Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Willow Bank is truly the most outstanding and heartwarming place. Willow Bank is so much more than just a care home, it's my grandma's home. The staff go above and beyond to make sure residents are always comfortable, clean, respected, and most importantly, happy and loved. My grandma's home is always
full of smiles and laughter whenever we go, the care she receives is excellent and the staff treat her like she's their own. I wouldn't want my grandma anywhere else. The food is excellent, varied, looks tasty and the cooks are lovely too. There is entertainment every day, which clearly puts a smile on everyone's face as well as keeps the residents simulated. The parties Willow Bank throw are always so full of joy, we love the parties and to see everyone so happy is so heartwarming and reassuring to my dad and aunties that they made the right decision for their mum. I know my family and I have nothing to worry about as long as my grandma is at Willow Bank. I will forever recommend this lovely home.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I am a regular, visiting volunteer with my border collie, we are members of a national pet therapy charity. We visit weekly to Willow Bank Residential Home. We are welcomed with smiles from all staff and all residents. Most of the residents have had dogs. My dog loves to sit by everyone for cuddles
in a warm, caring, safe environment. Hearing everyone's stories is fascinating, the happy faces of everyone at the home when he arrives are truly wonderful. I always feel uplifted and very happy on leaving until next week. Friendliness is apparent and kindness is in abundance. Thank you everyone for having us at Willow Bank.

The care and attention my dad receives at Willow Bank is excellent. All the staff are really friendly and are absolutely lovely with all the residents. Throughout December the activities and entertainment leading up to Christmas and New Year were really special. I can rest easy knowing my Dad is so
well taken care of.

Excellent. The care and support from the moment you walk into Willow Bank, for both our father and our family, has been wonderful. The whole team at Willow Bank always try hard to meet the individual needs/likes and dislikes of each resident, helping them to feel safe, respected and loved. There are
lots well thought daily fun activities, parties and celebrations and outings into the community for the residents to join in, if they want to. It is a relief knowing our wonderful Father/Grandad is being so well cared for.

My mum has been a resident at Willowbank since May 2023. The standard of care provided by the carers is excellent. They are all kind and supportive to mum and I. The home is spotlessly clean and the food is excellent. Cannot fault in any way and feel reassured that Mum is being well cared for.

My father-in-law is very happy in his new home. He loves the food and the activities. The socialization has been brilliant for him. He is well looked after and cared for. The care workers are very professional and seem to really enjoy what they do. I love seeing the pictures they post of the different
activities the residents get up to. They all look so happy. It’s a very well-run care home.

Willow Bank Care Home is an amazing and truly outstanding home. My mother-in-law is very happy there and she is looked after excellently. The management and staff are wonderful. They treat the residents with so much respect and look after them like they are their own family which is so nice to see.
They do activities every day which keep the residents stimulated and have entertainers going in the home frequently. Willow Bank has a very homely feel to it and the management and staff go above and beyond looking after the residents and their families. I would not hesitate to recommend this home.

I have never had a “bad” visit to this home; it’s so refreshing to see my grandma so well looked after, happy and entertained. All the residents in the home are lovely- the staff at the home make it the wonderful place it is. The staff perfectly make it a true home to its residents- with the personalised
pictures around the home, all the celebrations and parties they throw: it’s not an establishment but a true home for its residents. Me and my family love visiting- all needs of my grandma are met; keeping her as comfortable as possible. It couldn’t be a better home if it tried.

The staff in the home work hard and are extremely caring. They anticipate the needs of the residents and ensure their comfort needs are met.
The staff are always visible in the home and ensure each resident is clean, fed and happy.
They have entertainment/activities daily to ensure well-being of
the residents.
Birthdays and other celebrations are held regularly, much effort is put into these.
The staff welcome visitors into the home ensuring they are put at ease. Visitors are encouraged to join in the celebrations.

My mum began visiting Willow Bank as a daycare last year. We as a family have been very pleased with the service they have provided to us and in more recent months we have begun to get to know the staff and other residents very well. Willow Bank is a welcoming and happy place and all the residents appear
to be settled and content within their surroundings, and as relatives of those who reside and are cared for there, this provides comfort and appreciation.
The staff and management are very dedicated and approachable and provide a caring environment for all concerned.
I’d recommend the home wholeheartedly.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have nothing but praise for Willow Bank Nursing Home- the staff take their duty of care very seriously indeed and in that regard, my father’s physical and medical needs are fully understood. He always looks beautifully turned out -clean, well-dressed and shaved. His appearance has always been important
to him and it is reassuring to the family that this is recognised and prioritised by the staff.
The workforce seem well trained and foreground respect and dignity towards the residents. Not only that but my father has been shown such kindness over the months that he has been resident there. The staff have supported him through the deepest grief after the loss of my mother after 65 years of marriage.
The families of the residents are welcomed at any time and there is always something happening - a sing-along, a visit from the children at the local nursery, or a trip out. The family chose Willow Bank for its sense of home from home - it deserves its CQC rating of Outstanding.

I can't speak highly enough of Willow Bank. My dad's care is exceptional. All the staff really do care about the residents and their attention and love is second to none. It is like he is part of their family. My dad has dementia and all his needs are taken care of promptly and without any questions.
The communication to and from Willow Bank is excellent and we are always kept in the loop as to what is happening. Our advice is also sought should a problem arise. The best thing is the amount of activities that are organised. They are appropriate to the age group and the carers don't treat the residents like children. I think my dad has benefited from being there and I am happy in the knowledge that he is being extremely well looked after.

My Mum had daycare for some time at Willow Bank and was then a resident full-time for the last three weeks of her life. I cannot praise the team enough. The care they showed her was exceptional and the fact that I was able to stay with her round the clock for the last few days of her life and be met
with such compassion and dignity for my mum too is something I will always be extremely grateful for. Willow Bank went above and beyond for us - We can’t thank them enough and although those last few days were extremely difficult I am so grateful I had the opportunity to spend that time with my mum and witnessed the lovely relationship she had with so many staff members. Thank you all.

Mum has been looked after here for coming up to two years. She doesn't engage much but can always manage a smile for her carers. Great range of activities to keep residents stimulated and happy. She is so well looked after, such a weight off our shoulders knowing she is so well cared for. Being a small
home suits our mum as it's a nice, friendly atmosphere.

Where to start? The staff make a home, and that's what Willow Bank is, my mum's home. An inviting place filled with love, respect, humility and humour. Residents are impeccably respected and cared for; even the most challenging. It's a place where the cruelty of dementia is laid bare, but met head-on
with a heart-warming tenderness. We are lucky to have been able to place my mum in their care. From the management down to the youngest member of staff, it's the place I'd want to be should I be unfortunate enough to need it. I know my mum is cared for and is loved in WB and that puts my family at ease. I only wish my dad could have ended his days in the Willow Bank embrace. I count the staff; every one of them as friends. The food is amazing (just like the cooks), the entertainment is quality and frequent, and the parties; well, they're legendary - and good for the soul. There's nothing I can say that can adequately express my gratitude but I hope these comments go some way to doing so.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.898)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.898) out of 10 for Willow Bank 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 27 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 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 4.898 for Willow Bank Residential Home is calculated as follows: ( (289 Excellents x 5) + (20 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 315 Ratings = 4.898
  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 Willow Bank Residential Home is based on 27 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 18 registered maximum number of service users is 3.6, which has been reached with 27 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.
