Mom has been at Waterside since July 2018. She is very comfortable and well looked after by the staff. Activities are excellent and varied and management very approachable. When I leave Mom I am always happy knowing that she is in a safe environment and well cared for which means so much.

Mom came in October 2018, she had a grade 4 compression sore and was very poorly medically and confused mentally.
Mom has received amazing care, her sore is slowly healing, progress is very positive and she is monitored daily and given the equipment she needs to recover.
She has well-balanced meals
which mom loves and have helped her also to grow in strength. I am always able to get an update on mom's progress without making an appointment. Staff always make time to see me.

Dad received end of life care and was treated with tolerance, dignity and respect by all members of staff. Management made a point of meeting us. Rooms are being constantly cleaned. Food menu caters for all and is varied and of good quality. Staff are always helpful despite being really busy and nurses
always available for questions. Would recommend this home to other people in the same position.

My aunt has received excellent care. She prefers her own company but June has managed to bring her out of her shell and get involved which had improved her standard of living enormously. June works hard considering she is spread between 60 service users. I can not fault the care.

We as a family would like to show our appreciation to the General Manager.
She always acknowledges us by name, with a warm and welcoming smile, comes into the lounge and greets all residents including my mom in a way she understands. Her greatest attribute is she sees the positive in people. Excellent
people skills.

Lovely setting by canal. Clean and well-maintained manager engaged with me and my grandmother from the start and took a real interest. Care and nursing staff happy to help. Grandmother has been receiving respite care. We have had experience of other home and this one is a breath of fresh air. Well done.

Waterside was a real surprise to me. It is welcoming and comfortable in every aspect. The standard of cleanliness is excellent as is the standard of care. All of the staff work as a team and that is very noticeable. The food is well presented and satisfying. I can find no fault at all!

My sister came in following a period of not eating and was very frail and underweight. The excellent food offered with staff encouragement has meant that she has gained weight and is in a much better state of health. She has been happy here but wishes to return home, but wouldn't be able to do this
without the excellent care she has received. Her stay has taken a huge amount of stress off me and the staff have been kind, helpful and friendly to me.

Mom came to Waterside for intermediate care. The staff were very welcoming and caring from the start. There is an excellent standard of care and consistency in carers here. Mom is blind and her health and mood have deteriorated rapidly, the staff have been very supportive to Mom and all the family,
and we are assured of her safety.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.684)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.684) out of 10 for Waterside Care Home 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 26 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 25 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 4.684 for Waterside Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (225 Excellents x 5) + (70 Goods x 4) + (9 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 307 Ratings = 4.684

  • 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 Waterside Care Home is based on 25 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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, which has been reached with 25 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.
