Reply from Kay Mcilwee, Manager at Western Mount Lodge
Dear Reviewer
Thank you for your feedback. At Western Mount Lodge, we take all comments seriously and are committed to delivering the highest standards of care. However, we were both shocked and disappointed by the content of your review, as it does not align with the reality of the interactions we had with your family during the resident's stay.
1. No Prior Concerns: At no point during the resident's time with us did your family raise any concerns or complaints regarding the care provided. If there had been issues, we would have addressed them immediately, as we always do.
2. Positive Feedback: On several occasions, your family expressed gratitude for the care provided. We were regularly reassured by your positive comments during visits, which greatly encouraged our staff.
3. When the decision was made to transfer the resident to another care home to be closer to his wife, it was an emotional moment for everyone. The resident was visibly upset, and our manager offered comfort and support during this difficult time. We also recall the resident's daughter-in-law warmly thanking our manager for the care provided during his stay.
Given these facts, your review does not reflect our experiences, and frankly, we find it misleading. If you would like to discuss this further, we are open to a direct and constructive conversation.
Sincerely,
Kay Mcilwee
Manager

The Review Score of 8.1 (8.126) out of 10 for Western Mount Lodge is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.0 out of 5 from 4 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.1 out of 5 from 3 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 4.043 for Western Mount Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (31 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) + (7 Poors x 2) + (5 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 46 Ratings = 4.043
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 4.083 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Western Mount Lodge is based on 3 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 = 3.25
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 18 registered maximum number of service users is 3.6. 3 Positive Reviews ÷ 3.6 = 0.833
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.
