The Review Score of 9.8 (9.849) out of 10 for Barchester Beaufort Grange 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 52 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 52 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 4.849 for Barchester Beaufort Grange is calculated as follows: ( (529 Excellents x 5) + (83 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 617 Ratings = 4.849
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 Barchester Beaufort Grange is based on 52 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 74 registered maximum number of service users is 14.8, which has been reached with 52 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: Nurse
Joined: 2023
Hello, I'm Peter. I've been a nurse for over 14 years. I'm a registered nurse with certification in public health and occupational health nursing.
Right from childhood, I've been so fascinated with caring for the human body. This fascination led me to study nursing, and through that, I developed compassion for human care and the art of nursing generally.
Prior to my move to the United Kingdom, I worked in different departments of hospitals in southern Nigeria. I worked as an occupational health Nurse in different field locations such as seismic, offshore, and oil rigs.
My background in public health and occupational health nursing, which is geared towards disease prevention, work safety, accidents, and incident management at the workplace, helps my performance as a nurse in this Beaufort Grange care home.
Personally, nursing affords me the opportunity to touch human lives, and doing this gives me so much satisfaction.
