My mother settled into Avebury House two months ago and I cannot fault the care and attention she has been given both physically and emotionally. I have peace of mind knowing that she is in safe hands.

Moving into residential care is a large transition both for a service user and their family. Without exception, every single person has been kind, helpful, and professional in supporting us with mum's removal. It's the things that money cannot buy, like attitude, genuine care, and compassion that mean
we are so happy that mum is with you, safe and sound.

Extremely impressed with everything to do with Avebury House. The care and kindness shown to my sister are remarkable. Everyone is so kind and helpful, nothing is too much trouble and always with a smile. The food is jummy. The lounge and dining room is like home from home, and we love the decor - nice
and modern, furniture and curtains very pretty.

The home is beautifully set internally and externally with polite, helpful happy staff. They were attentive to the needs of myself and my friend whilst I visited, extremely professional yet warm in their approach. The manager, who was polite, friendly and professional, offered a tour of the facilities.
All areas match the main areas on view. A beautiful setting with exceptional staffing from the manager down. I will enjoy my revisits.

Dad resided in Avebury House briefly in December 2020 and then again for 13 days following a stroke at the end of his life. Care was amazing, he needed nothing - they gave all. And also to family in the last few days. Thank you.

Reply from Geraldine Smith, Director at Avebury House

Thank you for your kind words. Hearing from someone who lives and experiences life at Westley Court, is a testament to the dedication, care and attention given by the Manager and all staff at the home. I am sure that anyone having to make the decision to place a loved one into a care service will feel confident and comforted by your comments at what continues to be a difficult period in the care sector.

I had a fall in January and, following a spell in hospital, went to a nursing home in Westbury. I came to Avebury House just over two weeks ago as it is close to friends and family. So far, I have been delighted with the overall care and attention I have received from everyone here. Nothing seems to
be too much trouble and everyone treats me with kindness and respect.

We, as a family, knew Mother wasn't going to get any better and that her life journey would end at Avebury House. We couldn't have wished for a better place to end her long life. The kindness and dignity she was shown was wonderful. Everything was done to make her last few days as comfortable as possible.
My brother, sister-in-law and I were included in all decision making and felt the warmth and care of a truly dedicated manager and all staff. Thank you so much.

Reply from Sue Houldey, Operations Director at Avebury House

We were so sorry to have lost your mother after such a short time with us. Thank you for your kind words about the care and support received. I will ensure the staff are made aware of your appreciative remarks.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.398)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.398) out of 10 for Avebury House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 8 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 4.622 for Avebury House is calculated as follows: ( (63 Excellents x 5) + (20 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 90 Ratings = 4.622

  • 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 4.776 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Avebury House is based on 8 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 = 3.8

    • 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 41 registered maximum number of service users is 8.2. 8 Positive Reviews ÷ 8.2 = 0.976

  • 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.
