Thank you for your review, we value all feedback as this helps us to improve our service where required. The Daneside Court Team are very grateful for your kind words that recognise the care your mother receives. The team have worked tirelessly through the recent pandemic, as have other areas of the health sector. We are constantly reviewing our recruitment offer to attract new people to join us so that we can continue to meet the needs of our residents, but also to find time for those special moments which our residents deserve. HC-One, in partnership with the Local Authority, have recently increased rates of pay for our current colleagues that not only recognise the kind care they deliver but also pay enhanced rates to more experienced team members. As an organisation, we continue to raise the profile of our care colleagues within our local communities to gain the respect and appreciation of the work they undertake, and I am pleased to recognise you as an ally in our mission.

Thank you for your review, we value all feedback as this helps us to improve our service where required. We are delighted you enjoyed the event we held in honour of the Queen’s Jubilee. It was wonderful to see everyone having a great time; we work hard to ensure our residents happiness and enjoyment. We are especially pleased that since covid, we are welcoming families again to continue to make memories with their loved ones. We appreciate our garden should be a lovely space for residents and families to enjoy and we have ordered new garden furniture to be used when we hold future occasions. We look forward to welcoming you to our next event.

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.403) out of 10 for Daneside Court Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 12 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 4.465 for Daneside Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (72 Excellents x 5) + (67 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 144 Ratings = 4.465
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 4.938 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Daneside Court Care Home is based on 12 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 64 registered maximum number of service users is 12.8. 12 Positive Reviews ÷ 12.8 = 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.
