The care provided in the residential home being Westbury Gardens is exceptional
All of my mother needs are met on a day to day basis, she really enjoys her time at this home after struggling to live at home on her own home, the transition was not a problem due to the welcoming nature of the staff.
The
food and day to day entertainment is very good, always something going on to keep my mother occupied if she wishes
All in all she couldn’t wish for a better place

My mum has lived at The Westbury for just 3 years now. The care given to her is exceptional my mum has extensive medical needs and all the staff go up and beyond to care for her nothing is ever too much trouble for any member of staff. My sister and I couldn't have found a better home for mum where
we know she is loved and safe. They are so understanding and when mum was really ill a few weeks ago we felt so supported by the staff. Having a relative go into a care home is never easy but The Westbury has been and still is mums home and extended family even more so since covid.

I can’t write enough in this limited space to expound the virtues of this Nursing Home. It is lovely. It is big, active, bright, friendly. I just felt it had a ‘buzz’ which my mum loved. If your preference is for a quieter residency, this can easily be catered for, but Westbury has a really positive
feel when you first walk in. From initial assessment to moving in mum was treated with dignity, kindness and respect. And this care and attention were themes throughout my mum’s stay. The care and entertainment staff were lovely and the food is great. We do not pay our care staff what they deserve! To be balanced I ought to mention a few negatives. The lovely outside space on the top floor needs attention. This is a big asset. Please relay the decking and improve planting. If you want carpets and oak furniture in your room, choose a more expensive nursing home! Sometimes the night staff weren’t as caring as we would have liked - staff shortages! Still gets 100% vote from me.

Excellent nursing care with my husband's type 1 diabetes - very good control. Excellent cleaning of rooms etc - faultless. Excellent laundry service - private and general. Extremely polite and pleasant staff - both admin and nursing side. Also, endlessly patient and sympathetic when dealing with me
and my husband. In short, all around excellent.

My mother has been here several years now having moved from the adjacent gardens residential home. She has received excellent care throughout her time here. The home and the rooms are spotlessly clean, the residents are well looked after, and the food is excellent. Not only at mealtimes, but also the
excellent cakes and drinks at various times of the day.


The care staff have been doing an excellent job of looking after her many needs whilst the entertainment staff are very friendly and provide activities and engagement with the residents in a cheerful positive way. During the COVID situation, they have been arranging video calls, which have been very helpful, and now that visiting is again allowed, the welcome and help at reception is as it always has been, excellent.


Highly recommended.

While my friend was in The Westbury care home, she received the best care. The staff were marvellous, they were patient, gave her their time, they listened to what she had to say. The food was fantastic and an excellent choice. I can not speak highly enough of this home. My friend lived as long as she
did because of the care, they met her medical needs. And the main thing was that she was happy and loved the staff and they loved her.

My father received high-quality care from all members of the team. My father came from hospital for a 28-day-care assessment. The whole team to be acknowledged being laundry, catering, administration, physio and nursing. All working seamlessly to provide individualised, caring, friendly and professional
service.

My father was resident at The Westbury for four months until his death at the end of last year. It is a lovely light and airy home, with a welcoming atmosphere. The bedrooms and lounges are well furnished and extremely comfortable and the food very enjoyable too.
The staff are exceptional; Dad was
suffering with delirium/ dementia a lot of the time and all of his carers treated him kindly and with respect. Nothing was too much trouble. I consider we were fortunate to have found a place for him there, and although he was always struggling to go home, the staff made his final days and weeks as peaceful as possible.

The quality of the staff, and the care provided was of the highest standard my father had terminal cancer, and spent the last eight weeks of his life in the home. Throughout, he was treated with the highest care, respect and dignity. The family were always welcomed and informed at all times. The staff
are always friendly, polite and professional. The last weeks of my fathers life were difficult but the home and the staff enabled this to be as easy and caring as possible.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.499)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.499) out of 10 for Westbury Nursing Home & Westbury Garden Suite 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 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 14 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 4.885 for Westbury Nursing Home & Westbury Garden Suite is calculated as follows: ( (147 Excellents x 5) + (17 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 165 Ratings = 4.885

  • 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 4.614 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Westbury Nursing Home & Westbury Garden Suite is based on 14 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 114 registered maximum number of service users is 22.8. 14 Positive Reviews ÷ 22.8 = 0.614

  • 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.
