Located in the serene suburb of Fallings Park, on Prestwood Road, Newcross Care Home in Wolverhampton has been an integral part of the local community for over seven years. The home provides considerate residential, respite and dementia care tailored to individual needs.

The architectural focal point of the building is its dome, adorned with art created by local students in collaboration with the renowned sculptor Michael Scheuermann. Numerous lounges facilitate socialising, participation in a lively activity schedule, or quiet contemplation.

All bedrooms are generously sized, featuring walk-in, en-suite showers, a DVD player and a flat-screen TV.

Friends and family are invited to contribute, particularly in engaging with residents living with dementia, to help create their life stories. A rich programme of activities caters to diverse interests, promoting mental and physical well-being in the company of peers.

We have been impressed how they have handled the pandemic, doing their best to keep everyone safe and keeping relatives informed of the latest developments regarding visiting in extremely difficult circumstances. In my opinion, the care workers deserve more money for looking after our loved ones.

Mom is very happy here, the staff tell me that she has always got a smile for them. Everyone is very professional and the level of care is excellent. Any issues are dealt with promptly. The covid restrictions obviously impacted upon the level of activities available. It would be good if the variety
of activities returned to normal because they were excellent. In January 2020 when Mom was admitted, she used a walking stick but now her mobility is much improved and she no longer uses her stick!

Our experience of Newcross Care Home has been very positive. Carers have been excellent, admin is efficient. During covid, staff have gone that extra mile to keep everyone safe and all residents entertained. They dealt with the death of my mother sensitively and Dad's ongoing dementia care has been
thoughtful and centred on his needs.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.861)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.861) 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 41 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 41 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 4.861 for Newcross Care Home - Avery Healthcare is calculated as follows: ( (428 Excellents x 5) + (56 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 490 Ratings = 4.861

  • 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 41 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 41 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

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. Residents, relatives and staff all form one happy community.


I look forward to welcoming you to Newcross Care Home.
