The Review Score of 10 (9.950) out of 10 for Potters Grange is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 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 4.950 for Potters Grange is calculated as follows: ( (250 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 262 Ratings = 4.95
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 Potters Grange is based on 22 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 24 registered maximum number of service users is 4.8, which has been reached with 22 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.

Hello, my name is Evan and I am the General Manager of Potters Grange. I am a registered adult nurse and have been working in the Health and Social Care Industry for the last 11 years.
I began my career in nursing in the Philippines as an Adult General Nurse before moving to the UK.

I enjoy supporting people and supporting my team, to ensure that the service we provide is to the highest standard
I am very excited to lead the Potters Grange team and together we will deliver our care ethos by providing a non-judgemental, non-biased, person centred care to all residents.

Job Title: Head Housekeeper

I have worked in housekeeping for around six and half years and enjoy it very much, as I love to be around people.
Job Title: Chef
Joined: 2021
At a young age I have always had a keen interest in cooking and used to bake every weekend with my father, so from an early age I knew that I wanted to be a Chef.
At 15 I enrolled in culinary school and completed my NVQ Level 2 in Professional Cookery and ABC Level 2 in Patisserie. A year later I started my career in hospitality as a Pastry Chef, working in a 2 AA Rosette Restaurant Here I would help with developing new and unique recipes to feature on the menu, as well as prepare desserts for weddings and other events for up to 400 covers.
At the age of 18 I moved into care as a Deputy Chef Manager, here I learned quickly and made my way up to Head Chef in under a year. I developed menus for the Home and for the Day Centre, incorporating the dietary requirements of all residents and customers, into daily meals. This meant working a lot with the IDDSI (International Dysphagia Diet Standardisation Initiative) scale for modified foods and thickened liquids, as well as fortifying foods for those needing to increase or maintain their weight.
“For me it’s really important to learn the likes and dislikes of my residents and incorporating this into the IDDSI framework, to not only make sure our food tastes nice, but to also look appetising!”
As a Chef, I always want to learn new things, so I decided to take the plunge back into hospitality as a Sous Chef, so I could widen my experience. I stayed for 2 years gaining more experience, when I saw the advert for a Head Chef at Potters Grange, a role I instinctively know was perfect for me.
Here at Potters Grange, I am blessed with a state-of-the-art brand new and well-equipped kitchen. As a team at Potters Grange, we really focus on a person-centred approach.
“This for me personally this is a privilege, as it enables me to build a relationship with each resident, centered on food. In my time here at Potters Grange I feel we have gained a real sense of family and our good meals prepared from fresh local produce is at the heart of it.”
As Potters Grange is home to a maximum of 20 people, this family like understanding makes it a lot easier to meet every individual’s needs and requirements, which means residents not only get the meals they like, but they are cooked just the way they like it as well!
