Richmond Painswick is a location to die for. Richmond Village does not detract from this. Staff were on hand to unload luggage and made us very welcome. Facilities in our suite were better than those we enjoyed at a five-star hotel we stayed at last month, including a floral basket and well-stocked
kitchen. An adjustable bed and armchair were provided for my disabled wife. The restaurant menu changed daily and the quality bettered the five-star hotel's, wi-fi access was available in the well-stocked library. We enjoyed an afternoon at the wellness spa and lovely pool.

We are both extremely impressed from the moment we arrived. We were there for one week only for a 'retreat'. Following a hospital stay for one of us and for 'respite' for the other (the carer). From the welcome we received and the respect with which we were treated by all the staff to the care taken
in all the little details provided to add to our comfort. We could not fault it. Nothing was too much trouble.

My second visit to Richmond Painswick with my elderly mother. All facilities are excellent. Comfortable apartment, very good food with plenty of choice and staff that truly care and cannot do enough to look after the needs of all.

We were made very welcome and found the general atmosphere of the home to be happy and helpful. My husband needed extra care due to his lack of balance. This was always given willingly and it enabled us both to enjoy a few days free from the worries and responsibilities of running our own home while
in our 90's. (93 and 91) There was always an adequate choice of menu with well-cooked food. Thank you all at Richmond Painswick.

It was lovely to see you again at the Village and we are pleased you enjoyed your stay with us. We look forward to welcoming you again in December.

To write a balanced review, I shall start with the positive. On arrival, in July, my mother did need nursing care until her stitches and catheter were removed and this was dealt with very professionally. The carers were courteous and helpful throughout her 8-week stay. The physio team worked well with
her.


On the negative front, there was often only a ratio of 1 carer to 8 residents which resulted in my mother's buzzer for assistance often being left for more than 15 mins which is distressing for a deaf/blind 100-year-old lady whose mobility had been lost. There was virtually no 1 to 1 communication for her with the staff and there were no activities that were appropriate for her. Staff knew that she loved being outside in the open air, but she was very rarely taken out.

My stay at Painswick in June was a joy.
I was most impressed at how well I was looked after and the friendliness of the staff, as well as some of the permanent residents who would have known I was only there for a week.
As a keen gardener, I was impressed by the pathways, made an interesting walk.
Well
done to all of you.

Came here for a 'holiday with care', as the principal carer at home for my husband.
Though not 'ill' myself, I was not 'well'.
The staff could not have been more helpful, kind or caring.
Required a visit to local GP, all taken care of.
Did not really participate in activities.

My wife was looked after for two weeks whilst I was abroad on business. From the initial interview to arrange her care, through to her leaving for home, the help and assistance with everything was excellent. The staff could not have been more caring not helpful and I thank them all for being so kind
and attentive to our needs.

More than helpful to improve my health and with grateful thanks to all nursing staff and carers, they are excellent. All the staff in the home are so very kind and helpful and helped my recovery. Must be a new chef as the meals are excellent compared to Autumn 2016 where they were not up to standard.
I really enjoyed my stay and as a regular - I will be back!

If you are needing somewhere for respite care, or simply a very good quality place to stay, then I would certainly recommend Richmond Painswick. Located in the charming village of Painswick. Facilities are excellent and easily accessible to all, quality and choice of food very good. The staff (from
reception, administration to the restaurant) all most professional and eager to help in any way. A great place for a stress-free break.

Reply from Sonia Harte, Senior Village Adviser at Richmond Villages Painswick

It was lovely to read that you and your mother had such a lovely break here at Richmond Painswick. We would love to see you both return sometime in the future, we will keep in touch.

My Husband and I along with my Sister and Brother-in-Law, stayed here from 30th March to 2nd April to celebrate me and my husband's Golden Wedding anniversary.
We were greeted very warmly by everyone and felt very welcome. All the staff in reception, restaurant, cleaners and especially carers for my
disabled husband were extremely helpful to us. We were given a beautiful basket of flowers and a bowl of fruit in each apartment and we even had cards for our anniversary.
The food was amazing with plenty of choices.
The pool and spa were very inviting (I could have sat in the spa all day - absolutely glorious).

My mother happily spent her final 5 years at Richmond Painswick. As she entered her 90th year she needed a lot more care and this was beautifully managed by the domiciliary team. She was treated with dignity and kindness and we the family were kept informed of her changing needs on a regular basis.
Her health declined in her final few weeks and she moved into the nursing home. Those final weeks were managed with great professionalism and kindness from the nursing team. I was welcomed to be with her during her final days and her passing was managed with great kindness and skilled medical care.
I am extremely grateful to the administrative, nursing, and domiciliary team for their care of my mother, and for the daily visits of the cleaning and catering staff, all of whom brightened her day .

Mum (93) really enjoyed her stay at Richmond Painswick. She has been able to stay while we have had a week's holiday for a number of years and I can go away confident that she is being well cared for, that her surroundings are very comfortable and that the activities offered are all of interest to her.

Helpful, caring staff who take a personal interest in their charges: Clean, well-presented premises with excellent facilities. The care presented extends from sole independent care by the individual to partial overnight, to total overnight care, as required and necessary. The care of the individual
is given paramount consideration.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.876)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.876) out of 10 for Richmond Villages Painswick 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 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 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 4.876 for Richmond Villages Painswick is calculated as follows: ( (161 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 178 Ratings = 4.876

  • 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 Richmond Villages Painswick is based on 15 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 24 registered maximum number of service users is 4.8, which has been reached with 15 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.
