* Care Quality Commission is responsible for the registration and inspection of social care services in England.
The Review Score of 9.2 (maximum of 10) for Boroughbridge Manor Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 26 Reviews over all time. This Average Rating is also the rating value for Boroughbridge Manor Care Home in Google's Search Results - more info
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 9 positive Reviews in the last 12 months.
a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating of all Reviews over all time. For each review the Care Home / service is rated Excellent, Good, Satisfactory, Poor or Very Poor on a number of areas eg Staff, Management etc. The Care Home receives points for each rating as follows: Excellent = 5. Good = 4. Satisfactory = 3. Poor = 2. Very Poor = 1. These points are added up and then divided by the total number of completed ratings to generate the average rating.
The Average Rating of 4.601 for Boroughbridge Manor Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (194 Excellents x 5) + (97 Goods x 4) + (12 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 303 Ratings = 4.601
b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 12 months. If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with 'Extremely Likely' or 'Likely' in answer to the question 'How likely are you to recommend this Care Home to friends and family if they needed similar care or treatment?'
The 5 points available are broken down as follows:
4 points are available for the first 5 Positive Reviews, 3 points for the first Positive Review and then 0.25 Points for each of the next 4 Positive Reviews.
1 point is available for reaching a target number of Positive Reviews based on 20% of the number of registered maximum number of service users. If the target is partially reached then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home with 50 registered maximum number of service users has a target of 10 Positive Reviews, if it has 10 or more Positive Reviews it will receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews will receive 0.7 points.
If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. The calculation is the same as above, except the points are divided by 2.
The 4.584 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Boroughbridge Manor Care Home is based on 9 positive Reviews in the last 12 months and is calculated as follows:
3 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 = 4
Target of 15.4 positive Reviews (77 registered maximum number of service users ÷ 5). 9 Reviews ÷ 15.4 Target = 0.584
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
Boroughbridge Manor Care Home has a Review Score of 9.2 (9.185) from 26 Reviews

My grandma has been a resident of Boroughbridge Manor Care Home for around three years now. The staff have always been very very good, efficient, happy, fun, professional and most of all, caring. The staff really make it a great place for the residents and visitors. This last week when we visited I was struck by a staff member who we'd not met before. She said she had only recently moved to a day shift, having previously done nights. I'm sorry to mention one staff member in particular but I feel strongly to do so. Her manner and care for my grandma was brilliant, really, she is an asset to the team at Boroughbridge Manor.

As soon as we arrived with mum for her respite care, we were greeted very warmly. This continued all through her stay. We were always offered a drink. The staff always smiled and addressed mum by her Christian name. Every effort was made to make mum's stay pleasant.
She was encouraged to join the other residents for lunch etc but if it was not her wish then meals were served in her room. We could not fault the staff as they helped us with care issues for mum and their knowledge of care matters was very encouraging.

My Mother was assessed by the team who work at the care home at her home address, they acted quickly on the results of the review. My Mother was allocated a room very quickly and was taken in. The care home is clean and very well run, the staff are always very helpful, and the improvement in the well-being and outlook on life has improved with my Mother. My Mother is very settled in the home, the only issue we have is with the local authority and the funding of the care that my Mother needs. My Mother has Alzheimer's and Vascular Dementia so the Boroughbridge Manor is the correct care home for my Mother's needs.

Generally good in all aspects. Could be better in entertainment for some of the residents. Can be boring with no action. Staff are helpful and pleasant.
The security of rooms has been and is an unsolved problem, so things go missing, but are generally recovered by staff.
More help could be given to getting people out into the garden area when we get suitable weather.

I am delighted with the level of care at Boroughbridge Manor. The staff are kind and the management is first class. My brother and I are so pleased that our mother, who has complex care needs, is safe, cosy and cared for in this home. We are always welcome on the premises and very much feel as if it is one big family.

The care and attention is very good and the rooms are good. It is a very well run home. I have only been here a short while, but the food is not as good as at first, shepherds pie and cottage pie seem to be too often and the teas are very hit and miss. Lacks variety and meat portions very sparse. My first stay in a home so very difficult to compare.

My husband died on 2nd December 2016 in a hospice after leaving hospital. I was in another hospital at this time after having a fall at home. After the service on 14th December, I came here, Boroughbridge being where I have lived for forty years. I was grateful that I knew I had asked about the Manor. Everyone has been so kind and understanding.

My mother needed to go into care as her medication stopped working and it was not possible to manage her at home. I was very worried as you hear so many stories of poor care in homes. I can honestly say my mum is receiving superb care. All the staff are so caring, the home is clean and the food is good quality and a good varied diet. My mum is struggling to be in care but the staff are wonderful. I know my mum is being well cared for 5*.

My mother was referred to the home by the hospital. I was not happy that she had been placed in a dementia ward, but that was the only bed available. Glad to say she improved a lot due to the staff's work.
Now she has been moved I think in time she will improve even more.

I found Boroughbridge Manor whilst looking at care homes for my friend with double dementia. The home is superb, clean, modern, bright and airy with en-suite shower rooms. The staff have all been amazing especially during the initial settling in period. The transition went really well due to the care, compassion understand and friendliness of the staff. The events and activities laid on everyday help my friend to become a part of the home. No problem is too small to be dealt with immediately. I have nothing but praise for giving my friend the best quality of life she can attain.

My parents were both at another home before moving to Boroughbridge Manor to obtain the more specialised care that they had begun to need. The move was organised by the two homes, went very smoothly and they have settled well. I find visiting difficult as it breaks their routine and my father especially is reluctant to engage. The staff are all extremely helpful in trying ways to improve these visits. They are also very kind to me.

I find the care of my father is very good. I had to find care for dad on his discharge from hospital and found it very difficult to choose a local care home. The nurses and manager made this much easier to make this decision with their care and understanding I have been very happy with his care and the improvement in his condition since he has been in Boroughbridge Manor. They are all very happy to talk to me and help me with any concerns I may have.

I have no other choice but to take my wife to Boroughbridge Manor Care Home because of the severity of her Alzheimer's condition. She would not respond to me feeding, washing and the necessary attentions that I was trying to apply to her. She lost 1 and a half stones in weight and the care home was the only answer. Since her admission to this care home she has gained 4 and a half pounds in 6 days. The staff are absolutely first class. She is cared for by extremely competent and caring staff. She now has showers daily and is given clean clothes every single day. This is an extremely well run care home.

Hi, Thank you for your review. I'm really glad your experience has improved considerably. If you require any further assistance please do not hesitate to contact the home team.

My wife has been resident at Boroughbridge Manor for around 8 months now and my son and I (husband) have visited her nearly every week. We have been very impressed to see how well she has been looked after from the beginning. The staff at all levels are so helpful to her, kind and understanding. We could not wish for any better treatment of her. She is improving by having a number of people to talk to and to join in some activities which are well encouraged. We have had lunch with my wife there and lately on Xmas day which was most enjoyable. Overall Boroughbridge Manor together with staff, is a rather impressive establishment.

I am pleased with the care and support offered to my mum, the staff at Boroughbridge Manor treat my mother with dignity and sensitivity, the food is excellent and nutritious and her room is clean, fresh and tidy.

Review submitted from a Website Submission by Brian (Brother of Resident) on Tuesday 18 August 2015. Relates to August 2015.
When my brother reached the age of 65 he had to leave the home for disabled young people in which he had lived for 40 years. We had a long and depressing search to find a new home for him. Finding Boroughbridge Manor was a great relief. It was the first home we had looked at that had wide corridors and doors, suitable for my brothers electric wheel chair together with a well maintained and accessible garden. The manager at the time could not have been more helpful in settling my brother into his new home. A profile bed with ripple mattress was arranged and his sky television service set up.
Boroughbridge Manor has now been my brother's home for two years. During this time the home has been extensively redecorated and the communal areas refurbished giving a bright and open feeling to the home. A new manager has recently been appointed and she could not have been more helpful in dealing with day to day issues relating to my brother's care. We remain very happy with the services provided by the home.
