My mother lived in the care home for three and a half years, then passed away. We have no complaints at all. The staff were most caring and showed respect and privacy when needed.

My mum had just over 3 happy years at this home. She was on the dementia unit where all her care needs were met with the brilliant care staff and management. All her needs were catered for, her room was in excellent condition and always clean. The staff and manager also made us feel at home and when
mums dementia got worse the senior district nurse wanted to move mum to a nursing home which was very distressing for all the family, but thanks to the manager and regional manager who fought our case, mum stayed where she knew as her home. Mum sadly passed end of November but I can never thank all at the home enough for everything that was done for mum and I still pop in to see them. Well done care staff.

Having never set foot in a care home until my mother was admitted in February 2015, I had big reservations about them. Wordsworth House Care Centre has been an absolute dream. There my mother was made to feel welcome right from day one, all her needs have been met fully and I have no concerns about
her safety or well being. The staff are amazing, helpful, funny and caring and I am kept informed fully of every situation regarding my mother.

Many thanks for your lovely review, I will pass the comments over to the staff.

First impressions of the home were very favourable. Staff were helpful and understanding in our time of need. My father-in-law soon settled in and treats Wordsworth House Care Centre as his home now. He likes the staff who care for him. He says how hard they work, not only in a caring role but strive
in meeting all his needs. He thanks me for bringing him to live here and in turn I thank everyone for their kindness and professionalism.

I would like to state that I am very happy with the improvements made at Wordsworth House, my mum is happy and to me, that is all that matters. I think this is mainly down to the hardworking staff who work in the Dementia unit, they are all courteous and knowledgeable about my mum. We are at all times
kept up to date with information regarding my mum, good or bad.

My nanna was in Wordsworth House for 3 years until she passed away in November 2016. I could not ask for more from the staff. They treated my nan with dignity at all times. They went above and beyond the care needed and many times just sat with her when she was frightened. Wordsworth House staff,
management and even the maintenance man became part of our extended family. God bless!

I think that the care is generally of a perfectly reasonable standard, with a large number of activities.


A good standard of care for each resident as an individual, with good quality meals, although the rooms are slightly small and one or two things could be slightly cleaner.

Many thanks for your comments. I will discuss your review with the Home Manager.

I like being at Wordsworth House because the staff are all lovely and kind. The food is fine. I like playing dominoes and card games with other residents and staff. Trips out with the minibus are great fun.

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.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) 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:

  • a) 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

  • 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 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:

    • 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 = 3.7

    • 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 40 registered maximum number of service users is 8. 7 Positive Reviews ÷ 8 = 0.875

  • 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.
