Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Dad has been in Willoughby Grange Care Home for 9 months this month. He has sadly been in bed that whole time but every day we go he is clean and shaved (something that was always important to him) warm and comfortable. Anytime he's had any pain or discomfort it has been dealt with quickly. To us as
a family, we are greeted every day with smiles and friendly chats from all members of staff and hugs when needed. We know that the staff have a hard job but to hear them happy in what they do is lovely.
Reply from Henrietta Encarnacion, Manager at Willoughby Grange Care Home

Hi Debbie, thank you for the lovely words of appreciation. I am sure this will make the staff and everyone in the care home happy and smiling!

Willoughby Grange Care Home is a wonderful nursing home, the emphasis is on care with love, kindness and attention to the resident. The compassion does not just stop with the resident but extends to their family members who are also going through the trauma of change or end-of-life care. They are always
willing to take time out of their busy schedule to explain the treatment given and what effect it will have. Many thanks.

My uncle received exceptional care during the three years he spent in Willoughby Grange. They were difficult times during the pandemic, but we were kept informed at all times. The staff were considerate, compassionate and very professional. Their nursing care was particularly good. We felt my uncle
was safe, happy and in extremely good hands. I wish all nursing homes had such excellent leadership.

I am very pleased with the care my grandma receives. She is happy here. The staff seem very attentive, caring and kind. My grandma is always clean, well-fed and monitored to ensure she is eating and drinking enough. Staff ensure that Grandma also has clean clothes; they are washed regularly.

Review from Valerie W (Mother of Resident) published on 14 December 2021 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My mum came from a different care home to Willoughby Grange underweight, very frightened and very sad. With her having dementia this was very worrying but after being in Willoughby Grange for a few weeks she has put on weight and was smiling. She can get very aggressive with the carers because of her
dementia but all the carers are gentle and kind to her and with their patience they have built her trust.

My mother has recently moved to Willoughby Grange. I have found the kindness of the staff brilliant. She wants for nothing, and although, is taking some time to settle in, she is treated with respect and her wishes are considered always. I am extremely happy with the care she is receiving from you.

The family of the resident are very happy with the care and environment. We feel our family member's needs are very well catered for and the staff know our family member very well. The care home is friendly and the company that owns it appears to be investing to make improvements.

I am really glad my mum is in Willoughby Grange. I have experienced other homes and they do not come close to the care and friendliness of the staff. All of the staff are kind and helpful and will talk to you and answer any questions. Everywhere is kept nice and nothing is too much trouble when Mum
needs anything.

I can't speak highly enough of the manager and staff at Willoughby Grange. My parents have been so lucky to have been cared for by this outstanding place. As a family, decisions and complications when deciding what is best for your loved ones are traumatic and heartbreaking, but I can truly say that
this home has engaged with us (4 siblings) and helped us through what has been harrowing times as both parents have been very ill. They go the extra mile, and we all have been treated with nothing but kindness and consideration. First-class.

Care home standard: rooms are clean, tidy and staff are excellent. The downstairs need to be replaced with PVC, other floors are already done. There is now not a minibus as before to take residents out. Also, the outside space could be better used, a courtyard.

My mother has been a resident of Willoughby Grange Care Home for four weeks. The staff are very professional, helpful and very caring. I would have no reservations in recommending Willoughby Grange to any person considering this care home for their loved ones. Also a special thanks to one particular
Nurse who looked after Mum really well.

Current Review Score: 8.3 (8.311)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.3 (8.311) out of 10 for Willoughby Grange Care 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 3 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.6 out of 5 from 3 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 4.676 for Willoughby Grange Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (23 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 34 Ratings = 4.676
  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 3.635 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Willoughby Grange Care Home is based on 3 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 = 3.25
    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 39 registered maximum number of service users is 7.8. 3 Positive Reviews ÷ 7.8 = 0.385
  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.
