My mother is very happy living at the Wheatlands Care Home. She says she feels very fortunate to be here. The staff are amazing and so well trained. Mum loves sitting out in the garden which is lovely. The food is very good and I know that she is safe, so I don't worry as much.

The care my mother receives is absolutely excellent. The staff are superb and retain their senses of humour despite the long hours and demands placed upon them. The activities are varied and mum gets taken to soup lunch in church which is always a highlight. It is a lovely home but the staff make it
what it is - they should be cherished. Thank you to all of them!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
It's never an easy decision to place your loved one in a residential care home, there are so many factors to consider. My mother moved in December 2024 (a difficult day for all concerned), she has mixed dementia and my father could no longer cope.
The support we have received from the team at Wheatlands
has been exceptional. The manager and I, have been communicating for at least 18 months, waiting for the right time and availability. She has listened to me every step of the way, which gave me huge confidence in the fact that Wheatlands would be the right 'home' for Mum.
The members of the team that I have met are friendly, kind and compassionate, they treat everyone with a level of respect that you rarely see these days. I for one can't thank them enough.
At last, I can sit back and relax knowing that Mum's needs are being met and that the team will also keep an eye on my father for me as he is a 'regular' visitor.

My mum arrived a year ago at the Barchester Wheatlands Care Home for permanent care which was an emotional time for her and for all of us children. We cannot believe the worry that has been taken off our shoulders. Mum really enjoys her life at the Wheatlands. The care team are dedicated, caring and
best of all, 'fun' individuals who together create an incredible team! We are always welcomed too with a huge smile and a warm hug.

My uncle has been well cared for and is thriving, the carers are lovely, nothing is too much trouble for them. Food is lovely and rooms and the home are clean, it is more like a hotel than a care home. The family of the residents are treated like family also.

I have visited our friend in the dementia unit. From the moment I entered, there was a warm, helpful and friendly welcome. Loved the displays along the corridors. It was obvious that the staff were caring and knew the residents well. On Sunday, which was my third visit, two of us joined our friend for
Sunday lunch. This was first-class and served by attentive staff. It benefitted our friend who felt she had gone out for lunch. I am very impressed how this very active lady has settled, which is so good to see. Very impressed with the activities. It is so vital to stimulate the residents. The best home in such a lovely setting. Well done.

I took my grandsons to the Barchester Wheatlands Care Home to partake in their Easter egg hunt. The event was well organised by their activities team. The care staff involved all residents and the enjoyment of both residents and visitors was clearly visible. A wonderful team and a beautiful home. Thank
you, especially to their Easter bunny for making it a wonderful family day.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Committing your parent or loved one to a care home is one of the harder decisions you will have to make in life. The next difficulty is finding somewhere that you are completely and utterly happy for them to live. I was lucky a friend recommended Wheatlands, his mother had lived there. It was during
the first year of Covid, which made things more difficult, but management made it possible for me to view the home and my mother's potential room. I thought it was lovely and the staff were friendly and helpful, so a decision was made and Mum moved in. Since then, I can honestly say that I have become friends with many of the staff and some of the residents, more importantly, Mum thrived and gained some ground against her dementia once she was supported in her everyday life. She enjoys the company, likes the meals she is offered daily.

Wheatlands Care Home have gone above and beyond in supporting me and helping with my needs, while my mother has been residing with them. From the first initial contact and enquiries to helping me understand funding and keeping me up to date with events in the home and the individual care of my mother.
I’m
having to arrange this care at a distance living some 5 hours travel distance away and having to fit in visits with work has been a challenge and a guilt trip. The staff at Wheatlands have always helped, been patient with my anxieties and supported me along the way.
My mother is a very private person and has found the need for help and asking for help different but the team leader is well aware of this. If there have been any concerns about my mother’s health and wellbeing I have been contacted and kept informed.
Putting a parent into care is not a choice that is easy for anyone but I would recommend Wheatlands if you find yourself in the position.

We have been so thankful that Dad was referred to Barchester Wheatlands Care Home. It is the perfect place for him. It's lovely to know some of the staff by name and everyone seems to have and show a genuine love for Dad. Thank you.
Our only problems are Dad's missing boxer shorts from the laundry
and items of Dad's which have gone missing. I understand how difficult it must be in this environment to prevent and keep on top of such things.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.784)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.784) out of 10 for Barchester Wheatlands Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 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 4.784 for Barchester Wheatlands Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (123 Excellents x 5) + (27 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 153 Ratings = 4.784
  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 Barchester Wheatlands Care Home is based on 13 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 53 registered maximum number of service users is 10.6, which has been reached with 13 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.
