The Review Score of 9.5 (9.548) out of 10 for Walstead Place Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 23 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.
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 4.548 for Walstead Place Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (162 Excellents x 5) + (98 Goods x 4) + (11 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 272 Ratings = 4.548
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 Walstead Place Care Home is based on 22 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 45 registered maximum number of service users is 9, which has been reached with 22 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.

Job Title: Deputy Home Manager
I have been part of the Walstead team for 25 years and find job satisfaction in seeing my residents happy and living a full and active life. If I can do one thing each day that makes a difference to my residents’ wellbeing, I feel I have done a good job.
Job Title: Administrator
I love my job here because I get the opportunity to interact with the residents, as well as keeping the administration of the home running smoothly. I have worked in the care sector most of my adult life and this role gives me the best of both worlds.
Job Title: Home Manager
Steve is our Home Manager at Walstead Place, here’s a little bit more about himself and the home in his own words:
My role as Home Manager covers everything that helps Walstead Place feel like a true home for our residents. I’m responsible for making sure they’re well cared for, safe, and happy, but just as importantly, that they feel heard, respected, and involved.
I’ve worked in health and social care for over 25 years, across a wide range of services including residential care, nursing homes, and specialist neurorehabilitation. I’ve managed homes of all shapes and sizes, and every setting has taught me something valuable about people, leadership, and the importance of individualised care.
The greatest joy is seeing residents genuinely engaged, feeling independent, involved, and connected. From rediscovering a hobby to joining in the daily life of the home, those moments matter. I love when residents take ownership, whether it’s choosing meals, helping in the garden, or simply having their voice heard. It reinforces that this is their home, not just a place where care is provided.
When I walk into Walstead Place, I don’t see it as a workplace, I see it as a home that I’m privileged to be part of. That perspective shifts how we care, how we speak, and how we listen. It’s about bringing warmth, consistency, and kindness into everything we do.
