Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.689) out of 10 for The Glen 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 25 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 4.689 for The Glen Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (215 Excellents x 5) + (71 Goods x 4) + (9 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 296 Ratings = 4.689

  • 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 Glen 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 52 registered maximum number of service users is 10.4, 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.

Terri-Ann Weatherall

Job Title: Home Manager

Joined: 2002

I am a highly experienced and motivated healthcare professional with a proven track record of providing excellent care and support. I started working at The Glen Care Home in 1999 as a care assistant and have worked my way up to a Home Manager through various roles within the home.


We have a fantastic team here at The Glen and for us, it's ensuring our residents are happy and cared for with the utmost respect and dignity they deserve. I use my knowledge of the local area to arrange events and activities with nearby schools and clubs and am always keen to involve the local community in life at The Glen.


There’s no better feeling than making a difference to a resident's life.

Maya Lawrence

Job Title: Head of Care

Joined: 2006

I am a dedicated and talented registered nurse with suitable qualifications, skills and a plethora of experience to be deputy manager for The Glen Care Home. During the 16 years at The Glen, with the last years as Head of Care, I have acquired far-reaching knowledge of care standards and health & safety legislation and have gained extensive experience in working with vulnerable adults and people with special needs including mental and physical disabilities.


I can effectively lead, train, supervise and motivate a team to deliver the utmost care and professionalism to all our residents and their families consistently. High standards of care are achieved through placement assessments and risk assessments for residents, formulating individual care plans and ensuring that these are met by the team.


We always prioritise our residents’ needs and will always, with our fabulous team, make sure that their time spent with The Glen is relaxing, peaceful and joyous.
