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 212 target 221 -9 min
Registered nurse minutes 45 target 44 +1 min

What residents said

An independent surveyor interviewed residents here face to face in 2025. These are the shares who answered "always" or "most of the time" — 79% across all 12 questions.

The lowest-scoring answer is marked, because it is usually the one worth asking about on a visit.
