**Over the coming months, the home is reducing its environmental impact by removing all gas from heating, catering & laundry services and replacing with electric to make Wykebeck Court Care home Bupa’s first Net Zero care home.**

Wykebeck Court is a beautiful purpose-built home, designed to provide the highest standards in nursing, residential and dementia care in attractive surroundings. Long and short-stay care is available.

The home tailors care to individual needs, helping residents to enjoy the best quality of life possible in a warm and welcoming environment.

The home boasts 84 en-suite bedrooms all fully furnished to a high standard, some with patio doors to the garden, modern dining rooms, spacious lounges and a beauty salon.

Wykebeck Court encourages everyone to get involved in day-to-day life, so there’s a real community spirit. Residents and relatives can choose to share ideas on everything from menus and activities to local trips and outings.

Food is a very important part of life. The chef creates well-balanced meals from choice ingredients, for residents to enjoy in the sociable dining areas or in private in the resident's room. There are lots of favourites on the menu, but staff talk to each resident on arrival about likes and dislikes, and any special dietary needs.

This home is open to local authority funded residents, get in touch to find out more.

Review from Jacqueline K (Daughter of Resident) published on 23 July 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum came into respite for 1 week on 14/6/18.
We were extremely worried about how she would fit into her new surroundings having lived in her home for 45 years. This was a trail to lead up to permanent residency.
Mum enjoyed her stay and settled immediately to which we are in the process of making
this her permanent home.
Mum and ourselves feel she has found her new home where she is happy, safe and very well looked after.
Thank you.

Review from Adele S (Daughter of Resident) published on 8 June 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The staff were very friendly and welcoming to all family members and they were easily found if we needed to ask any questions or to tend to my father's needs. There was a good variety of food and drinks which my father enjoyed. His room was very spacious and bright with a homely feel which made my father
enjoy spending time there. Overall, very pleased with the care provided and would be happy to place him there again for his next respite visit.

Staff have been excellent, food and room are superb. Only criticism is lack of wifi, unable to connect, therefore my father is unable to keep in touch with his family.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother, although suffering from dementia, has settled in remarkably well due to the constant care has received from both management and care staff. Staff have been very considerate and showed great empathy which has really helped her situation. The rooms are very good and the standard is excellent
for cleanliness etc. Laundry is very good service, food excellent, all in all, so far, very pleased with everything at Wykebeck Court.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.731)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.731) out of 10 for Wykebeck Court Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 23 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 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 4.731 for Wykebeck Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (208 Excellents x 5) + (60 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 275 Ratings = 4.731
  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 Wykebeck Court Care Home is based on 23 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 84 registered maximum number of service users is 16.8, which has been reached with 23 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.
