My Aunty was in the care home for five years and was always extremely well cared for.
All staff are lovely and caring and I was very impressed with the excellent attention given to her when she was dying from Alzheimers disease.
She had been very challenging to look after the last two years as was
doubly incontinent, couldn't walk and had to have her food cut up minutely and be fed by staff, but they patiently did all this for her in a very caring way.
She used to enjoy the events at the home put on for the residents, and the sing songs before she was too ill to attend.
I was so happy with her treatment and care I didn't hesitate to recommend the home for my father-in-law, and he is in there now receiving excellent care, although he is seriously ill at the moment.
Would like to thank all the staff for the wonderful care they've given to my relatives over the years!

We find Wellburn House a very welcoming and friendly environment. The staff are very attentive and caring. My nanna has been in here for over a year and she has received excellent professional care from all staff. It is a pleasure to visit and like a home from home and would recommend this home to anyone.

We have nothing but praise for the staff at Wellburn, during some traumatic times their experience and dedication has been outstanding. They are truly a bunch of hardworking, caring people, and are a credit to their profession.

Could not have chosen a better care home, the staff are all amazing they really care about the residents. The food always looks great and its brilliant having fruit and snacks available at all times. I always feel really welcome and nothing is too much trouble. When/if my time comes this is the place
for me.

Staff at Wellburn House cared for "me mam" with unstinting care, compassion and professionalism throughout her stay there; not only for her, but for us the whole family.


Our world is blessed with such places and people as we observed the staff's interaction and care towards other residents and visitors

alike, coping with difficult times in all their lives.


We particularly liked the "snack table" which was accessible to all.

Current Review Score: 9.1 (9.147)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.1 (9.147) out of 10 for Wellburn House Care Centre is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.2 out of 5 from 8 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 4.903 for Wellburn House Care Centre is calculated as follows: ( (85 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 93 Ratings = 4.903

  • 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 4.244 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Wellburn House Care Centre is based on 8 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 + 0.1 = 3.8

    • 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 90 registered maximum number of service users is 18. 8 Positive Reviews ÷ 18 = 0.444

  • 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.
