I really cannot praise Cherry Blossom enough. There are not enough words to say how wonderful this place has been for my Dad in the final months of his life. Both myself and my Dad have been treated with the utmost respect, kindness, love and dignity. The staff have all been amazing. His room and bed
made a perfect haven and all of his needs have been attended to without delay. If I ever find myself needing care then this is the place I would choose to be. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

After a poor experience from another care home provider, we contacted Cherry Blossom Manor. They reassured us that they could meet Dad's needs and that whatever happened they could manage. They were true to their word. He spent six months at Cherry Blossom Manor and settled in quickly. The standards
of care are exceptional. There is a very relaxed feeling to the care home and the staff are very friendly with nothing being too much trouble.
Unfortunately, Dad passed away recently. We asked that CBM manage his needs as he did not want to go to hospital unless absolutely unavoidable. Throughout his final days, the nursing team were amazing along with all of the staff team. Not only did they give wonderful care to Dad but they were also very supportive to his family. I would highly recommend CBM.

Reply from Gigi Despojo, GM at Barchester Cherry Blossom Manor

Hi Neal, your words will really encourage the whole team to continue to provide premium care to all our residents and their families. I will make sure that this is shared to each of my staff. I wish you and your family well and with a grateful heart, thank you for trusting us for the care of your dad.

Most of the time the staff are very good with the care and attention given to my husband. They are usually cheerful and considerate. There has, however, been the odd occasion when there was an incident that left my husband having a fall and unable to press his falls alarm due to the fact it was up on
the wall out of his reach.

We cannot thank Cherry Blossom and all the wonderful staff enough. We always felt welcomed and very much appreciated the care and support both my mother and we received during a difficult and emotional time.
The home itself is delightful - light, airy, well/thoughtfully decorated with artefacts and
pictures.
Staff are amazing, caring, smiling, patient people who make my mother feel happy, settled and cared for.

Reply from Gigi Despojo, GM at Barchester Cherry Blossom Manor

We cannot thank you enough for the kind and generous comment you have given to the team. I will make sure that they are aware of this, so they feel more inspired and encourage to continue loving what they do. It is good to know that your mother's short stay with us was a happy experience and that she felt cared for.

My journey with Cherry Blossom started with a desperate phone call - respite care.
The team were supportive, pro-active, caring and polite. The support they provided to family and my parent could not have been better. Allowing access by phone to put our family's mind at rest was excellent. A big thank
you to all the staff.

My father arrived at Cherry Blossom Manor at very short notice in April 2019, he has late-stage vascular dementia.
After the initial settling in, issues he has now established a simple daily routine and seems content with his new life/home at Cherry Blossom Manor.
He has made friends with other residents,
joined in sing-a-longs and has been on a day trip. There are other regular daily activities he has yet to sample. The friendly staff are always on hand to talk to him and help with day to day tasks such as washing/shaving/dressing/eating hi meals. He is well thought of by the staff who look after him.
I am happy my father is in a safe and caring environment and am pleased with the level of care he is currently receiving.

The residents at Cherry Blossom Manor are well looked after and I would gladly have family here. The building is well maintained with a lovely cafe with what you need for a visit. The gardens are kept lovely. The staff are all very friendly. The only down side is that it is very expensive to stay in
any care home now.

Both my father and my mother moved into Cherry Blossom Manor in January 2018. My mother suffers from dementia and my father has vascular Dementia following a brain haemorrhage.
My father recently passed away and the general care and the nursing care he received at Cherry Blossom Manor was excellent,
particularly in his last few days. Likewise, the care my mother receives is excellent, due to the dementia, she is anxious a lot of the time and forgets that my father has died. The carers do a good job of keeping her as calm as possible.

We would like to thank you for your amazing care of mum in the 3 weeks she was in Cherry Blossom. She was looked after in a lovely, caring way and with dignity at the end. I would like to thank the doctor on duty on 27/28th February - it was exceptional. To the manager - behind every great leader is

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.883)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.883) out of 10 for Barchester Cherry Blossom Manor is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 30 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.883 for Barchester Cherry Blossom Manor is calculated as follows: ( (326 Excellents x 5) + (26 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 360 Ratings = 4.883

  • 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 Barchester Cherry Blossom Manor 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:

    • 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 77 registered maximum number of service users is 15.4, which has been reached with 30 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.
