My husband has been attending daycare at Bankview for 2 years now and I have nothing but praise for all staff and the excellent care he receives. I appreciate everything they do and I don't know how I could cope without their support and understanding.

My husband has attended Bankview Day Care Centre since May 2023 and during that time, members of staff have gotten to understand his needs and what he can and cannot do. Initially, he did not want to go but now he has got used to going and engaging in all activities and chatting to fellow service users.

My husband loves the day centre, he feels at home there and safe.
He enjoys the games and the company, also the food.
So it's all good and am happy for my husband to be one of the gang.

I have always found the members of staff friendly to me and kind to my wife. The day care centre is always spotless and the staff are efficient and attentive at all times. My wife enjoys the company of staff and other clients and is always brighter on her return home. The meals seem to be excellent
and well-balanced. All in all, I feel happy about my wife attending this centre.

The first time I took my mother to Bankview, I was given a tour of the rooms. My words were - "it's like a hotel".

My father always looks forward to his days at Bankview Cay Care Centre. He is well looked after and treated with compassion and dignity.
He loves the meals and the socialising with people his own age. The staff are all really friendly and helpful and treat my father with care and dignity. They are
also caring and friendly to our family.

Happy that my mother gets a bath while visiting Bankview Day Care Centre as she can't use the shower at home because it is upstairs. She always comes home in a happy mood.

Friendly staff on minibus collecting dad, making him at ease when leaving the house.
Allows him some stimulation, mixing with others and bit of banter with the staff.
Well looked after whilst there.

My dad has been treated with respect from the moment he became a resident. All care staff and nurses have been great in caring for my dad's needs. Nothing is ever a problem. The manager and office staff are very approachable and always eager to help. I'm glad to have chosen Bankview.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.800)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.800) out of 10 for Bankview Day Care Centre 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 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 5 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Adult Day Care Centre 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 4.800 for Bankview Day Care Centre is calculated as follows: ( (45 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 55 Ratings = 4.8

  • 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').

    5 points are available for the first 5 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months: 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.5 Points for each of the next 4 Positive Reviews. (1st = 3, 2nd = 0.5, 3rd = 0.5, 4th = 0.5, 5th = 0.5)

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Bankview Day Care Centre is based on 5 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.5 = 5

  • 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 Adult Day Care Centre does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
