The Review Score of 8.6 (8.568) out of 10 for Limewood 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 4 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.7 out of 5 from 4 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 4.854 for Limewood is calculated as follows: ( (43 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 48 Ratings = 4.854
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 3.714 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Limewood is based on 4 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 = 3.375
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 59 registered maximum number of service users is 11.8. 4 Positive Reviews ÷ 11.8 = 0.339
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.

Manager, Claire has dedicated her entire life to care. She joined Limewood Care Home when it opened in 2014 and has been part of the team ever since. Claire’s enduring enthusiasm and unwavering passion for providing care are palpable throughout the home. Her positive energy serves as the catalyst for cultivating a warm, welcoming, and affectionate community. Claire says
“The most important part of delivering care is understanding that a one-size-fits-all approach won’t work and that each person needs to be at the heart of their own care plan. Everyone doesn’t fit into a box, and this is a core understanding here at Limewood. I treat everyone like they are a family member – if you think, would this be right and the best for my mum or dad and the answer is yes, then you know you are doing the right thing.”
