Mon Choisy Care Home have been brilliant! They take great care of my father, they make sure he's looked after, fed and most importantly make him feel part of the family. He used to love music so they make sure there's plenty of music and activities to help keep him happy. Thank you to all of the staff!
It's a wonderful job you do while at times I'm sure is difficult! They always have a smile and seem to really care for the residents.

My mum has lived at Mon Choisy for 4 years and I am very happy and feel grateful for all the care and support she receives. I would like to thank everyone at Mon Choisy for all the kindness and care they give my mum and the lovely events they organise for different times of the year. So special they
are, and how much my mum does especially when she first arrived. I am so grateful I know that my mum is safe and well, I am happy too. I would highly recommend this care home.

My mother has been at Mon Choisy for almost three years. I am very happy that she is there as I feel she is well looked after and safe. The staff always looks after her even when she has a difficult period. I am notified of her state of health and when I communicate with them by email or phone they
come back promptly trying to find solutions. The place is clean and spacious. I am also very happy that when I cannot visit I can talk and see my mother over WhatApp. I am particularly impressed with the staff who are friendly and welcoming.

My mother-in-law is a resident of Mon Choisy Care Home for almost a year now. At first, it was really hard for us and her as well to be separated, but due to our work and her health issues, it was the best decision we could make. The staff is fully qualified and more than happy to help whenever the
residents needs it. My mother-in-law is really happy as she is treated very well, she says she's feeling like she's on holiday all the time and she is always busy with all the activities they are doing. Food is also really tasty and as a bonus we are always updated on my mother-in-law's situation. I would definitely recommend it!

Review from Alison C (Wife of Resident) published on 21 December 2020

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

My husband has been a resident at Mon Choisy for three and a half years, so my review relates to all of this period. Until Covid-19 stopped relatives visiting, I was at Mon Choisy every week, so I got to know the staff and had a good impression of the atmosphere.
I think the premises of Mon Choisy
are a bit crowded for the number of people, on the other hand, every resident has their own room. All the rooms seem freshly and pleasantly decorated (this was done in the last year or so). At least residents can't feel isolated or lonely because there is always company, which seems important. The staff arrange activities such as painting or games.
The meals are very good and freshly cooked. The food is traditional, with choices every day, and I know my husband enjoys it.
The staff are well-qualified, professional and experienced in understanding dementia and how it affects people's behaviour. Above all, they are kind and caring towards residents. I know my husband is very well looked after.

My father stayed at Mon Choisy Care Home for respite care and I cannot praise the staff highly enough. They were caring, kind, patient and friendly. They did everything they could to welcome him and ensure he settled in. They were also very thoughtful to us as a family and did make things for us as
easy as possible. We experienced them treating other residents with such dignity and warmth (although they were unaware that we were within earshot).

I wanted to praise the staff and facilities at this care home, nothing is too much trouble. My mother is not the easiest of persons to get on with, but she says all the people and staff are kind and polite to her. There is always a friendly smile from all the staff whenever I visit and I can see that
they chat and do many activities with the residents. My mum's room is very clean and well kept and she enjoys living in the home. I would totally recommend this care home.

Mon Choisy, still above and beyond the meaning of the words “Care” and “Home”


I live in the U.S. My sister visits my brother twice weekly. I ‘phone and email. My daughter ‘phones and emails. I was in U.K. last year, and finally met Mon Choisy exceptional Manager and excellent staff when I visited

daily.


I use Skype for family. Staff in Mon Choisy use a laptop and took it into brother to Skype. My brother was delighted seeing me, having the 3 of us in the room. The U.K. is 8 hours ahead of my time, so I was up from 2am onwards, chatting. A staff member joined us at one point. It was good to catch up with her.


Mon Choisy, without being asked, downloaded Skype, so I can Skype any day at more convenient times for me; for example 7am my time which is 3pm their time. Staff were trained in its use. I ‘phone to say I’m going to Skype which gives them time to bring my brother to the computer.


Outstanding loving care for residents, and their families. It really is my brother's home now.

I visited my friend at Mon Choisy care home last week and was very impressed with the level of care given to her. The care home staff were very welcoming and attentive. I have been to a number of care homes and this one is very different. The staff are wonderful! My friend has very advanced dementia
and I have seen a significant change and improvement in her character since moving to Mon Choisy. The staff really know what is going on and understand how to respond to her. Wonderful home.

Current Review Score: 9.2 (9.190)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.2 (9.190) out of 10 for Mon Choisy Care Home (Auditcare) 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 4.4 out of 5 from 5 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 4.797 for Mon Choisy Care Home (Auditcare) is calculated as follows: ( (47 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 59 Ratings = 4.797

  • 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 4.393 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Mon Choisy Care Home (Auditcare) is based on 5 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 = 3.5

    • 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 28 registered maximum number of service users is 5.6. 5 Positive Reviews ÷ 5.6 = 0.893

  • 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.
