Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father had been a resident since December 2020 until he sadly passed away in June 2021.
As a family, we cannot fault the level of professional care and support given by all the staff. All requirements for his comfort, well-being and medical needs were constantly monitored and adjusted to ensure
a high level of care. Dad enjoyed the company of the happy staff and we thank them for treating him with continued respect and dignity as he neared the end of life.
The family will always remain extremely grateful to all the wonderful staff at Overseal Residental Home.

The manager and her team have looked after my father since December 2020. I can't fault their care, friendship, support and commitment to making my father's time there as enjoyable and comfortable as can be. I had visited a number of times post lockdown and was always met with a professional and competent
team.

My Mum is being cared for at Overseal Care Home. She has dementia. I am so grateful to them for the care they give my mum. The staff are friendly and supportive and are always available to chat to. I live in London so my mum is far away from me but I feel like she is being cared for by lovely caring
people and she is so happy there. She is definitely at home at Overseal and is comfortable surrounded by professional carers who treat her like she is their own family. I would specifically like to thank her carers who have an amazing bond with mum. Thank you so much Overseal for making my mum's final years happy ones.

My mum is a resident at Overseal Care Home. I live in South Africa so it's important to me and my sister that mum is in a place she is happy. The home, the staff, the carers are the most amazing people. I never have to worry about being so far away that mum is ok. Mum is so happy since she has been
there. The staff treat her like she is their own mother. Thank you everyone at Overseal for the care and love you show Mum. Truly an amazing care home.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Dad was resident for nine months until he sadly passed away in January 2020.
I cannot fault the care and support he was given by all members of the team from day one. His needs were closely monitored and all requirements for his health and wellbeing acted upon as necessary. There is a lovely feeling
and atmosphere about the home which is noticeable as soon as you become a visitor and part of the wider Overseal family. Any questions or concerns are immediately addressed. The staff always make time to be available for you and nothing is too much trouble. The care, respect and dignity Dad was given as he neared the end of life was second to none as was the comfort and support given to us at a very difficult time. As a family, we will always have the utmost gratitude for everything that was done for Dad during his time there and I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending this home to others.

I would like to give thanks and praise to all the staff at Overseal Care Home for doing an exceptional job of caring for our beloved Mum, Nana and Gran Gran. They treated us all with the upmost respect from day one and could not have done any more than they did for her or us.
I would definitely recommend
Overseal Care Home to other family and friends as I feel we are blessed to live in a community that has these amazing people looking after them. I wish you all well for the future.

Woodville Residential Care Home is clean, smells nice, homely, has nice food, drinks are provided regularly through the day, as well as snacks. The carers all seem friendly and always willing to help. My mum has been there a year now, and after a few teething problems is now settled nicely. The manager
is always there to help if I have any problems or questions.

I cannot commend the team enough for the love and care they given to my dear Mother. She had three weeks with the team before I lost her. The team under the wonderful care home manager gave mum and the family the love and support during her short time there. I will always be grateful and won't lose
touch with you all. Much love.
Reply from Kerry Eyley, Manager at Overseal Residential Home

Thank you so much, Jenny, for your commendable comments. We aim to treat every Mum as our Mum and every Dad as our Dad. That is what makes it like a real family. A true Home Away From Home. However, suffice to say it is the residents, the families and the staff that make it all happen. So, as a manager, I am truly obliged to you all. Please keep in touch and do drop in for a cup of tea!

Please commend all staff for the care given to my sister during her short time [3 weeks] before her end of life. The compassion and professional attitude is to be applauded during this difficult family time. Friendships were forged, not only with staff but also with residents who will not be forgotten.
Reply from Kerry Eyley, Manager at Overseal Residential Home

Thank you so much for such commendable words of the Overseal. We miss your sister as every resident to us is like a family of our own. The Home's asset as you say is the hard working staff and management who treat all residents as family - a Home away from Home. Many thanks.

Overseal Residential is a brilliant home with a dedicated manager and wonderful caring staff. My Mum has been here for a few years now and is very well looked after, all her needs are met and she is treated with dignity and respect. The care staff are very attentive and they are always looking out for
the residents, most of the time with big smiles on their faces which in turn makes the residents more relaxed and happy. The new manager can not do enough for you, she is very welcoming and easy to talk to. Nothing is too much trouble and she puts you at ease straight away, which is what you need when you are leaving your loved one in the care of someone else.

Some areas of decor are a little tired but the new owners are on top of this.


More importantly the care the residents receive is excellent. The staff manage to get the right balance between professional and caring.


My uncle went in for a temporary stay and wanted to stay long term. I think that

Overall, the care home carries out its role very well. It is not pretentious. Staff work well with our relative. She is well cared for across all the important areas - personal care, medication, comfort, professional inputs ie nurses when dressings required. Communication with relative and family is
excellent.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.851)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.851) out of 10 for Overseal Residential 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 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 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 4.851 for Overseal Residential Home is calculated as follows: ( (149 Excellents x 5) + (26 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 175 Ratings = 4.851
  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 Overseal Residential Home is based on 15 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 30 registered maximum number of service users is 6, which has been reached with 15 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.
