My wife was a patient in Greenacres for nearly 3 years. I visited everyday and was always happy with the care and attention received by the staff. The food is good and is catered for all different dietary requirements. Well recommended.

Choosing a Care Home for a loved one is one of the hardest jobs, then to trust the Home & Staff with your expectations can be daunting but through the 3 years of My Uncle living here, it was the best choice we made.
Every care facility has hiccups, when addressed things did alter, patience & understanding
is required from all.
From Care Staff, Kitchen & Laundry Staff, they all did a fab job for My Uncle & he settled so well & I know he loved it there.
Full support from when My Uncle was in his final days, he passed very peacefully & I wouldn't have let him pass anywhere else except his Home - Green Acres.
Reply from Zsuzsanna, Home Manager at Green Acres Nursing Home

Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful words. Choosing a care home is indeed a deeply personal and difficult decision, and we are truly honoured that you entrusted us with your Uncles care over the past three years.Supporting your Uncle in his final days was a privilege, and were humbled that you felt comfort in knowing he was in a place he called home. Thank you once again for sharing your experience and for allowing us to be part of his journey.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My late mothers partner was a resident for almost 2 years. He was very well looked after. He was always dressed and out of bed, up until his last few days. His meals were well prepared and delivered regularly, and he was often helped to eat when required. The facilities were clean and tidy and the staff
were very friendly and helpful, which I saw at first hand even tho they did not know when I would be visiting. I was always kept up to date with his medical needs.

Most care given to residents is good. They go above and beyond. Although, some of the staff are questionable on whether they want to be there and care for residents.
Reply from Sadie Suthern, Home Manager at Green Acres Nursing Home

Hi Margaret, thank you for taking the time to complete the review for Green Acres. It's nice to hear your overall experience is positive, and I will feedback your lovely comments to the staff. I am pleased that we have now spoken about the other issue that was raised within this review, and this has now been resolved.

I would like to thank the care staff and management of Green Acres Nursing Home for their kind and sensitive care of my uncle, he is a quiet and reserved man and the family were unsure how he would react to his new surroundings. I can however say that due, in no small part, to the kindness shown and
attention to his needs that he is happy and settled.
I would also add that when I have asked about my uncle's health, problems, needs or other issues I have raised, staff were on hand to help or advise.

You always communicated with us when my dad went to hospital or an appointment but on my dad's final days you kept him as comfortable as possible. My dad was a charmer to all the staff and nurses and you were all great to him and I and my family really appreciated you looking after him. We thank you
so much and it was great for you to see him off when we came down in the hearse.
You should all be proud of your job and what you do and you all should be recognised by NHS as well through the Covid war.
Reply from Sadie Suthern, Home Manager at Green Acres Nursing Home

Thank you very much, it's nice to receive positive feedback and I will share this with the team. Your dad was a pleasure to care for and is sadly missed at Green Acres.

My dad was a resident here, I just want to thank the staff that were involved in looking after him. In his final journey with the home, the staff were absolutely kind etc. The carer and kitchen staff, all staff should be recognised in care homes, because they all take a major role in all residents'
lives.

Having to pick a care home during lockdown was so traumatic, but the manager and staff helped me answer all my questions and elevate my fears. All staff are welcoming and polite. Nothing was too much trouble. The rooms are lovely, spacious and clean. The care provided to my mother was amazing and above
and beyond my expectations. I would highly recommend Green Acres to anybody needing nursing care.

Review from Catherine P (Daughter of Resident) published on 29 October 2020 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Dad has been in Green Acres for 18-months and has had three care home managers; changes have been made but more can be done. More communication is needed between the care home and the resident's family, this is inconsistent, getting through to the care home is an issue even when avoiding busy times.
This is so important with covid restrictions. More could be done in the garden for residents and their families; involving residents if possible/able. More activities to suit residents' capabilities, stimulation is key for dementia residents.
Reply from Wendy Johnson, Home manager at Green Acres Nursing Home

Hi Catherine, thank you for the review. We take pride in the quality of care we provide and appreciate your feedback. We recognise it's a difficult time for all of us. We try our best to ensure everyone can have easy access to communicating with the relatives while keeping everyone safe and ensuring we provide the highest standards of care. To help protect everyone from the virus we had to introduce some changes meaning staff are now busier and sometimes it's harder to get through to us. We know how important it is to keep in contact with your relatives and we do apologise for this. We do a monthly newsletter and do Facebook live streams, feel free to follow our Facebook group. We are currently preparing the lounge to support visiting in winter once we are able to allow visits. We are continuously monitoring the situation at the care home and looking into ways we could improve and feedback like yours is extremely useful. Thank you again.

I would like to take this opportunity to commend the Green Acres Nursing Home for their excellent care they gave my mum whilst she spent the last four weeks of her life. The home is clean, caring, very dignified and compassionate towards not only patients but family members too. They even went to the
extreme and gave myself and another two members of my family a room so we could put our head down and catch some sleep as we spent five nights solid as my mum was dying. They provided us with food and compassion and couldn't do enough for us. I will say this once again and for the rest of my life I'm so thankful for the care and support they gave my mum and recommend this home for anybody's loved ones.

Current Review Score: 8.1 (8.120)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.1 (8.120) out of 10 for Green Acres Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.4 out of 5 from 4 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.7 out of 5 from 4 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 4.422 for Green Acres Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (23 Excellents x 5) + (18 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 45 Ratings = 4.422
  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 3.698 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Green Acres Nursing Home is based on 4 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 = 3.375
    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 62 registered maximum number of service users is 12.4. 4 Positive Reviews ÷ 12.4 = 0.323
  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.
