My 97-year-old mother was admitted to Meyrick Rise Care Home in October. I have found the staff to be professional, friendly and helpful in all aspects. Without a doubt, the Home is modern, clean, tidy with excellent facilities. The residents are encouraged to participate in the many activities that
are organised in the main lounge, plus there is a cinema, hairdressing salon and small chapel on site. The restaurant provides good quality food that seems to be enjoyed by all. All the management and staff go out of their way to ensure the residents get the best possible care and I have nothing but praise for their efforts. Without a shadow of a doubt, this is a very well run Care Home and have I no hesitation in recommending to others.
Reply from Justine Cowell, BDM at Kingsman House Care Home

Thank you very much for your lovely comments. We are keen to ensure your mother is as happy as possible and yesterday enjoyed a lovely walk into town with one of our activity coordinators. She had a lovely smile on her face on her return and next time they go they are planning coffee at Debenhams!

We appreciate your recommendation and thank you for it.

What struck us was the friendly environment of Meyrick Rise and the desire to provide a caring service by all the staff. The immediate impression is that the home communicates well at all levels and is willing to develop the standards of care being provided. When I have called I have always received
a call back which gives confidence that they take a high level of interest in the residents. It’s good to hear staff themselves talk well of evident teamwork at Meyrick Rise the desire to set ever high standards.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Not having known of this care home before my father in law was admitted, I was very impressed with the high quality of service provided.
The friendly atmosphere and attention to detail impressed me.
My husband and I, as well as other relatives, speak very highly of the care home.
As to be expected,
my father in law initially wanted to be back in his own home, but due to his physical health, was unable to.
He very soon adapted to the care home and the remaining days of his life were happy and comfortable.
The staff are magic!
There is no doubt that due to the superb care he received it extended his life way beyond what was expected by several months.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Our mum has come here for respite and due to her circumstances will need to stay. She has never wanted to live in a care facility so it has been a hard decision but we have found this team so supportive! The carers are lovely always smiling and wanting to do all they can. The management are exceptional
with suggesting ideas, follow-up plans and support. My mum has settled better than I ever thought she would and it has really taken some stress form us. The place is clean and comfortable and homely. The food has a variety and of a good standard.
We like that the residents are encouraged to socialise and join in but can have peace in their own rooms or gardens. I would stay here.

This care home is a lovely and friendly place to go. I am always made welcome by all of the staff and they are happy to help you. My grandmother has never been so happy. The last care home she was in I would give 1 star and Meyrick Rise, I would give 5 stars.
I would not fault this care home by appearance
or staff. This is a like a 5-star hotel, but better.

From the initial contact and throughout my mother's stay at Meyrick Rise, all the staff showed the greatest care and professionalism towards my mother (and other residents). She has enjoyed her period of respite care and leaves in much better health than when she arrived.
Reply from Justine Cowell, BDM at Kingsman House Care Home

Thank you, John, for your very kind words, We are so happy that your mum had a great time with us and look forward to her next stay. She was a delight to care for and hope that she will come back and visit us again soon, even if it is just to pop in for coffee. I know our residents would love to see her again, she would be very welcome!

She has now got to the point of needing a care home and I had no hesitation in reserving her a place here.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My late Father spent his last 7 weeks at Meyrick Rise. Initially, they weren't sure if they could manage someone who was very ill and sometimes displayed difficult behaviour. Despite these understandable initial concerns they formulated a plan with us and dad's medical team and ensured it was acted
upon. Throughout this short time, up to and including his death, all the staff were extremely warm, caring, friendly and always respectful to his and our requests.


The building and grounds are also lovely and its a great central location in Bournemouth.


I would highly recommend it.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My mother entered the home for a week's respite while we (her carers) went on holiday. When we returned, she had contracted a UTI and we were unable to take her back to her home where she lived alone. The home was very sympathetic and agreed to keep my mum until we could find her a permanent place.
The staff were wonderful and gave my mum a lot of attention and care. Despite her erratic behaviour caused by the UTI the staff were understanding and did their best to ensure she was safe and well. I would recommend Meyrick Rise to anyone as a good care home for both respite and permanent care. We owe a big thank you to Meyrick Rise.
Reply from Justine Cowell, BDM at Kingsman House Care Home

Thank you so much for your kind words, we were so happy to be able to help you in your time of need and she was a lovely lady to care for, picking up on her UTI early gave us the chance to sort things out for her with her GP very early in her stay. We wish all of you the best for the future.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My family and I were very pleased with the way my Mother was treated whilst she was a resident in Meyrick Rise recently.
She was admitted from hospital for end-of-life care and was treated with the utmost respect and dignity at all times. Mum was fond of the carers and nurses, although she herself
was not always cooperative when they were trying to care for her!


As a family, we were always welcomed into the home and the staff did all they could to make us feel at ease whilst visiting Mum who was deteriorating fairly rapidly.
Nobody minded what time of day we visited and how long we stayed, this ensured that those of us who work could come and go freely, fitting the visits in with our work commitments.


I would certainly recommend this care home to other families who face the same situation as we did. We always got the impression the staff looking after Mum did genuinely care about her and where trying to make sure that her last few weeks were as comfortable and pain-free as possible.

I have visited my friend today in Meyrick Rise and I have not seen her for some time. She is absolutely blossoming in the home, she has been treated very well by all the staff, the food is lovely, and she is kept busy with a whole host of activities. When I visited yesterday they were playing scrabble
on a huge board which was the size of a person! She tells me that one of her friends in the home recently went swimming which the home organised for her as a wish. I honestly am so happy to have visited yesterday. My mind has been completely put at rest. I have to thank the staff for making me so welcome too.

In every possible area, Meyrick Rise was excellent.
It appeared more like a hotel (with care) than a care home.
All staff, food, comfort and care could not be better.

We have found Meyrick Rise very friendly and welcoming. It was with an element of anxiety that we had to bring our mum to respite care. However, these anxieties were quickly allayed and mum is happily settled and has improved in outlook and demeanour since arriving.
We feel as a family very confident
at leaving mum here as we know and have seen the excellent care she receives from the nurses, carers activities ladies and cleaners. They all pay attention to detail and ensure mum is safe and happy. Many Thanks

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.913)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.913) out of 10 for Kingsman House 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 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 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 4.913 for Kingsman House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (246 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 264 Ratings = 4.913
  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 Kingsman House Care Home is based on 22 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 73 registered maximum number of service users is 14.6, which has been reached with 22 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.
