Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

Mum was frail, anxious, isolated and unable to move unaided with poor eyesight.


In this lovely environment, Mum has thrived due to the excellent leadership of the manager; her staff creating an effective/caring team whilst providing a comfortable, happy, relaxed atmosphere.


Their support enabling

Mum improved mobility/access to activities trips out. Very good meals with choices.
Family members visited regularly, open access always welcomed and witnessing excellent care/rapport and respect of residents at all times.
Loved to see Mum laughing and joking with staff, she felt secure and happy. More independent.


Choices of activities Vista also hosted themed events and parties (very good links between Vista and the local community).
Excellent sensory Garden which my mother enjoyed Mum became more confident having choices again, more in control, great to see the change in her, knowing her care couldn't be bettered elsewhere.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.883)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.883) out of 10 for The New Wycliffe Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 33 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 33 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 4.883 for The New Wycliffe Home is calculated as follows: ( (353 Excellents x 5) + (37 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 394 Ratings = 4.883

  • 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 The New Wycliffe Home is based on 33 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 49 registered maximum number of service users is 9.8, which has been reached with 33 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.
