Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I visited my friend recently, he was very happy with the care he received while there. I spoke to a couple of the staff who were very helpful and came across that they really cared, especially one staff member whom I think is responsible for keeping the residents entertained. He told me she was amazing
and was always cheerful. Many thanks and great work to all involved.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Since my nan has been at Whiston Hall, we have found staff and management have gone above and beyond. When my nan arrived we had some reservations about the room given, but the team resolved these issues within 24 hours and made us as a family a lot happier.
Staff and management have been kind and
supportive to my family member and have kept us as a family up-to-date and well-informed.
The care given has been more than satisfactory.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We can't fault the level of care provided by the staff. The home is kept spotlessly clean and the staff are lovely and so patient despite the complex issues of the residents. The residents we come into contact with when we are visiting my mother-in-law are always smiling or snoozing, from their lunch
and we've got to know some of them very well and always like to chat with us.

Excellent home, good staff and well managed. My mum has almost been here for a year and I have never had to raise a concern. Good choice of food and the rooms are well maintained. Residents are always put first.

Staff at Whiston Hall have been really supportive of my mum since she came in from hospital. My mum struggles with anxiety so needs calmness, patience and a homely environment with understanding from those providing care.
Two members of staff, in particular, have been exceptional.

My experience as a whole has been very good - my legs were truly taken care of by the nurses and in the home when I felt unwell they were very kind and considerate. I was truly looked after, I would recommend to anyone.

Review from Kay W (Daughter of Resident) published on 29 April 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum became a resident at Whiston Hall from April 2018.
During this time she has settled in to the warm environment better than I thought she would.
A quiet lady who is quite happy with her own company, but at Whiston Hall, she has made friends and been encouraged to take part in some activities.
Recently
my mum was taken to hospital. I actually thought she would never return to Whiston Hall but she has. The care, compassion that the team at Whiston Hall has shown my mum has been second to none. I have complete trust in the team's ability to help get my mum back to good health. I can highly recommend Whiston Hall.

My mother entered the home for temporary respite care but has become settled and happy there, so is now staying there long-term. She sleeps well and has high praise for the staff. Her room is not large, but she likes it.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Although my mum was a resident at Whiston Hall for only a couple of months, we found the staff and people were excellent. Residents are treated with respect and dignity. The rooms are clean and tidy, some have great views due to the good location. Decent food and entertainment were evident and everyone
seemed to be happy there. The staff, from the manager to the cleaning people were friendly and helpful. I would recommend Whiston Hall to anyone looking for a care home place for their loved one, it really is that good.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.412)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.412) out of 10 for Whiston Hall Ltd is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.4 out of 5 from 25 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 4.412 for Whiston Hall Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (179 Excellents x 5) + (74 Goods x 4) + (24 Satisfactorys x 3) + (7 Poors x 2) + (7 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 291 Ratings = 4.412
  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 Whiston Hall Ltd is based on 21 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 48 registered maximum number of service users is 9.6, which has been reached with 21 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.
