My Mum has been a resident at the Springs for 12 months. She is treated with dignity and respect. The last 6 months have been very difficult as a result of Covid 19. But the staff have done their best to keep us in touch with Mum through outdoor visits, telephone conversations and Skype meetings.

Wanted to provide feedback for the wonderful care to my mother who has been resident at The Springs for three and a half years. The staff are always keeping me informed especially through the difficult pandemic of the well being of my mother. Special thank you to a member of staff who has now left but
also to another wonderful member of staff who ensures my mum is always smiling and happy in the home. Thanks to all the staff including the office team as well for their support with assisting in getting protection for her as well.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our father has been in the unit for well over a year and has been shown great care and respect.
Everyone works really hard to take care of his needs and make him as comfortable as possible; he looks forward to his meal times and the facilities are excellent from the dining room lounge and his own ensuite
room.
Communication from the staff is just right, and they do all they can to provide the best for his well being.
My Brother and I are grateful to the staff for all their hard work. It’s hard to imagine him receiving better care anywhere else.

This is an excellent care home each time I go to visit my dear friend who is on the priory floor. I find it a very happy place, the staff even under pressure are all happy and get on with everyone! It’s a pleasure to go in there on a visit. The food looks appetizing, the kitchen staff are amazing, and
cook some wonderful recipes for the residents! I would definitely recommend this home to anyone who would need a good care home for one of there relatives or friends. Definitely worth 5-star rating!

From the moment my aunt went to The Springs, the staff made her stay as good as they could. They were kind and attentive. As she became frailer, the chef rang me to ask how he could tempt her to eat more. All staff went out of their way to help her.

Mum is doing OK thanks to the care and support of those around her. My only real concern is the lack of consistent social contact. I know she doesn't like to mix with the other residents but, she is frequently alone in her room when I arrive for a visit.

Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5
I came into visit with some clothes and collect washing. It was 10.45am. My husband was still in bed! The TV was on but he could not see it as he was horizontal and not wearing his glasses. I was told that he was asleep when they came to get him up. But that was no excuse as it would have been better
for him to have breakfast in the dining room. After I made him more comfortable, the nurse came in to give his tablets. It appears I need to send 7 pairs of trousers/pyjamas as whoever washes my husband puts the daily clothes straight into the wash bag! This is not acceptable, only if they are soiled.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.709)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.709) out of 10 for The Springs 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 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 4.709 for The Springs Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (207 Excellents x 5) + (38 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) + (4 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 258 Ratings = 4.709
  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 The Springs Care Home is based on 21 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 65 registered maximum number of service users is 13, which has been reached with 21 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.

Maria Willis

Job Title: Home Manager

I have been a home manager for over 12 years. I am a registered nurse and have been for nearly 20 years, firstly working in the NHS as a band 5 nurse progressing to ward sister. I left the NHS in 2010 to work in my first care home, progressed very quickly to unit lead and then deputy manager, taking on my first home manager role in 2011 for Bupa. I have had regional roles within the sector, supporting other home managers and improving the quality of care.


I love working in care services as the difference we can make to people’s lives is massive; we are so privileged to help to enhance resident’s lives, and that of their families and friends, too.


Every day is different; being a part of such a fantastic team is so rewarding, with our combined goal to make a difference to those that we care for.


I am married with 2 grown-up children, I have 2 wonderful step-grandchildren and a new baby granddaughter. My family are my world; I love nothing more than everyone coming to our house for a get-together. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, especially whilst sat on a sunbed in the sunshine on holiday!

Georgie Flowerdew

Job Title: Clinical Deputy Manager Joined: 2024

During my work experience week at school, I went to the ALEX (Redditch Acute Hospital) and worked on one of the wards for the week. In that week I knew I would always work within the care sector and I have ever since. I started as a care assistant within a nursing home and then became a field care manager in domiciliary care. I thoroughly loved working in a nursing home as a care assistant and knew that was the area of the care sector that I wanted to work in. However, I needed to go away and gain more experience and knowledge first so I could complete the role not only effectively but to a high standard - I completed my nurse training, working as a care assistant.


Once qualified, I made the move to the acute setting to gain more experience. During my time in the NHS, I became a sister in both urgent care and HDU. I also completed my bleep training for Worcestershire Acute Trust and regularly had the bleep over the weekends. The bleep is the clinical site lead, so I would be in charge of the clinical side of the whole of Alexandra Hospital. I enjoyed my time within the acute setting but felt I had gained the experience and knowledge I needed to form a strong base to continue my career within the primary sector and more specifically within a nursing home. I love many aspects of working within care services, but I would say one of my favourite aspects would have to be listening to other people's stories and life experiences.


In my spare time, one of my main hobbies would have to be showing my dogs, we have had the pleasure of running around the green carpets of crafts every year since I started showing. My dogs and horses take up the majority of my free time!

Andrew Evans

Job Title: Chef Manager Joined: 2019

I have worked for Bupa for nearly 5 and a half years and have always worked in the hospitality industry.


I enjoy working in care services as every day is different here - seeing the residents enjoying their food and living a better, longer and healthier life is so rewarding.


I love spending my spare time in the garden growing all sorts of fruit, vegetables and flowers, I also enjoy watching my football team play and holidays in Spain with my wife.

Job Title: Senior Activity Coordinator Joined: 2022

I'm the Senior Activity Coordinator here at The Springs. I started working in the care sector as my Dad was in a care home and I loved that this role enabled me to give residents a better quality of life.


I have 4 children, 6 grandchildren and two more on the way!


In my spare time, I like walking, reading, jewellery making and also making floral tributes.
