Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
La Fonta is full of kind, warm, understanding and compassionate staff. NOTHING is too much trouble for the staff whether it be sitting and having a much needed chat with a resident, or making a cup of tea for a visiting family members. My grandma only spent 7 months at La Fontana, but in that time she
found peace, a sense of belonging and renewed joy in the community and for that I'll be forever grateful.

Firstly, the accommodation is very good. My husband receives super care at La Fontana. The staff are so friendly and helpful towards him, and towards me when I visit three times a week, so i regularly see what is going on.
He receives only minor medical treatment as needed and weekly visits from the
surgery ensure that any concerns are addressed.
There is a range of activities, even though he rarely takes part. and he is encouraged to participate.

My mother-in-law came to stay at La Fontana a couple of years ago, she stayed in a lovely en-suite room that over looked lovely gardens where we took walks in good weather.
From day one the staff were wonderful, kind caring and so compassionate, they always greeted with a smile. In the last weeks
that my mother-in-law was with us she was cared for with such love and tenderness.
Thank you to all the staff at La Fontana.

Mum spent two and a half years in La Fontana. She was so well looked after by everyone. She was treated with dignity, compassion, nothing was too much trouble.
The care and love that was given to her in her last days was unbelievable and very humbling. Everyone was amazing. Thanks to you all.

From the moment I walked into the reception at La Fontana, I felt cared for. The receptionist provides a warm welcome, which spreads throughout the whole building. My incle's bright stay in a large, well-equipped en-suite corner room overlooking the surrounding beautiful countryside was an experience
our family will treasure. La Fontana is a stunning building filled with compassionate, hardworking and dedicated staff. Every time our family visited, my uncle was being well cared for, his carers always made time to speak and in the end, went above and beyond to comfort and support us. Thank you, La Fontana.

Overall the staff and management of La Fontana are very helpful. The level of care is excellent and they do what they can to help with a smile and pleasant attitude. When there are particular times of difficulty, medical need/emergency they are very thorough and understand extremely well the regulations
and laws protecting both resident and family wishes (as in power of attorney). We cannot thank the management and staff enough for being so kind and welcoming, always willing to help when there are particular issues, willing to listen, understand and empathise. If there is anything we would change it's the language barrier from some staff but know all have a reasonable level of English.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
5 months ago my husband, who was bedridden with severe dementia, went to La Fontana for a month's respite care. It was soon evident that he was receiving excellent care and seemed happy, so he became a permanent resident. He was unable to make use of all the facilities but we had every confidence in
the care he received. He was monitored regularly and the staff were friendly, caring and attentive. They were always helpful and communicative. His room was very pleasant opening directly onto the gardens while the layout of the building means there are no stairs, lifts or long corridors which makes for a much more integrated and effective care system.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.557)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.557) out of 10 for La Fontana is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 14 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 4.636 for La Fontana is calculated as follows: ( (114 Excellents x 5) + (42 Goods x 4) + (9 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 165 Ratings = 4.636
  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 4.921 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for La Fontana is based on 14 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 76 registered maximum number of service users is 15.2. 14 Positive Reviews ÷ 15.2 = 0.921
  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.
