The Review Score of 10 (9.956) out of 10 for Abington Park View Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 4.956 for Abington Park View Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (239 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 250 Ratings = 4.956
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 Abington Park View Care Home is based on 21 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 29 registered maximum number of service users is 5.8, which has been reached with 21 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.

Everyday, we strive to ensure APV is a place where our residents experience Joy and Happiness and a place where we strive to continuously, enhance, lives. We are told often what a lovely ‘feel’ the Home has and how consistent the staff team is, mostly, the team have been together for a number of years, which says much about the APV ‘family’ particularly in the current climate.

Job Title: Wellbeing Coordinator
Joined: 2021
My name is Lisa, and I am the wellbeing co-ordinator at Abington Park View. My role is to enhance resident’s wellbeing by providing both one to one and group activities catered to everyone’s individual needs. This may be an activity surrounding previous occupations, hobbies, interests or to support with emotional needs by providing companionship and reassurance. Where possible I arrange for visits outside of the home and make great use of the superb locality to Abington Park. During the restrictions of covid my role has become integral to supporting residents who were unable to be visited by their relatives or access the community and proved how vital activities and social interactions are for anyone’s emotional wellbeing.
