Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father has been in Mortain for 19 months and from the start was made to feel very welcome and at home. The staff all went out of their way to ease him into his new way of life in a care home. He had recently been bereaved. I’ve never had any cause for concern over his health or well-being. His room
is nice, comfortable and spotlessly clean. His sometimes fussy meal requirements, and constant need for 'a cuppa’ are cheerfully fulfilled. The staff, in particular the senior carers, are all very kind and personable. They treat my father as an individual, not just as one of the collective residents. His wishes are respected, and his dignity is maintained. My queries have always been dealt with effectively and efficiently, and the manager is generally always available. It is with sadness that we’ve got to move my father to a nursing home. My sister and I, as well as our dad, are sorry to say goodbye to the care team at Mortain and I thank you all for taking such kind care of him.
Reply from Jenna Fowler, Home Services Advisor at Barchester Mortain Place Care Home

Thank you so much for your kind words. We were sorry to see your father leave us but hope he has settled well into his new home.

My mum was here for almost 4 years. The first two years were great. Fabulous staff and management. Then went downhill. All caring and loving staff left, and management changed. No trust at all in the care and well-being of my mum. Meetings and conversations had with management were ignored or turned
around to make our complaints look like lies. My mum had 3 safeguards placed on her, then a 4th one put in place up to the day we finally got her out of there, to a caring properly managed dementia care home. My mum had injuries not reported, and care and hygiene were poor. Good carers left and would never return. They were disgusted by what had evolved, from a lovely place to a nightmare. Constant worries that my mum would be okay each day. No quality of care or trust. Sadly we did have it in the beginning but was totally blown apart these last 18 months. Don't be fooled by the nice deco. It's the care and empathy that counts.

My dad had to enter a care home a few weeks ago and has found it fairly difficult to adjust. Any concerns or issues have been addressed and resolved very promptly and he is now settling in well. All the staff, management, admin, carers, housekeeping and entertainment etc have been wonderful. I'm glad
to say that Dad is now enjoying life again after a few years of struggling on his own in his own home.
Reply from Catherine Brewster, General Manager at Barchester Mortain Place Care Home

Thank you so much for your lovely review. It is a pleasure looking after Dad. He is thriving and as you said enjoying life here at Mortain place. He is getting involved in all aspects of life in our home and it is lovely to see him so happy.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum went to Mortain Place in early January for some respite following an illness over Christmas. Soon after her arrival, it became clearer that she was very unwell and in fact, had terminal cancer that was only diagnosed while she was there. We are a large family of medics and Mum was a retired nurse,
so we recognise good care when we see it. We had not expected Mum to need end-of-life care there but faced with this diagnosis, the team at Mortain Place said they would look after her until she died. I cannot thank the team there enough for the support they gave Mum. Everyone was incredibly kind and Mum was looked after with dignity, laughter and kindness throughout. We are a large family and Mum had lots of friends, all of whom wanted to see her. This was all made possible by the team and nothing was too much bother. Thank you all for looking after Mum and us. We will never forget your kindness. Barchester, please look after those staff, as the home is nothing without them.
Reply from Catherine Brewster, General Manager at Barchester Mortain Place Care Home

Thank you so much for your kind words. It was our pleasure to look after Mum until she passed. We pride ourselves on treating those we care for with dignity and kindness. We have passed your comments on to our team.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My aunt has been a resident at Mortain Place over the last 2 months, as respite following a fall at home. From my first phone call, the staff and management team have been very responsive and my aunt has received great care and attention, giving me complete peace of mind. Any queries or concerns I had
were dealt with quickly. The staff have been excellent helping my aunt with personal care, while she had a broken wrist. She was always in great spirits whenever I visited and was always up and dressed. She has enjoyed the food and has had chiropody care and a haircut whilst being a resident. I'm very grateful indeed for the care and attention my aunt has received and would certainly recommend Mortain Place.
Reply from Catherine Brewster, General Manager at Barchester Mortain Place Care Home

Thank you so much. Peace of mind is so important when placing a loved one into care. We are pleased we were able to give you that. Yes please do feel to recommend us to others.

Anyone with good ethics and morals would not work in Mortain Place. Anyone working in the care industry should have principles of right and wrong. All the staff that have left, and there are many know what Mortain Place is like, and residents that have moved out are having a greater quality of life.
Having a Manager who is not fit for purpose permeates throughout so any hope of a well-led team is minimal.
My Mum has CQC Safeguarding her well-being, keeping her safe from harm and neglect until Mum leaves.
Don’t be fooled by the decor and sales pitch, there are good care homes out there, this is not one of them. Protect your loved ones. The latest CQC also highlights many concerns in this Home.

My mother has been both a respite and now a dementia resident and during all of her stay we found the staff both caring and attentive. Mum took her time to settle in and presented a challenge to the staff. This challenge was met with professionalism and a high level of support. As a family, we have
absolutely no regrets in selecting this establishment. Indeed, we have nothing but the highest praise for all of the staff from management to housekeeping.

Not having gone through this experience with my own parents, I have found it a strange time but looking at it as a support for my wife. I can say without fear of contradiction that my 'mum' is receiving the best care possible. I have watched the way she has been looked after with admiration by all the
care home staff. Nothing is too much for them to do to make my 'mum' comfortable and well looked after.

My grandmother received absolutely dreadful care that was so neglectful as to be considered abuse. No dignity was given and was never helped in getting up, washed and dressed. Bedding was always soiled and staff scarce. Grandmother has settled in brilliantly in her new care home and has got a lot better
cognitively since she left Mortain Place.

Whilst many of the staff were Ok, the management was very poor. My Mother in Law was often left in her nightclothes throughout the day.
The record keeping was often incorrect, for instance, cot sides were marked as OK when she didn’t even have any.

My grandmother was at Mortain Place until recently when we had to move her away as her basic needs weren't being met.
The needs of individuals living with dementia were also not being met.
From our experience some of the care staff were good but others clearly had a lack of training caring for patients
with dementia.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.919)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.919) out of 10 for Barchester Mortain Place Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 30 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 30 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 4.919 for Barchester Mortain Place Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (332 Excellents x 5) + (23 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 358 Ratings = 4.919
  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 Barchester Mortain Place Care Home is based on 30 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 80 registered maximum number of service users is 16, which has been reached with 30 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.

I have completed many different training modules, but most recently 'prevention of falls' which makes me a 'Fall Fighter' within the home, I am passionate about this, and promote it within the workplace.


In my spare time, I enjoy reading and spending time with my Grandchildren.
