Thank you for your feedback. It is so nice to hear that you are happy with the care and facilities that we provide. With regard to your feedback on the menu, I will pass this on to the kitchen team. We liaise with residents when designing the menu and do our best to ensure that everyone is happy with it. We are always happy to prepare alternative dishes where required. We will discuss the menu options with your mother to ensure that she is happy with the choices available.

Thank you for taking the time to review our home, whilst we are glad to hear that you were happy with the care received by your father-in-law, we are saddened to hear that you were not afforded the support that we pride ourselves on. I can assure you that this was an oversight, and lessons have been learned and shared with the team. Please accept our apology, we will be in touch to discuss this.

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.810) out of 10 for Westhill Park 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 39 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 39 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.
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 4.810 for Westhill Park is calculated as follows: ( (386 Excellents x 5) + (68 Goods x 4) + (10 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 464 Ratings = 4.81
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 Westhill Park is based on 39 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 66 registered maximum number of service users is 13.2, which has been reached with 39 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.

Job Title: Home Manager
Joined: 2021
In December 2009, I started a job as a support worker in a care home with no idea whether I would suit the role, I then became a senior support worker, then a team leader, a deputy manager, a project manager and then home manager, I think it's fair to say that I suited the role.
Sadly, there is a perception of care that is quite dated and conjures up images of dingy lounges and rice pudding. From day one I wanted to prove that good care homes can be fabulous places to live, that they were not institutions but homes with beautiful facilities and opportunities to really live, not just exist.
When I am making decisions about hiring, menus, activities, decor, I always imagine my family and think about what I would want for them. The people we care for are individuals with rich histories and I want them to remain so, nobody has to fit in here. We provide a service to meet individual needs and that is as it should be.
My favourite part of the job is working with my team; knowing that we are making a difference, I like to lead by example. I work hard to ensure that we are providing a high standard of care and that the home is a happy place.
Every day I work with families and other professionals to ensure our residents get the best service. I am caring and passionate about what I do.
Westhill Park is a fantastic home with hardworking and caring staff. The residents that live with us are amazing and have such individual characters and amazing stories to share. The staff take pleasure in getting to know them and their families, listening to their life histories enables them to form a bond and gain their trust.
One day I'd like to be a director of care, I won't be satisfied until I know that I have provided 5 star care to as many people as possible.
Working in social care is not a job, it's a vocation and I feel truly blessed to have found mine.
Job Title: Administrator
Joined: 2023
My name is Neve, I am the Front of House Manager/Administrator here at Westhill Park. I started here in 2022 as the Front of House Assistant and as of February this year, I took the amazing opportunity to take over as the Front of House Manager. Westhill has been my first job in care, and I've loved every moment, with no one day ever being the same! I work very closely with our Home Manager, Sharmaine and Care Manager, Tiff to make sure the whole of the Front of the House is running smoothly. I am also currently studying at the Open University to get my degree in Criminology.
Job Title: Head Chef
Joined: 2023
I am the head chef at Westhill. I joined the team at Westhill a year ago as a Kitchen Assistant and progressed to head chef after coming from a catering background for over 25 years. I have nearly always worked in care homes and love my job. The environment at Westhill is a lovely place to be. It’s home from home and my colleagues are great to work with. We all have the residents at heart and my role allows me to provide good, wholesome nutritious meals and also indulge them in a range of sweet treats and cakes which I really enjoy making for them.
Everything I cook or bake has a spoonful of love added to it!
Job Title: Housekeeping Manager
Joined: 2021
Hi, my name is Stephen and I am the Housekeeping Manager here at Westhill Park.
Firstly, I'm going to tell you about myself. I was born and raised in Stoke on Trent, I have lived up North and down South and I am currently living in Kettering. As soon as I left school I went straight into employment I have had various job roles but I found that I am best suited in the hospitality industry. I worked to achieve my NVQ Level 2 in hospitality during my working career.
I was employed as a Housekeeper once I started at Westhill Park but soon progressed into my role as Housekeeping Manager soon after.
The best part of my job is managing my team, working alongside the management to care for the residents who live here at Westhill Park.
