It wasn't clear where the reception was and the office that would have been it, seemed to be a store. But the Manager's office was next door and she told me what to do. She took me to the room of my friend. I noticed the notes folder being accessible. The notes were good and up to date. It also listed
the regularity of attendance to my friend. Excellent!

Reply from Sarah Wilson, Operations and HR Assistant at Westwood Hall Nursing Home

Thank you very much for your positive feedback in relation to your friend’s care. Our Home Administrator was away during your visit, and for safety, whilst a delivery was received at the home, the delivery boxes were placed into her office, whilst they were awaiting checking in.

As a family we are very pleased with the care and attention given to our brother-in-law/uncle. He himself speaks very highly of all staff, after just 3 weeks here his well-being is very much improved and we are all feeling very much better.

Mum has been at Westwood Hall for 8 months. We have been very reassured by the care and attention she receives from all the staff who are all be very caring and friendly taking time to talk to her (and the family when we visit). Mum has settled in well and has been enjoying the beautiful room overlooking
wildlife in the well-kept gardens that she has been moved to. The food appears to be home cooked on the times we have been there at mealtimes. There are plenty of activities advertised for her to join in if she wanted to although, at the moment, she is content to stay in her room. The very few problems that have occurred have been dealt with quickly and efficiently by management and all staff including the odd job man who is also very helpful.

My brother-in-law was cared for by the staff at Westwood Hall for several weeks prior to his death on October 12th 2018. The care was the type that money can't buy. They put the word "care" into care home. Not only was my brother-in-law cared for but his wife who has cancer was also looked after and
she was able to spend nights and days with him up to the end. Every single member of staff was there for her and her husband during this very, very sad time.

Mum was admitted with terminal cancer. Her prognosis was very poor but she rallied immediately and eventually passed away some five weeks later. Her care was exceptionally good with an excellent ratio of carer to resident. Mum was confined to her room throughout so I cannot speak about the activities
etc...

Mum was resident for 3 months at Westwood Hall and recently passed away within the nursing home. During her stay we were pleased with the care and attention she received from the nurses and carers.
As a family we visited frequently and were met with kindness and support from the staff.
Although
mum's stay was brief it gave us confidence and peace of mind that she was being well looked after by the manager and her team. Mum herself was fond of the staff and was able to trust them during care interventions. Thank you to all at Westwood Hall.

We have been very pleased with my mother's care. The staff have been informative, friendly and respectful. My mother loves the staff. She finds it difficult to communicate with other residents due to hearing, eyesight and dementia.


The staff always let us know if there is any change in her condition,

falls or injuries. The staff are all very caring and kind. We can leave Mum, confident they will look after her to the best of their ability, also the girl who arranges activities is excellent. Carry on the good work.

My experience with WHNH covers about five years during which they have cared for my brother now 90 years old. From the initial welcome, we have always found the home and it's staff and management to provide a high standard of care in a wholesome and congenial atmosphere. As a result, my brother in well
looked after and content while my own communication with the home has always been very satisfactory.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.622)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.622) out of 10 for Westwood Hall Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 11 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 4.622 for Westwood Hall Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (117 Excellents x 5) + (14 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (8 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 143 Ratings = 4.622

  • 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 Westwood Hall Nursing Home is based on 11 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 52 registered maximum number of service users is 10.4, which has been reached with 11 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.
