The care and support my relative has had since January has been fantastic. Her health has improved beyond anything we thought possible a few months ago. Also, she is happy and settled. All the staff are lovely and Howdon has a lovely atmosphere, always very welcoming and ready to share a joke.

Find the care home very clean and very welcoming. Keeping me informed by telephone saying how Mum's doing. Getting cards from Mam is a very nice touch too.

My stepfather has had amazing care during his time here. He is much stronger and happier than when he arrives. Staff have been so supportive of the family.

My thoughts on my own experience visiting Four Seasons that the reception staff and care staff are all caring and polite and very pleasant. They all put you at your ease and very helpful. The building is lovely and clean, bright and airy.

My Mam has been at Howdon Care Centre nearly a year now and is happy there. I am very happy too that she is being looked after by the wonderful staff. In the last year due to the Pandemic I have been unable to visit since March 2020, I live in Greater Manchester.

Fantastic staff and a lovely home, great atmosphere. The food was lovely. The staff worked really hard to get me back home. Can not thank the staff enough for everything they are doing, especially during the Covid pandemic.

Thank you so much to all of the staff for providing such high-quality care to my mum during her stay at Howdon. I couldn't have asked for better care through such difficult times. It was really hard when we couldn't see her but the staff went out of their way to make sure that we could have regular
video calls with her so we were reassured she was alright. Thank you once again - you are all doing an amazing job.

My experience of this home has been over the last 3 and half years and I have always spoken highly of the staff and the care they provide, but this last 9 months has proven even more that my mam couldn't have a better home. The dedication, care and love the staff have given through this year has been
outstanding. Faced with such an exhausting time they've shown their dedication and love for the residents and cared for and loved them when relatives needed to depend on them so much. I couldn't recommend Howdon anymore highly.

My mother is well looked after and safe. While she may have reduced capacity, she regards the care home as her home. She thinks very highly of the staff. She eats well and is 'cared' for and not just 'looked after'.

Mam has been there for 5 years now; the standard of care is excellent. The staff are professional and sympathetic to their resident's needs. I am informed immediately if there are any issues with Mam, which myself and family appreciate. Wouldn’t have Mam anywhere else.

My stay at this care home was excellent in every aspect. The staff, cleanliness, food, medical care and physio were excellent, from a good exchange to laughter I was impressed and thank you all.

My mother came here from the hospital on an end-of-life document. From the moment she arrived, the staff were lovely, caring and so helpful. Could not fault the care my mother has received whilst here!
Well done to all the staff. My mother became well enough to return home.
Thank you.

Current Review Score: 8.9 (8.861)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.9 (8.861) out of 10 for Eastside Gardens 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 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.4 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 4.461 for Eastside Gardens is calculated as follows: ( (80 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (9 Poors x 2) + (2 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 115 Ratings = 4.461

  • 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 4.4 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Eastside Gardens 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 90 registered maximum number of service users is 18. 9 Positive Reviews ÷ 18 = 0.5

  • 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.
