Welcoming, a great friendly feel to the home, clean.
Staff always helpful and cheerful, also office and management the same.
I was so sad to move my friend due to needing special care.
If ever I need a care home I would love to go to Wilhelmina House for their care and love that is given to residents
and family.

I used to visit a neighbour who lived alone but broke her hip a few years ago and became a resident of Wilhelmina House. Later she moved to another home as she needed more nursing care.


I visit Wilhelmina House usually once a week and help if needed and join in the activities which are many.


The

house is very comfortable with a beautiful extensive garden where the residents can sit out in the summer. There are a variety of activities for the residents provided by an excellent activities manager which includes visits and entertainment.


The staff are wonderful, caring and cheerful and the whole ethos of the house is the happiness of the residents.

Overall this is a well run and excellent residential care home. The care staff are great with residents and visitors and always appear cheerful. My mother and all our family feel she is well cared for. Mum occasionally gets unwanted (but not unfriendly) visits from a confused resident, which needs to
be monitored. Excellent social activities, some of which Mum enjoys. A very good move for her!

My cousin has lived here for five years and in all that time she has been treated very well as my assessment of the ratings show.
The home represents extremely good value for money and the staff and management are extremely welcoming and friendly.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.809)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.809) out of 10 for Wilhelmina House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.809 for Wilhelmina House is calculated as follows: ( (178 Excellents x 5) + (33 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 215 Ratings = 4.809

  • b) 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 Wilhelmina House is based on 18 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 26 registered maximum number of service users is 5.2, which has been reached with 18 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
