A very warm welcome at Mortain on each of my visits to see my neighbour who has now been a resident at Mortain for 2 years. We share time in the Bistro with complimentary coffee and cake, spoilt for choice. The staff are so friendly and the management team have always been so helpful and caring. My
neighbour is settled, happy and very well cared for.

Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
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.
Reply from Feedback Team, Feedback at Barchester Mortain Place Care HomeThank you for taking the time to leave your review which is a much lower score than we would like to see.

Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
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.

Mum is well cared for at Mortain Place Care Home. In January she lost a lot of weight, picked up by the carers in their regular checks. They now make sure Mum eats her meals and are giving her regular protein shakes. Mum put on half of the lost weight within a week.

The surroundings are very pleasant, and the building looks impressive from the outside. Security for the residents is high, staff seem to be well trained, and are polite, very helpful and adaptable. Meals are good in quality and surroundings, and the accommodation is very clean and appropriate to the
circumstances. Highly recommended.

I was very apprehensive about sending my mum into a care home at such a young age. How wrong I was! Everyone is so accommodating, not just with my mother but with me also. I am always updated regularly on how she is getting on and have always been made to feel welcome, after all, it is my mother's home
now.

Review from Ros R (Daughter of Resident) published on 20 October 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum and I greatly appreciate the recent changes in her dedicated memory loss/early dementia care unit. The staff no longer rotate their duties throughout the other specialised areas and can now create a family atmosphere for a maximum of fourteen residents. The difference in my mum's mood, her sociability
and her participation is apparent. The staff are able to know her better, she now recognises them and her fellow residents. The extra individual care and the introduction of appropriate stimulating activities have made a huge difference to her daily living "in the moment". I now leave, after my regular visits, full of confidence that my mum's care is of the highest quality and with the knowledge that I will be informed of any deterioration in her health or well-being. This recent month of positive change has greatly reduced my concerns for my much-loved mother.

I was not looking forward to the day when my mother stayed for respite, but the staff and facilities are amazing. Everyone gives her the time and understanding which makes her feel safe, comfortable and happy, so much so that she is now considering residence full time. Thank you to all the staff for
making this a smooth and caring process.

My father lived at Mortain Place for 16 months through the pandemic until his medical needs meant that he required intensive nursing care. The modern design of the building together with the staff's attitudes and experience helped my father settle in quickly and provided support for me during a very
difficult time in our lives.

My husband and I chose Mortain Place for our relative because of our previous experiences (the resident's husband had respite care here).
We have not been disappointed by our choice as our relative is very happy here and extremely well looked after.
Reply from Joshua Permain, Home Services Advisor at Barchester Mortain Place Care HomeThank you for completing a review for Mortain Place. We are delighted to hear that your relative is very happy here and you feel that moving to Mortain Place was the correct decision.

Review from S T (Daughter of Resident) published on 30 March 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5
The staff are amazing, but there aren't enough staff to deal with the needs of the residents. Entertainment is lacking to keep everyone suitably occupied and many are walking around with not a lot to do. We have repeatedly emailed and don't get any replies from management. Many relatives have mentioned
about the outside area upstairs, it was assured that there would be things like bird feeders, plants to tend to and suitable outdoor seating. This hasn't happened, currently chairs with no arms to push up from, hard benches with no cushions and a slippery decking floor don't work well with people with mobility issues. It was mentioned that there would be piped music in the corridors linked to a smart speaker. This has never happened. I can't see how a speaker system (or mobile speaker) linked through the corridors and dining rooms can't be added? The community sports facility across the road are a shining example of what Mortain Place could be like and the home should link with them.
Reply from Joshua Permain, Home Services Advisor at Barchester Mortain Place Care HomeThank you. We are fortunate within Barchester that we have a very robust dependency analysis tool that enables us to ensure that staffing is in accordance with the needs of the residents. The only difficulty that arises is when residents reach the threshold to requiring dementia nursing needs as this can then cause anomalies. This is also the case when providing life enrichment activities and meaningful occupation, but we always work with the residents and loved ones to support them. Unfortunately, one of the outside space areas did have a leak, which the maintenance team have been repairing, therefore we have been waiting for the better weather to come into play before works could be completed to enable our residents to enjoy this area. We are optimistic that this will soon be the case. However, it was lovely to see our residents in Memory Lane enjoying Mother’s Day activities in our other outside space upstairs but we will always work together in partnership with our families.

Mum has been in respite care for two weeks and planning on staying on as she loves it so much. She is treated with great care and respect by all staff members and is always dressed in fresh clean clothes. The level of personal care is of an excellent standard and all of mums needs are taken into account.
Carers are always happy to talk to me about mum which is very reassuring for me and the family.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.931)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.931) 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 35 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 35 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 4.931 for Barchester Mortain Place Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (391 Excellents x 5) + (25 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 418 Ratings = 4.931
  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 35 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 35 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.
