My granny has dementia and fell, she was put in this care home for some rehabilitation and to heal. The care was abysmal, we encountered staff eating the food from residents plates before giving it to them, they sent my granny in an ambulance without knowing where she was going and we had to drive around
hospitals to find her, they would undress and dress her in the day room in front of people, the room she was in barely felt habitable and when we moved her from their care they didn't record it properly and phoned us a day later saying that she was ready to be moved to the new home, she had already been out of their care for at least 12 hours and so this was a blatant lie and showed they had went at least 12 hours without checking on her well being or even seeing her. I would say that the service she recieved here could not be considered "care" as the home had no idea of her whereabouts at least twice and they also lied about this. I would not want anyone else to go through this.

My mother stayed here to recouperate and heal after a stay in hospital, this placement was offered by social services. My mum was not cared for as she should have been, her hygiene was neglected, we witnessed a member of staff eat food from her plate before giving it to her and she suffered a fall and
was not taken to hospital even though she was on blood thinners.
I witnessed my mum become very quiet and lose confidence in herself and as soon as we could we removed her to another care home. I will never forgive myself for allowing her to be placed here.

Wonderful care from dedicated and professional staff. Nothing was too much trouble. They looked after my brother who was there for two weeks respite care and I cannot sing their praises highly enough.

The staff look after my mother very well. They try to keep her occupied and interactive to the best of their ability. They always immediately inform me of any issues. My mother's room is always clean and tidy.

Current Review Score: 5.8 (5.815)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 5.8 (5.815) out of 10 for Larne Care Centre is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 2.8 out of 5 from 3 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.1 out of 5 from 1 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 2.758 for Larne Care Centre is calculated as follows: ( (12 Excellents x 5) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) + (15 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 33 Ratings = 2.758

  • 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 3.057 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Larne Care Centre is based on 1 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 = 3

    • 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 87 registered maximum number of service users is 17.4. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 17.4 = 0.057

  • 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.
