My son has received very good support on a 1:1 basis whilst living at Sycamore House. I would like him to be encouraged to be more independent in terms of getting his own drinks from the kitchen and being more involved in doing "shop, cook and eat" as he is more than capable of doing this with support,
but overall I find it an excellent place to live.

Felt assured that the resident is receiving suitable care. She has been here for 3 months and we needed assurance of care and activities.

This setting is homely, organised and clean.
The carers are friendly and communicate well with my mum, dad and me. They do lots of activities with my sister and even weekends at the seaside. The residents are also nice people to be around for my sister. Happy with the care she is getting.

My daughter has been very content and settled since she moved in. The staff have been very supportive and creative in their activities for her.
She has a lot of interests and the care team are always looking for new and interesting activities for her. This has not been easy as many college activities
only go up to age 25 and she is older. However, they continue to seek out new ideas and experiences for her and continue to support her existing interests.

I have been pleased that my daughter has settled in well at Sycamore House as it offers a high level of care and support.
I would however like more information on her medication programme and the desired outcome of it along with observed progress.

Current Review Score: 9.1 (9.125)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.1 (9.125) out of 10 for Sycamore House 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 2 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.1 out of 5 from 2 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 5.000 for Sycamore House is calculated as follows: ( (23 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 23 Ratings = 5

  • 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 4.125 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Sycamore House is based on 2 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 = 3.125

    • 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 5 registered maximum number of service users is 1, which has been reached with 2 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.
