My mother has been a resident at Windmill Manor since April 2021. Despite the Covid restrictions, I have been able to visit my mum in her bedroom to get a sense of both her well-being and the care provided. I have met very nice, friendly and professional staff who keep me updated on my mother’s health.
I am hoping the residents will be able to spend more time in the garden as the time spent indoors has been too long.

Reply from Amanda Gunner, General Manager at Barchester Windmill Manor Care Home

Thank you so much for your lovely comments. Please be reassured that we encourage all our residents to spend time outside either in the garden or on our large balcony on Memory Lane. We often have lunch outside or various activities weather permitting. Please also just let us know if you would like to take your mother out from the home instead of having an indoor visit.

My mother was very poorly when she first arrived at Barchester Windmill Manor Care Home and thanks to the wonderful care she has received she is a different person, happy and much stronger. The staff are amazing, so friendly and helpful and nothing seems too much trouble even when it is clear they are
very busy. I have learned more about my mum's condition and how I can support her when I visit. Thank you Barchester Windmill Manor Care Home.

Windmill Manor is clean, tidy and modern. The staff are very welcoming and communication is excellent. The staff look after my mum very well, she always looks clean and well cared for, including attention to keeping her hair tidy and trimmed. We feel that we are very lucky to be able to visit each week

Visited my father in the Covid 19 indoor space. I felt safe and knew that my father was safe due to the protocols in place. I felt sad that I could not give my father a hug but we touched fingers against the Perspex.

My husband is a long-term resident in Windmill Manor. He is very well looked after and treated with great kindness and compassion.
The majority of the staff are exceptional. The carers and nurses, although sometimes stretched, give the best care possible. I am always made to feel welcome and I am kept
well informed of any changes in his health.
During the current Covid crisis it seems that every precaution has been taken to ensure residents are kept safe. Guidance for recent restricted visiting has been clear and well managed.

Reply from Amanda Gunner, General Manager at Barchester Windmill Manor Care Home

Thank you for your lovely review. It is so nice to read how you feel and that you are so happy with the care he is receiving. Its a joy caring for him, and an honour to know that you feel the same. We look forward to seeing you soon.

Our Mum has been a resident at Windmill Manor for about five months. The care and support she receives are absolutely fantastic. Mum's needs have changed rapidly during her stay so far and not only have those needs been met, but she seems content. her health has stabilised and she seems content with
her carers and environment.

My father has been cared for in a kind and empathetic manner throughout the time he has lived at Windmill Manor. The majority of staff do their utmost to meet the individual requirements of all the residents and have endeavoured to understand my father's personality and needs. I am confident that I
am kept updated and alerted to any changes in his condition. The vast majority of the staff are friendly, welcoming and caring. I would recommend Windmill Manor to others requiring a dementia specialist nursing home.

My mother has been in this care home for two years. She has had extremely good care. All the staff, without exception, are kind and caring. Although very busy, the staff always find the time to chat if you have any queries.
The only downside is the high turnover of staff and moves to other parts of
the home.

Very wary originally due to poor respite care experience elsewhere. However, delighted with Windmill Manor. My husband was smiling and clean and enjoyed his stay. Staff were very reassuring and nothing was made to be a massive problem. This was his first week, but he settled in well and enjoyed the
food and fun atmosphere created by the carers. This was not easy as my husband is aphasic.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.815)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.815) out of 10 for Barchester Windmill Manor 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 29 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 29 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 4.815 for Barchester Windmill Manor Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (289 Excellents x 5) + (50 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 346 Ratings = 4.815

  • 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 Windmill Manor Care Home is based on 29 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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, which has been reached with 29 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.
