I am beyond grateful for the wonderful care my mum received during her stay at Woodlands Court Care home, Kirton, Boston,.
During her three year stay I visited her frequently and saw for myself how well the staff got to know my mum and understood her individual needs.
The staff were very kind and
caring, and everything possible was done to help make my mum happy and comfortable, from clean clothes, a clean room and bathroom to delicious home cooked meals and help with personal care, everyone worked so hard.
The management and nursing staff are excellent, very approachable, always ready to listen and to help sort out any concerns with sympathy and empathy.
As the building is all on ground level my mum was able to walk around safely which helped to keep her active which she enjoyed.
Her room, with big patio doors overlooked the pretty garden which she loved, and during her three years there she often said "This is the next best place to home."

This care home is lovely, the place, the staff, everything. The staff are wonderful with residents and families never felt so loved by people at a hard time. If I ever hear a person needing help to get into a home, I will forever recommend this brilliant place.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter came to Woodlands in October 2023 for end-of-life care. From the very first meeting, we were extremely happy with everything. The staff and management were amazing. Nothing was ever too much trouble for them we were always informed of everything every step of the way and they gave their
time to stop and chat with us. We were allowed to stay with her 24/7 in the last month and the care they not only showed her but to us was first class. She was looked after so very well and all her needs were met. They made a sad time just a little easier to cope with.
Reply from Amanda Perrins, Registered Manager at Woodlands Court

Thank you very much for taking the time to share how happy you were with the care your daughter received at our home. We believe that being included in the journey of someone's end of life is an honour and showing compassion and inclusion with the extended family is a top priority for us.

Review from Sue N (Daughter of Resident) published on 11 March 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father has been very well cared for since his arrival in July 2023. Although bedridden his state of health has improved significantly. His room is comfortable and benefits from a patio door overlooking a garden area. All staff are friendly and caring and are a credit to their profession. A mix of
ages of staff is an asset and there is an air of respect, despite sometimes being stretched in terms of time. In many ways, the friendliness of the carers to both dad and myself is a greater asset than the physical surroundings. From my perspective, the home is run efficiently and effectively.
In terms of developments, I would love to see the one despicable door in the long corridor with a coat of paint, but I am aware that some redecoration is beginning to take place. I would also love to see better care taken of the grass in the back garden, maybe planting some small cherry trees or similar along the fenceline where a large oak has been felled. Maybe families could be asked to fund a tree.
Reply from Amanda Perrins, Registered Manager at Woodlands Court

Thank you for acknowledging all our staff are friendly and you are happy with your fathers care. I agree with you regarding the door however it is part of the maintenance plan to redecorate the entire long corridor. The grass has started to grow again now and gardening plans are in place for the spring period which includes planting another tree within the next few days where the previous one has been felled. I would like to thank you for suggesting that our staff are a credit to their profession because that level of feed back is priceless to them and us as a company.
Kindest regards
Amanda

I find all staff very friendly and helpful. Always listen to me whether it's a phone call or a visit. My mother can be very demanding and always has problems, the staff deal very well in all situations. Her room is always clean and well presented, even with all the drinks spilt on the carpet - which
is regularly cleaned! Well done to all staff.

Thought that the physical location with its access to outdoors was excellent. The internal layout was also good.
Found all grades of staff very experienced, efficient, reliable, patient, kind and understanding. Would particularly like to thank the nurses.
Felt that the level of care and ability to
trust in that level of care was excellent.
The overall general feeling in Woodlands is good.

My mother was admitted after a short stay at the Butterfly Hospice for pain management and end-of-life/palliative care. Although we were only part of the Woodlands Court family for a very short period, we felt that the love and support shown to our mum and us during this very difficult time on our shared
journey with mum was outstanding. Everything that could be done was! All the staff treated mum with respect and cared for her, making her comfortable, talking and spending time with her when we could not. Amazing 'family atmosphere'. Thank you.

I was in a very upset state of mind looking after my dad at home by myself. The senior team were extremely helpful with me getting my dad settled in Woodlands Court, first respite then permanently. Their care and compassion towards me and my dad were great. I just feel the home is a little dated, but
this does not lessen their care.

My partner is a very poorly and vulnerable gentleman in Woodlands Court (nursing wing). He has been a resident for three years having been moved from another home compulsorily closed down by the CQC. The staff, every single member, form a very close-knit community and before/throughout the pandemic
have gone above and beyond their calling to keep our loved ones safe. They have (and do) treat my partner with the utmost care and respect, maintaining his dignity at all times. I feel very included in this blanket of warmth that enfolds us.

My mum was provided with fast track/ palliative care for end of life care by the NHS. I was given a choice of 5 homes. I chose Woodlands Court for several reasons:- their CQC rating, the attitude of the staff nurse who showed me around (without an appointment) and the location and facilities. My instincts
of 'first impression' was followed up by the care, consideration and kindness my mum and her family were treated with. Mum, unfortunately, died on 22.12.18 with her family with her and I am very grateful to Woodland Court staff for their approach to her last 3 weeks.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.674)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.674) out of 10 for Woodlands Court 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 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 8 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 4.874 for Woodlands Court is calculated as follows: ( (85 Excellents x 5) + (8 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 95 Ratings = 4.874
  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 4.8 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Woodlands Court is based on 8 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 = 3.8
    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 31 registered maximum number of service users is 6.2, which has been reached with 8 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.
