Review from Mark C (Son of Resident) published on 14 May 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Westley Court provided a much-needed lifeline to us when we needed it most. With very little notice, we were offered the standard of care that was critically needed and as well as individual attention and professionalism. It's rare to find somewhere that offers the right atmosphere and a dedicated team
of people who take their time to get to know the patients and their family which can make a difference in challenging times. Continuity in times of need becomes crucial and we found it helpful to see familiar faces and be able to communicate with a core team of carers on an ongoing basis. As a family, we were able to leave each evening knowing that appropriate care was provided leaving us with peace of mind in difficult circumstances and get some much-needed rest ourselves. The situation is perfect - lovely countryside surroundings which was uplifting and offered respite when times demanded it! All in all, a complete package offering good quality, friendly and attentive nursing care.

Review from Valerie S (Daughter-in-law of Resident) published on 29 January 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father was in Westley Court care for almost 3 years and in that time, he was treated with the utmost care, love, support and dignity and us, as a family, were always made to feel we always had peace of mind, knowing he was being looked after, by such a wonderful time of brilliant staff, manager,
nurses, carers and all other members of the team too many to mention, but never to be forgotten.
Unfortunately, my father passed away in February 2017.


We are now in a position were my father-in-law needed to go in to care and Westley Court came to our rescue, once again, without any hesitation and made the procedure very easy for us.


In the 2 months he has been at Westley Court, he has received more attention and fantastic care by all the staff than he ever did in the 2 months he spent at the hospital, in Shropshire.


We as a family, have now had 2 family members cared for at Westley Court and have never once ever felt the need to complain.


We thoroughly recommend Westley Court

Review from Amanda G (Daughter of Resident) published on 26 June 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
It was a very difficult decision, having to find a suitable care home for our father for his end of life care, but we felt that we made the right decision choosing Westley Court. The staff were very friendly and kind and attentive and our father always looked clean and comfortable. Unfortunately, Dad
was only there for just over 2 weeks in the end but at least he passed away peacefully and painlessly.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I can only say that Westley Court is an excellent nursing home and I am so lucky that my husband is being cared for there.
The staff are wonderful, kind, caring and very thorough.
They go the extra mile for their patients and the nursing home itself has a lovely atmosphere, is beautifully decorated
and the rooms are light, stylish and very comfortable.
I would only say that in my estimate this is certainly a five-star establishment.

The apartment is always clean, warm and tidy, with no clutter to fall over. The staff have always been obliging and helpful from management to the cleaners and door staff. Nothing seems to be too much trouble. Help always on hand when required.

From the inspection visit before my father arrived, the manager was welcoming and very professional. The room was wonderful, Dad loved his room on arrival. Every member of staff have been amazing and the home and grounds are brilliant.

A care home isn't your true home, however Westley Court has become a close second to my husband. The staff are friendly and compassionate but always remaining professional at all times. There is a caring atmosphere from the receptionists, cleaners, carers, nurses and management. Over what has been a
huge change in our families life they have given support.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.492)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.492) out of 10 for Westley Court is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 4.492 for Westley Court is calculated as follows: ( (117 Excellents x 5) + (59 Goods x 4) + (14 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (2 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 193 Ratings = 4.492
  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 Westley Court is based on 16 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 33 registered maximum number of service users is 6.6, which has been reached with 16 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.
