Reply from Donna Bailey, Regional Support Manager at Puddingstone Grange
We appreciate your feedback. However, we must respectfully disagree with certain comments regarding the level of care provided to the resident and the events in question. Puddingstone Grange noted a pre-existing pressure sore when the resident was admitted to the home. A referral and photograph were sent without delay to the District Nurse Team who then attended daily to dress the wound from the 28/11/23 to 15/12/23. We note that no previous complaints had been raised by relatives in relation to our resident whilst he was in our care. Puddingstone Grange currently has a rating of 9.8/10. There have been 5 reviews on Carehome.co.uk to date in 2024, all of which have been rated 5 *. We pride ourselves in delivering consistently high standards and are disappointed that the facts have been misrepresented in the above review.

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.577) out of 10 for Puddingstone Grange is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 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 4.577 for Puddingstone Grange is calculated as follows: ( (164 Excellents x 5) + (47 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) + (7 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 227 Ratings = 4.577
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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Puddingstone Grange is based on 19 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 62 registered maximum number of service users is 12.4, which has been reached with 19 Positive reviews. Points = 1
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.
