This is a place you feel comfortable to visit.
Residents are well cared for, carers take the time to get to know their residents and will always make time for them.
Nothing is too much trouble.
Visitors always made welcome.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Couldn't fault Aliwal Manor. The staff are so kind and helpful, just sorry my relative was not able to stay. But, the staff were helpful in finding us another care home which I was most grateful to a sister company which made it a less stressful move. I cannot speak more highly of the manager and team.
Thank you for helping me through a very stressful time.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Based on visits to the home and information given to us by the resident who has full capacity but is totally blind and therefore cannot take or does not want to take part in many of the activities. We have always found the staff caring and willing to assist.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
The Aliwal Manor care home is like a home from home for the residents. The staff are so kind and compassionate to those in their care. They are prepared to go that extra mile. The home is run on a Gold Standard Rating. I have nothing but praise for the home and the staff who work tirelessly for the
residents. It is how a care home should be.

Lovely cosy home. Beautifully decorated throughout. Residents rooms as well as all communal areas very clean and tidy. Each unit has own lounge with small attached kitchen for visitors to use when spending time with their resident. Staff kind and attentive. One of the best homes I have visited while
choosing a place for our elderly relative.

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.
