In some circumstances, the home can care for people under 65 years of age if the assessed needs of the individual can be met. 24 hour care is available from the home's care team and registered nurses. This 2 storey purpose built home opened in 2007 and provides the highest standard of care in a first class environment.

Since my father has been living here I have noticed how much calmer and happier he seems to be. My father seems to be well looked after and the care staff here are very kind to him and myself when I visit. My father is always clean and tidy and I am constantly offered food and drinks. Staff are always
available to assist in anyway they can and always take time to talk to me regarding my fathers care and wellbeing and/or any concerns I may have.

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.653) out of 10 for Immacolata House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 4.653 for Immacolata House is calculated as follows: ( (185 Excellents x 5) + (48 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Poors x 2) + (4 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 245 Ratings = 4.653

  • 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 Immacolata House is based on 21 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 49 registered maximum number of service users is 9.8, which has been reached with 21 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: Care Home Manager

Joined: 2015

Sue was born in the West Midlands, in 1977 she moved to Gloucestershire and started a career in Catering Management. In 1989 after moving back to Birmingham, Sue started her Nursing career, first as a student nurse then moving to her first post on a stroke ward. Sue continued to work in various nursing roles.


An opportunity then arose to manage a home, who at the time were a small company in (Taunton Somerset). Sue managed the home for 10 years. Her next move involved turning failing homes around and building their reputations, a position she held for over 6 years.


In 2015 Sue joined Notaro Homes, her reason was she viewed the company as small enough to be personal, yet large enough to be effective and combined with an excellent local reputation. Sue has had a keen interest in Dementia care since 2009 which she continues to develop. She also holds a teaching qualification and enjoys mentoring students both pre and post-registration.


In her spare time, Sue lives on a smallholding of 5 Acres where she has sheep, ducks, chickens, geese and 6 dogs. She is also an assured breeder of West Highland Whites with the Kennel Club under the kennel name Alansus. Other hobbies and interests are travel, cooking, reading, walking and horse racing.
