Overall, in the 7 years my wife has lived here, I have always rated the carers very highly. The staff resolve any issues and takes into consideration the needs of the residents and my wife's condition.
Overall, in relation to my wife's condition, the people who have looked after her over the years,
have provided high-quality care. I can't thank the staff enough.
Would recommend this home.

My father is at the care home. He had previously been rejected by other care homes due to his challenging behaviour.
The team are highly skilled and offers person-centred care. My father is well looked after and the team will keep me informed of his progress.
Would highly recommend this home.

I have always found my sister is very well cared for. The staff are always very helpful, I would say excellent. Any query is always answered straight away, they treat my sister with great respect always. They do a difficult job with care and kindness and a ready smile.

I think Willowcroft is an excellent care home. The staff are very friendly and helpful and deal with my brothers' problems in a very efficient and capable manner. The staff are very good at communicating with me about any issues of concern. Many activities are provided for the residents, and there are
regular family meetings where any issues can be discussed.

The care home is very well-run. It is a pleasant environment, the staff are efficient and caring. The meals are good and varied, the activities are diverse. The rooms are nicely decorated and they can have their own things around them.
I am very satisfied with the care home and my husband is happy
there.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.807)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.807) out of 10 for Willowcroft Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 10 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 4.807 for Willowcroft Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (96 Excellents x 5) + (23 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 119 Ratings = 4.807

  • 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 Willowcroft Care Home is based on 10 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 40 registered maximum number of service users is 8, which has been reached with 10 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.
