My mum recently moved in to Queenswood as a permanent resident after a respite stay. We've found the staff to be friendly, helpful and efficient and the atmosphere welcoming. We visited several care homes in the area and Queenswood was the clear favourite.

My father has been in Queenswood for nearly 18 months, as he was too frail and disabled to manage at home any more. Since he moved in, he has become increasingly frail and I am so glad we moved him when we did, as I know he is safe and well looked after. The home is always very clean, and homely, and
the staff are friendly and helpful. The food is of an excellent standard, and when dad first moved in he particularly enjoyed that, and looked better for it. He has had health problems at times and the staff always access the GP quickly and keep me informed if there are any issues. The garden is beautiful and we often sit out there when I visit. The activities coordinator organises daily activities and also holds events to which families are invited, eg the summer fair, the Christmas party. I would recommend Queenswood to anyone looking for a caring, residential home.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have happily visited a number of residents at Queenswood over many years and I have always found the home to be welcoming and effective in all aspects of its work.
Today I had cause to visit out of normal daylight hours and found that, as on previous occasions, the home was clean and well-ordered,
with the staff calm, respectful and efficiently caring.
I have nothing but praise for the professional and thorough attitudes of the staff who clearly feel valued in their work and perform their duties with diligence, cooperating together as part of a well-organised team.
There is no sense that things are done for appearance, everything that goes on at Queenswood is a purposeful part of the work of the home, be it meal provision, domestic services, administration or simply the dedicated routines of personal care.
All my relatives and friends of mine who have lived at Queenswood have been very happy and safe there and supported to live the final phase of their lives as fully as possible.

The care received by my mother-in-law is very appropriate to her. Staff are willing to listen to any worries or issues we have and try their best to resolve them and feedback. They keep us informed of any medical issues and listen and respond promptly to ideas we may have to help make my mother-in-law's
care personal to her. Staff offer her the choice to involve herself in a wide range of activities, which are delivered twice daily with a smile. She has the freedom to choose to join in or have quiet time in her room or communal lounge. She enjoys her meals.

My mother has been a resident at Queenswood for 20 months. She had previously been living independently at home but had suffered frequent falls and toilet accidents despite regular carer visits.
I chose Queenswood after visiting other local homes but the atmosphere and culture at Queenswood felt right.
The rooms are pleasant and the facilities for residents are excellent. The gardens are extensive and well-kept. The food is good and most of all the staff are wonderful and have taken a huge weight off my shoulders. Always good communications from management and front-line staff.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Mother has been in Queenswood for 18 months. I had visited 8 other care homes in the area to check their suitability but was immediately impressed by the cleanliness and bright atmosphere. My Mother has been very well looked after and the staff have been superb. I expected a large turnover for some
reason, but this has not been the case at all and most of the faces I saw on day 1 are still around. I can't praise the staff enough. They are all friendly, hard-working, kind and attentive. Mum is very happy in her surroundings and enjoys the food and the twice-daily activities. A bonus for her is the regular visits from a local chaplain. Various events are arranged throughout the year to keep the residents engaged. On the occasions where she has had age-related illnesses, she has been well cared for and I have total confidence that she is in good hands. I am so pleased that I found Queenswood and highly recommend the care home to anyone who is looking for respite or permanent care.

My mother has been at Queenswood for the last five years. She is content and feels well cared for and supported. Care is respectful, person-centred and reviewed regularly. The carers are very responsive to needs, and any concerns are dealt with in a timely fashion. The range of activities keeps Mum
stimulated. The home has recently changed care provider, and this has been handled efficiently but the home manager and administrator - and the ethos maintained.

My m has been a resident at Queenswood for four and a half years. We have been very happy with her care. The atmosphere is pleasant and friendly, with comfortable rooms and communal lounge areas for the residents to use. Meals are good and choice is available. There are daily activities to join in with,
regular visits from the Chaplain and occasional entertainments. At times, when Mum has had medical problems, the staff have been quick to access appropriate help for her. Their concern for her safety and well-being has been evident. We feel confident in the provision of the care home and Mum is settled and happy there.

Review from Susan L (Daughter of Resident) published on 30 October 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father spent the last 18 months of his life in Queenswood. From the start, the staff helped him make the difficult shift from his home of 40 years as smoothly as possible so that he felt safe and welcomed. And once he arrived, the team helped him re-launch himself into ‘society’ in a way he hadn’t
done for years. He loved all the activities – including new experiences like meeting the alpacas and stroking a snake - enjoyed making new friends among the residents and the staff, and found the beautiful garden a wonderful place for reflection and exercise. As his health deteriorated and he became frustrated about what his body couldn’t do any more, he felt safe in the care and support of the team - the kitchen staff, the day and night team of carers, the cleaners – who ‘normalised’ this difficult situation and continued to see him as a valued and capable person. In the last week of Dad's life, the team’s support was truly exceptional.

Thank you for your review, it was our pleasure to look after your father. I am glad that the team managed to support him in relaunching himself into society. He will be missed by all at Queenswood.

Our friend, a resident at Queenswood Care Home recently had her 105th birthday there. It was a splendid occasion, thanks to the effort by all the staff to make a day to remember for all. Our friend has sixteen years of her relatives and friends round for afternoon tea. Decorations had been put up and
delicious refreshments provided and served beautifully! The home arranged for the mayor to visit her and photos were taken. A card from the queen was subsequently placed in a frame and hung on the wall of our friend's room by the caretaker so that she would see it every day. What a caring place!

We have huge admiration and gratitude for the staff of Queenswood as they provide a safe and friendly environment for Mum and the other residents. Mum loves the food, the willingness of staff to help when needed, and opportunities for prayer and worship. The families' meetings give us the chance to
share ideas for an even better experience for our loved ones and the staff readily look into the possibilities. This past year we feel that the staff have done a good job of preventing the spread of The Virus into the home and still made sure there are activities ("very important"!) and a relaxed atmosphere. Well done and thank you!

It's still early days for us as our Mum has only been in Queenswood for a couple of months but we are very happy with the care she is being given. As this is all new to us, we have had several queries which have been answered swiftly and professionally. All the staff that we have spoken to have been
extremely helpful and understanding. They encourage Mum to join in with the activities and this is something we feel is extremely beneficial to her. Thank you.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.795)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.795) out of 10 for Queenwood 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 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 11 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 4.795 for Queenwood is calculated as follows: ( (105 Excellents x 5) + (27 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 132 Ratings = 4.795
  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 Queenwood is based on 11 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 41 registered maximum number of service users is 8.2, which has been reached with 11 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.
