I believe that Windmill Manor is second to none and I cannot thank every single member of staff enough. This is a very challenging time for me, as I have come to realise that my much loved Dad needs round the clock care. I have always found the fantastic team at Windmill Manor to be remarkably caring,
knowledgeable and meticulous. Their professionalism has made this difficult situation as easy as it can be. The carers have not only treated my father with respect but also they seem to know him really well and care deeply about him. Thank you all.

In all ways, I have found all the staff in the home to be very helpful to my family with regards to my Uncle needing to be a resident in the home. They have all been sympathetic, understanding and helpful.

Mum has been at Windmill Manor for nearly two and a half years and is approaching her 101st birthday. As a family, we know that had we not moved mum, she would not have made it to her 100th! The care and love that she receives from all the staff is second to none. Being the age she is now, she sleeps
a great deal, but she does not miss out. When she is awake, she is fully involved with the activities that go on. Mum's diet is very good, with nutritional drinks being given and enjoyed. There is a new doctor, who is so caring - speaking to family members when he sees you. As a family, we have been able to relax knowing that mum is being well looked after. She has no pain and is on no medication.

After myself and my brother had come to a decision to move my mother out of a care home, which we both felt was very poor in all departments, we found this care home which I viewed and was very happy with. We moved my mother into this one.
Since she has been here, I find every time I have been in to
see her, the carers have been very caring and professional in their jobs, which is a breath of fresh air. I can't imagine how people can do such a demanding job.
I can see my mother is cared for very well, as she looks so much better in herself. It's been a short time since coming here but the improvement in my mother is down to the hard work of everyone in this care home
The only regret is I wish we had found this place earlier.
I can't thank the carers enough.

How nice it is to go in and be greeted by happy friendly staff. Love the family area and it is nice and clean, my mother is much happier here than the previous nursing home. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants a relation to be in a great place.

We couldn't have chosen a better care home for our Mum. You cannot fault the care and attention she gets from all the staff - regardless of their job at the care home. Wonderful facilities, surroundings and entertainment. Our Mum is having a great time - company, entertainment and being attended to.
We really enjoy visiting her and getting involved with the activities we can also attend. Lovely, friendly atmosphere that makes us feel welcome. We are coming here when it is our turn.

The staff are great and in my opinion, underpaid given that the home costs in excess of £4,800 PCM. It would be nice to see them being paid more for what is a very hard job. Dad's carers are what made me choose this home in the first place, they are fantastic.

Welcoming to residents and relatives. Communication systems a bit hard to fathom (who to ask about what). I think some of this info could be in written form in a 'welcome pack'. Staff are approachable and reassuring - relationships between residents and carers are warm and engaging - they know the residents
well. :)

My mother in law has a very sad case of dementia and I have found on my visits everything to be satisfactory in terms of her care and well-being. My wife (her daughter) sees her almost every day is in a better position to make a detailed judgement. I find the activities programme to be really progressive
in her care.

I think the people who run the care home are very good. The carers are brilliant, they look after the residents very well and are always available to answer questions. The activity people do a very good job there is something for everyone.

My mother has lived in the home for a while and is happy and cared for. I find the staff who sometimes have to deal with challenging residents, as the home is for those with dementia, excellent in their care of my mother and cannot fault their kindness to her and to my family.

All my experiences at the home have been very friendly. My Mother-in-Law always looks clean and taken care of. I wish more old music was played during the day.

Thank you for taking the time to share your views about the care and support that your mother in law is receiving, I will speak to the team about the music and ask them to play more during the day.

I found it very difficult to make the decision that it was time for mum to go into a home. I had always said I would not do it so the guilt was off the scale. Mum has mixed vascular Alzheimer's. Stopping in her own home meant she became a danger to herself as she lived alone. The staff were marvellous
and she settled very quickly. She has been at Barchester Windmill Manor Care Home for almost five years now and has been happy. For the first three years, she had a better social package than me. Then we found out mum had lung cancer, the level of care she has received is second to none. Everyone from the manager to the chef and everyone between has been so supportive of her changing needs and also my own.

Windmill Manor provides my sister with all of her needs. The accommodation is comfortable and warm. The food is varied and good. There is ample room to walk around and a pleasant garden area.
The "social" room is large with plenty of chairs and a TV. The activities are varied and well organised with
residents taking an active part.
Music and singing is very popular and well attended.

My wife has been at Barchester Windmill Manor Care Home since February '16. Overall, the care has been good. Some staff are excellent. My wife has had medical problems and the have responded well with either the doctor being called or the ambulance called and she was in hospital with a chest infection.
I like the way residents can express a likeness for certain foods. (My wife likes mushroom and eggs).

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.
