This is a very well-managed care home. The standard of care and consideration to both residents and visitors/relatives is excellent. Nursing staff and carers are very supportive and informative. All staff are friendly, approachable and always polite.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
When we arrive at The Village we are always greeted with a smile and we are escorted onto the lift up to floor 2 where the nurses fetch my sister and we either go to her room or a quiet room. The nurses are always helpful and the rooms are nice, clean and tidy. Also, my sister is clean and dressed tidy
and appears to be very happy here, which makes us happy! So thanks to all the nurses and admin staff for looking after her so well.
Reply from Kerry Jackson, Registered manager at The Village Nursing HomeThank you for your kind words as always it's a pleasure, regards.

Mum has been in The Village now for just over a year. She is well looked after and the staff treat her with dignity, respect and importantly affection. She is kept clean as is the home itself. When we visit we are made to feel welcome by all staff.

Mom has been in The Village Nursing Home for over 12 months. Have found them to be very professional and caring. They met all her needs which are quite demanding and keep her clean and tidy. In a previous care home she was in she had constant infections due to lack of bathing.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My husband was there just twelve months before he passed away and he and the family were treated in the most respectable manner, could not have wished for better care from all the staff on the Maples unit. I visited my husband most days, spent a lot of time there and I was treated with respect. All
the staff was very pleasant and always helpful and also very hard working. I have missed going to the home and seeing other residents and all staff, I wish to say a very big thank you to management and all staff, thank you again.

My father was previously in a home where his needs were not being met and in all honesty my family feared the worst for him. Having him at The Village Nursing Home has given him a new lease of life. He is cared for and looked after on a different level. In short, our family couldn't be happier to have
him here.

It has only been a week since my dad moved to The Village. The staff were so welcoming on his arrival. We have noticed a huge difference in my dad's appearance - very clean and clean-shaven. He seems calmer and happier than we have previously seen.

Great service for my brother who has, since been at the home, never been happier.
All of the staff are very friendly and answer any questions you have. Rooms are fantastic size and very homely.
Overall, I would gladly recommend anyone to bring their loved ones here.

My husband has dementia and is and is treated by staff with compassion and patience and respect. He is also a diabetic and the nurses treat him with care, keeping his diabetes under control. The office staff are always helpful, cheerful and positive. My husband is warm, clean, well fed and comfortable.

Review from Elaine G (Daughter of Resident) published on 25 August 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
It has taken me a long time to write this review as I am now grieving the loss of my father. He was admitted into this home in November due to dementia and not managing at home, becoming extremely forgetful. This home was meant to care for him and do a better job than myself. He went in being able to
walk, talk, feed himself. The care he received was below standard that I had to contact safeguarding and CQC, they investigated the home. My dad was an insulin dependent diabetic that needed his blood sugars to be checked regularly and receive his insulin. He was admitted into hospital with unrecordable blood sugars and being unresponsive. The hospital doctors told us we needed to prepare ourselves as he wasn't going to survive. I am unable to state in-depth what occurred at this home, however what we have experienced in our opinion is very poor substandard care and poor management. The home does not warrant any stars

Our mom was placed at the village for 2 weeks post-hospital admission. I cannot thank all the staff enough for how they have looked after mom and us, as a family. Everyone is so friendly, caring and professional. Covid visits are easy to book and they try to be as accommodating as is possible. Nothing
is too much trouble for any of the staff, the girls in the office are brilliant and are always at hand for any information you need. The girls called me for Mom to talk to me when she first arrived and was a little confused, they really put our minds at rest and were very reassuring. Thank you to all the staff, you really are a credit to the health care profession.

Current Review Score: 9.2 (9.163)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.2 (9.163) out of 10 for The Village Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.2 out of 5 from 24 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 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 4.188 for The Village Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (184 Excellents x 5) + (41 Goods x 4) + (12 Satisfactorys x 3) + (40 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 277 Ratings = 4.188
  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 4.975 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Village Nursing Home is based on 19 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 = 3.975
    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 90 registered maximum number of service users is 18, which has been reached with 19 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.
