Having known her for a considerable time and am well accustomed to her needs, likes, dislikes, etc. Over the past year or two, she has suffered poor health and spells in the general hospital, which has to address her needs and well-being.
Her stay at Cambridge Grove is and has been most beneficial
due to the standard of care, management and excellent facilities.
As a concerned onlooker, it is most reassuring to know that such a facility exists, and I will recommend it to others.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

"Brilliant!" said my very tall husband when I asked him, "How was your stay at Cambridge Grove Care Home," (just 4 miles from the nearby city). This was his first ever experience of respite care - a 2 week stay. He was very well cared for throughout. The food at the home was excellent and the activities
too. As a musician, he enjoyed playing the piano there for the other residents, and it helped maintain his own church organ playing skills. The facilities are lovely, and the views across to the local hospital are stunning.
The personal care by the clinical staff was excellent, especially by one member of staff in particular who was attentive, professional and friendly. It was certainly the right thing, in the right place at the right time for us. We are grateful.
My husband made new friends amongst the other residents and the staff are fond of him too. He will certainly be back for another stay soon! Thank you everyone at Cambridge Grove, we really liked what you did there!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.874)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.874) out of 10 for Cambridge Grove Care Home 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 63 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 63 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 4.874 for Cambridge Grove Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (662 Excellents x 5) + (76 Goods x 4) + (9 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 747 Ratings = 4.874

  • 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 Cambridge Grove Care Home is based on 63 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 72 registered maximum number of service users is 14.4, which has been reached with 63 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.
