  • Woodlands Residential Care Home, Fleet
Woodlands is a thirty-nine-bedroom residential care home with an excellent reputation in the Fleet community for the consistently high standards of elderly care it achieves. The home was rated as 'Outstanding' by the CQC in April 2021. All the team are permanent, agency staff are never used ensuring strong personal relationships are formed between residents and team.

Trained carers provide 24-hour care and support for the residents, helping to support them in their chosen lifestyle choices and care needs. Residents' dignity and independence are respected at all times. There is a full activities and social programme for residents to participate and enjoy.

Outside, the home has large scenic gardens with a sheltered courtyard in the centre and an active gardening club. Elsewhere, there are level lawns, fish ponds and woodland with its own bluebell glade, all accessible by flat wheelchair friendly paths.

The residents are at the heart of the home, helping the chefs chose the menus and creating the activities programmes with the activities coordinator. Woodlands is a happy home, where the residents' happiness and welfare come first.

My aunt has been living at Woodlands Care Home for a year now, and she couldn't be happier. The staff are wonderfully caring and treat everyone like family, relatives included. Nothing is ever too much trouble for them, and their warmth really shines through.
There's always a wide variety of activities
and outings, which so many residents truly enjoy. The beautifully maintained gardens also bring a lot of joy to everyone. Woodlands provides not just care, but a genuine sense of community and home. I would not hesitate to recommend this beautiful home.

My mother has been a resident at Woodlands for 3 years now. Throughout her time there she has been very happy about the care she receives from everyone. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff who are there at a push of her button. At 102 yrs now she is more frail causing her care to be readjusted
and more closely monitored which the management have dealt with superbly. All the family feel very happy to have found this care home for her.

All the staff at Woodlands are very caring, approachable, friendly and supportive to us and our mother. We know that she is safe; her wellbeing and daily care are exceptional. They ensure she, along with all the other residents, has regular outings and, along with mental stimulation, etc on a daily
basis. We as a family have regular updates on how she is doing, and they are extremely approachable if we have any concerns or wish to have a discussion. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

I am very impressed with the care and attention to detail my aunt has received since recently moving to Woodlands. They made her feel very welcome on her arrival, listening carefully to her preferences and since then have been extremely helpful. They have also been very good at organising an early GP
review and giving my aunt several opportunities to go out on trips which she has enjoyed.

The staff are very caring and approachable when guidance/help is needed. The safety/security section was graded satisfactory due to a couple of nighttime instances with 2 different residents entering my mother's bedroom during the night, causing distress. The rooms are overall good, but could do with
plumper pillows on the bed.

I couldn't be happier with the care my parents receive from all the staff at Woodlands. Nothing is too much trouble! The staff are all very attentive, friendly and caring. Residents, relatives and friends alike, are all made to feel extremely welcome. There is a very cheerful atmosphere at Woodlands
and there are beautiful gardens to have a wander round, with seating dotted around if you fancy a rest under a shady tree. Lots of activities, chair exercises, go on during the day to keep minds and bodies active too. Food is lovely, they do BBQ's and afternoon teas as well. They have singers and entertainment and outings too. It really is an exceptional place. My parents are very happy there and I'm glad they are somewhere safe and all their needs are catered to by an extremely professional and caring team. Thank you all at Woodlands!

Warm, friendly welcome l asked for somewhere we could go and sit quietly as this was my first visit to the home, we were shown to a very nice quiet room so l could talk with my sister who hearing difficulties hearing with noise and lots going on around her. We had been invited that afternoon to a entertainment
afternoon which was very nicely presented, only problem not enough chairs had not been put out, noted food was very nice but had been put out into a very open sunny spot, needed shading as cream and cakes were in full sunlight. The garden was beautiful full of colour l could see a lot work evolved .

You cannot improve on perfection. It is one of the best I have been in (I have visited quite a lot and I used to have a pet as a therapy dog/dogs) for 21 years. They were caring, friendly and my dear friend who is there is so very happy. She looks so well since she has been in Woodlands. The facilities
are amazing, the food delicious (so my friend says she and I are vegetarian).

The staff at Woodlands continue to provide gold standard care for my dad who has been a resident there for the past 7 months.
Dad loves all the trips and activities that are on offer and the enrichment they provide give him the opportunity to socialise and feel part of the wider community.
The staff
are attentive to all dad's needs and communication effectively with family members about his wellbeing and health.
Woodlands is very 'resident focused', there I always something going on and in the words of my dad ' the staff are always there to help and they can't do enough for you'.

We were anxious about transitioning Mum to live at Woodlands. However, our experience has been overwhelmingly positive - no negatives AT ALL!!
The litmus test was Mum herself who literally bloomed from day one at Woodlands. She has expressed no wish to return to her own home, which is a great surprise
to us.
All of her needs are met so caringly - our family have been impressed by quite how much all the staff care about their job and each and every resident.
The food is nutritious and delicious; the trips are great fun and Mum ( who would not leave her home before) has been on nearly all of them!!!
The staff member who organises the FANTASTIC entertainment, is an absolute joy and this rubs off on all the residents.
Anyone considering sending an elderly relative to Woodlands should have absolute confidence that Woodlands brings quality and positivity to the latter years.
THANK YOU SO much to the wonderful team at Woodlands

Mum has been a resident of Woodlands for a number of years. We have always been more than satisfied with the excellent care she has received. Mum's care needs have changed gradually over the years and her care plan has always been carefully tailored to meet these needs. Staff are friendly and courteous,
treating family and residents with respect and empathy. I would strongly recommend Woodlands to anyone looking for care for their relative.

Woodlands has been the home for my 95-year-old father for 2 years now. He suffers from some vascular dementia. In that time I have found that the genuine care and love of the Woodlands team for my father has alleviated his anxiety greatly, and has kept him in good health for all of that time. Any health
issues that do occur, (and at 95 they do occur) are dealt with fast professionally and creatively. They have a "can do" attitude at Woodlands. Not only do I trust them completely with my Father's care, but I would trust them with my own should it come to that. Great care homes do exist- they just don't get in the media. Thank you Woodlands.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.861)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.861) out of 10 for Woodlands Residential 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 49 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 49 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 4.861 for Woodlands Residential Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (495 Excellents x 5) + (67 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 568 Ratings = 4.861
  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 Woodlands Residential Care Home is based on 49 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 40 registered maximum number of service users is 8, which has been reached with 49 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.

I help support with any questions and concerns but what I love most is every day I get to meet new people, hear their life stories and build great relationships with them and their families. Once they have moved in it is a joy to watch our residents thrive and enjoy life, loved ones too.
