We found this care home to be very caring. The staff when we visited were pleasant and helpful. They helped us through a difficult transitional time with my brother who was placed there for respite care following an incident at home. My brother was very happy there and we are only moving him to be
nearer to us in the midlands. The home was clean and well kept.

Reply from Paul Lawson, National Sales Manager at Woodfield Grange Nursing Home

Thank-you very much for your review. We are delighted that your brother's stay went so well and we send him our very best wishes in his new home.

Simply put, I cannot rate Woodfield highly enough. Mum was recently diagnosed with cancer and although not officially diagnosed is demonstrating signs of dementia. Going from being fully independent to requiring full-time care, including oxygen in such a short time has been devastating for us. The team
at Woodfield are amazing. Mum's condition means she is often very confused, her attitude can be aggressive which it really pains me to say but the team are brilliant with her, always patient and caring. They can usually get a smile from her even on her bad days when she can't be bothered with family. We visit Mum often and we are always made welcome and provided with updates. The team are always happy to talk to us. Leaving Mum is always difficult but it's a huge difference and comfort to us knowing she is being looked after. Thank you!

Reply from Paul Lawson, National Sales Manager at Woodfield Grange Nursing Home

Thank you so much for your lovely review and high ratings. It gives us great pleasure that you feel that your dear mum is being well cared for at Woodfield and that you are so pleased with the service and with our wonderful staff team. Best wishes.

Offers a warm, friendly atmosphere where residents' individual needs are well catered for. The dedicated, kindly, caring and reassuring team encourage Mum to feel comfortable and develop friendships.

A great selection of food, prepared on-site, is on offer and served in the bright, airy dining room.

Mum came into Woodfield Grange Care Home on 21 November 2024. She had previously been in hospital after a fall and mini stroke. She spent 4 weeks in transition in another care home. She became down and depressed. She didn't want to interact with anyone and just stayed in her room. My husband and I looked
at a few alternative care homes but didn't feel any would be good for Mum. We came across Woodfield Grange and arranged a visit. On our visit we both felt this was the right environment for Mum. We were invited to take Mum for a visit and have her lunch there. This we did. As soon as we took Mum in she seemed to brighten up. The staff were very welcoming. Mum has been there a week and already she is going into the lovely bright lounge and eating her meals with the other residents. She has started to walk with the aid of her walker again, which she hasn't done for quite a while. We find the staff very attentive both to Mum and us. It seems like Mum has a new lease of life.

Reply from Paul Lawson, National Sales Manager at Woodfield Grange Nursing Home

Thank you so much for your lovely review. We are thrilled that your mum has settled in so well and is making such great progress in such a short space of time. It is especially pleasing to know that you and the family feel so reassured that Mum is being well looked after at Woodfield Grange. Best wishes

I have been visiting my friend once or twice a week since she moved into Woodfield Grange seven months ago. There is a friendly atmosphere. The staff are cheerful, caring and always willing to help. My friend's health and general well-being have improved in the time she has been there. She is content
and grateful to the staff. The nursing manager was particularly helpful and knowledgeable during our meeting with the community healthcare professionals and social worker. Thank you.

After my aunty was transferred to this nursing home from hospital, where she spent nearly ten weeks, we have been absolutely delighted with all aspects of her care. The home is extremely clean and very pleasant. All the staff are very caring, helpful and friendly. Her room is warm and her bed and bedding
is extremely comfortable for her (she unfortunately is now bedbound). The home has a very calm and caring atmosphere about it and we are just so glad that she was sent here!

My mum stayed at Woodfield Grange for 2 weeks respite to give me and my wife a break. The staff were great and really took good care of her, especially the activities coordinator as Mum likes to engage with activities that she enjoys. The room was clean and tidy and well laid out. Mum really enjoyed
the food and said the portion sizes were just right with a good choice of options available. While looking for a home for Mum we spoke to a few places but the manager at Woodfield Grange stood out, he seemed very knowledgeable and passionate.

Overall my father had a very good experience at Woodfield Grange. Unfortunately, due to mobility issues, he was unable to leave his room but he commented and we witnessed lovely care from everyone who worked there and it was so reassuring seeing my father laugh and joke and feel comfortable with everyone
who dealt with him. The only slight issue is that the rooms are on the small side so tight when using the hoist etc and there was an issue with another resident which unfortunately took a long time to deal with. Thank you again for taking care of my father.

My mum recently stayed at Woodfield Grange for respite and I was thoroughly delighted with everything from start to finish. From the first meeting with staff at our own home for the assessment my mum responded with lovely smiles for the manager. The whole staff team were amazing with not only my mum,
treating her with dignity and respect, but with my father and I when we visited. Mum had a lovely week with everyone at Woodfield Grange and we wouldn't hesitate in Mum staying for respite again. Thank you everyone.

Reply from Paul Lawson, National Sales Manager at Woodfield Grange Nursing Home

My father came to Woodfield Grange on 15th August 2024. He had complex care needs. I was apprehensive about him going into a nursing home, however I shouldn't have been - my dad received the care that he needed from all the staff for the short time he resided there. Nothing was too much trouble and
I had peace of mind knowing that he was comfortable and being well looked after. I was informed at once if anything happened and my family and I were always made welcome. Sadly Dad passed away but I know his last few months were good.

Reply from Paul Lawson, National Sales Manager at Woodfield Grange Nursing Home

Thank you very much for your review and on behalf of the whole team we extend our ongoing condolences for the loss of your dear father. We are reassured that we were able to offer the care and peace of mind you were hoping for and helped make the transition into a nursing home as easy as possible. We send our very best wishes to you and the family.

The team at Woodfield happily stepped in at very short notice when our resident needed it urgently. Suffering with dementia can cause its own challenges for individuals and changes to routine can have negative effects on people, the staff were kind, caring and compassionate and kept us up to speed every
week with how she was doing, her friendships she had built and helped reassure us all she was in good hands whilst family weere able to support her husband with a serious medical emergency, no ask was too small and the home happily extended her stay week by week to reduce stress on family. Wouldn't hesitate again in coming to the team at Woodfield for support, they've been a godsend and a lifeline.

Only a handful of staff actually care about the patients. Most of the time they are short staffed and not trained. My dad on regular occasions had freezing cold bed baths, food was terrible and arrives stone cold. Buzzers were never answered, at times I had to see to the lady in the next room as no
one would come and she'd be calling for help. I've witnessed waiting 45 mins with buzzer flashing, no one came so I had to chase and find staff. Before my dad was moved to this home he was promised a chair that was specific for his needs, he never got one. When we arrived the bed was too small and my dad ended up with bed sores on his feet, took around 4 weeks to get him a bigger bed. He was never turned, when staff were challenged they said he refused which was not the case. In the end palliative care, social services and safe guarding were not happy with the level of care my dad was recieving but by this point it was too late, he deteriorated quickly and passed away.

Reply from Paul Lawson, National Sales Manager at Woodfield Grange Nursing Home

We extend our heartfelt and continued condolences on the loss of your dear dad and apologise if you feel as though we didn't match your expectations. Rest assured that we take this kind of feedback very seriously as it is extremely unusual for our home to receive anything other than positive reviews. As such, the Safeguarding Team have conducted and now closed their investigations. However, as you are aware, our own Head of Quality and Compliance has acknowledged your complaint and is undertaking a thorough investigation and the results will be shared with you in the time frames specified. We do politely disagree with some of your comments and hope that by sharing our records we can reassure you about food and bath temperatures as well as call buzzer response times as these are all very closely monitored and recorded. In the meantime please let us know if we can offer any further assistance at this difficult time. Best wishes to you and the family.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.453)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.453) out of 10 for Woodfield Grange Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 33 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 30 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 4.453 for Woodfield Grange Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (259 Excellents x 5) + (80 Goods x 4) + (16 Satisfactorys x 3) + (4 Poors x 2) + (21 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 380 Ratings = 4.453

  • 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 Woodfield Grange Nursing Home is based on 30 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 36 registered maximum number of service users is 7.2, which has been reached with 30 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.
