Was a resident from Oct 2023 to June 2024. Initially things were good but then I had the worst experience of my life like a horror movie and didnt feel safe. Staff especially management were unprofessional and uncaring and I found out I was being recorded in my room. They got me sectioned which was
the lesser of two evils but they took me to hospital under false pretences and didn't help me to get help for my severe head trauma which I believe is terminal and I have severe PTSD as a result of my experience there.

My sister has been a resident since the opening of Blackmore. She is looked after well and is safe. While the care home has been establishing its procedures, communication has been good and concerns are always discussed professionally.

My brother came here after a stroke and is still with them. The home is wonderful. Staff are so good with him. He came here confused and they have given him back his dignity.
He was taken into hospital recently and yet again, they have taken the best care ever.
We, as a family, can't fault the care
here. The staff are so good. The home is a clean, bright and a pleasant place. Food is very good and everywhere is clean.

After spending a very lengthy time in hospital, my husband was discharged to Blackmoor Nursing Home. Naturally, we were all very stressed and filled with trepidation, but to our joy, upon arrival, he was met with such compassionate, caring staff members who went out of their way to make us all feel
welcome and have been most reassuring and my husband's rather complex needs have all been met so professionally.

Since our son has been a resident at Blackmoor, he has received excellent care. It's such comfort to know he's safe and happy. We've found the staff and in particular, the new manageress very thoughtful, caring and efficient.

Current Review Score: 8.3 (8.313)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.3 (8.313) out of 10 for Blackmoor is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.3 out of 5 from 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.0 out of 5 from 4 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 4.271 for Blackmoor is calculated as follows: ( (46 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) + (10 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 59 Ratings = 4.271

  • 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 4.042 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Blackmoor is based on 4 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 = 3.375

    • 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. 4 Positive Reviews ÷ 6 = 0.667

  • 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.
