Review from M J (Son of Resident) published on 28 September 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My mother has been in Woodlands Care Centre for only 6 weeks but has settled in extremely well thanks to the staff. The home is bright and well-equipped and she has a bright and comfortable room. We have no complaints or concerns.

Review from E T (Daughter of Resident) published on 27 January 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My mother was a resident at the care centre at the date of review. My experience of the managers of Woodlands Care Centre and the care staff has been very positive. Prior to her admission I was able to have a very open discussion with the manager and her deputy about my concerns and their management
of my mothers needs. During her stay the care staff maintained a good level of care in a compassionate way. Any issues that arose i.e. falls and loss of dentures were resolved effectively. The home has an excellent activities programme and every effort was made to enable my mother joining in according to how she felt on the given day. Above all I valued the managements' "open door" policy, so that access for informal chats was always possible. Woodlands being dual registered is also a great help.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.915)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.915) out of 10 for Woodlands Care Centre 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 55 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 55 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 4.915 for Woodlands Care Centre is calculated as follows: ( (573 Excellents x 5) + (47 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 623 Ratings = 4.915
  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 Woodlands Care Centre is based on 55 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 109 registered maximum number of service users is 21.8, which has been reached with 55 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.
