My mother has been a resident at Wingfield Care Home since July 2023. She has received excellent care from all staff. The food choices are varied and look appetising. Always plenty to eat and drink. I feel content knowing Mum is in a safe environment and well looked after which puts my mind at rest.
She is offered to join in with a wide variety of activities. Thank you to everyone who is involved in Mum's care.

After visiting, I always feel so grateful for the kind, patient staff who look after Mum. I can see that they genuinely care about her, even when she is not compliant. I have also seen the lengths they go to in order to ensure Mum eats and drinks when she is too busy to do so. Having helped Mum eat
meals, it is clear that she enjoys the food - I think it is of a high standard.
On the very rare occasion that I have needed to raise an issue, it has always been dealt with in good time and taken seriously. It is difficult to comment on the management of the care home as there have been many changes. A long-settled period is needed.

Reply from Ansitha Sasi, General Manager at Barchester Wingfield Care Home

Thank you so much for your feedback, and our team would be very happy to see your kind words. I understand your concerns regarding changes in the management team. Please be reassured that we have a stable management team now, which includes the General Manager, who is also registered with CQC, a deputy manager, a Clinical lead, three unit managers and a night manager. We will work as a team to provide the best quality care for our service users. Please kindly get in touch with us if you have any concerns.

Resident is always happy and appears content in her new home. It's difficult to judge given her dementia but everything suggests she's well cared for, and is comfortable in her surroundings. We are also made to feel welcome when visiting. The only negative is the high cost of receiving such care.

Arrival on 22/06/2023, room not the one shown on pre-visit, far too small, no bumper pads on bed, no commode and no raised toilet seat. Groundfloor window, the houses next door could see in. After protest, the resident moved on 23/06 to a much better room upstairs. The resident was distressed the first
night and the first morning as hip wound was bleeding. Reassurance and support eventually. Service and care were satisfactory afterwards. Breakfast (served in room) often rather later. The resident did not join in any activities. I did not experience any food.

Reply from Feedback Team, The Feedback Team at Barchester Wingfield Care Home

Thank you for taking the time to add a review. We value all feedback and comments made to us so we can continuously improve our service. We were sorry to read that you felt the room provided wasn’t suitable and we understand that as soon as we knew about this, a room upstairs was provided instead for you. We do our very best to reserve specific rooms if requested and we are able to do so but sadly, we didn’t know that this was your preference and thought a ground floor room post operation would make things more comfortable. Once equipment concerns were addressed with the management team, they were instantly rectified to make your loved one as comfortable as possible during their stay with us. If you wish to discuss your concerns further, please feel free to do so by contacting our team on feedback@barchester.com so that we can further support you. Kind regards, Barchester’s Customer Feedback Team.

My mother moved into Wingfield Care Home for respite care in December 2022 for 2 weeks. During this time we extended her stay for a further 2 weeks, unfortunately, she passed away during her time at Wingfield she was so well looked after and cared for. We would like to thank all the staff who made her
final days safe, secure and comfortable.

My father has been at Barchester Wingfield Care Home, upstairs in 'Memory Lane' for over four years.
I can honestly say this is the best place I could wish him to be.
The care staff and nurses are truly fantastic, his room is really comfortable and the food is like a top hotel.
There are plenty
of activities laid on for him to do or he can simply rest in comfort.
The office staff and management are always happy to assist.
If you want your loved one to be surrounded by professional, caring and truly good people then choose this care home.
There is even a Doctors practice right next door on hand.
I highly recommend Wingfield Care Home in Trowbridge.

I needed emergency respite for my mum as my dad had to go to hospital following a 999 call. I phone 12-15 homes, and Wingfield was the only home able (and willing) to take Mum the same day. They took her after carrying out a phone assessment, and the whole process was as smooth as it could be in the
circumstances. For this, I am extremely grateful. In the two weeks, she was there, Mum was looked after very well by caring staff in a nice environment.

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.
