Woodeaves specialises in enriching the lives of elderly people, not because they care more than you, but just because it is what they do.

Having previously been looked after by parents or loved ones it can be difficult to adapt to the change of having to look after them. Looking after them doesn’t necessarily mean you providing their daily care it means making sure they receive the daily care and support they require to live a happy and fulfilled life.

We cant express enough how incredibly grateful we are for the exceptional care my mum received at Woodeaves Care Home. From the moment mum arrived, it was clear that all of the staff genuinely cared about her wellbeing and treated mum with such kindness, patience and respect, making her feel valued
and loved at all times. Woodeaves is like a "home from home" and was always clean, safe and very welcoming, providing a warm and homely atmosphere. The level of professionalism and compassion shown by every member of the team - from the carers to the management was truly remarkable - a massive shout out to the manager and deputy manager for going above and beyond, especially in mums final weeks, we really cant thank them enough. Every day she was treated with dignity, compassion and kindness and we will always be grateful for the sense of comfort and security that the care home provided during such a difficult time. We highly recommend Woodeaves!

My Mum went to live at Woodeaves in January 2024 as she was unable to live on her own safely. From the moment I had contact with the manager I felt I had known them for ages. They made the transition for Mum so easy and made her so welcome and literally "at home". She soon adapted to being there due
to the caring environment and nurturing. In September, we had a scare when Mum had quite an out-of-the-blue cardiac episode, we were on holiday in Spain! They literally saved her life with their quick response and actions. We were kept informed of absolutely everything and am glad today Mum went "home" after 2 days. From management down, to every member of staff, they are exceptional and I am so happy Mum is in their care.

Reply from Colleen Sharkey, Registered Manager at Woodeaves Residential Care Home

Thank you so much for your review, this truly means a lot, management and the team do their utmost best to ensure that service users are cared for in every possible way, even when facing upsetting or challenging situations. It is lovely to hear that Mum feels this is home from home, we like to ensure that the service users do feel comfortable and feel that they are at home, I will ensure your kind words are passed on to the rest of the team.

Very caring and welcoming homely building. The food and support is more than sufficient. We are very glad to have placed our resident here. We have been around many care homes and would give everything to this one five-star. Also many activities to keep residents entertained. They all have company and
good for arts/crafts and inclusiveness.

I chose Woodeaves because it was near to me but I have been more than happy with the staff. I feel the ambience of the home could be better and the carpet replaced, the general decoration could be improved.

Reply from Colleen Sharkey, Registered Manager at Woodeaves Residential Care Home

I would like to thank you for your kind words, I will pass this on to the rest of the team. We have taken on board people's thoughts on the decor and carpets, the carpets in the lounges are in the process of being replaced and there is a plan for other home improvements to be completed.

Starting with my first contact with Woodeaves by phone to enquire about vacancies, I was extremely impressed by the friendly, professional approach of the manager. She was honest and informative and arranged for me and my siblings to visit the next day. She and her deputy visited mum the next day at
home and arranged for her to move into Woodeaves the next day! Mum was comfortable in her room and treated with respect and dignity by all the staff at Woodeaves. We, as a family, thoroughly recommend Woodeaves to anyone. Thank you so much.

My mum was very reluctant to go into a home but since she has been living at Woodeaves Residential Care Home, we have noticed a big change in her. She has become more sociable and happy to be around other residents in the home. We are very happy with the wonderful carers and support workers, they are
lovely and very kind to my mum. Thank you to you all for looking after her.

Reply from Colleen Sharkey, Registered Manager at Woodeaves Residential Care Home

Thank you for your kind words. We fully appreciate it's a difficult decision to make when thinking of coming into a care home and also whether it's the right decision. We are very pleased on how well Mum has settled in and that she is thriving, I'm sure this gives you peace of mind that the right decision was made. I will pass on your lovely comment to the team.

Thank you for your lovely review, Mum is such a character and she has us in tears of laughter, I love that she is outspoken. We often listen to Mum giving us her impersonations of Mrs Brown's boys, Mum is an absolute treasure and it's a pleasure to be able to look after her, even when she does tell me off for putting too much salt on my food.

The care that the residents receive is ten out of ten. They are always treated with respect and dignity, included in their care plan. The staff are friendly to the residents and family and you always receive a warm welcome. Meals are excellent and plenty of choice with drinks and snacks throughout the
day. I would and have already recommended this care home to friends. You would not get a better one, it's a home away from home.

The care, compassion and empathy shown to us as a family, both leading up to and following the passing of my mother-in-law, were beyond compare. I do have to single out the certain staff members who ensured we were kept informed, and my mother-in-law was looked after and cared for both emotionally and
physically, right to the end. I just want to personally thank you all for making a very difficult time that little bit more bearable; you really are a credit to your profession.

Due to unforeseen circumstances, our mother was admitted to Woodeaves Care Home a year ago during a very difficult and challenging time.
The care home manager has gone above and beyond her duty to ensure our mother, who has dementia, has settled into the home and to support us as a family.
Due to
the Covid restrictions and not living in Cheshire, I have only been inside the Care Home on two occasions. When I visit I normally take my mum out but my overall impression is that the staff try their hardest to provide the residents with the care and attention they need.

All staff at Woodeaves have been incredible - keeping all their residents safe and upholding their commitment to duty of care, during such challenging times for staff, residents, families and friends. Woodeaves is a happy, homely, friendly environment which suited my mother - due to her dementia. Again,

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.826)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.826) out of 10 for Woodeaves Residential Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 14 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.826 for Woodeaves Residential Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (141 Excellents x 5) + (23 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 167 Ratings = 4.826

  • b) 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 Woodeaves Residential Care Home is based on 14 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 22 registered maximum number of service users is 4.4, which has been reached with 14 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
