In the short time (3 weeks) that my Mum has been a resident at the home I have noticed the consistent care and support provided by all members of the home's staff. They have helped her to make the enormous transition from her home life to a care environment. All staff are approachable and encourage
all my family to participate in the care needs of our Mum. I would not hesitate to recommend this service provider to anyone.

Our father came to Wyndthorpe Gardens from hospital on 'end of life' care. It was a very distressing time for our family but the care, respect and compassion of all the care home staff was exemplary. Our father was expected to live only a matter of weeks but the attentiveness, commitment to caring and
constant encouragement from staff gave him the ability to regain strength, so much so that he was even able to 'dance' again. Wyndthorpe Gardens regularly have events where activities or entertainment are provided. Dad was captured on camera dancing to Frank Sinatra Tribute Act, it's a very precious memory as Dad loved dancing before his Alzheimer's diagnosis. We will be forever grateful to Wyndthorpe Gardens for looking after Dad when we were no longer able.

My husband has recently been transferred to Wyndthorpe Gardens from another home where his care was second to none. The staff at his previous home were like a family and so far the care at the Gardens appears to be the same.
Such a difficult job for carers who take away a lot of the stress of the
family and for that I will always be grateful.

My mum has been a resident of Wyndthorpe Gardens for nearly 10 years. Throughout that time she has been cared for with dignity, respect and kindness. Her illness has progressed throughout that time but at all stages, the staff and managers have ensured that her needs have been met and that me and
the rest of the family have been properly informed or consulted to ensure she has received the best care available.


The staff are very helpful always and ensure that family members and visitors are welcomed and cared for. I always feel able to discuss concerns and raise issues as well as share memories. It feels like home from home and I am very thankful that mum has a place at Wyndthorpe Gardens.

The hardest decision in my life was having to put my loving dad in a care home. After many visits to lots of care homes I can honestly say with all my heart when I visited at Wynthorpe I got a really warm welcome. It felt to me like I could call this my dads next home. Yes, it broke my heart, but not
only did they welcome my Dad in, they also welcomed me, my husband and my daughter in. This helped me and my family a lot. So I would really like to thank everyone for everything you all did for my dad and us. But Thankyou so much for allowing me to leave and know my Dad is in safe hands. Thank you.

Current Review Score: 8.8 (8.849)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.8 (8.849) out of 10 for Wyndthorpe Gardens Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.1 out of 5 from 7 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 4.722 for Wyndthorpe Gardens Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (58 Excellents x 5) + (20 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 79 Ratings = 4.722

  • 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 4.127 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Wyndthorpe Gardens Nursing Home is based on 7 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 = 3.7

    • 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 82 registered maximum number of service users is 16.4. 7 Positive Reviews ÷ 16.4 = 0.427

  • 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.
