The food is homemade which is a real bonus and my mum always looks well nourished. Clothes are washed each day, and so she always looks fresh and well cared for which is a real boost when you walk in. I feel well informed about my mum’s care and know that I can trust that staff will be in touch if they have any concerns, which they have had to do. We have a very healthy and open relationship and I can’t thank them enough for all they do.

We have been absolutely in awe at the level and variety of activities that the home run. This includes singers, summer fayres, games, quizzes, and pet therapy. Really the list is endless.
Their ability to support residents as individuals is so impressive and although my relative no longer feels able to go on trips seeing others go out and enjoy afternoon tea with ponies or the football or just visiting a shop is just brilliant. They support folk to live their lives.

The initial care and attention she got from the staff was outstanding, as my
The welcome we received from the staff on each visit, including the cup of tea, made us feel like part of their big family.
For my mothers last two weeks one of the family was with her 24/7. We were well looked after and received meals there. When my mother passed away there was a quiet efficiency, care and compassion in making arrangements including members of staff attended my mothers funeral.
I can only offer my highest recommendation and thanks from my family for the care you gave our mother. Thank you.

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.929) out of 10 for Westerlands Care 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 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.
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 4.929 for Westerlands Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (145 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 156 Ratings = 4.929
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 Westerlands 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 23 registered maximum number of service users is 4.6, which has been reached with 13 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.

Response by Westerlands Care Home to this inspection report
Duty of Candour Report
All health and social care services in
Scotland have a duty of candour. This is a legal requirement which
means that when things go wrong and mistakes happen, the people
affected understand what has happened, receive an apology, and that
our organisation learns how to improve for the future.
An important part of this duty is that we provide an annual report about the duty of candour in our services. This short report describes how our care service has operated the duty of candour during the time between 1 April 2022 and 31 March 2023. We hope you find this report useful.
How many incidents happened to which the duty of candour applies?
In the last year, there have been no incidents to which the duty of candour applied.
