Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

There are so many exceptional staff at Regency Manor that it is difficult to choose one thing that epitomises the wonderful care, love and friendship that the residents experience. Perhaps the following will show why Regency Manor is, in my opinion, "head and shoulders" above most other care homes.
My mother enjoys weekend trips out but her mobility recently meant it was extremely difficult for me to move her safely between her wheelchair and my car.
A member of the activities team has a classic London taxi and he has arrived, off duty, on several Sundays to take me and mum in her wheelchair, for some wonderful cream teas. He combines this with bringing another lady to spend precious time with her husband, who is a resident at Regency Manor.
When we arrive back with mum he collects the other lady and takes her home again.
She is unable to visit without this help so this kind act brings joy and enrichment to 4 lives and we are all very grateful.
This is just one instance of the way staff at Regency Manor go above and beyond what is expected of them. Well done, each and every one of you.

Granddad says it is magnificent, he feels comfortable and likes the fact that he can decide to mix in or stay in his room. Staff are kind and look after him even when poorly. Granddad enjoys the food and it has a good variety. He likes having his own television in his room.

I have been a visitor here for almost 2 years and have always had a very warm welcome. There is always smiles on faces whether staff or residents. My friend tells me also that everyone is so kind, nothing is too much trouble. I have visited many homes but never seen the love and care that is given here,
so very gentle with residents even at difficult times. This home is a fine example of elderly care in every way, it is light, bright and so very clean, just amazing.

Mum and Dad enjoyed living here. Dad said that had he known what it was like he would have moved here much sooner. There's a huge amount of thought that goes into ensuring everyone is cared for as the individual that they are and that each resident feels that Regency is their home. Mind you, for quite
some time Mum thought she was staying in a hotel.
I cannot praise the staff here enough for making the last years of my parent's lives as enjoyable and as comfortable as they were. A lot of good memories.

From the very first time that we went to Regency Manor, we were very impressed. The welcome by the staff was warm and friendly even though they didn't know us. The whole atmosphere of the place was homely and inviting. All the residents looked content and were clean and tidy and cared for. If we were
ever in a position where we need care for a family member, we would be very happy for them to be looked after there. Well done to all the staff.

I live in Regency Manor for more than a year. What I like about Regency Manor is that I feel free to go around the home and I enjoy the cafe area and the garden. The staff are always ready to help and give assistance, they make me feel confident about myself and treat me with respect and dignity and
they have a sense of humour. I don't feel like a live in a care home.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.980)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.980) out of 10 for Regency Manor Residential & Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 4.980 for Regency Manor Residential & Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (247 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 252 Ratings = 4.98

  • 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 Regency Manor Residential & Nursing Home 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 69 registered maximum number of service users is 13.8, 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.
