Firstly can I say a big thank you to the manager, all her staff, from nurses, carers, cleaners, kitchen staff, and everyone involved in the care of my mum. She was transferred from the hospital to Mahogany Care Home, where the staff was amazing, compassionate, and so caring, my mum was there for only
7 nights where she needed 24-hour care 1 to 1, which myself and the manager fought to get this care for my mum, which was given. I would definitely recommend this care home, we as a family give gratitude to the care home for the understanding, care, compassion and also the love they showed my mum in the short time my mum was there. Unfortunately, my mum passed away in the care home after 7 days, the home showed dignity and love and cared for us all at the end. I would like to say as a daughter a big thank you to the manager and all her staff.

My husband was initially very unsettled but due to the patience of the staff and support he has now settled well.
He has suffered a brain haemorrhage and has been left with a brain injury and his behaviour is unpredictable.
Mahogany takes it all in their stride and supports him as necessary.
I feel
he is safe and do not worry about leaving him.

My dad has been in the home since October due to him not being able to look after himself at home. The home is very clean and there is always a good selection of meals for the residents. The staff are so friendly, caring and respectful to all the residents. The manager is excellent and very helpful
if you have any concerns. My dad is very happy living there and wouldn't change a thing, when myself and husband go home we know he is safe and very happy. Thank you to the management and staff for all of your support.

Since my mum arrived at Mahogany, we have met some wonderful, caring staff. She is treated with dignity and respect, and any feedback has been addressed promptly. The manager has an open-door policy, and it is reassuring to see her around the building giving feedback and engaging with everyone.

The residents are treated with dignity and the ones I have spoken to feel safe and secure, which I feel is very important for elderly people.

My friend's Dad is in your care home.
Normally I visit with the family but I came to see him alone because the family was away. On each visit, the staff have been helpful and genuinely concerned about the residents and their families.

My auntie was here for about three months. She was looked after very well. The staff were amazing with her. She was very happy there.
It was very clean and they went out of their way to help her with whatever she needed.

My mum was admitted to Mahogany Care Home because she needed nurses to look after her. When we got the sad news from the doctor about Mum's health, we were apprehensive about care homes, our family has always looked after our parents at home. We have a large family. However, due to the nature of Mum's
condition, this was not an option. On arrival to Mahogany, the staff were very welcoming and could not do enough for Mum or family. Throughout her stay, care staff always ensured she was presentable and clean because she was no longer able to do it for herself. During her last days of life, the nurses were exceptional. They kept us informed with every step. Even the aftercare from the manager was exceptional, he made us feel at ease because we have never dealt with funeral directors before. Could not do enough for us. Decor is lovely. The only negative is the lounge near the nurses office is dated. No smells. Good food. Well staffed. Good activities for Mum in her last days of life. Thank you Mahogany.

I am resident in the care home for the past 3 weeks, exceptionally clean. All staff, including the lovely Manager all go out of their way to make you comfortable and happy. No request to the staff and Manager is ever too much for them. I can only say that my experience here is excellent.

We was told we could no longer care for Dad at home, and faced the daunting task of choosing the right care home. We found Mahogany Care Home to be very warm and welcoming. The staff all spoke and it has a proper family feel. Dad moved in on the Monday, but we had the issue of how we would celebrate
Mum and Dad's Platinum Wedding Anniversary, with less than a week to go. Mahogany suggested we had it there. They went above and beyond to make it a special day for them.
The staff are always cheerful and interacting with the residents, and the residents all appear happy , cared for and loved.
Up to now Dad is happy, loves the food and chats to others. Thank you to the staff for taking such good care of him.

Can't thank the manager and the staff enough for the care, respect and dignity they all showed to our mum, nothing was too much trouble for any of them. When mum passed away the staff showed my sister and myself soo much compassion which made handling the stressful time so much easier. We can't recommend
the home enough

My mother was helped to integrate slowly into the home's community as she had previously been living alone for over 20 years. I have seen a steady improvement in her mood and general activity.
All staff are very nice, approachable and helpful.
Thank you all.

After spending many months looking for the right home for my great auntie, we came across Mahogany Care Home. From the day we have enquired and shown interest, all the staff and manager have been nothing but helpful and friendly. Since my great aunt was in the home, I can honestly say I feel happy leaving
her there. I have been at many different times of the day, and the staff are always so happy and welcoming, and they showed a real interest in trying to get to know my auntie. Home always clean and tidy. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the members of the staff - cleaners, caterers, carers, nurses, administrator and manager.

Mahogany Care Home is run by a team of dedicated, hardworking, caring staff. When visiting mum there is always an air of calm and also an aroma of freshly made food! The staff always treat mum in a dignified and respectful manner, they are cheery and loving with her. All the staff, are friendly and
approachable and nothing is too much trouble for them. The manager has been very supportive and gives us regular feedback on mum's progress. Mum is happy and secure and well cared for, this is of great comfort to us as a family.

Hi. I would like to recommend Mahogany Care Home. I visited with a friend whose grandmother is a resident. The home was very clean and homely. I saw that the staff were non-stop, looking after all the residents. My friend's grandmother said she loves it there. The nurses and carers are very nice and
the food is excellent. She said the manager is very nice and always speaks to her along with all the other people there. She said her room is warm and cosy. She feels very safe there. I agree it was very nice.
Please pass this message on to the home. Thank you.

An atmosphere of calm greets you at Mahogany House. Mum has been a resident there for almost a year. During that time my family and I have found the quality of care to be first class. Staff at all levels are friendly and approachable whilst working hard to ensure residents are safe, comfortable and
healthy. They always have time for a cheery word and a happy smile. All staff, especially carers and nurses treat mum with dignity and respect. A varied schedule of activities are planned throughout the week keeping residents engaged. Mum and her friends tell me the food is delicious. The dedication of the staff is greatly appreciated. Leaving mum after a visit I am assured all her needs are well catered for.

Lovely caring staff who treat their residents (and the resident's visitors) like one big family. Each time I visit my Mum, who has been a resident here for many months, I always feel very welcomed into this safe happy family atmosphere.
The rooms are of a high standard, they are tastefully decorated
and always kept nice and clean.
Meals are very good quality and nicely varied from day to day.
There are lots of activities for residents, the lounge is a hive of happy activity! There is also respect for the residents who wish to have alone time instead of joining in, everyone is treated with respect and dignity.
Staff always wear face coverings and are very friendly, helpful and patient - nothing is too much for them.
I would highly recommend Mahogany care home - the manager and all of her staff genuinely care for your loved one. Thank you so much for all you do.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.856)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.856) out of 10 for Mahogany Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 36 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 36 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 4.856 for Mahogany Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (362 Excellents x 5) + (50 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 417 Ratings = 4.856

  • 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 Mahogany Care Home is based on 36 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 51 registered maximum number of service users is 10.2, which has been reached with 36 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.
