I am having difficulty in getting a response for receiving a refund from Advinia. As of 11/09/2023, it is now 83 days. This does not comply with their terms and conditions. We have had several telephone calls and emails to various staff, also solicitor has emailed them and still no response. We are
owed over £7k and have funeral expenses and other bills to pay.
Our relative passed away on June 19th 2023. This matter is very stressful, especially at this sad and difficult time.

Reply from Jack Wildman, Home Manager at Netherton Green Care Home

Dear Margaret,
I am sorry to hear that Advinia have not yet processed your refund. As all of the necessary steps have been taken at home level, we have now escalated this review to head office. I understand that this can be a difficult time, please be assured that this is being dealt with by our Finance Team at Head Office, who will contact you regarding this matter.

The care given to my mum is beyond what we thought she would receive. The carers are always polite and interacting with all residents. Luckily, my mum is able to be taken on days out, which is a nice added bonus. They also arrange for entertainment (i.e. singers) to come in and perform for the residents.

Reply from Paul Lawson, National Sales Manager at Netherton Green Care Home

Hello Craig and thank you very much for your review. We are delighted that you are so satisfied with the care your mum is receiving and that she is enjoying the entertainment on offer. Thanks also for your kind comments about the care team. Best wishes.

From the outset, we were warmly and compassionately welcomed by the deputy manager and his team. They all went out of their way to reassure us that my uncle would receive the very best of care. Very person-centred and nothing was too much trouble. I can thoroughly recommend excellent palliative care.

When we came to visit as a family, we were offered hot drinks and biscuits. We were made to feel welcome at any time. He was checked on regularly, and looked clean and comfortable. The room was always clean and tidy and also around to hand pictures up to make it feel like home. He loved the stuff as
his face always lit up hearing them. We are so pleased with his care and thank everyone.

My mum has been a resident in Darby House for over 3 years and I have found the nursing care to be of an excellent standard. Any concerns are dealt with promptly and sensitively and to my satisfaction. I feel reassured she is in safe hands. I am kept informed if there are any issues that I need to be
made aware of and I am always made to feel very welcome when I visit my mum. I have no hesitation in recommending this care home to anyone who may be looking for a care home for their loved one.

Mum has been in Netherton Green now for three years. I cannot fault the care that she receives and any small issues that I may have raised have mainly been dealt with. Mum is in Windmill Unit and most of the staff and especially the activities lady on there go above and beyond! As with all care homes,
there is always room for improvement.

Reply from Caron Williams, Home Manager at Netherton Green Care Home

Thank you for taking the time to review Mum's care on Windmill. I am pleased to hear that we have been responsive to any concerns you have needed to raise and hopefully the home will move from strength to strength moving forward.

I feel the carers here are excellent and make me feel confident that Mum is protected and cared for. This is so important to me as I am so sad to have to leave her care to someone else. What a cruel way to end your days isn't it? Carers really are overworked and underpaid but a blessing for us all.

My mom went to Netherton Green for rehabilitation after a fall. From the moment she arrived I received a phone call from a lovely nurse to let me know she was settled and happy. Every time I called the home to ask how my mom was the staff were well mannered and took the time to answer my questions,
in particular the receptionist who was very patient and took the time to call me back if she didn’t know the answer to my questions. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to see my mom as often as I would have liked due to covid but staff were always happy to hand me the washing and put away the clean washing whenever I came by and I was kept up to date with any changes. Mom couldn't fault the care staff although she did say that there wasn’t enough staff so they were run off their feet. Although they were clearly overworked, this didn’t reduce the amount of care and love they gave. From the receptionist, unit manager, care staff, nurses and cleaning staff, I couldn’t fault the care! Thank you all!

Thank you for your kind words, we are delighted that you were happy with the home, care and the team. I will ensure that your comments are passed on to the receptionist and the care team.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5

My mom was only in here for 24 hours and that was too long. She was admitted for rehab for a broken hip. It absolutely broke her spirit and she was desperate to get out. My dad brought her TV in so she had something to do and the television was never plugged in. During the night she was left for hours
in soiled underwear. When she asked to be washed, one member of staff said to another, "Leave her until tomorrow." When she called for help, no one came to her. One member of staff came to her and then slammed the door on her when leaving. When the family came to visit, her water jug was empty, and she was sat in the heat, dripping with sweat with no fan! She also had a thigh dressing from surgery, which hadn't been changed.


The nurses were brilliant with updates, but the actual hands-on care was disgusting! My mom worked in care herself when younger, and even though she's ill, she could have done a better job herself. Would not recommend for rehabilitation.

We visit every week. You have to book an appointment and have a test before you see your relative. When you have had the test you are made to wait a full 30 minutes before you can go ahead with the visit. I can deal with that but what I can not accept is when I arrive for my appointment on time, ring
the buzzer then have to wait 30 minutes sometimes before a member of staff comes out to us.

Reply from Julia Bentley, COO at Netherton Green Care Home

I am very sorry that you experienced a delay during your recent visit. Whilst I am pleased to note that our colleagues are adhering to our strict Covid protocol I will speak with the Home Manager and Regional Director to ensure this issue is addressed promptly.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.402)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.402) out of 10 for Netherton Green 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 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 21 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.527 for Netherton Green Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (162 Excellents x 5) + (75 Goods x 4) + (21 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 260 Ratings = 4.527

  • 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 4.875 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Netherton Green Care Home is based on 21 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 120 registered maximum number of service users is 24. 21 Positive Reviews ÷ 24 = 0.875

  • 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.
