Mom arrived at Newcross Care Home in December 2022, since being there the change has been amazing. We go and see her and she is singing with staff and chatting with other residents. We watch her laughing and joking which we rarely saw in the previous care home. Newcross took Mom straight from hospital
after she broke her hip. The care she has received is second to none and staff call us with any concerns. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming, she takes part in activities and always looks happy and cared for, as a family we are very happy. Thank you to all.

My stepmother has recently become a resident at Newcross. She is very disabled physically and also has dementia. Right from her assessment at home until the present day, she has been given excellent care. Her treatment has been first-class, and she is treated with respect and kindness by staff who ensure
a calm environment and who meet her needs. Outside professionals, e.g. GP and physio, were alerted to her needs and gave prompt treatment. Accommodation and food are lovely, and the whole environment is comfortable and welcoming. Clinical staff have been extremely helpful to me as a relative. I highly recommend this home to others.

We found it hard finding a suitable home for my nan due to dementia and previous poor experience. Newcross was a breath of fresh air. We knew nan would love it and she does. She has settled in well and has made some new friends. Nothing is too much for the staff and nan is very well cared for. She loves
the food and is always busy with the activities. Newcross staff go above and beyond for their residents. Nan's room is always lovely and clean and warm, just how she likes it.

Grandad was admitted to Newcross as an emergency following admission of my nan. Welcomed into his new home and shown all of the wonderful facilities he can use. His room was very clean and warm. Grandad was comfortable and made some good relationships with the staff and nothing was ever too much trouble
- despite his grumbling. The staff at Newcross are amazing! Just an added note - the manager and deputy work really hard and are a welcome face to Newcross.

Thank you so much for your lovely comments on the caring, quality care that our staff had shown towards your nan. She was a truly special person, I remember her first day at Newcross Care Home.

My mother initially came in for respite care but became a permanent resident after the death of her husband. The care staff have all been amazing from day one, helping Mum through a difficult time. The doctor for the care home was already Mum's doctor, so this helped with Mum's transition. All the staff
are wonderful, and Mum loves them all. She has a beautiful room and looks forward to all the activities, especially the fitness class. Her hair is done every week in the salon, and she has regular pedicures and dental checkups. I am always kept up to date with any medical issues, and the staff is always available for any general updates. I can't fault Newcross Care Home and would highly recommend.

My mother has been a resident at Newcross Care Home for twelve months. From day one all of the staff made her transition from independent living to care home residency trouble-free. The staff are professional and friendly as well as treating my mother with dignity. Facilities at the home are excellent
including a wealth of monthly activities. In addition, the home operates an excellent relationship with a local Doctor and Dental Practice which has supported my mother when needed. I would not hesitate to recommend New Cross Care Home.

My mum came to Newcross Care Home after a fall resulting in a fracture which meant she was unable to go home. She could not walk very much but the care given by the staff has meant she is now walking with a frame and getting further each time this has meant she has kept her muscle strength. Mum is so
much brighter and getting involved in activities we never thought she would as the encouragement given by the staff is fantastic. They have taken away all of our worries as we know she is well cared for and they keep us informed of even the slightest change in her health and doctors and other teams are on hand should she need them. She is eating much better and looks healthier than she did at home. I cannot praise the staff here enough.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.872)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.872) out of 10 for Newcross Care Home - Avery Healthcare is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 40 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 40 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 4.872 for Newcross Care Home - Avery Healthcare is calculated as follows: ( (423 Excellents x 5) + (49 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 478 Ratings = 4.872

  • 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 Newcross Care Home - Avery Healthcare is based on 40 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 64 registered maximum number of service users is 12.8, which has been reached with 40 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.

Jenna Hughes

Job Title: Home Manager

Joined: 2017

Hello, my name is Jenna, and I am the home manager here at Newcross Care Home.


I joined Newcross in 2017 and have over 10 years of experience in the healthcare sector. Prior to becoming home manager here, I have had several previous roles, including senior care assistant, deputy manager at an Army nursery and a moving and handling trainer for the NHS. I am always looking into ways to develop my skills in the sector and have successfully done this by proudly accomplishing the NVQ levels 2, 3 and 5.


I would best describe myself as someone who is warm, welcoming and someone who is also on the go. In my downtime, I enjoy cheering my children on from the sidelines at their football matches.


Within my career, I have been lucky enough to meet many residents with all amazing stories and backgrounds. Seeing my residents happy and enjoying life each day gives me the motivation to perform at the highest level. One memorable moment that I will cherish forever was when one of my residents had difficulties walking. Using my experience, I referred them to occupational therapy, where he began to walk with assistance and without aids within two months. This is just one example of where I have been able to use my skills to better the lives of our residents.


Avery Healthcare, owners of Newcross, best stands out for their luxurious appearance and expectations of what quality care should be received by our residents. All staff receive continuous support and training. And our home is no different. Our home is unique as it is a true home from home. It is filled with an endless amount of fun, care and love.
