We were able to secure a place at Mountbatten for our very close friend. The manager personally went out to visit him to assess if she could meet all the criteria he required.
From day 1, the whole team, managers and even the directors were incredible.
Personal to him and his friends and family. Making
everyone feel welcome.
A real family feel. I witnessed first hand how the manager created a family environment with her team and how that was then shown to the residents.
The care our friend received was 100%, including the laughs, songs just popping into his room with a friendly smile.
It all made the biggest impact to the time he spent there.
Thank you all again for such a high and consistent level of care and love shown to him and us all!!

The Mountbatten nursing home is a small home with a good amount of staff. We visited a lot of homes in the area before deciding on this home and feel very lucky they had a bed available. Mum moved in in Feb 2025 and the room is very spacious with ceiling hoist and ensuite toilet. All the staff have
been very kind, friendly and caring towards not just my mum, their resident but also all of us who visit her. Nothing seems too much trouble and you are made to feel welcome. The staff also create a fun atmosphere and seem happy coming into work. The food looks lovely and my mum has no complaints and a good appetite. She is also offered drinks on a regular basis and assistance with eating and drinking on the days she needs it. The lounge area can be a little on the small side if all residence are downstairs with not much space for visitors, but there is a large conservatory that can be utilized and a lovely garden when the weather is suitable. Overall very happy with the care mum receives

My father recently died at Mountbatten and had spent the last two years having great care. The staff were caring and considerate and always greeted us with a smile. Two ladies deserve a special mention because of their dedication and cheerful disposition. Keep up the good work.

Current Review Score: 8.4 (8.375)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.4 (8.375) out of 10 for Mountbatten is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 2 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.5 out of 5 from 2 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.917 for Mountbatten is calculated as follows: ( (22 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 24 Ratings = 4.917

  • b) 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 3.458 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Mountbatten is based on 2 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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 = 3.125

    • ii) 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 30 registered maximum number of service users is 6. 2 Positive Reviews ÷ 6 = 0.333

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
