I am very impressed to see the smiling faces of staff and admin staff willing and ready to help. The place is clean and rooms are well lit.
The temple is excellent and there is always some sort of religious reading and songs are played. It is a great place for an old aged and lonely person.
In summer
it is a joy to see disabled old folks gathered in the garden and doing light physical exercise. To see them sitting in the open air and with birds flying around makes me feel it is a good quality of care given.

We were initially reluctant to move our mum into a nursing home. After a few weeks, however, it is clear that we could not provide the support at home that she now needs and receives at Karuna Manor. The management and staff are very helpful and caring towards our mum. Our family is also made very welcome
when we visit.

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.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.996)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.996) out of 10 for Karuna Manor is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 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 4.996 for Karuna Manor is calculated as follows: ( (227 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 228 Ratings = 4.996

  • 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 Karuna Manor is based on 19 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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, which has been reached with 19 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.
