Review from Lesley S (Daughter of Resident) published on 9 April 2021 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Willow Rose is an amazing care home. My mum and the family are so lucky she is a resident there. Not only is it a wonderful environment but the care given is second to none and the support given to Mum is excellent. She is treated with an understanding of her dignity and needs. She is cared for with
patience and gentleness. As a family we really appreciate the communication from the home about Mum, this has been so vital during the Covid pandemic. Mum has dementia and sight loss and during this time Willow Rose Care Home have made sure Mum is kept close to the family with her listening to our voices over the phone and voice messages we leave which are played back to her and explained. Mum's room is a beautiful haven. Care of detail runs through the whole ethos of Willow Rose. We cannot recommend it highly enough.

It's been a tough year with Covid-19 but without a shadow of a doubt my mum, in my eyes, would not be with us if it wasn't for this home. She actually looks younger. The only thing is no visiting but I understand it has to be done.
Reply from Debbie Pugh, Manager at Willow Rose Care HomeThank you so much for your review. This is a big help to families who are faced with the tough decision of finding 24-hour care placement and not being able to view the facilities themselves.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father, although only admitted for a few weeks, received a high level of care from all staff involved. His individual needs were assessed and plans were carried out and reassessed throughout his stay.
Staff were sensitive towards me when I asked to visit during the current Covid-19 situation. I
was treated with the utmost dignity throughout my visits. I found the environment calm, well organised and highly professional.

Willow Rose Care Home in Willenhall is a professional, caring establishment. My father has been resident there since December 2019. All the staff are kind, considerate and exceptionally attentive to his particular needs. I would not hesitate to recommend this care provider to my colleagues/friends.
Well done the Willow Rose team at Willenhall, keep doing what you do! Thank you for your support.

The home is lovely just from the outside. Inside is beautiful. Everything is there for the residents' needs and more. I am happy my sister has got somewhere like this to be cared for. No need for any change overall.

I came to visit my sister, first time, I visited her room, beautiful, also very clean and modern. When I came into the care home I couldn't get over it all. Reception was very helpful. Never seen a care home as beautiful as this.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My nan moved into Willow Rose six weeks ago from another care home. The home is of a high standard as its brand new, but the care offered meets the same high standard - 5-star, first-class care. Honestly, the best move I've ever made for my nan; who is 102 with dementia. Nurses and carers alike are
absolutely fantastic. Massive thanks to them all already - manager, loved her to bits!

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.844)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.844) out of 10 for Willow Rose Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 23 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 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 4.844 for Willow Rose Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (234 Excellents x 5) + (28 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 269 Ratings = 4.844
  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 Willow Rose Care Home is based on 22 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 73 registered maximum number of service users is 14.6, which has been reached with 22 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.
