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.

Encouraging resident involvement in shaping home life cultivates a sense of shared ownership. 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.

Under the Covid rules, I visited my dad on the afternoon of Thursday 19th November and was amazed how well he looked after being so poorly earlier in the year. He looked smart and well cared for, but above all, happy. I would like to thank the carers and everyone concerned, for all their efforts in
returning him to his current state of health and making his day-to-day living at Newcross so comfortable. We, his family, are just so happy we found you!

My Mum spent her last six weeks in the care of Newcross Care Home. During that time, she received nothing but love, care and kindness from the staff there and was treated with the greatest dignity. The staff were always available to speak to us by telephone and during Mum's last days when we were able
to visit, looked after us with so much kindness and thoughtfulness. I have no hesitation in recommending this lovely care home.

Staff understood "personalised resident care" - care was tailored to the needs of my uncle. Knew his background, personal history and were able to talk to him and engage him in conversation which helped his dementia. He was treated with dignity - always addressed by name, staff knocked on door before
entering etc, able to lock his door if wished. He was always clean, shaved and appropriately dressed. Activities were tailored to his interests, never forced to participate. Communication with family was very good. He was happy.

My father and my uncle have both been cared for by this care home in the last stages of their lives.
After losing my Dad last year, my uncle needed fulltime care, and my sisters and I wanted him to be looked after as well as my Dad had been, so placed him in Newcross Care home.
It is an amazing
place; the staff are wonderful and can't do enough for the residents. We knew that they were well fed, cared for, safe, and most of all happy in your care.
We can't thank you enough!

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.
