Why the ratings are broken out

Most homes land in much the same place on the overall star: 69% hold four, and none holds fewer than three. The four measures above, and the detail below, are where homes actually differ from one another.

Staffing

Every home has a target for care minutes per resident per day, set for that home. This is what it reported delivering.

Total care minutes per day 215 target 233 -18 min
Registered nurse minutes 50 target 46 +4 min

What residents said

An independent surveyor interviewed residents here face to face in 2026. These are the shares who answered "always" or "most of the time" — 87% across all 12 questions.

Staff treat me with respect 87%
I feel safe here 95%
Staff are kind and caring 96%
I get the care I need 96%
Staff know what they are doing 77%
