I'm so glad I chose Pinewood to aid my recovery post-op. From entering the building you are made to feel extremely welcome. All the staff are a great testament to how you should be treated with the utmost care and compassion. Nothing is ever too much. The facilities are a wonderful statement of making
your stay feel like a home from home. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay and would highly recommend.

I have been in Pinewood for over three years and I have never had one complaint to make. I love my room. The glass door opens onto the lawn, there are shrubs and pine trees. There is a lovely view over the countryside. Everyone from the matron to the staff and cleaners are excellent. I can't say more.

I had hip replacement surgery and the day before discharge my husband tested positive for covid. He was able to book me a room at Pinewood Residental Home, Jersey for respite care. I have been most impressed with the level of care from all the staff and every meal has been delicious. I have been able
to recover in the best possible way.

The process of sending my parents-in-law to Pinewood was made very easy by the very helpful and friendly staff. They first came for a look around and had lunch, then later when they come out of hospital their transport to Pinewood was all arranged. All the queries we have are answered, the items they
require are provided with efficiency and they are enjoying the food and the environment. My father-in-law has signs of dementia and he is looked after well when he gets confused.

This is a very friendly home making me feel at ease on entering care. The staff are always welcoming, and ready to help when necessary. The rooms are nice and airy, the bathroom is user friendly.

I spent a week in our general hospital having a complete knee reconstruction. Excellent treatment after a week moved to Pinewood Nursing Home. I was there for five days. I had excellent care from the nurses and staff. I was very comfortable in an excellent, warm and exquisite care home. Very good and
thoughtful menu and food. I don't think I will eat again for some time. I really enjoyed my stay.

I have been here for 3 or 4 months. It started with being unable to get out of bed. I was sent to the hospital and then here to recover. When I had arrived here I had swollen legs and also bruises on a large part of my body. All these ailments are now cured. The care home is very good. No complaints.
Very good food. The cost of care is a bit expensive.

Mum's stay coincided with a gap between managers. The staff were all friendly and helpful, but the home lacked leadership. In the circumstances, the staff did a really good job and remained professional. Well done to them.
Reply from Helen Chevallier, Sales & Marketing Coordinator at Pinewood Residential Care Home

Thank you for taking the time to let us know about your mother’s stay, and I am pleased to hear that our staff were able to provide such a welcoming and friendly environment. They will be really delighted to hear this feedback, as it plays such an important role in motivating our team. I am delighted to announce that Marissa Kenny has now commenced as our new Home Manager and will work alongside, and lead the team forward to ensure that the high standards of care and hospitality are maintained.

There is a hotel feel to the home - your wish is their command - with excellent hotel type food and staff as well as nursing care. I have no near relatives and take care of my own expenditure but I feel quite happy about this as I know there will be help and advice if I should request it (I am 92!).

Recently my aunt was 100-years-old. Previously made plans for a large family celebration were not possible due to covid-19. Pinewood offered to provide an afternoon real party for family members and this proved to be a most joyful occasion. Throughout her time at Pinewood, my aunt has always been shown
a high level of patience, understanding and support, but on her very special day, the staff gave a commitment over and above their normal duties to provide a relaxed and memorable day for us all. The friendly warmth and care shown by the loyal staff ensure a sense of stability and security, with a strong bond being established between residents, staff and family. Management fully understands the needs of their residents and the need to communicate any concerns immediately to the family. Visitors are welcomed by smiling staff, and the whole ambience of Pinewood is one of care and comforting calm and peace.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Mother went into Pinewood in December 2018. The care she has received in the past 14 months is excellent. The facilities are all that you could wish for. The activities, for those residents who wish to take part, are daily through the weekdays with something on most mornings and afternoons. The rooms
are clean as are all the general areas. The dining room is large and bright with a lovely conservatory. Most important of all, the staff are professional, genuinely friendly and caring. The food is excellent too. I ate with Mum once a week most of the time she was there. It was restaurant quality if not better. There is never a shortage of choice. My biggest regret is that Mum's needs escalated to the point where residential care was no longer suitable, and she is now going into nursing care.
If I could turn the clock back and have her return to Pinewood, I would. I'm eyeing up a place there for myself should the time ever come!

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.545)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.545) out of 10 for Pinewood Residential Care Home 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 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 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 4.545 for Pinewood Residential Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (88 Excellents x 5) + (45 Goods x 4) + (10 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 143 Ratings = 4.545
  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 Pinewood Residential Care Home is based on 12 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 12 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.
