I was very apprehensive when my husband needed to go into a care home but my worries were unfounded when he came into the care home. I couldn't have asked for better given the circumstances. He is cared for very well. The staff are excellent, they are friendly and helpful, which makes for a very nice
atmosphere. Given all of this couldn't wish for anything better for my husband which makes me happy. Thank you.

My husband has been in the home nearly a year now. He seems quite settled. The care is excellent. The home is very family orientated, always met with smiles and nothing is too much trouble. The welfare of the residents is very important to everyone. The menus are varied and very well served. The organiser
for entertainment is very good and does her utmost to include as many residents to join in who are able. Cleanliness is a good factor and I would recommend the home.

I found the staff and facilities of this home to be very good indeed. As an ex-police officer (City of London) I am usually highly critical of life but this care home up to now has met all my expectations of what a care home is and how it operates.

The security in the care home is first class. Duties carried out by staff are excellent (regimentally logged and never missed).
You only have to witness the care shown to each individual at meal times to realise that staff are aware of the persons needs and how they like to eat or be fed and at what
pace.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.716)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.716) out of 10 for Upton Manor Care Home 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 25 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 4.716 for Upton Manor Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (241 Excellents x 5) + (44 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) + (5 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 299 Ratings = 4.716

  • 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 Upton Manor Care Home 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 67 registered maximum number of service users is 13.4, 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.
