My mother has been a resident of Belvedere Manor for the last 3 years and has remained very happy there, with the staff being very attentive and caring. She has been very happy but unfortunately, these last 18 months have been a very testing time for us all and she came through it extremely well. Even
after a reduced number of visits, during this time she has remained upbeat and safe.

Reply from Ali Gopaul, Home Manager at Belvedere Manor

Thank you for your review. I am delighted that you feel your mother has come through the pandemic so well. We have tried very hard to keep our residents safe and well. It is also lovely to read that you find our team attentive and caring. I will share your feedback with the team.

I cannot praise the manager and his team enough. This home is beautiful and spotless like a 5 star hotel. The first time I stepped into the home I felt totally uplifted. The welcome my mum received on arrival was second to none - professional with lots of happy faces. I could not be happier with the
home. I get regular updates between visits on how mum has been and already feel like it's an extended family. The management and staff could not be any more helpful and reassuring. A big thank you to you all xx

I am very pleased with the care my father has received since he moved to Belvedere Manor. He has now been in the home for over four years and the standard of care is exemplary. It is one of the best decisions we have ever made having our father move there and puts our minds at ease knowing that he receives
care from very professional and caring people.
The home is well managed and all of the Belvedere team, in all positions perform to an excellent standard within their roles and across roles if necessary.
The Covid crisis has been a particularly trying time, but the team have done a fantastic job keeping all our relatives safe and helping to maintain relatives contact, in various forms, throughout.
Well done Belvedere!

Due to the care and kindness of the staff, my mother settled very quickly into Belvedere Manor. She is enjoying the activities and I have been impressed with the way that the staff have quickly and sympathetically dealt with any problems, real or imaginary, that my mother has brought to them. The staff
go out of their way to ensure that she is as happy and worry-free as possible, which enables my family and myself to feel confident that she is getting the best care possible and will continue to do so as her Alzheimer's progresses. I would also like to praise the manager and the office team who are readily available to chat about any concerns. I would readily recommend Belvedere Manor to anyone looking for an excellent care home.

My mum became a resident of Belvedere Manor this month and could not have been looked after any better. The staff are so loving and caring and could not do enough to help Mum settle in.
The management have helped me through all the aspects of moving Mum into the care home.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

Our 92-year-old Mum has been a permanent resident at Belvedere Manor since the end of January 2021 when it became obvious she could no longer stay in her own home. As Mum is still very active but has memory problems, the family had struggled to find somewhere we liked that would permit her to live in
the general population of the home, rather than allow her only onto the dementia wards because of her diagnosis of Alzheimer's.
We were impressed with Belvedere Manor from our initial contact via their website and telephone, through the virtual tour and all our subsequent contacts until Mum moved there in January 2021. Due in no small part to the care and dedication of all the staff, she has settled in remarkably well and she praises them endlessly for their patience and kindness.
We are more than happy with the care Mum is receiving and it is such a relief to know she is safe and well cared for, both physically and emotionally. Thank you to everyone at Belvedere Manor.

From the first time we stepped into Belvedere Manor when looking for a suitable home, we knew that we had found an exceptional place. First impressions were amazing and what we encountered then has been consistently evident throughout the two years Mum has been with you. Staff throughout, regardless
of their role within the home, have shown love, respect, compassion and friendship and have always treated Mum with such dignity. These qualities have been extended to us too, and we have always felt a valued part of the Belvedere family. We will miss you all. The past year has been so difficult, and to see the deterioration of Mum through lack of family contact has been heartbreaking. However, we have had complete trust in all of your first class care continually given to Mum under such difficult circumstances. We wish you all the very best for the future. You will remain in our thoughts with fondness and appreciation for always. Thank you so much for being a part of our family. With all our best wishes.

I have been so impressed with everything about this care home and feel we made the right choice on behalf of

Mum has been a resident at Belvedere Manor for three months. She settled well initially and remarked on arrival how beautiful everything was. Mum has a lovely room overlooking the courtyard garden and everywhere appears to be well maintained with a calming, restful atmosphere. The staff are very caring
and have been extremely helpful in assisting mum with her iPad to enable her family to contact her regularly on Facetime. The Belvedere Manor Facebook site is useful for keeping up to date with the activities which are underway within the Home. We have the highest regard for the care mum is receiving within the Home and feel that all the staff are doing their very best in these difficult times. It is sad to say however that mum's adjustment to residential care is made more difficult by the restrictions placed on Belvedere Manor by Government and LA in connection with the pandemic. The Authorities need to reassess these restrictions urgently as another seven months or more can only lead to far worse problems than COVID.

My mother has lived at Belvedere Manor for over three years. The staff are kind, caring and compassionate, and have always treated Mum with dignity and respect. They have tried to get to know her as an individual and to cater not only for her needs but also her preferences.
The staff are inspired
by the manager and deputy manager, who make themselves available to talk with residents, staff and family members and who lead by example.
All members of staff are seen as valuable, including all the domestic staff, and are treated as part of the whole team.
There are three activity co-ordinators who cater for the diversity of needs and interests of the residents with an imaginative response and a variety of activities.
Residents' forum meetings are held in which they can bring up suggestions or concerns and also family forum meetings. Now, during the Covid crisis, they have set up a family Facebook page to enable families to support each other.
It is like a luxury hotel, with extra care for the discerning elderly!

The care that mum receives is very attentive, it’s been hard for mum whilst l have not been able to visit because of the pandemic. However, dropping her regular letters and cards/photos has kept her going. What has been going the extra mile are things like they have sent me a letter back from mum with
her thoughts and emailed me a lovely photo of her showing her looking very happy, this all makes not seeing her more bearable.

My mother came to live at Belvedere Manor over two years ago and what a fantastic home she has. She enjoys the attentive care of all the staff who look after her so professionally. She enjoys the meals they provide and has had individual dietary needs which are met. Her room is always spotless as are
the communal areas. Since being resident at Belvedere, she has had numerous episodes of ill health which have been dealt with efficiently and safely. She is always listened to and treated with dignity. The coffee lounge is an added bonus to me when I visit, a friendly welcoming space. The whole team at Belvedere are helpful and considerate to my mum's needs and I cannot thank them enough.

We had to find Mum a home during the COVID-19 pandemic as her long term Alzheimer's had hit the point of us being unable to care for her at home. The manager and the support/admin team made this admission seamless during the initial assessment stages. Mum is now in place and has made friends with both
the other residents and staff and we are so happy. Thanks to the whole team for making this what is a difficult time feel a lot easier to handle. Great staff and understanding of the situation.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.886)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.886) out of 10 for Belvedere Manor 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 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 17 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 4.886 for Belvedere Manor is calculated as follows: ( (182 Excellents x 5) + (17 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 202 Ratings = 4.886

  • 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 Belvedere Manor is based on 17 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 84 registered maximum number of service users is 16.8, which has been reached with 17 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.
