I have spent the last couple of months at Moore Place Care Home. Where I have been extremely well looked after by all the staff, regardless of the position they hold. I have been treated as a person and not just a number. If I have any problems, staff find the time to explain things to me. Trips out
are arranged, including a trip last month to see a singer, what a treat.
Thank you for caring for what was once a small thing but is now, unfortunately, more major.
Thank you all.

My mum has been living at Moore Place for two years and is settled and happy there and well cared for. She recently celebrated her 100th birthday and the staff and management went out of their way to make it a very special day for her and her family. The chef provided delicious food and a wonderful
cake. They had decorated the area and she and her family had a really lovely and memorable afternoon. We are very grateful for the kindness and care of the Moore Place team.

My first point of contact was the wonderful receptionist who put my mind at rest. I then met the home manager, who was truly amazing in reassuring me. I then met the team, all of who have been the best I could ask for.

I had to find a care home for Mum at very short notice near the start of Covid, and right from the start, I was impressed with the ease and speed with which getting her from the hospital to Moore Place, recovering from a broken hip, was handled. Mum is very happy there, so much more relaxed than she
was in her own home, and I think this has contributed to the fact that her dementia hasn't progressed much at all since she has been there. The dementia floor is always quiet and calm, with enough staff to look after the residents. The staff are very caring and go above and beyond, and I have liaised with the same lovely team leader since Mum has been there. The fact she regularly takes on extra shifts shows how much she cares about her job! The new manager is making a point of getting to know the residents' families, and I'm sure Moore Place will continue to be run as well as it was under the new manager. I really couldn't have chosen a better care home.

My mother, a resident on the specialist dementia 1st floor, for over four years, passed away on 25 January 2023.
From inception to the end of her days at Moore Place, my mother has been the beneficiary of an exceptionally high standard of loving care.
The management teams and key employees have provided
a consistent level of operational standards, despite the period covering a global pandemic, and more recently economic and geopolitical turmoil resulting in the highest level of inflation and interest rates for forty years.
The purpose-built facility provides a high standard of accommodation, and most importantly integrated wet rooms, as well as communal areas, giving the residents opportunities for both privacy and quiet, as well as social interaction.
I wholeheartedly recommend this care home for your nearest and dearest.

The warmest and most caring of people that genuinely connect with residents to get to know them individually so much so that family members who visit feel instantly welcomed with warmth and welcome.
Staff team members attend the residence for work daily not because they have to but because they love
to.
Thank you for sharing the love and keep it up!

I was of course anxious as to how my mother-in-law would cope in a care home. She had always been independent but the time had come for her to receive more targeted care. When we looked at Moore Place, we immediately became attracted to the home, facilities and the ethos of the care provided to residents.
My mother-in-law settled in quite quickly and without any hiccups, it became her home. Staff were always available to her needs and whenever an issue arose as to her wellbeing, staff dealt with it in a timely and considered fashion. I have no doubt this was one of the reasons for the extended life span. It gave us the opportunity to share, not just months but possibly years of quality time with my mother-in-law. I thank the staff and the care provided, for this. We have so many fond memories of our attendances at Moore Place and am pleased that my mother-in-law spent so many years in an environment that she deserved, namely what is rightly called, her home.

Our grandmother was a resident at Moore Place until she recently passed away at the beginning of January. It was a very difficult time for us, but yet the carers never failed to help us during that time. From the second we arrived on that Wednesday morning until the second we left, the love and kindness
the carers expressed was always present and appreciated.
In addition, throughout our grandmother's stay at the care home, we never once feared for her safety or loneliness as she was always very well looked after and very well loved by all the workers at Moore Place. It brought us joy knowing that our grandma had found a second home, one which we know she loved, appreciated and enjoyed.
We would like to express our deep thanks and gratitude to everyone at Moore Place, who welcomed our grandmother with open arms and kept her safe and loved during her six years at the home.
Thank you Moore Place!

I was very impressed by how well Moore Place looked after my late mother-in-law. I was sceptical about how well she would fit in because English was not her native language and she was a humble lady of simple means and Moore Place looked so luxurious (I wouldn't have minded staying there myself!). It
was the wonderful staff who made her welcome and comfortable and helped her fit in. She recently passed away peacefully and I experienced such warmth and affection towards my mother-in-law in those final days and moments it was lovely to see, and that extended to her whole family. I hope I am looked after as well as that in my old age. Very impressive.

My mother was a founding member of Moore Place since it opened over six years ago. She recently passed away. She arrived at Moore Place in 2016 with dementia after returning back to the UK from her home country, Sicily, following a heavy fall there. She spoke limited English, but that didn't matter.
Because the staff went above and beyond to take great care of my mum. They made mamma feel welcomed, loved and respected. Their finest hour was during the Covid pandemic. They were amazing. Kept everyone safe, followed the rules and did everything possible for family to see loved ones. Staff were so imaginative in the ways they kept residents happy and safe. I was humbled by the experience and I owe them all a huge debt of gratitude and feel great respect and affection for them all. My mum was very happy at Moore Place; she loved her carers, her angels. They shared a warm relationship with lots of joy, charm, dignity and fun. And that amazing love and care lasted right up to her death, and beyond.

My mum was a resident at Moore Place for six years. She sadly passed away recently. I have no words that can express my deep thanks and gratitude towards all the carers. Their care and love were visible not only towards my mum but also towards the family. If there was a higher score available, I would
not hesitate to give it to them.
Mum was very happy at Moore Place and I am so happy to have been able to call it her home and also ours whenever we visited. Management did a great job at keeping all the residents safe during Covid. I genuinely believe that my mum was with us for all those additional six years, due to the dedicated and committed care that was given by the fantastic staff at Moore Place.

So moved Mum and Dad into the home in the middle of the pandemic. Sadly Dad passed away during 1st 6 months but due to the compassion and care of the whole team, Mum is a very happy and well looked after dementia patient. Due to how she is cared for, I really believe that the onset of memory loss has
slowed down. She gets involved in many activities and loves going out on minibus trips. The manager has been truly instrumental in guiding the whole team and creating a great place for Mum to live. Although the current manager has now been promoted to area manager his legacy will live on through his care and dedication to the home and making sure himself that the right predecessor is found. I can thoroughly recommend Moore Place to anyone looking for care.

Moore Place is a very well run care home. It has a happy welcoming atmosphere and the no agency staff policy means that carers get to know my mum and all her foibles. The staff are very accommodating and friendly and really seem to care. The facilities are excellent, bright spacious rooms. The entertainment

If there was a 6 star option I would have given it. The entire team and management at Moore Place are an exceptional group of people. My mother, who suffers from dementia, had been a resident of another home but I had to move her on discovering a low standard of care. It was a very upsetting experience
and I thought perhaps all 'care' homes were the same. Moore Place has proved me totally wrong. Every member of staff is kind, gentle and compassionate. They cannot do enough for Mum and genuinely seem to want to help her. As a result, Mum is calm and content. She seems to understand that they care for her and care about her. Their attention to the small details which makes Mum's life nicer is definitely noticed and appreciated by me. The high ratio of staff to residents means that the needs of the residents are anticipated so they are never left needing assistance and there is always company if they would like it. Exceptionally high quality, thoughtful and genuine care...thank you!

Cant rate highly enough. My mum needed some temporary respite after a fall, as she wasn't able to return home for a while. From inquiry to getting her settled the service was brilliant, all the staff and carers are so caring and kind and my mum found nothing was ever too much for them to do for her.
As she isn't mobile she felt bad ringing the button a lot of the time, but none of the carers ever made her feel like she was annoying them at all and they could never do enough for her. The food is delicious and she didn't go hungry and can get snacks throughout the day. She, unfortunately, had to return to hospital from the home for a while but will be returning back to the home again in January 2022 and is very much looking forward to recuperating again there knowing that she will be well taken care of and can rest in such lovely surroundings. The rooms are lovely and up there with top-end hotel standards!
As her daughter, I feel extremely at ease with her being there.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.933)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.933) out of 10 for Moore Place 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 24 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 24 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 4.933 for Moore Place is calculated as follows: ( (268 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 285 Ratings = 4.933

  • 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 Moore Place is based on 24 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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, which has been reached with 24 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.
