Click to show a breakdown of the Review Score
a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating of all Reviews over all time. For each review the Care Home / service is rated Excellent, Good, Satisfactory, Poor or Very Poor on a number of areas eg Staff, Management etc. The Care Home receives points for each rating as follows: Excellent = 5. Good = 4. Satisfactory = 3. Poor = 2. Very Poor = 1. These points are added up and then divided by the total number of completed ratings to generate the average rating.
The Average Rating of 4.828 for Karuna Manor is calculated as follows: ( (241 Excellents x 5) + (39 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 285 Ratings = 4.828
b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 12 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with 'Extremely Likely' or 'Likely' in answer to the question 'How likely are you to recommend this Care Home to friends and family if they needed similar care or treatment?'
The 5 points available are broken down as follows:
4 points are available for the first 5 Positive Reviews, 3 points for the first Positive Review and then 0.25 Points for each of the next 4 Positive Reviews.
1 point is available for reaching a target number of Positive Reviews based on 20% of the number of registered maximum number of service users. If the target is partially reached then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home with 50 registered maximum number of service users has a target of 10 Positive Reviews, if it has 10 or more Positive Reviews it will receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews will receive 0.7 points.
The 4.833 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Karuna Manor is based on 10 positive Reviews in the last 12 months and is calculated as follows:
3 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 = 4
Target of 12 positive Reviews (60 registered maximum number of service users ÷ 5). 10 Reviews ÷ 12 Target = 0.833
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

Karuna Manor has been a Godsend to our family. My father has been living with me for the past 50 years. My father is now 97 years of age and I have only recently determined that I am not able to provide for him the requisite level of care. This was of course very disturbing and demanding for me, but placing him at Karuna Manor has given him a new lease of life. The care team are so invested in their residents and the environment is a true 'home from home'.

Mother is settling in well at Karuna Manor compared to the previous care home as there are more residents who can communicate with each other. The daily event is the Temple and give her a chance to participate. The carers seem to be making a good effort to make sure the residents a take part in the activities.

My grandmother had her first massage in December last year. She felt so much better and relaxed, the lady who did the massage made sure she got the right pressure and took her time to understand what her needs were. Since then she has been having a massage fortnightly which has helped her to relax and sleep better.

My mother is a resident at Karuna Manor since April 2015. In a very short period, her overall well being has improved drastically thanks to care, compassion and respect from the staff. Her overall improvement has also been due to the dedication and engagement of the head of activities, who is constantly challenging the residents with new initiatives that encourage their mood, interaction and a feeling of being useful. He is constantly introducing activities that are suitable for residents and conducts with respect, care and compassion. He always makes time for his residents and never fails to disappoint them. One to treasure.
