Review from A E (Daughter-in-law of Resident) published on 27 May 2022 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum was transferred here from the hospital to recuperate. All the staff I have met or spoken to on the phone have always been cheerful and helpful, despite how busy they are. Mum is happy and settled and we feel very well cared for. Her room was decorated for her birthday and the chef baked a cake for
our visit. Such helpful, welcoming people make the fact that Mum needs to be in a home much less upsetting and we are grateful for their care and attention. The home is clean and well decorated with a variety of spaces for residents to relax in.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My Grandmother was transferred from Hospital to Woodlands Ridge Nursing Home. She spent the last 4 months of her life here.
When she moved in the manager was helpful and reassuring. All questions I had were answered quickly and moving in was a smooth transition.
The staff were always helpful, kind,
caring and able to answer any practical questions or direct questions relating to health. The home were proactive in contacting the doctor as necessary and keeping me informed. Whenever I called up they were helpful and knew exactly the details on her care.
Towards the end of her life, the home were supportive and compassionate. They have some exceptional staff who kept our families wishes. If we had a question it was never too much trouble even though they were busy.

Review from P S (Son of Resident) published on 9 September 2021 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
From the moment mum arrived at Woodlands the staff have been excellent throughout. Everyone there speaks to mum and make her feel special and a part of her new environment. All the care team are professional, helpful and kind nothing is left to chance. The cleanliness, room size and 100% caring support
is outstanding.
All the staff treat her with dignity and always try to get mum involved in shared tasks the staff carry out this makes mum feel needed and content. The food is plentiful and mealtimes and the many various activities all help mum to stay active and date. Arranging a visit is easy and are always booked so mum has a full and interesting day. The staff always have mum ready when I arrive so there is good communication within the whole team.
Safety is good and I feel that within the care team everyone is always looked after closely.
I could not be more pleased that mum is in Woodland Ridge.

Review from Jackie M (Daughter of Resident) published on 25 May 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The staff were so lovely and caring. They really looked after my mother in her final days. The room was very pleasant and clean and my mother thought the food was wonderful. I would definitely recommend the home to others looking for a nursing home. Due to COVID, I am not able to comment on activities
offered in normal times.

Review from Rachel C (Daughter of Resident) published on 20 October 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My dad stayed here for a few weeks before his passing from vascular dementia.
The care he received was exactly what he needed, and the staff were all so kind to him, treating him with compassion and dignity every step of the way. They were also lovely to his family and genuinely cared about how we
were feeling. The home was lovely and clean too. We take great comfort knowing Dad was so well cared for and that he was treated as he deserved.
Reply from Natalie Allen, Operations Support at Woodlands Ridge Nursing Home

Review from Fran H (Daughter of Resident) published on 30 August 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Relinquishing care of a loved one to a third party was not easy and we just wanted somewhere safe and happy. We chose Woodlands Ridge because we believed in the " We work in your home" ethos and were very happy with what we had seen on our visit. The location, building and garden make it a wonderful
place to be living and the room is bright and spacious with contemporary, comfortable furnishings. There are a variety of activities undertaken and staff work extremely hard to include everyone and keep them entertained. It is a shame that the level of staffing makes it difficult for carers to spend any extra time with the residents. They are constantly answering call buzzers and sometimes cannot respond as quickly as they would like. None-the-less they carry out their jobs with smiles and caring hearts. Considering nowhere was ever going to be like home I think we made the right choice. I just wish that profit margins were not an issue in the care home business.

The home is well run, with staff and management committed to providing a service to the residents which is caring, friendly and thoughtful. Occasionally faults do occur, which, when pointed out, are rectified quickly. I am very happy having my wife here, and wouldn't wish her to be anywhere else.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.400)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.400) out of 10 for Woodlands Ridge Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.700 for Woodlands Ridge Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (60 Excellents x 5) + (16 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 80 Ratings = 4.7
  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 4.7 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Woodlands Ridge Nursing Home 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:

    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 = 3.7
    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 20 registered maximum number of service users is 4, which has been reached with 7 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.
