Review from Vivienne D (Daughter of Resident) published on 4 February 2022 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5
The staff in the care home are really lovely. The room is a bit shabby and could do with a freshen up. The staff have coped very well with the Covid outbreak and the care manager has been brilliant in letting us see our relative.
Reply from Diane Kerwin, Hospital Liaison Team Administrator at Moss Park Care Home

Thank you for your lovely comments about Moss Park and the positive experiences you have had when visiting your relative. I am very sorry that your relative's bedroom appears shabby, I have asked the Home Manager to contact you directly to arrange for the bedroom to be decorated as a matter of urgency.

Review from Rhona R (Daughter of Resident) published on 21 January 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5
My mum has been in this care home for three months. The care staff have been excellent, kind, and helpful, and I can not fault them considering the difficult circumstances they are working under.
Any medical problems are dealt with very promptly. I am kept informed of any new issues.
My only issue
is the size of the bedrooms, they are very small. My mum likes to watch TV and there is no room to move her chair so that she can see the TV properly, she has to watch it at an angle. The downstairs part of the home is much nicer than the upstairs. These issues are not anything that the staff can do anything about but, the care company needs to bring it up to a better standard.
Reply from Diane Kerwin, Hospital Liaison Team Administrator at Moss Park Care Home

Thank you for your very positive comments regarding the standard of care and communication at Moss Park. The home manager will be in contact with you directly to discuss your mother's bedroom and any suggestions you may have that will help us improve the upstairs of the home.

Review from Jenni H (Daughter of Resident) published on 28 September 2020 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5
My recommendation would depend on individual need. Management and staff have been doing a great job during the pandemic and this should be recognised. I realise with the level of her dementia, Moss Park is the best place for my mother to be but I feel if there were less bedrooms enabling decent bathrooms
and larger bedrooms it would be much, much better. The food is fantastic and the chef also deserves individual recognition.

My mother-in-law is very well looked after by the staff and management of Moss Park. The food is excellent and activities are varied and very regular. During the recent Covid-19 pandemic, Moss Park took every precaution to keep their residents and staff safe. For that we the family, are very grateful.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My wife has been a resident at Moss Park for about two years. I am very pleased with the way she is looked after. The food is good, the staff are kind, considerate and always make me feel welcome. When I visit, I know my wife is well-loved, after which is a great comfort as my home is 50 miles away.
I phone every day I am not visiting and the staff are always very pleasant. I cannot praise the home and staff enough - God bless them all.

The care my mum is receiving at Moss Park is excellent. The staff provide care and support 24/7 and at all times, the residents are treated with not only dignity but also patience and understanding. Nothing is a problem - whatever she needs or wants is provided. The food is beyond excellent and it is
all homemade. I would not hesitate to recommend Moss Park to anyone needing similar care or treatment.

Excellent, compassionate care. Each resident is treated with respect and regard to individual needs and preferences. The manager is highly visible in the home and always available to us if we have any concerns. Sometimes I think the home could be a little cleaner but overall, we are very happy.

A close family friend has been admitted to Moss Park Care Home. He is now getting the first class attention he so badly needed.
The change in him is like night and day.
Many thanks to all concerned.

I moved here about one month ago and find the facility meets my needs, the food is good and plentiful. The staff are helpful, friendly and kind. If there were automatic doors it would be the icing on the cake.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother was moved to this care home in December 2018 from another home. We were a bit nervous of the move. When we did arrive the manager had put us at ease. The home is very homely which is what you want for a family member, and also get the added bonus of first class nursing care. The staff have
been very good to my mother and attend to all her needs. She enjoys the food and all the home baking. Any time the Doctor changes her medication we receive a phone call to tell us. There is always something going on, musicians, plays etc.

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.
