lovely friendly staff and very caring. Told the food is good too. It all looks very clean too. Would not mind living there myself!
Rooms are a decent size and give people some privacy too.
Bathrooms have all the facilities, especially for disabled people.

Extraordinary care and attention to detail. Felt safe in the knowledge that my father was being looked after well. Being able to sleep at night knowing your loved one is cared for means a lot. I would happily recommend this care home to anyone.

Review from Mark S (Son-in-law of Resident) published on 15 February 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother-in-law moved to White House Care Home last year, she was taken ill just before she moved there and sadly passed away a few weeks after moving in. During her short time there, the staff were amazing and did everything they possibly could to make her comfortable, not only that but they went
out of their way to ensure our family could spend as much time with her and made us all feel welcome including bringing food and drink to us on long visits. All this whilst they were still trying to find their feet in the first few weeks after opening. My wife and her sisters were so grateful for this and how it enabled them to spend as much time as possible with their mum in her final days. Such a pity that she had so little time there as we all know she would have been happy and well looked after.
Reply from Manni Makoni, Manager at White House Care Home
Thank you so much for your wonderful review. We are so pleased we were able to provide the high level of care to your mother-in-law that you have mentioned.

Review from D G (Daughter of Resident) published on 26 January 2023 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
The care home is beautifully decorated and equipped more like a 4-star hotel. The grounds need some attention but I am sure they will be as beautiful as the home in due course. The care home has only been open for two months and I know there have been teething problems with the staff, all the staff
that I have met have been lovely and I know my mum is in safe, caring hands which is the most important thing of all.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.876)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.876) out of 10 for White House 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 29 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 29 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 4.876 for White House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (299 Excellents x 5) + (36 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 338 Ratings = 4.876
  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 White House Care Home is based on 29 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 50 registered maximum number of service users is 10, which has been reached with 29 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.
