Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

Excellent service from start to finish, nothing was too much trouble. Friendly one to one care, providing everything a dying person who couldn't do anything for herself needed. If a visitor needed a drink, it was provided free of charge, without question. Highly recommended, by friends and family alike,
without question.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

My mother is very happy living at Eton Park. Giving up her independence has not been easy for her, but she very much enjoys the programme of activities which is provided for the residents. During my visits, I have been particularly impressed with the air of tranquillity and sense of calm within the
care home. I find the care staff to be very professional, caring, patient and dedicated to those in their care. Everyone, including the cleaners, kitchen staff, laundry staff, handy man are very friendly and approachable and they create a warm, friendly and welcoming atmosphere.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.305)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.305) out of 10 for Church Farm at Rusticus 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 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 13 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 4.606 for Church Farm at Rusticus is calculated as follows: ( (120 Excellents x 5) + (20 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) + (7 Poors x 2) + (2 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 155 Ratings = 4.606

  • 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 4.699 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Church Farm at Rusticus is based on 13 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 93 registered maximum number of service users is 18.6. 13 Positive Reviews ÷ 18.6 = 0.699

  • 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.
