I came to visit my auntie and I can honestly say the home is so beautiful, the new garden is a more than welcome addition. The staff were welcoming, warm and friendly, and it was nice to see the manager helping a resident. Great job, team.

Kind caring environment.
Respectful of Dad's needs and illness - vascular dementia is a mostly cruel illness - we appreciate everything Willersley House does for all family members/friends.

Review from Diane L (Daughter of Resident) published on 24 October 2024 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Staff at Willersley are kind and caring and know the residents, always referring to them by name. While I accept that my mum always cooked with fresh ingredients when she lived at home, she is on the whole very disappointed by the standard/variety of food at meal times. The soup and sandwich menu offering
causes upset along with meat - chicken, beef, fish etc. and some of the vegetable servings. Staffing in the kitchen also appears to be a problem.
Reply from Rebecca Blakeston, Home Manager at Willersley House

Thank you for your review. I am delighted that you find our team kind and caring and know the residents. I am sorry that your mum finds the food disappointing. It would be useful to meet with you to discuss specific concerns so that these can be addressed and improvements made. We always value feedback so that we can give the best possible care to all of our residents.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.487)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.487) out of 10 for Willersley House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 20 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 4.487 for Willersley House is calculated as follows: ( (123 Excellents x 5) + (107 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 236 Ratings = 4.487
  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 Willersley House is based on 20 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 34 registered maximum number of service users is 6.8, which has been reached with 20 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.
