An amazing home from home. Staff are caring, professional and engaging whilst all have a cheerful disposition that benefits residents and visitors well being. I was a day visitor and had a lovley day with staff and residents. The interaction staff have with residents is family oriented making it
a very special place. The meal and service delivery excellent. I enjoyed the music afternoon where all participated in singing and some had a few dances! I would recommend.

The hospital organised my wife being sent to the Wingfield Care Home for palliative care. My wife was a resident at the Lodge for about 35 days until she died. The staff could not have been more helpful, considerate or compassionate to both my wife and myself in connection with my wife's deteriorating
health. I cannot thank them enough 10/10.

We recently lost our mother at the care home. Nursing and care staff we found dignified and respectable at this time. The lack of respectfulness came from admin and management staff, we lost our mum on the Monday and was asked to clear her room the same day and when we cleared her room a few days later
we had a member of admin close the door in my brothers face as we was bringing her stuff out to our cars, she never offered to hold the door open. Management never showed any respect whilst we was doing this and the day mum passed we parked our car in her space and she blocked us in. We moved our car and she walked past us without saying a word, and received a phone call a few days later asking us to remove chairs that did not belong to us but to another equipment provider. We also placed complaints to the home and never even received an email back to say they would look into the matters, so we put safeguarding to them instead. We found them uncaring and disrespectful at the end of Mum's life.

My grandmother was a resident in the nursing section since 2022. The care she received from a handful of carers and nurses was okay. There was a lack of basic care needs as well. She was bed bound and ended up with severe bedsores and moisture lesions that had not been brought to the attention of the
nurses until the family noticed and raised the concern. When medication was needed, they waited until the family would collect, leaving her without medication, and this happened numerous times. We had no support from management. Anytime we raised a concern, nothing was done. Complaints were put in and heard nothing back. When our grandmother did sadly passed away, the manager expected us to sort out the equipment that the home organised and refused to do this themselves and tried charging us for the room. There were no condolences from management when they saw us stood outside in tears, more worried about her parking space. Overall I would not recommend this home for your loved ones.

The care my mum received in her last weeks and days was dignified, caring and professional. She was able to pass away in peace and comfort. The staff were also very caring to myself and my sister. I couldn't have wished for better. It touched my heart that one of the care staff wash her, dressed her
and sprayed her favourite perfume when preparing for the funeral directors to take her. Thank you.

My 98-year-old father has been cared for since December 2023. I have never had any cause to worry about any aspect of his care. He can be quite difficult and all the staff know how best to handle him at these challenging moments. This gives me great peace of mind.

Despite being 'grumpy' at times, my father-in-law always appears to be well looked after and all of his needs are met by the staff.
Consequently, my wife and I are bale to get peace of mind knowing that my father-in-law is in such good hands.
I have no doubt about the challenge that the staff face
on a daily basis and they should be commended for their attention to his every need.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.695)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.695) out of 10 for Barchester Wingfield Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 54 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 51 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 4.695 for Barchester Wingfield Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (520 Excellents x 5) + (75 Goods x 4) + (18 Satisfactorys x 3) + (13 Poors x 2) + (11 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 637 Ratings = 4.695

  • 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 Barchester Wingfield Care Home is based on 51 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 89 registered maximum number of service users is 17.8, which has been reached with 51 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.
