My sister and I chose Pinewood after visiting other homes, some with larger grounds and more modern buildings. As soon as we walked into Pinewood we were aware of a warm and caring atmosphere and saw that staff were taking an interest in the residents and interacting with them with encouragement and
good humour. Our first impressions were not to be disappointed and my mother stayed at Pinewood for 3 1/2 years until her death, during which time she expressed to us her own gratitude that Pinewood was so well managed and that the staff were caring and helpful and willing to listen to the resident if they had needs or concerns. Meals provided were of a very good standard.
As family members, we felt that the manageress and staff were always available to talk to us about any concerns and made every effort to resolve any issues as quickly as possible.
We felt that Pinewood had the best interests of our mother in mind and wanted to care for their residents according to their individual characters and needs.

I came here following a knee replacement operation.
It has been fantastic and allowed me a great opportunity to recover.
The care is superb and the home is run very well making each resident stay a pleasure.
I will definitely return should I need it.

Our GP said that the sign of a good care home was if the staff were happy in their work and if they remained employed there for long periods. Pinewood Residential Home certainly ticks both of those boxes. The staff and care could not be better.

Reply from Eileen Crabb, Care Manager at Pinewood Residential Care Home

We are very pleased you were very satisfied with the service and care your father received during his stay with us.

Your positive feedback will be passed on to all the team.

As a family, we are all very happy with the care, kindness and respect that all members of Pinewood Residential Home show our gather. Every single person has been more than helpful and putting my brother, sister and myself at total ease about our much loved father being there. We never worry about how
well he is being looked after, which is a great peace of mind.

My mother went into Pinewood last May for emergency care and has stayed there since that time.
She is very well cared for by the wonderful staff at Pinewood. She is treated with dignity and the staff encourage her to participate in daily activities which she now enjoys something she would never have
done before. Although English is not her first language, she manages to get along with everyone.

I was discharged from hospital to Pinewood Residential Home for respite care. I could not have been welcomed more warmly or treated more kindly by management and staff and would thoroughly recommend this care home to anyone.
The food is good, the menu changes daily and there is always an "own" choice
on offer - you only have to ask! The lounges are well appointed and activities and entertainment are organised. Hairdressing and chiropody is available.
Both management and staff are attentive to residents needs and always have time to listen. I commend them for their total care.

We were struck by the warm welcoming relaxed atmosphere in the home. The standard of caring was also impressive and nothing was too much trouble. The only negative aspect was sometimes the response time to calls for routine assistance were slow. In my parent's experience/judgment.

From the moment I discussed my mother residing in Pinewood I was extremely impressed with all aspects of the home. The manager is welcoming knowledgeable and reassuring. The residents rooms, lounges and dining room are furnished very well, are well maintained and always very clean. What really stands
out is that the staff are always cheerful, helpful and very kind towards my mother and to us as her family.

Pinewood has provided me with the perfect caring environment in which to recover from major surgery. I have spent the last two weeks being cared for being thoroughly pampered and made to feel very special on my journey to a full recovery. I cannot praise the manager and her team highly enough. All the
staff whether in the nursing, catering or domestic departments are a credit to Pinewood and make it the top quality and very best of care homes that it undoubtedly is.

Pinewood is a warm and friendly care home run to the highest standards. The wishes of individual resident are paramount which is important as most have lived full and independent lives. The staff are excellent right from the top down and there is very little change in staffing. This shows the high level
of morale amongst all who work there. The food provided is of restaurant quality and resident have a great deal of choice.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.500)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.500) out of 10 for Pinewood Residential Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 10 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 4.500 for Pinewood Residential Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (81 Excellents x 5) + (35 Goods x 4) + (12 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 130 Ratings = 4.5

  • 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 Pinewood Residential Care Home is based on 10 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 48 registered maximum number of service users is 9.6, which has been reached with 10 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.
