My mother has been here for 3 weeks and can’t fault the service. Staff are very caring and can’t do enough to make the residents comfortable. The gardens and facilities are amazing, my mum has been encouraged to spend time outside something she hasn’t done for ages. Would say highly recommend if you
are looking for somewhere for your family members.

Since the moment my dad was to be placed at Aliwal Manor the care of the staff has been great, from liaising with the hospital, his GP, and the family. His respite care has helped him enormously. He is treated with respect and dignity. The food is very good and they cater for his food allergy well.
Happy to recommend to others in a similar position who need residential care, whether it be short or long-term.

Reply from Kirstan Sparshott, Regional Sales & Marketing Business Partner at Aliwal Manor Care Home

Hi Ann. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience of Aliwal Manor. We are so pleased to have been fortunate enough to help and support your father and it's lovely to hear that you would recommend us to others.

My mum came to Aliwal Manor after discharge from hospital for Interim Care. Unfortunately, Mum was unable to benefit from all their amazing care, in as much as she is now end-of-life. Nevertheless, I am really impressed and truly grateful for their kindness and compassion. Nothing is too much trouble.

My family and I are most satisfied with Aliwal Manor Care Home. The staff are very caring and meet all our Mum's needs. The standard of food is highly recommended. Cleanliness throughout the home is first-rate. We have always found the Manager to be most helpful and easy to talk to. We find all the
staff most approachable and willing to help with any queries one might have. Throughout Covid, they have managed extremely well although like every other home all entertainment brought into the home weekly had to stop but the lifestyle co-ordinator has kept all residents very happy and busy with lots of activities to ensure they get regular stimulation and exercise as well as many games and much laughter shared with other residents whilst taking part.

My auntie was so looked after, it was like she had extended family with all of the carers. She was so happy. When my auntie passed away in June the carers went above and beyond, not just for my auntie but for myself too. My auntie's dementia needs were always met and always with a smile. When I was
with her and a carer walked in she welcomed them with a lovely smile, she loved them all and she used to tell them that too. It’s never easy having a loved one in a care home but here, it was the perfect home in all areas. A big thank you to you all, you are all amazing.

I cannot fault the care given on a daily basis to my Mum, the care and compassion is exceptional. All the staff are amazing and so dedicated to their jobs displaying caring qualities above and beyond. They have kept our loved ones safe throughout the pandemic and continue to do so. The residents and
staff are always happy and this is down to the dedication of all the staff in keeping them motivated and having fun encouraging residents to participate in the activities on offer. Thank you for providing my Mum with a loving and caring home, I can rest assured she is in safe hands 24/7.

Treated with nothing but exemplary care, kindness and dignity. Whilst only there for 12 weeks I was made to feel very welcome by the wonderful staff and residents add my every need catered for. I would also say that the quality of the meals provided was excellent - worthy of any restaurant.

Although dad's time at Aliwal Manor was short, the care he received was excellent. Knowing he was so well looked after gave us peace of mind, for which we are so thankful. We have nothing but admiration for all the staff at Aliwal Manor, they are fabulous.

Excellent care home with friendly kind staff, lots of activities and excellent food. I think a little more care on the laundry would be good. But apart from that no complaints.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.804)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.804) out of 10 for Aliwal Manor 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 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 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 4.804 for Aliwal Manor Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (146 Excellents x 5) + (31 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 179 Ratings = 4.804

  • 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 Aliwal Manor Care Home is based on 15 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 32 registered maximum number of service users is 6.4, which has been reached with 15 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.
