Over the past six months, the cleanliness of Mum's room has improved enormously. I think the staff do a tremendous job, given the restraints in numbers.

Over the years that I have been visiting my husband, I have observed that the staff are always kind and supportive and patient with all the clients. I am treated with respect and they endeavour to give me as much information as they are able.
They are generous with their time and seem to possess an
enormous amount of patience and cheerful disposition.

Happy that my mother is cared for with consideration and the care she deserves. Her health has been steady and level whilst her needs for attention also appear good. Occasionally though personal attention to dress and hair can be lacking.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I cannot speak highly enough of the care my mother receives at Wilton Manor Care Home. She is well looked after by the staff who all call her by her name and go out of their way to interact with her despite her being non-communicative. Her needs are regularly reviewed and any changes implemented. The
facilities at the home are modern and well maintained and include a residents' lounge, garden and an ensuite bedroom. The staff are always happy to deal with my enquiries or to ring me with any concerns. My mother has had to be hospitalised twice this year and each time the situation has been dealt with swiftly and professionally. There are always plenty of activities available to residents and visitors which clearly bring pleasure to all concerned.

Good, clean premises with a large car park. Welcoming, helpful staff throughout. My friend's room was clean and well-appointed. The staff knew him well and were friendly towards him. The facilities we saw looked good. (We went out for a drink to a local pub on a staff member's recommendation - good
choice!) Altogether very positive about the place, the care and medical support my friend is getting.

My mother has experienced no problems since moving into this home and any teething problems were quickly sorted. There is always somebody around to answer any questions you may have and we are kept up to date with any problems regarding Mum's health.
The maintenance team were only too pleased to help
with making her room more like home, with the fixing of display shelves and photos etc.
The garden is always well maintained and the home is very welcoming to everyone.

From the initial talks with the manager about Mum moving into the home, up to the present, the dedication and care from the staff has been outstanding. The team is like having new family for Mum and she has really enjoyed the tea dances and other activities. She doesn't have to feel lonely any more
(even though we visited often, she still did feel lonely in her flat previously).
When it was her 100th birthday in January, the staff were all brilliant, helping with the celebrations.
Thank you.

My Mum and Dad were both residents in Wilton Manor for over a year until they passed away within weeks of each other recently. The care and attention they were given and shown by all the staff, were second to none. They felt comfortable and treated it as a home from home. I was also made to feel very
welcome on my regular visits. I have no hesitation in recommending Wilton Manor to future users.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.732)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.732) out of 10 for Wilton Manor Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 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 4.732 for Wilton Manor Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (133 Excellents x 5) + (44 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 179 Ratings = 4.732
  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 Wilton Manor Care Home is based on 15 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 69 registered maximum number of service users is 13.8, which has been reached with 15 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.

I have been working for Bupa for 7 years. Born and bred in Southampton, I am a family man and enjoy spending time with my children, cycling, arranging fishing trips for our residents and hearing all about their life stories. I have worked for 17 years in the catering business across hotels and pubs, but moved to Wilton Manor as I wanted to support those in care to have food they love and enjoy. Here I enjoy working with fresh ingredients to make fresh food for the residents to make a varied menu for everyone to enjoy.
