Fabulous reception from staff & nothing was too much trouble, always a friendly staff available for any questions & my friend advised she doesn't know what she would have done without there full support & rehab therapy to enable her to go back home, which was her main goal. The place is so well kept
& clean, this is how all care should be delivered, amazing!

My mother enjoyed her time at Little Manor Care Home and all staff are friendly. Other then OT's and physio's who contacted me with updates on my mothers health I had no weekly updates on how she was progressing. She also ended up with very bad bed sores and became incontinent during her stay here.
With the right care I would have through she would have not had these sores. Sadly she is still incontinent too which could have been avoided.

On several visits to my dear friend, I've been so impressed and happy with everything about Little Manor: it's beautiful, the care, staff, warmth, decor and cleanliness. No one seemed rushed and we were always welcome with a smile. I have always worked in care homes and quite honestly this is the best.
My aunt was also with you in 2023 and we had the same experience. I would highly recommend. Thank you all.

I have been in the Little Manor Care Centre for 25 days and have received nothing but courtesy and care from all the staff. I know that their job is not always easy and I have tried to be patient when times have been difficult for them. I wish to say thank you for the care I have been given.

I have been very well looked after by all the staff. They are a credit to the company. Nothing has been too much trouble for them. The occupational therapist and physio have been giving me more confidence after my surgery and they have worked hard to me with recuperation.

I enjoyed staying at Little Manor Care Centre. The staff were kind and helpful and the food was excellent. I miss the activities and the large room, especially the 'birds of prey'.
Outstanding.

I enjoyed my stay with you following my full in October 2024. I understand that I didn't come to you until a fortnight after my fall on the 18th of October and it is maybe as well and have no recollection of my being in hospital. I must refer to the meals first as they were absolutely brilliant, just
right for me, in particular the lovely puddings which I did enjoy. Staff at all times were very helpful, even finding the correct programmes on the television and putting me to bed at a reasonable hour. Who says that the health sector is crumbling? I believe in the lady on the television when she says "God bless the NHS", well done.

I had a very pleasant stay and enjoyed going out into the garden for some fresh air and to enjoy my cigarette break. I have been smoking since I was twelve years old. so I am not inclined to stop smoking.

My mother had three weeks at Little Manor in rehab after breaking her leg. She was then transferred to a nursing home in Somerset. The staff at all levels were caring, professional and friendly. The room was lovely and it was a big step up from her earlier two weeks in hospital. Thank you to all the
staff, well done.

Excellent facility, tidy and clean. Attentive staff, although sometimes difficult to understand. Very good at following medical formalities. Food and drink are timely and good. Disappointed there was no gym and that physiotherapy time was very limited (30 minutes per day).

The friednly, caring, kind staff delivered individually trained support to me following a stay in hospital. The individual room with ensuite bathroom was clean, comfortable and light with the communal areas were welcoming environments aiding recovery.
The therapy team set clear challenging achievable
goals to strengthen my legs enabling me to walk. The rehabilitation offered is person-centred drawing input from the therapist, the resident and family members. The joined-up service approach offered an excellent strategy to aid recovery.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.651)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.651) out of 10 for Little Manor Care Centre 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 44 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 42 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 4.651 for Little Manor Care Centre is calculated as follows: ( (374 Excellents x 5) + (88 Goods x 4) + (32 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Poors x 2) + (2 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 501 Ratings = 4.651

  • 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 Little Manor Care Centre is based on 42 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 30 registered maximum number of service users is 6, which has been reached with 42 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.
