Thank you for your valuable feedback. We're delighted to hear that you're so happy with the care and support your dad receives, and we appreciate your suggestions regarding the laundry. We've actually been promoting a new tagging system which we'd love you to try, where tiny name tags are attached to items. Lots of our relatives have been using it and have been very positive about its benefits when we've discussed this at our residents' and relatives' meetings. If you'd like to discuss this further, please don't hesitate to reach out to the home manager, her door is always open.

Thank you for your review and your comments about the exemplary care provided by our team at Lake View. While personal care is extremely important, occasionally a resident may refuse certain aspects of this, and we must respect their wishes. I can assure you our staffing ratios have always been correct and that our team adopt a whole-home approach when it comes to providing engaging and stimulating person-centred activities for our residents to enjoy.

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.753) out of 10 for Lake View Residential Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 38 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 37 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 4.753 for Lake View Residential Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (362 Excellents x 5) + (65 Goods x 4) + (20 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 449 Ratings = 4.753
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 Lake View Residential Care Home is based on 37 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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, which has been reached with 37 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.
