Review from Mathew J (Son of Resident) published on 24 June 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Finding the right home for a loved relative was made easy for us by the staff and facilities at Willingdon Park Manor.
Experts have clearly been involved in the planning and construction of the home - the attention to detail in comfort, design, and finish is faultless and the staff is professional,
warm, approachable, friendly, and caring.
The home affords a) residents genuine sanctuary and b) visitors the immediate assurance that relatives are genuinely cared for and appreciated.
On entering WPM for the first time our Mother did not want to leave and it is easy to see, sense, and understand why.
Everything, literally everything has been thought of - from the garden and the planting, through to the lighting, the decor, the ambiance, and the surrounds - nothing is out of place or missing. Everything has a purpose and is provided for a reason.
Summary: WPM is a genuine home for residents and their families - the perfect venue and environment to enjoy and celebrate later living.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My dad had been at another local care home in Eastbourne where the standards have been slipping over recent months. We went to see Willingdon Park Manor together to see if he liked it, and he loved it and wanted to move in as soon as possible!
He has only been there for 3 weeks at this stage, but he
is incredibly happy, and said it is 'indescribably better' than the last place (a place which claims to be 'outstanding' but isn't).
Willingdon Park Manor is absolutely beautiful, like a five-star hotel. It is stunningly decorated, and beautifully laid out, with wonderful facilities and services, amazing staff and thoughtful care.
Dad says that the staff are brilliant, the food is excellent and beautifully presented, the environment is lovely, and the care is fantastic!
The staff have been incredibly helpful, friendly and responsive, and the whole team could not be nicer.
Overall, I give it 5/5 on every measure, and I can sleep easier at night now knowing Dad is happy and well looked after.

The staff at Willingdon Park Manor work hard to ensure residents and their families feel welcome, comfortable and at home. The home offers generous hospitality to families. They are good at fostering a sense of community - my father and I were offered the use of the cinema to enjoy a high-profile sporting
event! They go out of their way to have on hand favourite branded foods, identify established routines, maintain said routines and offer a friendly face at all times.

We're delighted that your father is enjoying the caf, cinema and gardens.

Willingdon Park Manor rescued us. Any teething problems are listened to with respect and care and I feel we are part of the team trying to help Dad settle in. No home is perfect but all the team are trying their best to make it so.

We understand what a stressful and emotional time this was for you and your father.

It's lovely to see your dad out and about, enjoying the caf and gardens, and spending quality time with you all.

Review from Wendy F (Daughter of Resident) published on 6 June 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I needed a Care Home with an immediate vacancy where my mum would be safe, comfortable, well cared for and happy.
Willingdon Park Manor is decorated and furnished to a very high standard but maintains a homely feel. The bedrooms, the great variety of indoor shared areas and the gardens are beautiful.
The staff team is friendly, welcoming, knowledgeable, passionate about what they do, proud to be part of the team and treat everyone with dignity and respect.
After 20+ years of living alone and being fiercely independent, Mum was a little slow to settle in. They understood this and reassured her and spoke with me to see if together we could find ways to help her adjust. She is now safe, comfortable, well cared for, happy and loving life, having her hair and nails done every week, participating in the activities arranged every day and enjoying the excellent food and varied and imaginative menus.
Willingdon Park Manor and the team are amazing and I cannot recommend this home highly enough.

With our approach to relationship-centred care and your support, we are thrilled to see the difference in your mum already. Making friends and participating in activities, and as you have said; loving life!

The transition of Mum moving into the home has been very smooth, Mum gets involved with a variety of activities and so much to explore. It's very flexible.
The care given to Mum is great.
The experience so far has been outstanding. Staff are all very friendly and nothing is too much trouble.
I would
recommend this home to anyone.

The care, facilities, accommodation and staff are all excellent. The staff were very understanding during the admission process, and whilst my mum has only been at the home for a month or so, the care provided has been excellent, with a wide range of social activities.

Your kind words are a real boost to our team's morale, we will be sure to pass them on to everyone. It's wonderful to see your mum establishing new friendships and participating in daily activities. Her weekly trip to the salon, to have her hair and nails done, never goes unnoticed. Many thanks once again.

My brother is the first resident of Willingdon Park Manor which is a newly built and recently opened care home. On arrival, he was warmly welcomed and soon settled into a friendly and caring environment. It was a big lifestyle change for him and he was greatly helped to adjust by the support of the
first-class staff. The standard of the facilities at the home are excellent, with good rooms, good food and great care and he will be very happy there.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.859)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.859) out of 10 for Hallmark Willingdon Park Manor 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 30 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 4.859 for Hallmark Willingdon Park Manor is calculated as follows: ( (330 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (4 Poors x 2) + (5 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 354 Ratings = 4.859
  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 Hallmark Willingdon Park Manor 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 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 85 registered maximum number of service users is 17, 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.
