Appleton Manor Care Home provides an excellent environment for my mum. The staff interactions with my mum are excellent. They always communicate any issues, concerns etc in a professional and timely manner. They always strive to improve the experiences for my mym and have vastly improved the social
activities which are excellent. I appreciate that they also organised a priest so my mums religious practices could be met.

After two hospital stays in quick succession and a rapid decline my lovely dad needed a higher level of care than his previous care home could provide. After much research and several visits to various other facilities, we knew as soon as we arrived at Appleton Manor that we had found the perfect home
for Dad to rest and, we hoped, recuperate. I cannot thank the staff and management enough for their care and professionalism. His room was lovely, so much so that some of his final words were him saying he loved the 'hotel in Portugal' that we had taken him to! Sadly Dad left us only two weeks and two days into his stay. Again, the kindness and compassion shown by everyone was incredible and we can never thank them all enough. Dad was where he needed to be in his final days, for which we will be eternally grateful.

The home has been a caring and supportive residence for my mum-in-law for the last four years. This has been of great comfort to my wife knowing that her mum is safe and well cared for. The staff have always engaged with us and Mum and the experience until her passing has been excellent in very challenging

I can't thank Appleton Manor enough for helping Mum settle in. The manager is so approachable, the cleaning staff (immaculate rooms), the catering team presenting pureed food so beautifully, the laundry team not only helping me find items of clothes when Mum first moved in but chatting to her and making
an effort to engage with Mum. The nursing team are so confident and lovely. The activities lady is exceptional too. Lots of little things that amount to a lot. Feel lucky we have Mum here.

My sister was admitted to the home in May 2019 and she passed away in December 2021. In all the time she was in their care I have found all the staff to be outstanding. Her care was very good. Not only that, they showed such care and respect to me. Always had smiles on their faces and I felt confident
that she was being looked after very well.

Although the last year has been difficult I’m very pleased with how all the staff have still given their first-rate care and attention to my father. It’s obviously hard to give a complete review due to all the restrictions in place but during my window visits, I’ve been able to assess how well looked
after dad is. Thank you to everyone.

My mother was admitted to Appleton Manor in March 2019, after her diagnosis of dementia. My partner and myself have always been made to feel very welcome by the friendly staff and manager. The home is very clean and well run, I am very satisfied that my mum receives the best of care. In these times
of the pandemic, we have found the hygiene and security measures to be first class, and we are confident that my mother will not be exposed to the Coronavirus. Overall, there is no reason to worry about the standard of care at Appleton Manor, we rate it very highly.

My mum had been in a care home before her deterioration and was admitted to a nursing home at short notice. I then looked around at different nursing homes and transferred my mum into the nursing wing of Appleton Manor. The first person my mum met put her at ease, made her feel safe and helped her settle
in. The room was immaculate and as it was quite large so we were able to bring a lot of my mum's possessions which made her feel at home. It also made it comfortable for the family to visit.
My mum needed quite intensive nursing care. She had a stroke several years ago and had gradually lost her speech and mobility. The manager and the carers showed kindness and empathy to my mum. The GP was very supportive, caring and approachable. Together they looked after my mum during her last weeks and I feel she was comfortable, safe in familiar surroundings, pain-free and nursed with love and kindness.
She died with dignity.

My mum-in-law was admitted to the home in May 2020 for Palliative Nursing Care. Sadly, but expected, she passed away on 16th July. The staff at Appleton Manor were angels with her. So caring, considerate and only ever showed her respect, and treated her with the dignity and compassion that she deserved.
I
was fortunate to spend lots of time with her in her latter days, and I was looked after just as well as she was. They provided me with a comfy recliner chair to sleep and copious amounts of tea/coffee, and I could have any meal if I chose to. Eight incredible people..... All deserve a special mention, but all who dealt with her did so in a kind caring manner.
I thank you all for making her comfortable in her time with you, and I thank you for keeping me satisfied that she was being well looked after.

This is an excellent care home, my mum (mother-in -law) was a resident at the home for 2 years. They not only cared for her, they cared about her, and for that, we will be forever grateful. Mum was treated with dignity, respect, professionalism and friendliness.
Communication between the home and ourselves
was excellent, we had peace and mind knowing mum was safe and was being looked after to a very high standard. All the staff was always there for us if we had any concerns, and we regarded them all as part of our family. The staff have had a lot to deal with at this very sad and uncertain time with the coronavirus, and are working very hard and managing to still do an excellent job, sending all our love and thanks to everyone.
Unfortunately, we lost Mum recently, and we would like to say a big thank you to the staff for sharing and helping us through mums last hours, and for that, we will be forever grateful to you all.

Mum has been at Appleton Manor since September 2019, and I have to say that the first time I walked through the door I felt welcomed and comfortable. After viewing many nursing homes, I just knew that this was the one for my mum. The building is clean, comfortable and bright, with lovely gardens. The
staff are warm and friendly and very approachable. The communication between families and staff is so open, we’re updated on all GP visits, medication changes and everything else that is important to mum and us as a family. During the ‘lockdown’ it’s obviously been difficult not being able to go in and see mum, but we have regular ‘face time’ chats and keep up to date with everything. Even though mum is on a very restricted diet, I see the meals being given to other residents, and they look really good! We just know that she’s receiving the best possible care.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.791)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.791) out of 10 for Appleton Manor Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 23 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 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 4.791 for Appleton Manor Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (221 Excellents x 5) + (47 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 273 Ratings = 4.791

  • 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Appleton Manor Care Home is based on 23 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 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • 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 59 registered maximum number of service users is 11.8, which has been reached with 23 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • 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.
