Review from Gloria D (Sister of Resident) published on 5 July 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My brother was here for a short while in receipt of palliative care. On arrival, he was delighted with his room and the setting. He really liked all of the staff who attended his needs. When end of life came, as a family we took shifts to stay with him 24/7. I cannot praise the staff who cared for him
enough. The most senior down to cleaning and tea staff all were very professional with a friendly approach. They were also very compassionate and caring toward family members.

Review from S M (Granddaughter of Resident) published on 21 February 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My grandma came in for what became end of life care. The staff were amazing, not only were they incredibly attentive to my grandma's comfort and needs, they then ensured that we and other family members were not only offered refreshments but also offered support emotionally.


As a healthcare professional

myself, it's easy to spot poor care but the Redwalls team were amazing and made, what was an incredibly difficult time, a little easier.


Thank you all.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Residence is kept as homely as possible, carpets and soft furnishings throughout. Staff manage to stay pleasant "with a smile" virtually all of the time. The whole place is kept clean and any odours kept to a minimum despite obvious problems in doing this.

Review from Jill K (Daughter of Resident) published on 14 April 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
We are very happy with the care my mother receives at Redwalls. The staff are friendly and approachable and some are loving towards my mother which is so heartwarming for a daughter to see, I have had the odd issue which has worried me but I found everyone so willing to listen to my thoughts and together
we have worked towards pleasing conclusions for mum's care. I would hope that my mother will end her days at Redwalls where I feel she is cherished by the caring staff.

I am very happy and settled at Redwalls. The staff are very kind and helpful. As I am blind, I need extra care which they are always willing to provide.

Overall, well satisfied. My wife always seems clean and weel looked after. Staff are considerate and helpful. Not easy for them as my wife is bedridden, incontinent and can be awkward and difficult.
Medical advice and help always available. Management ever available for advice and suggestions.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.605)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.605) out of 10 for Redwalls Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 32 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 32 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 4.605 for Redwalls Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (245 Excellents x 5) + (112 Goods x 4) + (18 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 375 Ratings = 4.605
  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 Redwalls Nursing Home is based on 32 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 44 registered maximum number of service users is 8.8, which has been reached with 32 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.

My background combines hands-on clinical expertise with leadership, and I’m committed to ensuring residents receive the dignity, respect, and comfort they deserve. I’m excited to be working alongside Patrick, the Home Manager, and the dedicated team here at Redwalls.
