The Review Score of 9.6 (9.584) out of 10 for Newton House Care Home 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 30 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 29 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 4.584 for Newton House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (230 Excellents x 5) + (106 Goods x 4) + (18 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 356 Ratings = 4.584
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 Newton House Care Home is based on 29 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 113 registered maximum number of service users is 22.6, which has been reached with 29 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.

Job Title: Customer Relations Manager
Joined: 2024
Having joined the team at Newton House in Spring 2024, Thomas brings a wealth of knowledge in care and customer experience to his role. He grew up close to Glasgow and recently returned after 20 years of living and working in the South East of England. As your first port of call, you can rely on Thomas for support and logistical help as you embark on the journey of finding the right care. Providing support and an exceptional level of service is high on Thomas’ list of priorities, along with making time to get to know new residents and their loved ones. Outside of work, Thomas enjoys dog walks in the countryside and spending time with his family and friends, though the majority of his spare time is spent looking after his three horses, who have also relocated to Scotland with him.
“It’s a privilege to support individuals and their families on their care home journey, and doing so at Newton House is incredibly rewarding. My focus is on providing guidance and reassurance every step of the way, from the very first enquiry to ensuring a warm and seamless welcome into our wonderful home.”
Job Title: Wellbeing & Lifestyle Coach
Joined: 2023
My name is Kerry-Anne and I am the Wellbeing & Lifestyle Coach at Newton House Care Home. My role involves providing well-being support for our residents & staff, in addition to organizing events and activities, for all to attend, especially our residents to make their stay at Newton House fulfilling, stimulating, and enjoyable. My previous experience includes working in brain injury rehabilitation and supporting victims of crime with Victim Support Scotland, while obtaining my Psychology Degree. I am an avid true crime lover and enjoy watching documentaries and listening to podcasts in my free time.
Job Title: Business Administrator
Joined: 2024
My name is Amanda, and I am the Business Administrator at Newton House Care Home. My role involves managing finances, including payroll and fees for the care home, as well as offering support to our relatives and team members. I have worked in the care sector for over 11 years and during that time, have worked to achieve an Honours and Master’s degrees in Psychology. I started as a care assistant and an activities coordinator before moving on to administration, which I feel has helped me to develop a deep understanding of working in care, as well as a firsthand understanding of the daily challenges and rewards of caring for others. I am a bit of a geek and love to continuously learn. My biggest hobby is reading, I read a lot in my spare time, and I always have a book with me everywhere I go. I am married and we recently eloped to Australia to get married in the woods. We have three daughters, who I enjoy spending time with, and try to value time with my family. I also enjoy going on walks with our beautiful chocolate labrador, Coco, although she likes to get covered in mud.
