I was sent to Station House, after a stay in hospital by social services. The staff are very caring and professional and I cannot thank them enough for everything they have done. When I came out of hospital I could not walk but they have been as supportive as possible and I am now able to do so with
the help of a frame.

I was at Station House for only 5 weeks and in that time I found the home very comfortable, plus the staff were excellent, and very friendly and cheerful at all times. I would recommend the home to anyone looking to have family staying there.

I am reviewing Station House on behalf of my late mother who passed away on 13th November 2015, having stayed for three and a half months. During this time mum was treated with care, dignity and respect by kind staff. Nothing was too much trouble. The nursing care mum received was excellent. The doctor
and nurse easily available to visit mum and speak to me. Each day I visited mum at meal times to encourage her to eat. I could see the staff tried their best to keep mum's spirits up, mine too!! Sadly at 93 years mum's life had run it's course. On the positive side I have good memories of mum in Station House and I am grateful and appreciative.

Current Review Score: 8.9 (8.880)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.9 (8.880) out of 10 for Station House 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 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.0 out of 5 from 6 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 4.857 for Station House is calculated as follows: ( (60 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 70 Ratings = 4.857

  • 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 4.023 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Station House is based on 6 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 = 3.6

    • 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 71 registered maximum number of service users is 14.2. 6 Positive Reviews ÷ 14.2 = 0.423

  • 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.

Julie Okhae

Job Title: Home Manager

I’ve been a Home Manager since 2007 and have achieved my Level 4 leadership and management qualification as well as leadership in dementia accredited by Worcester University.


I worked for another large organisation previously, and I liked the structure and support that I received. I felt that Care UK was a perfect fit for me, and I really took on board the Care UK visions and values.


I believe it’s important for a Home Manager to be patient, kind, and have good communication skills. You need to work with the team to provide the best possible care for residents within the home and improve the team’s skills to provide a pathway for progression.


I love spending time with residents, and I feel proud when I see they are happy and well cared for. The most important part of my role is to ensure that residents are safe and well cared for and that the home is maintaining quality in line with CQC regulations.


I enjoy mentoring colleagues and supporting them to succeed in their careers. All the Team Leaders at Station House have progressed from being a carer, and I enjoy seeing them grow and develop. I feel happy when I see that the team is happy and working together as a team.


I also feel proud when the home has positive feedback from residents, relatives and visiting professionals.
