Review from Lynne H (Daughter of Resident) published on 22 February 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum has been residing at Wordsworth House care home for 6 years. She has severe dementia and is cared for extremely well. I have always found staff members to be very caring and look after my mum so well, even when she doesn't make it easy for them. I haven't been able to physically see her in nearly
12 months but the staff have kept me informed of how she is doing. I can highly recommend this facility to anyone looking for dementia care.

My ratings say it all.
This care home has been a breath of fresh air for my father and our family.
It is light and airy with a warm welcoming feel about it in a lovely location.
The management and staff are extremely attentive and kind towards us all.
I cannot praise Wordsworth House enough.

My husband has had the best care anyone could expect in this lovely care home, Wordsworth House.
The love and care my husband gets is just wonderful.
My mother spent three years here at Wordsworth House, she too was happy here, just like my husband, the staff really make him so happy.
My husband
was at end of life when in hospital, we didn't want to lose him, the staff have got him back on his feet once again by feeding him and making sure his drinks are there and taking him into rooms etc including him in games.

Review from Julie M (Daughter of Resident) published on 11 May 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Mum has been living here approx 9 weeks and seems to have adapted very well to her new environment. The staff have been very welcoming and the manager is very approachable. One of the considerations for mum was to be able to take her little dog with her, as they had never been separated in 10 years,
and this was considered carefully by the management and they now live together as though at home. One bonus is that the home is purpose built.

Review from Margery L (Daughter of Resident) published on 9 January 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father was placed into care in December 2017. It has been a distressing time for our family. The positive in all of this has been the support and care from the team at Wordsworth House.
From the manager, deputy manager, care workers, catering team and the wonderful maintenance man, our experience
has been overwhelmingly positive. They have taken every step to help Dad settle in and have provided support and reassurance to our whole family.
It has helped us all to cope with a major change in our lives and we are grateful to all at Wordsworth House for the fantastic job they do.
Reply from Aimee Green, Home Manager at Wordsworth House Care Centre

I visit my friend who is a resident every week. He always seems well cared for and happy that all his needs are being met.


A small group of us from church have been invited by the activities coordinator to take a short service once a month for the residents which my friend appreciates very much.

Review from June F (Friend of Resident) published on 22 November 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
When a neighbour was told she would have to go into a residential home she was very reluctant and upset about the decision. After a stay in hospital she arrived at the house and settled very well and enjoyed her stay, she never mentioned her own home or wanting to return there. The staff are very friendly
and helpful, she made friends with them all. When after a short stay she passed away, we went to tidy the room and the help we received was wonderful, we were invited to the Christmas Party.

Review from Carol T (Daughter of Resident) published on 15 September 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has advanced Alzheimer's and was placed at Wordsworth House for 2 weeks respite whilst my father, her full-time carer, dealt with his own medical issues.
At the conclusion of the respite, the family decided to make my mother's place permanent.
She settled in well, the staff give her friendly,
personal and professional care.
The staff are always welcoming when the family visit, ready to update us with my mother's well being.
They are always on hand to ensure my mother's dignity and well being are looked after.
A truly friendly, caring, professional environment.

I have found the home efficient and caring. I am always contacted if there is a problem. The meals are very good and nutritional with a good variety. The staff and management are always helpful, friendly and polite. If I have any concerns or suggestions I feel comfortable talking to the appropriate
person. If anything I think more activities would be beneficial to the resident. But otherwise, I have no complaints.

The care and assistance to all our family from all the staff were excellent throughout my mothers stay at Wordsworth House. Mum was a very independent lady who would not let anyone help and the care and help from staff ensured she settled very quickly in the home from home environment.

Review from David L (Son of Resident) published on 25 May 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Just a massive thank you to all the staff at Wordsworth House.
My mother was a resident at the home between October 2016 and March 2017, during this time the care and attention that was given to my mum by all the staff was superb.
Mum needed to go into a home after an accident in her home meaning
she was unable to be on her own.
A very difficult discussion to have to make trying to find the right home for an elderly parent. BUT as soon as we visited Wordsworth House and were shown around and introduced to the staff we new mum would be happy and comfortable here.
As a son you need to be kept informed off how mum was adjusting to life in the home, the staff passed on all the information each time we visited the home (daily).
Many thanks from all our family.

The home is very welcoming to visitors.
We were offered tea and brought chairs on arrival.
I brought my mother to visit her old friend.
They used to go out together before she became a resident at the home.
My mother still manages to live alone in her own home.
There is a very calm atmosphere,
views are lovely and all the ladies appear to have had their hair done.
They all appear content and there are pets within the home.

Current Review Score: 9.2 (9.186)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.2 (9.186) out of 10 for Wordsworth House Care Centre is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 7 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 4.611 for Wordsworth House Care Centre is calculated as follows: ( (64 Excellents x 5) + (27 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 95 Ratings = 4.611
  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 4.575 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Wordsworth House Care Centre is based on 7 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 = 3.7
    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 40 registered maximum number of service users is 8. 7 Positive Reviews ÷ 8 = 0.875
  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.
