From day one my husband was treated with the utmost kindness and respect. Everyone, from the manager, nurses, carers, cleaners, laundry ladies, reception are lovely, kind, loving and caring people. The atmosphere was always warm and friendly. I knew my husband was in the best possible place to end his
life on Earth. Cherry Tree Nursing Home is positioned in a lovely quiet area, the grounds are lovely and beautifully kept.

Beautifully kept rooms, conservatory and gardens. Staff always willing to help if necessary. If you asked for any assistance nothing was too much trouble. Reception staff very helpful and always sought to assist in any way they could. My husband had terminal liver cancer and he was well looked after
whilst staying at Cherry Tree Nursing Home. I cannot find fault with his very accommodating nursing home.

Cherry Tree Nursing Home was excellent throughout the 7 years my Father was a resident. The carers were skilled, kind, and friendly and handled the COVID-19 epidemic very well. We were immediately contacted if there was any problem.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our Dad moved into Cherry Tree under palliative care after spending six weeks in hospital. We could tell from the first time we saw it that this was a perfect place for Dad to spend his final days. Dad was only there for a few days, but from the moment he arrived, he was treated with love and dignity.
All of the staff, from the manager, through the nurses, carers, caretaker, and other support staff, were cheerful, friendly, helpful, and caring, towards Dad's family as well as to Dad himself. Nothing was too much trouble and they also helped us through the difficult time immediately after Dad passed away. We took comfort in the fact that Dad spent his final days in beautiful surroundings being cared for by such a lovely group of people. Thank you.

Cherry Tree Nursing Home was all we could hope for for our Dad. The staff from manager to caretaker all seemed to work on the same page with the resident's best interests at heart. The care provided for Dad was wonderful and he settled in quickly, making friends with the staff. The setting of the care
home was very peaceful and we were welcome to visit whenever was convenient for us.

Cherry Tree is a friendly, happy, and buzzing place to be. Lots of activities for the residents and visitors are always made to feel at home. My Mum spent over a year at Cherry Tree and was cared for by such thoughtful and caring staff. We all knew each other's names and it felt like a second home to
me. You all do a great job, keep up the good work!

Our daughter was only at Cherry Tree for a week before she died. From the beginning, the staff were very attentive to her needs and demonstrated kindness, sympathy, and efficiency. They were always on hand when needed both day and night and managed her last days skillfully.
Additionally, they were
very helpful and welcoming to visitors and the whole site was always clean and tidy. The gardens and the houses setting in the countryside were beautiful and calming for those in such tragic circumstances.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My about to be 90-year-old Father spent a wonderful 2 weeks in the Cherry Tree Nursing Home in Saunderton for rehabilitation following his replacement surgery. During his time there the care he received can only be described as tremendous. At all times he felt secure and highly supported and found the
team warm, nurturing, and most of all happy - a rare quality nowadays. It lifts the spirits to see smiling faces. Great care was taken to getting to know Dad and determining his special needs - especially related to his exercises and ensuring that he did them. The food and entertainment were also excellent. He loved all that he ate. He also loved the entertainment and the fun and laughter he had with the residents and staff. So much so that he plans to return when he is no longer able to live independently. The high standard of cleanliness and care is a credit to the whole team. Thank you.

Cherry Tree Nursing Home is set in beautiful grounds and the care and warmth of all the staff is wonderful. Our 101-year-old aunt spent her final days here and we were comforted to know that she was in such a homely and tranquil place and received such kind and attentive care. The receptionist greeted
us warmly and the manager gave us confidence with her kind approach. All the nursing and other staff are wonderful too. Our special thanks to you all.

My mother received the best possible care at Cherry Tree Nursing Home. The staff were attentive to her needs and strived to keep her comfortable. During this difficult time we, as a family, were kept fully informed and were offered tremendous support from all members of staff who were friendly and approachable
and immediately put us at ease. In her final days and hours we were treated with empathy and respect and we are very grateful for the care we were given.

My mother had spent almost four years at Cherry Tree Nursing Home. She was looked after by very caring staff. The standard of nursing and care was excellent. Everything about the home was excellent. When she died the end-of-life care was excellent too. I have no hesitation in recommending Cherry Trees
to my friends who have a loved one that needs round the clock care and nursing.

My mother spent her last few weeks here, she was cared for very well even though she had suffered a severe stroke. The staff were very caring and looked after her and the family visitors with kindness. At the end, the home staff looked after us all beautifully, nothing was too much trouble.

I found the carers to be extremely caring, professional and friendly. They built great rapport with my dear friend who could be difficult at times. They encouraged him to stay as mobile as possible until his last days and they tended his leg ulcers with great diligence. They were totally invested in
his wellbeing and he died peacefully and comfortable.

My father was very poorly when transferred to Cherry Tree Nursing Home. He was warmly welcomed and cared for sensitively and just how we would have wanted. The lady at the reception desk always welcomed my mother like family, and all the staff were calm and kind. The manager always made time for us,
and the nurses were so sensitive. The caseworkers were well-trained and kind.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.772)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.772) out of 10 for Cherry Tree Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 27 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 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 4.772 for Cherry Tree Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (252 Excellents x 5) + (47 Goods x 4) + (12 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 311 Ratings = 4.772
  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 Cherry Tree Nursing Home is based on 27 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 52 registered maximum number of service users is 10.4, which has been reached with 27 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.
