Thank you very much for your review. The team work so hard to ensure that residents are well cared for, the current situation makes life far more complicated, but with kindness and consideration, the team always find a way to ensure being without family members is more bearable for our residents. Your thanks will do much to give the team a real 'boost' during these difficult times. Kind regards

We pass our condolences to both you and your family, as we did when we were told of your father's passing by the primary contact for your family. However, I would contest your comments. Firstly, we are not in a position to only show 'positive feedback' on this site, or any other. Reviews are rejected only when they are proved to be non-compliant with their review policy. The decision to show reviews is not in our gift.
To put your mind at rest I would suggest that you request to see the communication between the home manager, the staff team and the person in your family who was the primary contact with the home. You will also see the respect the home had for your father and how they cared for him.
With regard to the lack of face masks worn by staff, I would comment that this would be highly unusual and should you wish to take issue with this please feel free to write to the home manager with full details, so that the Complaints process can be instigated.

We do of course send our condolences to you and your family at this sad time and would never wish to detract from your own feelings, however, there are many points within your comments which we would contest. The family member who acted as the primary contact for your family has expressed thanks for the care of your Grandfather and our condolences were passed to her and your family when she advised us of your Grandfather's passing. At this time the home manager was on annual leave but as she had given her personal phone number, she was able to keep in contact. In fact, she was able to obtain information for the family when the ward became uncontactable. Please ask to see that communication as it will put your mind at ease on those points. We do have a Complaints process to express your concerns, should you wish to do so.
Lastly, we have the utmost respect for all of our residents, more so those residents who have been in our care for a long period of time.

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.893) out of 10 for Church View Nursing & Residential Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 45 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 45 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 4.893 for Church View Nursing & Residential Home is calculated as follows: ( (471 Excellents x 5) + (52 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 525 Ratings = 4.893
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 Church View Nursing & Residential Home is based on 45 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 45 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.
