Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother was in the care home for 17 months and sadly passed away last week.
I would like to thank the secretary as she welcomed us each time we visited.
The care staff did everything they could to make my mother comfortable.
They took her on trips out to the coast and local garden centres, they
joined her in many activities they had parties and little concerts regularly.
Mum made a very big bond with the care staff and made some very good friends.
The staff was so friendly always wanting to make our drinks and coming in for a friendly chat. I would recommend the care home to anyone.
Reply from Karen Sinclaire, Manager at Headingley Park Care Home

Thank you so much for the lovely comments, Brian, I will pass them on to staff.
It was our pleasure to have looked after your mum, she will be sadly missed.

Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5
My dad is a resident at this care home and my wife once worked here. Recently a new manager has taken over and now is better run etc. Previous manager had a few friends (workers) who were interested in and affected previous inspections (failed last Autumn 2022) last inspection was a pass, last May.
Informed from wife and the inspectors we talked last May. Things are better now since the new manager came in but still have staff short of problems.
Reply from The Manager, Manager at Headingley Park Care Home

Thank you Paul for taking the time to review the home. I cannot comment on the previous management, but I am pleased that you think things are improving within the home. Can I please assure you that we do not have any staff shortages. My door is always open if you have any concerns you would like to discuss.
Kind regards.

Review from R O (Niece of Resident) published on 9 June 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
Avoid this home like the plague! My uncle was left in his room, slumped in his chair on the dementia side of the home even though he didn't have dementia. He went into the home mid-Jan 2023 and after several falls (sliding out of the chair) he ended up in the hospital mid-March. Sadly he died a few
weeks later. The difference between the care on the hospital ward and Headingley Park was miles apart, he left the home with long fingernails and stubble. Within days on the hospital ward he was clean and looking his usual self. There were other residents walking into his room all the time, one even got in his bed with him, and his clothes were always missing. I understand there are poorly residents with dementia etc, but my uncle was not one of them and he should never ever have been on that side of the home. I tried on several occasions to speak to the manager (in person and over the phone) but she was always 'busy' and to this day I've never managed to speak with her.

Overall Experience 2.0 out of 5
What a disappointment that no one from the staff came to my friend's funeral. After being a resident for 2.5 years you'd think someone in management cared enough. No contact since he died, no message of sympathy or support. Every picture tells a story.
Reply from Mel Heaton, Manager at Headingley Park Care Home

We were not informed of the funeral, unfortunately the home is in lock down and staff, although would potentially not have been able to go, would have liked to at least sent flowers but we were not informed of this.

The staff in Headingley Park are very caring with my mother and make sure she is well cared for in every way. They are very approachable and eager to help. The cleanliness has improved dramatically and my Mum's room is always clean and tidy. Maybe the only thing that could be done to improve things
is to offer more activities.

I have found, after a short period of time, that my mother, with the care and aid of your experienced staff 24 hours a day, has been able to settle into a daily routine of safe and monitored medication within a warm and secure accommodation block, with like-minded residents in a family circle.
Thank
you Headingley Park residential home

My mam has settled very well, all staff have been brilliant. My only reservation is the activities. My mam had a short stay at another care home with the same company as Headingley. At that home, they had a person designated to activities. This would improve Headingley raising it to excellent.

The home is very clean throughout, decent sized bedrooms. Excellent choice of meals. The carers are excellent and very dedicated to the residents. Couldn't have chosen a better place for my aunt to spend her final years.

Accommodation: always clean and fresh smelling. Rooms and general areas are tidy. Immaculately maintained. Living and dining areas are very well kept.


Food quality: I've visited frequently and I'm delighted that Dad is happy with the plentiful portions and variety of menu. Excellent catering for

his birthday (88th) on 5th November.


Staff/carers: The most important aspect for me is the exceptional staff. The home has a fantastic team of management and carers. All the team are friendly, professional and totally committed to the care of residents. I am fully satisfied with Dad's care and I trust all the team totally.

Review from Caroline B (Daughter of Resident) published on 30 October 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 2.0 out of 5
My father was a resident here and although some of the staff were very attentive and pleasant, I found overall there was a lack of communication from the staff and, at times, they were not easy to approach and could be confrontational and rude.


The laundry system left a lot to be desired and on numerous

occasions, I found my father in other people's clothes, whilst most of his had gone missing. He was left without underwear and socks in his drawers on most of my visits no matter how many times I pointed this out, the general consensus was that I should expect this?


I felt standards of care and cleanliness could have been better and liaison with relatives improved.

Carers are very caring and loving, always chatting with residents and making sure they are OK. When my mum has been ill the staff have always made sure my mum got the medical attention she needed. I always feel that I can also talk to staff if I am feeling anxious or upset.

Current Review Score: 7.7 (7.708)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 7.7 (7.708) out of 10 for Headingley Park Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.3 out of 5 from 3 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.4 out of 5 from 2 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 4.333 for Headingley Park Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (19 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 36 Ratings = 4.333
  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 3.375 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Headingley Park Care Home is based on 2 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 = 3.125
    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. 2 Positive Reviews ÷ 8 = 0.25
  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.
