Not much to say really, it's all praise. The staff, which includes the carers, cleaners, tea ladies, organising all kinds of things for everyone concerned. They've all been fantastic. Everyone has been brilliant, they should be very proud of themselves. They are sincere and professional. God bless them
all.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

Mother has now been at Alexandra Care Home for approximately a year. She has improved immensely - her physical well being couldn't be better given her age and her engagement with staff and other residents complete. This is due to the high level of care shown by the staff who wouldn't treat her any better
if they were her own family. Our thanks go out to the whole staff.

Mum is cared for extremely well. The nursing staff are kind and helpful at all times. They are very patient with mum. They put my mind at rest that she is being cared for at all times.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.514)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.514) out of 10 for Alexandra Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 9 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 4.676 for Alexandra Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (75 Excellents x 5) + (26 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 105 Ratings = 4.676

  • 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 4.838 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Alexandra Care Home is based on 9 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 = 3.9

    • 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 48 registered maximum number of service users is 9.6. 9 Positive Reviews ÷ 9.6 = 0.938

  • 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.
