Thank you so much for leaving your review and taking your time to pass on lovely feedback to our amazing staff team. It was a pleasure to be a part of your mum's life and to have yourself and your siblings support in providing care to mum. Thank you also for allowing us to be a part of your mum's final journey. Mum will always be at the heart of the fountains and a fond character to be missed along with great memories shared. I will ensure your feedback is fed back to our staff team, which I am sure they will be extremely honoured to receive.

Thank you for your review, we value all comments like this is a positive way to focus on improvements.
We do understand how you would be feeling regarding the admission of your father, especially as it was a first visit to an environment such as this. We recognise that your anxieties, sensitivities, and emotions would have been highlighted – in turn causing a stressful situation.
You were asked to wait in the foyer which had just been decorated, to include new lighting.
Your welcome, we understand due to miscommunication, supported a lengthy wait which, gave you time to observe the sideboard donated to the home by a much-loved resident who has passed away. It is as you say ‘tired and does have a handle missing’, We believe that the sideboard is individual and has character, as do all of our residents who we care for.
We have focused this year on refurbishment and progress is being made flooring is being replaced throughout the home, along with redecoration, and replacement of furniture.

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.609) out of 10 for The Fountains Care Centre 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 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 4.609 for The Fountains Care Centre is calculated as follows: ( (115 Excellents x 5) + (66 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 184 Ratings = 4.609
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 Fountains Care Centre is based on 16 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 45 registered maximum number of service users is 9, which has been reached with 16 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.
