I visit the care home often and find managers and staff quite helpful. I've seen how caring everyone is and I will always be willing to help while possible.

When our dad went into Windsor Court we were satisfied that he was getting the care he needed.
After a few days, when my brother visited him, he found dad had been moved upstairs and he had been there a few hours with no buzzer to call for help.
It was like a different place upstairs, it seemed
like he had been left there and forgotten about.
But after being in hospital a few days, he went back for end of life care and was put downstairs, the staff couldn't do enough for him.
Unfortunately, he died that night but his last few hours were good and we will always be grateful to the staff for all they did.

Thank you for taking the time to fill in a care review following the sad loss of your Father. We would like to offer our deep condolences to you and your family. After speaking to the staff at the Care Home it was not their intention to cause you or your family any distress.

The staff are very caring and my mother seems to like them which is the main thing. I would like to see a better way of staff communicating or having information to hand. As an example; if I ask a question I don't want to be told "I've just come on duty" but would like to be told "I've just come on
duty, but I will check for you!"


My mother will have been at Windsor Court for a year and has not had one arranged outing other than the supermarket. There is not enough stimulation but I can see this is due to staffing restrictions. The communal lounges smell of urine which is impregnated in the carpet and chairs, Sandringham looks to have had no update or care to attention for a long time.


Reply from Claire Hurworth, Careline Manager at Windsor Court Care Home

Thank you for taking the time to send a review and voicing your concerns. Please be assured that you can speak to any of our senior staff during your visit to the home. The home manager also has an open door policy for any visitors who have concerns and is always available. Activities are held Monday to Friday and Monthly on a Saturday for chair Zumba. Outings are held regularly pending of course on the weather. We have regular evening activities that are really popular that relatives and residents are invited to join in. Each resident is given the choice to go out but if they decline they cannot be forced. All our residents were asked yesterday to go out for a fish and chip lunch but some residents declined, a coffee morning is held every Friday and your mum has joined in with the other ladies and also enjoys afternoon tea in the new café area that has been developed on the unit.
We are working hard to develop a relaxing comfortable light area for our residents to live in. We have just completed a refurbishment of the lounge and new furniture which the ladies enjoy sitting and relaxing in.

My mother has loved at Windsor Court for 20 months. It has been a positive experience. She arrived at the home, aged 91, run down and confused. The TLC she received from the staff, the good food and the extra stimulation restored her to good health. She then enjoyed over a year in the general care wing
before a fall and a broken hip meant that she needed extra care and was moved to the Sandringham wing. The staff have been extraordinarily kind, with many of them going the extra mile.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.571)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.571) out of 10 for Windsor Court Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 13 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 4.727 for Windsor Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (120 Excellents x 5) + (26 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 154 Ratings = 4.727

  • 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 4.844 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Windsor Court Care Home is based on 13 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 77 registered maximum number of service users is 15.4. 13 Positive Reviews ÷ 15.4 = 0.844

  • 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.
