Review from Karen P (Daughter of Resident) published on 24 December 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My dad spent a year in here before he passed away last month. I can't sing the staff's praises enough. I believe there were major changes a couple of years ago and I can't fault anything now! The staff were outstanding. Very professional and extremely caring. Nothing was too much bother for them. The
atmosphere was always upbeat and happy. There was a lovely vibe to the place as soon as you went through the doors. From receptionists to nursing and care staff, to laundry staff and cleaners, everyone was just so caring and friendly. My dad needed a lot of care but never wanted for anything. If he couldn't get out of bed any day, the staff would sit and read to him. If anyone is considering a care home for a relative, please go and see Woodlands, you won't be disappointed. Thank you all, from the bottom of our hearts.

Current Review Score: 8.1 (8.061)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.1 (8.061) out of 10 for Woodlands Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.1 out of 5 from 1 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 5.000 for Woodlands Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (11 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 11 Ratings = 5
  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 3.061 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Woodlands Nursing Home is based on 1 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 = 3
    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 82 registered maximum number of service users is 16.4. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 16.4 = 0.061
  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.
