My granddad came into Wiltshire Heights from hospital. The transformation in him has been remarkable. The environment, food, activities and staff have all equally contributed to his amazing recovery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I called in to see this care home not long after it opened. I was made welcome and shown around.


When I had a client in need of respite I took her to see Wiltshire Heights. She loved it and stayed very happily for a couple of months.


I have always been welcomed by the staff, the residents have

always been clean and happy. The food is excellent.


Will certainly use Wiltshire Heights for clients in the future.

Reply from Sharon Adams, Home Manager at Wiltshire Heights Care HomeThank you for sharing your experience of Wiltshire Heights. I'm so glad we were able to help your client and we look forward to being of service in the future should the need arise.

Review from Richard S (Relative of Resident) published on 3 April 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Having visited my relative on a couple of occasions it was clear to see that the care being given was of an excellent standard. The home facilities are of a very high standard and clean. All of the staff are very friendly and nothing is too much trouble. Overall a very welcoming home and I certainly
wouldn't hesitate to recommend this home to friends and family - I score the home 10/10.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother came into the Wiltshire Heights care home at short notice for a period of respite care. She needs a lot of help and support with her day to day needs. The staff have welcomed her and been exceptionally kind and caring. My mother has described them as 'loving'. We could not have asked for a
better environment or service.
Reply from Sharon Adams, Home Manager at Wiltshire Heights Care HomeThank you for such lovely comments and high praise for the team. We work hard to exceed all expectations and the team will be thrilled to receive this feedback. Thank you and warm regards, Sharon

Review from Sarah R (Daughter of Resident) published on 2 September 2015 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I am very pleased that mum has settled so well at Wiltshire Heights and talks very highly of it. The staff are very competent, friendly, show kindness and empathy to her. The home is of a very high standard and has a luxury hotel feel about it. It is a very peasant environment to visit as well and I
always enjoy my visits and am made to feel welcome.
A lot of activities and entertainment are provided for the residents. The food is of an excellent standard. Having a dedicated residential dementia floor is a real plus point which I hadn't seen in other homes I had visited. As well as having free use of the spacious rooms and their floors, the residents are taken to other floors for events and activities and to the main garden area.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.907)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.907) out of 10 for Wiltshire Heights Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 49 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 49 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 4.907 for Wiltshire Heights Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (519 Excellents x 5) + (47 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 569 Ratings = 4.907
  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 Wiltshire Heights Care Home is based on 49 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 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 63 registered maximum number of service users is 12.6, which has been reached with 49 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.

Charlie

Charlie Osgood

Job Title: Home Manager Joined: 2023

Hello, my name is Charlie Osgood, and I am the Home Manager here at Wiltshire Heights.


I started my career in care in 1992, working nights as a carer in a nursing home. I loved the job, and it prompted me to undertake my nurse training in London and return to the same nursing home in 2000 in the position of home manager. I then managed this home for three years.


In the 20 years that followed, I have managed two other nursing homes, worked as a training and development manager and also been a regional manager for a small care provider consisting of five care homes.


I am passionate about care and the need to build positive relationships and work in partnership with our residents, their loved ones, our team, local professionals and advocates to achieve the best possible care and outcomes for individuals living in our home, and I am particularly excited about the opportunity to manage a home as impressive as Wiltshire Heights.

Jaspreet Price

Job Title: Client Services Manager Joined: 2020

Hello, my name is Jas, and I am the Client Services Manager here at Wiltshire Heights.


I have experience working in various customer service roles, from group reservations and event management to regional sales management. I loved working in events and organising weddings, corporate conferences and seasonal parties. I have also worked for the NHS in various hospitals as a clinical coordinator.


I came into the care sector hoping to use my experience to support our residents in living a well-rounded life. I am able to use my experience in events to plan special occasions for everybody in our home to enjoy, so not only do our residents receive excellent care, but they also have a great time socially as part of the Wiltshire Heights community.


I feel incredibly lucky to be part of this fantastic home.

Job Title: Head Housekeeper Joined: 2018

Hello, my name is Sally Bullock, and I am the Head Housekeeper here at Wiltshire Heights.


I originally joined Wiltshire Heights as a night carer and eventually became head housekeeper. I loved both roles, however, I feel housekeeping is where my talents really lie. Before this, I worked in a senior school, however after 25 years I decided I wanted to try something different.


As part of my role, I have the privilege of spending time with our residents on a daily basis, mingling and chatting with them and finding out whether there is anything I can do for them. I am lucky to have a great team who keeps our home sparkling clean and shares my sentiment that nothing is too much for our lovely residents.
