I wouldn't want my Mum anywhere else, I worked in care for over 30yr and it's the nicest place I have ever been , great management, and lovely long serving staff, Mum says she has no complaints and the food is ok "even though she wants to go home" I think she has settled well

Very welcoming home. My mum was a resident here and we always knew she was well looked after. The regular updates of photos and videos were very welcoming and put our minds at ease. The home is always clean and tidy. My friend now goes to Woodlands for respite when I'm away on holiday, I can totally
relax when I'm away knowing that he's well cared for.

Dad was fortunate enough to have respite care at Woodlands a year ago and we were all so grateful and delighted when we found out that he could stay permanently. The change in Dad has been remarkable; from someone who didn't eat properly and didn't socialise, he is so content, eating well and enjoying
the social elements. He remains a challenge! But, that's Dad and the manager and her amazing team work with him well to maintain as much independence as possible and my brother and I will be forever grateful to you all. Thank you xxx

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.273)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.273) out of 10 for Woodlands Residential Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.4 out of 5 from 5 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 4.847 for Woodlands Residential Home is calculated as follows: ( (52 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 59 Ratings = 4.847
  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 4.426 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Woodlands Residential Home is based on 5 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 = 3.5
    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 27 registered maximum number of service users is 5.4. 5 Positive Reviews ÷ 5.4 = 0.926
  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.
