My husband is content at Welshwood and happy with all the friendly staff there in all areas. Welshwood is a relatively small home which makes it so much more 'homely' with residents knowing staff and a few residents they can easily interact with.
It is a home I would and have recommended.
Visitors
always made welcome at any time.

My wife was a resident here for 9 months. The home has a relaxed, open, friendly feel. The staff are caring, friendly, understanding and helpful. All of this is a reflection on the welcoming attitude of the relatively new management team who are striving to improve the home and the whole experience
for the residents. I would recommend this home under its current leadership.
It helps that the home is situated in a quiet, semi-rural area, with a pleasant garden and easy access.

My mum has been a resident here since August 2021. She is very well looked after by kind, caring and compassionate staff. The home is very well managed by people who have the residents' best interests at heart as well as ensuring the long-term security of the facility. Access to the senior team is good
and conversations are conducted professionally, respectfully and with good humour. I was fortunate to know a family whose loved ones had benefited from being placed at this home, so when making a choice for my own mum, I was always confident that she would be safe, secure and well looked after. I recommend this home.

Mum has been a resident here for a year and loves it. The staff are lovely and very caring and considerate and look after mum well. When she moved in her physical and mental health had declined but she has improved here. She feels secure and supported which has helped.
Welshwood Manor is in lovely
quiet surroundings and is well-maintained. I would recommend it.

My friend has been at the home since February 2023. She is relatively young (55yrs). We have been facing a number of health issues and the complications that brings. All of the staff are patient and kind to both of us. The journey is a tough one but made bearable by the staff who have shown me fantastic
support as well as my friend.
My friend will say she loves the food especially the roasts and at this time strawberry milkshake. Everywhere is wonderfully clean and I feel safe in the knowledge that she is being cared for with respect and dignity.

The home is warm and welcoming and the garden is superb; when weather is inclement it can be enjoyed from the conservatory or, weather permitting, you can sit out and enjoy it. The staff are brilliant with my father, he was admitted in September 2022 and I couldn’t wish for a better placement for him.
The care he gets is impeccable.

The staff at the Welshwood Manor have shown great care and compassion for Mum as she begins to come to terms with the loss of Dad who died with her at his side in the home in December. They have encouraged Mum to integrate with other residents and to take part in activities. The staff have also ensured
that Mum's increasingly complex care needs are monitored and arranged the interaction of physio and occupational therapy. All staff continue to show all of us great understanding after the loss of Dad. Thank you.

My sister has been at Welshwood Manor for just over a year. She’s so happy and content, it’s a delightful visit every time, seeing her face light up when I visit. She calls all the staff family and says she loves them all. She enjoys the activities, especially bingo. There is always lots of fun and

We often have issues with my husband's eating and drinking but guided and supported by the care and patience of the staff his needs are looked after.

It was a difficult decision to move my nana into a care home, but she has now been settled at Welshwood Manor for almost two years. During that time, the care staff have shown her kindness and compassion, treated her with dignity and looked after her physical and emotional needs to the highest standard.
The home is clean and welcoming, and the care staff ensure she is happy. They treat her like family, and I could not wish for more. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I would wholeheartedly recommend Welshwood Manor.

My mother spent the last month of her life at Welshwood Manor. From the moment we arrived via ambulance we could not ask for anything more. The staff were amazing - kind, caring and always with a happy demeanour. Not only to Mum but to all the family that visited. Mum loved the chats about her life
and family - people took time with her and were genuinely interested. The day she died everyone was so very nice. I would truly recommend any family member to this fabulous care home.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.423)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.423) out of 10 for Welshwood Manor is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 7 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 4.723 for Welshwood Manor is calculated as follows: ( (60 Excellents x 5) + (23 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 83 Ratings = 4.723

  • 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 4.7 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Welshwood Manor is based on 7 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 = 3.7

    • 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 34 registered maximum number of service users is 6.8, which has been reached with 7 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • 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.
