Review from Philip C (Son of Resident) published on 15 April 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Mother has been a resident of Rose Cottage for three years and sadly passed away, whilst in their care recently. My family and I have nothing but the highest praise for the management and all the staff. I have found it difficult to visit, simply because I live five hours away, but whenever I have
and sometimes my visits have been unannounced, Mother has always been appropriately clean and dressed, with her hair brushed and makeup on, including nail polish applied. This, to me, shows the attention to detail and minutiae that the staff go to to ensure the welfare of the residents. The staff have always shown us the greatest kindness and their care of my Mother has been exemplary. Rose Cottage is definitely in need of some maintenance and when viewed for the first time, its external appearance may be offputting. However, for anyone considering using the service, please do not be influenced by its appearance, as the service offered here is second to none and I can’t rate it highly enough.

My mum has been a resident of Rose Cottage for eight months now.
My family and I are very pleased with the care and attention she receives here. The staff are so nice and very patient, and every aspect of care is taken to ensure she is happy and has all she needs.
We don’t think we could have found
anywhere better.
Mum is quite content here and is aware herself, of how kind the staff are.
We would recommend this nursing home without a doubt

Rose Cottage has been a lovely, safe, friendly home to my Mother who enjoyed the company of the staff and the residents. She enjoyed the cosy atmosphere of a smaller establishment. she enjoyed sitting in an area with other residents, where she could see the staff walking about doing their daily work.

I highly recommend this home to service users who require assistance and support with their activities of daily living. They provide excellent care and maintain dignity and respect by ensuring that a person-centred care is delivered at all times. They have a fantastic management system and the staff
deliver care in a professional and respectful manner.

Review from Janice M (Daughter of Resident) published on 10 April 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Can relax knowing dad is respected and cared for in a dignified professional manner. The staff all work to together to provide for physical and mental needs. I am regularly kept up to date with his needs and staff always find time to talk to me if I have concerns.


His room is always clean and dad

is made comfortable where ever he chooses to sit in communal areas.
His dietary needs are provided for adequately.


Dad participates in most of the activities and is encouraged to do so.
Triangular care is in evidence as is safeguarding.


I am so happy I choose this home for my dad.

My father entered Rose Cottage in August 2017. He has been met with care, compassion and kindness. He is currently 102 and had been living alone since my mother passed away six years ago. It was obviously a very big decision for the family but has proved to be a good decision for Dad. He is happy
and content and joins in with the daily activities. The staff are unfailingly kind to him and very helpful to the family. An excellent care home which can be recommended.

My Mum has been a resident for over a year and is very happy at Rose Cottage, she is often complimentary of the food! My family and I have always found the management and staff to be most helpful and cheerful, which goes a long way in creating a comfortable and homely environment for residents and
welcoming for visitors. We feel relaxed and assured that our Mum is in very good hands.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Very well run nursing home, lovely atmosphere, calm, supportive, happy and nothing too much trouble.
Staff always helpful, thoughtful and friendly both to residents and visitors alike (love my cups of tea)
I'm very happy with my husband being a resident, just knowing the care is always there I can
relax.
I am always informed straight away of any medical issues and if a doctor has been called, also I am always able to discuss any concerns I may have about my husband with staff nurses.

Review from Jamie H (Son of Resident) published on 23 January 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I believe the best decision we made as a family on my Dad’s behalf was to place him in the care of Rose Cottage back in early 2014. Whilst Dad’s deteriorating health in the ensuing 3 years was obviously difficult, the care, nursing support and loving family atmosphere at Rose Cottage were key to his
motivation and aiding his very determined fight against dementia, stroke and disabilities. I know he greatly enjoyed his interactions with the staff at Rose Cottage and I will always be grateful for their help in maintaining as much quality of life for him as possible in the circumstances.


I take great comfort in the fact my Dad lived a long and good life and in his last years, never felt loneliness or uncared for. The latter was in no small part due to Rose Cottage.

Rose cottage has a friendly homely feel as soon as you step through the door and my nan couldn't be happier since she became a resident there. Staff are always friendly and attentive. The management and staff provide an excellent service and you are always greeted in a friendly yet professional way
and residents are treated with respect. They provide a variety of activities and when possible visits and days out. Special occasions like Christmas Day has a lovely atmosphere which makes it a special time for the residents and visitors alike.

Nan loves it at Rose Cottage. The staff are wonderful and look after the residents very well.
They have activities for all the people which all of them love.
The Cottage is in a quiet area of Swindon and is always very clean.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.913)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.913) out of 10 for Rose Cottage Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 14 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 4.913 for Rose Cottage Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (147 Excellents x 5) + (14 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 161 Ratings = 4.913
  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 Rose Cottage Nursing Home is based on 14 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 21 registered maximum number of service users is 4.2, which has been reached with 14 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.
