Although dad's time at Aliwal Manor was short, the care he received was excellent. Knowing he was so well looked after gave us peace of mind, for which we are so thankful. We have nothing but admiration for all the staff at Aliwal Manor, they are fabulous.

Always responsive and understanding. The staff are kind and always show empathy. The manager and deputy manager are very easy to talk to and always ready to discuss any concerns. I know mum was well looked after and happy at Aliwal Manor.

Excellent care home with friendly kind staff, lots of activities and excellent food. I think a little more care on the laundry would be good. But apart from that no complaints.

My mother is very stubborn and resisted at first to going into care. Now she is very settled and has nothing but good to say about the staff.
Only thing she complains about is the standard of food, she has always been a keen cook but has very exacting standards where food is concerned.

have managed the coronavirus situation very professionally.

Our Nan has seemed to blossom during her time in Aliwal Manor. We no longer worry about her being on her own and feel confident that she is being looked after and settled. As visitors, always made welcome and we love looking at the social media photographs!

Review from G F (Daughter of Resident) published on 4 December 2019 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
As a family, it was decided that our mother needed more care and attention than living in her flat. Carers did come in but mum still kept falling during nights and days. Since she was admitted she has really looked better and seemed more ready to join in chats and organises activities. The staff have
made it pleasant and welcoming that it was the best decision we made.

My mother seems content at Aliwal Manor.
She is included in the activities which I feel she enjoys. The staff are always on hand to ensure she is looked after. She has put on a little weight recently which is good. The home is clean and well looked after.

A welcoming and friendly place with caring and attentive staff that is well run. A visit always begins with a warm welcome, followed by full use of amenities when with your respective residential family member. A high level of care is always provided, from attentive and respectful staff members.

First impressions are vital and mine were more than satisfied on my first visit/viewing. Staff were friendly and helpful. Residents were happy and chatty and the whole place had more of an 'old school' feel rather than a 'clinical' environment.


Pet chickens, bingo and your own hairdresser. What

From the first introduction by the management team to my parents (one in respite care, one in hospital) the transition to Aliwal Manor has been excellent. They have delivered what they promised in a caring, compassionate, fun way. They have been calm and professional when things have gone wrong (parents
falling). They make residents feel special. Well run, well led, great team, safe environment = happy residents!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.859)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.859) out of 10 for Aliwal Manor Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.859 for Aliwal Manor Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (168 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 192 Ratings = 4.859
  2. 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 Aliwal Manor Care Home is based on 16 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 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
    2. 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 32 registered maximum number of service users is 6.4, which has been reached with 16 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
