Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
The Coppice is a very relaxed and friendly ho,e, clean and with a great atmosphere. The staff were always cheerful and helpful. and looked after mum so I knew she was in safe hands. The nursing staff were brilliant, on top of mum's medical needs and always answering any questions I had about her conditions.
In particular during mum's final weeks she was treated with great dignity and respect and ensured she was comfortable to the very end.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My husband has been a resident at The Coppice Nursing Home since March 2024. His room, bedding, his clothes and my husband himself are always clean. The laundry facilities are excellent and he always seems comfortable and settled. The management is excellent at running The Coppice, she is very approachable
and takes on board any concerns. I visit my husband almost every day, the staff are hard working, some excellent, some very good, some do their best if more staff were available it would take the pressure off the existing staff. This would reflect better care for all the residents.

My grandad's notes stated he was 1:1 and was accepted given the advice he was 1:1. However this went totally unnoticed in the care home and my grandad was left and fell out of the chair as he wasn't being monitored and the care home didn't seem to care, the manager, or even apologise. Avoid.

Review from Chantelle G (Granddaughter of Resident) published on 29 January 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
Absolutely disgusting care home. My grandad was discharged from hospital and went to this home. He arrived at 1.30pm, by 8.30pm they rang and said he had fell out of a chair. He's a 1:1 patient and shouldn't have been left whilst it took 2 members of staff to get the brew trolley and then when we asked
what happened nobody knew because nobody was there. Nobody has contacted us to see how he is. There are never any members of staff around when you go in, this home is awful.
Reply from Freddie Cohen, Regional Manager at The Coppice Nursing Home

Whilst it is our company policy not to respond to details within reviews, this review is factually incorrect in multiple ways. 1. The Coppice does not accept residents with a 1-1. This resident was not discharged from hospital with a 1-1 as part of the assessment so would not have a member of staff with them consistently as part of the package of care. 2. On our electric care planning two members of your family were contacted following the incident. This is all logged and tracked. 3. Your grandfather was in the home for five hours. He arrived around tea time. You have made a very general statement that there are never staff around. Our manager and her team have provided outstanding care since 2013 and only had Good CQC inspections. This review is factually incorrect and is a shame to all the hard work put in by the team.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
What a wonderful home with a dedicated, kind, caring team of staff. This is a 'home from home'.
From the first visit, the atmosphere and welcome was like no other. My dad has been welcomed from day one. He has been treated with kindness and genuine warmth.
The staff, domestics, carers and management
are all friendly, helpful and have time for residents and families. The level of care is outstanding. There are always staff around to assist.
My dad is treated with dignity, lots of patience and person-centred care.
We feel as a family, blessed to have found such a wonderful place for our dad.
Would highly recommend!

Since my mother has been in The Coppice Nursing Home for two years, there have been quite a few ups and downs with her health but the care she has received gets her through and at 97 years old, that's all you can hope for. The staff do a really good job in all aspects of care and you appreciate what
a difficult job they have.

My husband has been a resident in the home since February 2017 and he has received excellent care from all the staff. I have found the care workers to be very friendly and caring. The atmosphere in the home is always very pleasant with lots of activities organised in the afternoons. The Management are
always approachable and helpful and have given me lots of support. I am very happy and satisfied with the level of care given.

It was a pleasure to be able to recommend The Coppice to another relative requiring Respite. The team here continue to provide outstanding standards of care & the tremendous work/achievements they have made with our Mum since her move here from another home are breathtaking.
Staff are always kind,
courteous, happy, professional & a pleasure to come into contact with. Nothing is too much trouble. Mum is "blooming" since her move to The Coppice & it's all thanks to meticulous attention to detail & CARING - thank you!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Dad has been a resident since November 2016 due to his rapidly deteriorating condition with Parkinson's and dementia.
Whilst it has been a traumatic time in all out lives Coppice is helping us through.


Right from the moment I first looked around the home I have ben impressed by-
- Level of care;

commitment from every member of staff from top management to maintenance and domestic help.
- The level of awareness/response to health and wellbeing of the resident - quickly acted upon and resolved as efficiently, professionally and kindly as possible.
- Welcoming, friendly feel right from the moment one steps through the door.
- Pleasant music plays.
- Clean, fresh smell.
- The bustle of work is one of calm efficincey.
- Food/choice offered is superb.
- Mealtimes offer highlights in each day.
- Activities/entertainment pay attention to the needs, abilities and preferences of the residents.
- There often being laugh or two to be had too, adding to the overall pleasant feel of the place.
- Family always being made to feel welcome. The awareness of our emotional difficulties is also acknowledged and we too are supported in a kind, caring and understanding way.
- Care with a capital "C" in every aspect of daily life.

I have been a resident here since April 2016.
I wasn't happy about being in a nursing home as I have always been very independent.
However, due to various long-term illnesses, I had no choice.
I am now very settled here and have met some lovely people.
We do various activities during the week and
also have artists performing on a regular basis.
I have definitely got a better quality of life and realise now that I could not have coped living on my own.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My brother and I viewed The Coppice Nursing Home in April 2016 (without prior notification).
I had looked at a few other nursing homes which were absolutely fine but I knew from the minute the door opened that The Coppice was the place I felt my Mum would be happiest.
The carer that showed us round
was absolutely genuine (and still is). Everything about it felt like home from home.
It did take my Mum a while to adjust but she is very happy now. She has made some lovely friends and gets along with the staff.
It is a huge weight off our minds knowing she is being well cared for.

Current Review Score: 7.8 (7.796)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 7.8 (7.796) out of 10 for The Coppice Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 3.7 out of 5 from 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.1 out of 5 from 5 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 3.728 for The Coppice Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (38 Excellents x 5) + (19 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) + (18 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 81 Ratings = 3.728
  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 4.068 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Coppice Nursing Home is based on 5 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 = 3.5
    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 44 registered maximum number of service users is 8.8. 5 Positive Reviews ÷ 8.8 = 0.568
  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.
