( (51 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 67 Ratings = 4.687
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 4.6 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Amberley Lodge Care Home (Nursing) is based on 6 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 = 3.6
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 17 registered maximum number of service users is 3.4, which has been reached with 6 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.

Debbie joined Amberley Lodge in 2018 after working for the NHS in Dementia Services. She has worked with Amberley Lodge in her NHS capacity and has helped mould the new way of working with increased activities which are meaningful to our residents and working with the care staff in becoming more person centred and seeing the resident as a person with a wealth of experience and not a diagnosis.
Debbie is a Registered Mental Health Nurse and has worked within dementia services for over 25 years. Her last position was with the NHS, Dementia Care Home in Reach Team as a Specialist Dementia in Reach Nurse, which involved educating staff within care and nursing homes about dementia and working with staff to promote person-centred care and the importance of good communication. Another aspect of her role was to make recommendations to create a dementia friendly environment. She also has a good understanding of the needs of residents with complex issues relating to their dementia.
