The Review Score of 9.2 (9.238) out of 10 for Amberley Court Care Home 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 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 9 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 4.612 for Amberley Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (79 Excellents x 5) + (29 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 116 Ratings = 4.612
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 4.626 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Amberley Court Care Home is based on 9 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 = 3.9
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 62 registered maximum number of service users is 12.4. 9 Positive Reviews ÷ 12.4 = 0.726
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: Clinical Deputy Manager
Joined: 2020
I was born in Romania in the capital of Transylvania on the 1st of July 1990. I have double nationality: Romanian and Hungarian. Since I was a little girl, I wanted to be a nurse. In 2014 I finished nursing school - I have Bachelor's degree in General Nursing. I came to the UK in 2016 with a contract to work as a surgical nurse. I met my husband who supported me and advised me to try to work in Nursing Homes.
Since 2017, I worked in Nursing Homes, in Surrey, where I built up my confidence and my knowledge. In October 2018 I gave birth to my amazing daughter, and I was off for 6 months. In June 2020 I joined Bupa – worked as an RGN from the beginning until Nov 2020 when my previous GM suggested applying for the CSM role. In April 2022 we moved to Birmingham from Camberley with my family and I transferred to Amberley Court, where I am present and still adapting and learning about the residents and staff. I enjoy working with people and keeping myself active and up to date with new protocols and procedures.
Job Title: Senior Activity Co-ordinator
Joined: 2017
I am the Senior Activity Co-ordinator and Engagement Champion at Amberley Court. I enjoy making a difference to the lives of our residents - I build friendships and I like to encourage our residents to try new things.
I studied sociology at university and I worked part-time at a community day centre. I enjoyed the role and when I saw the role for an Activity Co-ordinator at Amberley Court I thought it would be perfect for me whilst I continued studying. I ended up staying as I built good relationships with our residents and the team and they've become my second family.
Working in the care sector is hard but it is so rewarding. Seeing a smile on a resident's face is the best feeling in the world.
I'm currently working towards my NVQ Level 3 Lead Adult Worker - Activity Co-ordinator qualification. I'm the eldest of 5 children and I love to travel. I have a fear of heights but love the adrenaline rush of going on rides at theme parks. I am a huge film fan and enjoy reading and socialising.
Job Title: Activity Coordinator
Joined: 2013
I have worked at Amberley Court since 2013, starting as a receptionist. I have progressed to be part of the activities team. I really enjoy interacting with the residents and co-ordinating all our fun and engaging activities. Such as arts and crafts, cooking club, bingo, board games, card games, and organising entertainers. One of my favourite parts of my role is simply having a cuppa with our residents and chatting away, learning all about one another and sharing stories.
Job Title: Maintenance
Joined: 2015
I have worked at Amberley Court since 2015. My career began as a part-time gardener, with the intention of becoming full-time maintenance.
I have been full-time maintenance since 2016, assisting other maintenance operatives. With the great support of our home manager, I have been promoted to The Head of the Department of Maintenance in 2022. I look forward to continuing to progress in my career at Amberley Court.
