The care home is close to the beaches of Bournemouth and Poole and air, road and rail links (the mainline train station is just five minutes away) are excellent for visiting family and friends.

The only thing we can complain about is the laundry. Things are in the room returned from the laundry which are not my dad's and after screwed up in the drawer.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5

Most of the permanent carers and nurses are excellent - caring, patient, cheerful and professional. However, there appears to be an undue reliance on temporary agency staff, especially at weekends. These appear to be much less well trained, and lacking knowledge of the individual needs of residents.
Response
to the call bells is poor - frequently more than 30 minutes, also, there needs to be a means of distinguishing between routine calls and emergencies eg. "I have fallen".
Prices are expensive and continually increasing at greater than general inflation.

Extremely happy and confident with the quality of service being provided to my mother. Due to her illness, her behaviour can be both erratic and challenging. However, staff have a good understanding and deal with those challenges in a controlled and professional manner, ensuring her needs are met and
her dignity maintained. Staff are both friendly and professional and keep me well informed regarding her care and any complications that may arise.


Overall, very happy with the quality of service provided to my mother and would recommend the home to others in a similar situation.

My Dad has settled in well and staff are very helpful when I ring or visit. The family Xmas party was lovely and my daughter and I enjoyed being there with everyone. Please do it again next year.
I was worried about Dad over Xmas as he seemed really not with it when I visited but the staff found out
he was dehydrated and he seemed much better on our last visit.
He really enjoys the food and maybe a bit too much as I needed to buy bigger clothes!! Any problems the staff have rung me and it gives me peace of mind knowing they are looking after him.

Sunrise of Westbourne provide very nice rooms, friendly staff and a good standard of service, but naturally, residents do not always wish to be in a care home. However, this one I believe is one of the best.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.985)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.985) out of 10 for Westbourne Tower Care Home - Avery Collection is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 60 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 60 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 4.985 for Westbourne Tower Care Home - Avery Collection is calculated as follows: ( (704 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 713 Ratings = 4.985

  • 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Westbourne Tower Care Home - Avery Collection is based on 60 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 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • 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 114 registered maximum number of service users is 22.8, which has been reached with 60 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.

Job Title: Deputy Manager

Joined: 2008

I have been working in Westbourne Tower Care Home for over 15 years. I have progressed throughout the company from Care Assistant to Lead Care to Reminiscence Coordinator and now Deputy Manager.

Steve Bishop

Job Title: Dining Service Co-ordinator

Joined: 2007

I have been here since it opened in 2006. I can’t believe how time has flown by. Although I already had the skill set I was working as a Bank Chef alongside my own business and was asked to take on the managerial role which was an easy transition. I trained and worked in London, Morocco, France and Italy before returning to the UK and settling in Bournemouth. My food specialities are multicultural and the residents love it when I do theme days. I have been a major part of this home being awarded CQC Outstanding, the CQC assessor loved my secret ingredient “ a bit of love”. I run a monthly Dining Committee where residents can influence what is on the menu, likes and dislikes and I love nothing more than walking around the dining room on a daily basis to ensure their wishes have been followed. I like to surprise residents with their favourite dishes, for special occasions. I have to say I love my job and my residents make me smile every day. I am proud to say I work here.

Kim

Kim Newton

Job Title: Activities Coordinator

Joined: 2018

I am delighted to have been recently appointed for this important role, in delivering a varied, stimulating and educational programme for our residents. I like to think outside the box and ongoing feedback from our residents, it enables my talented activity team to deliver, along with our team of amazing volunteers. I bring to the role my experience of managing teams, Interior Design, Floristry, Art, and Teaching and I even played table tennis for Wales! I am inspired by talking to our residents and finding out what they enjoy and what makes them smile, whether that's an entertainer, Tai Chi, Music Therapy, Camera or Theatre Club or 1 to 1 person-centred activities. 110% is put into everything we do here.

Wendy

Wendy Blow

Job Title: Senior Director of Customer Relations

Joined: 2006

I have worked here since 2006, and the things that have remained constant throughout that time are the love, dedication and unfaltering kindness my colleagues deliver every day. No two days are the same; there is always something going on which makes you smile and our residents become part of our extended family. We are committed to filling their days with happy moments.


My role is to market our home and welcome new residents into it, dealing with professionals and family members. Making a significant decision at a critical time is made easy when we have a beautiful product, lovely food, a great activities programme (including minibus outings) and caring staff, all coupled with happy appreciative residents and family members, this is borne out by our positive carehome.co.uk reviews.

Job Title: Nurse Care Manager

Joined: 2022

I have worked in the care sector since 2012, predominantly in dedicated dementia homes. I have been in co-ordinating positions since 2016. I am currently studying to become a Nursing Associate and my ultimate goal is to become a Registered Nurse. I am passionate about person-centred care and ensuring that our residents live their lives as well as they wish, always upholding their wishes and preferences.

In my personal life, I am married and live in Southbourne. I love the beach, especially in the autumn. In my spare time, I love to read criminal and mystery books and take walks down the beach. I am also an unashamed Harry Potter fan.
