My brother-in-law is in this home, they take care of him in every way that is possible. We are very happy with the friendliness and warmth that we receive when we visit. All staff are very polite and caring and cannot do enough for us. The home smells lovely and fresh.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Forest Manor has proved most satisfactory and reliable in their care for my wife. She can be difficult at times but the staff are extremely competent at handling her.
The home she was in previously was snot anywhere near as good in their day to day care for her.
I can now leave her knowing that she
is in safe and competent hands.

My husband has been using the home for 5 months and he's extremely well cared for, the staff are great.
He has come on in leaps and bounds especially since he has had his own chair and can get out of his room more.

My mum has been a resident since Feb 2018. My mum has a very poor diet and I can't thank the staff enough for all the encouragement they give to her, always leaving out finger food and checks on her all the time.

My Father has been in Forest Manor care home for a little over a week and the care he has received has been so much more than we thought it would be. We were extremely apprehensive but both staff and management have surpassed our expectations. Forest Manor has been the best choice for my Father.

My brother has been a resident of Forest Manor for a number of years and is included as part of the family. We have a day out together every week which we enjoy, however, I have no reservations in leaving my brother in the warm, friendly and capable hands of all the staff employed. Thank you for the
opportunity for me to express my thanks in this review, I cannot praise them enough.

Current Review Score: 7.6 (7.598)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 7.6 (7.598) out of 10 for Forest Manor Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.1 out of 5 from 1 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 4.500 for Forest Manor Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (10 Excellents x 5) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 4.5
  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 3.098 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Forest Manor Nursing Home is based on 1 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 = 3
    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 51 registered maximum number of service users is 10.2. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 10.2 = 0.098
  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.
