The Review Score of 9.9 (9.855) out of 10 for Virginia Water Care Home - Avery Collection 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 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 17 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 4.931 for Virginia Water Care Home - Avery Collection is calculated as follows: ( (190 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 203 Ratings = 4.931
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 4.924 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Virginia Water Care Home - Avery Collection is based on 17 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 92 registered maximum number of service users is 18.4. 17 Positive Reviews ÷ 18.4 = 0.924
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.

Job Title: General Manager
Joined: 2008
I started working at Virginia Water Care Home as a care assistant in 2008. Over the years I progressed in my career and I am proud to say that I am now the General Manager. I am dedicated to providing a high-quality service, tailored to the individual needs of each resident. I have an excellent team that works hard to ensure that our residents get the best care and that all of their needs are met to the highest standard.
Job Title: Assisted Living Coordinator
I have had the privilege of working as the Assisted Living Coordinator at our home since 2010. I am truly passionate about ensuring our residents have the best quality care giving their families peace of mind.
The importance of my role is to ensure that all the care and clinical aspects are met beyond expectation and that both the resident and family are supported to their fullest.
We have a dedicated and knowledgeable team who work together consistently empowering residents to maximise their ability to preserve independence with safeguarding in mind for all individuals. We are a caring family home for our residents.
Job Title: Client Liaison Manager
Having previously worked in the retirement living sector I was thrilled to be given the opportunity to join Virginia Water Care Home.
It is often an emotional and overwhelming process. I take great pride in facilitating this process, supporting and advising them of their best options. The reward is seeing family members visiting their loved ones whose lives have become enriched with the care and support of our fantastic teams.
Job Title: Activities and Volunteers Co-ordinator
Hi, my name is Samantha Wells and I am the Activities and Volunteer Coordinator at Virginia Water. I have been working here since August 2015.
I truly enjoy my job, getting to know all Residents individually and listening to their life stories. This is a chance to explore their past and gain an insight into their lives and some memorable and meaningful moments. At Virginia Water, we have a lovely activities team and we run the Live with Purpose Programme. This covers a variety of Activities enriching the mind, body and soul. There is nothing more rewarding than seeing our residents smiling, laughing and having a good time.
Job Title: Head Chef/Dining Services Manager
I started my career at the iconic Waldorf Hotel in London which inspired my passion for hospitality.
Unsocial hours and the birth of my daughter made me rethink my career and hence the transition to care home catering for the past 15 years. I have never looked back. I really enjoy catering for all our residents’ dietary requirements. It’s a very rewarding job and a privilege to cook for them in their home. A birthday celebration never goes by without a personalised cake. My team also support special events in the home.
Job Title: Business Administrator Manager
Joined: 2024
With over 20 years of experience in hotel management I was in search of a new challenge. In joining the team at Virginia Water care home in February 2024 in this business administration role I felt I could encompass my knowledge and experience and challenge myself to adapt it into the care sector. I felt very privileged to be offered the position and am already loving getting to know the residents and working with the team here in a very friendly and welcoming environment. Whether it be billing queries from the residents or work related queries from the team members I am here to assist and I get great satisfaction from helping others. Nothing is too much trouble to ensure our residents happiness and their family’s peace of mind.
