Always met with a warm welcome when we come to Moss Park to visit. Staff always willing to share any information with us when we visit.
Special mention to the staff who make sure my sister has a sweet treat (which she loves) with her afternoon tea.
Activities provided by the home make it a great environment
and keep minds active.
Staff very patient and caring.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
It is not easy when a family member requires continuous care. there is a whole raft of emotions for the family as well as the new resident.
This awareness of the big picture has proven invaluable. The staff and management at Moss Park took the time to give me the reassurance and support needed to better
help myself as well as my father. In turn, this increased my confidence in the care given by Moss Park.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Excellent place with really nice and caring staff. Mum much improved since coming here. The staff keep me well informed of her condition. The food is excellent. The only downside is the amount it costs doesn't include things like toiletries.
Reply from Clare Sheehan, Careline Advisor at Moss Park Care Home

Thank you very much for taking the time to leave such a lovely review for Moss Park and your feedback will be shared with the team. Unfortunately, toiletries are not included in the cost of care and this should have been discussed with you prior to your loved one moving into the service and covered as part of the resident contract with the care home.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
From the moment we visited Moss Park with a view to moving my mother from another care home we immediately felt that this was the perfect fit for her and we have been proven right. It has a homely, family feel and the staff are all amazing. Within a matter of days, the staff knew exactly who my mother
was, what she enjoyed doing and what her interests were. Mum visibly relaxed as soon as she arrived where previously she had been very agitated and upset. Nothing is ever too much trouble, the care is second to none, everyone is always super busy but they still manage to do everything with a smile and a cheery disposition. We live on an island and so are unable to visit as much as we like which is hard but it makes it so much easier to bear knowing Mum is happy and in such good, caring hands. I would also say that the communication is fantastic.

My mum has been at Moss Park for 12 months now and I can say that in all that time she has been incredibly well looked after. The staff are lovely, friendly and competent. I have peace of mind that she is in the best place that fits with her needs.

We have found Moss Park to be the best thing to happen for our mum and family. The staff cannot do enough for our mum and have made her feel as at home as she could be. We are always made to feel welcome at any time we visit and have no worries approaching staff in anything. We are very lucky they could
take our mum at a very difficult time and it’s been a pleasure to see the improvement in her despite a devastating diagnosis of dementia.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Father has been a resident in Mosspark for several years now. He failed to settle in any of the previous homes he was in and is now happy and content in Moss Park. He is well cared for and he thoroughly enjoys the food and there is plenty for him to take part in if he wishes. This is reassuring for
me as I don’t live locally. The manager and staff are easy to contact if I have any queries and they also are quick to get in touch with me as needed. I would recommend Moss Park to anyone looking to have a family member to be cared for in a homely and caring environment.

My dad has been in Moss Park since April 2023. On arrival the staff couldn’t have been any better in getting my dad settled in and getting him involved in activities, getting out in the garden, out for a run in the bus and on the bike around the village which he enjoys. All the staff are great, friendly,
very welcoming always ask if you’d like tea etc on visiting. Always very clean and tidy and the gardens are lovely too. I’d just like to thank everyone at Moss Park for taking great care of my dad.

Moss Park Care Home has been entrusted with the care of my sister.
I will be eternally grateful to all the staff who have taken the time to really get to know her. Each visit I make, comforts me to watch the interaction between them.
It is very obvious, this is a team of caring, dedicated and compassionate
people.
When we find it difficult or simply impossible to give our loved ones the care they require, it is very difficult to hand that responsibility to strangers. So I cannot adequately express my thanks to everyone at Mosspark for not being ‘strangers’ and for looking after my sister x

They took great care of residents throughout the pandemic which was a relief. There are plenty of activities done with residents in and out of the home/garden. Staff have a great rapport with residents, which creates a wonderful atmosphere. The staff/manager keep you updated. There's a Social Media
page to see pictures and it's not available except to residents' families which is reassuring. Keep up the good work.

The last two years have been very challenging, especially for the care homes, staff and family members.
Moss Park have been exceptional, keeping us updated with restrictions and regulations.
Everyone has felt the impact of COVID but if there was a way to contact, in any way with, your family member,
Moss Park made it possible.
A great big thank you to all staff at Moss Park!

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.599)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.599) out of 10 for Moss Park Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 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 4.599 for Moss Park Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (119 Excellents x 5) + (45 Goods x 4) + (13 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 177 Ratings = 4.599
  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 Moss Park 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 40 registered maximum number of service users is 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.
