My mother spent her last two and a half years in Wimbledon Common Care home. All measurable things: cleanliness, food, facilities are excellent. But most outstanding and far more important is the quality of the staff. Everyone I met was kind, cheerful and concerned to be doing the best for my mother.
I find this so impressive given the difficult nature of their work at times. All such problems were met with enormous good humour, which served to cheer me up on occasion. I know that my mother felt safe and happy in this home, which is not easy when you have to give up your own home and independence. When she needed to see a doctor this was easily manageable and she also had dental work done on site. The reception staff are also delightful and Hannah is a friendly and approachable manager. I remain delighted with our choice.

I have been delighted by how well my mum has settled in at Wimbledon Common Care Home. She is most comfortable in her own spacious bedroom with a well equipped en-suite and she enjoys spending time in the communal areas which are always immaculate and beautiful decorated at commemorative times of the
year. A varied programme of activities has been provided and my mum has had many chances to enjoy interesting trips outside the care home.

My mother has been a resident of Wimbledon Common Care Home - Avery Collection since September 2022. My mother receives very good care. She always gets a very warm and cheery welcome from all members of staff. All the staff are extremely professional, courteous and caring. I can see that they work together
to make a happy, caring and safe environment for the residents that is also respectful. The activities are superb, recently I attended a very beautiful and moving Remembrance Day ceremony for the residents in the reception. I'm very glad that my mother is taken care of so well. Thank you to all staff.

I chose Wimbledon Common Care Home because of its proximity, newness and facilities but what I could not have known was how special the people are who cared for my mom. They went above and beyond and shown my mum love, compassion, respect and dignity at every step. One of my friend's Mum has already
moved here on my recommendation and could not be happier. The team will look after your loved one as if they were their own.

Came here for a week's respite. My first experience with a care home and I was pleasantly surprised. Wimbledon Common Care Home is bright and cheerful, small enough to feel quite intimate. Permanent residents in spite of their various conditions look resigned and content and some are even welcoming
to new residents like myself. The routine works well, the activities are enthusiastically organised, the staff are attentive and friendly and the food is excellent.

A happy place. The staff are happy, fun, professional and kind. Nothing is ever a problem. I have never heard anyone talk down to any resident. The food is excellent with a wide choice. It is clean and tidy with lots of indoor and outdoor imaginative activities. Management can't do enough, always there
to support, listen and care very kind. GP visits frequently. Me and mum feel very supported and happy. I would certainly go there when I'm ready - whether for respite or permanent. Love, love, love this place. GP visits frequently. Thank you all for everything you do!

My mother had dementia and was so well looked after by the whole team at Avery Wimbledon for the two and a half years she lived there. There is a lovely sense of community in the home, and the standard of care was exceptional, particularly in the last weeks of her life, she was treated with great kindness
and dignified care by the lovely team.
We are so glad we chose Avery Wimbledon, mum settled in so well when she first moved there, she had a lovely room, surrounded by her own paintings and furniture, delicious food, and carers who took time to get to know her and her routines. The home is well run by the excellent management, and we have always been welcomed so warmly when we visited. We are very grateful to all the amazing carers and staff for everything they did for mum, and for us, we will miss them! Thank you all.

My partner came to Signature Wimbledon for a kind of convalescence/rehabilitation stay after a cancer operation and a bad reaction to chemotherapy. What none of us realised is that she should have stayed in hospital, because she was about to take a turn very much for the worse. This put a lot of pressure
on the Signature staff as they weren't expecting so much medical care to be required. They stepped up as fast as they could by calling in the GP and district nurse and they proved themselves to be very caring.
The Signature facilities are 5-star, but unfortunately, my partner did not participate in very much and died after 2 weeks in the home.

My father moved to Signature at Wimbledon in March 2021 but sadly passed away recently, in April 2023. I wanted to write to say what a pleasure it has been for my father to be looked after by all the staff at the home, and despite losing my mother two years ago, he was cared for in every possible way,
both physically and emotionally.
The home is wonderful, and all the carers, activity staff, kitchen staff, dining staff, housekeeping, reception and management have been exceptional. Always smiling, nothing is too much trouble, and there is always a lovely cup of tea and homemade cakes to welcome you when you arrive.
My father was happy at the home as there was always something to occupy his mind, and he enjoyed the outings to some lovely places. Afternoons and weekends were especially nice when someone from the Academy of music would come to play for the residents, which you could see by their faces they always enjoyed. I am so grateful that my father was happy in his latter years.

My mother has been living in the dementia community at Signature at Wimbledon for over a year and has settled in really well; we are very happy with the care she receives. The care team work hard to keep the residents entertained and take them on trips out of the home. The food is restaurant quality,
and the accommodation is akin to a luxury hotel rather than a care home which makes visiting for family and friends so much more enjoyable.

Signature was a wonderful home for my mother for six months, from when she became a resident until she passed away. The team there is very well-organized and extremely caring, and always go the extra mile to make residents' lives as rich as possible. I will never forget the personal kindness that so
many of them showed to my mother and me. I recommend Signature at Wimbledon without any hesitation at all for anyone who is considering this kind of residential care.

There were staff shortages and a Covid outbreak at Christmas - no help given for bathing. Lack of clarity over medicine and promised bacs not arranged. Internal and external communications were poor. Offer of respite care turned out to be over-sold and not delivered. The food and furnishings were good.

Reply from Care Team, Signature at Wimbledon at Wimbledon Common Care Home - Avery Collection

Many thanks for the review, and we are sorry that you believe we did not meet the standards you were expecting.
With the consent of your wife, we will happily go through the care notes with you to identify where you believe we fell short. Please do contact us by phone if you would like to arrange a time to meet.
I hope you can appreciate that the BACS referral was out of our control, although we did our best to chase it up.
Regards,
Signature at Wimbledon

The staff in reception were always very helpful and proactive.
The nursing staff took a real interest in looking after her very professionally and at awkward times.
The staff in the kitchen were always very obliging and helpful.
The staff always made time to speak to her and made her stay pleasurable.

Mum was very well cared for over the months that she was at Signature at Wimbledon.

Thank you, Signature at Wimbledon.

Based on a recommendation of a previous 'user', I booked two weeks of convalescent care following a major operation. It proved to be a wise choice. I was impressed by the quality of accommodation and facilities and, more importantly, of the management and in-house staff. The quality of the few contract
staff I met varied.
The restaurant offered an excellent choice at breakfast and a good choice at lunch and supper. I appreciated the flexibility provided by the two-hour window at each meal. There was a full programme of activities, including outings to the park, and the management and staff arranged a highly enjoyable Halloween Party - even if it was 12-days early!
I so enjoyed myself that I stayed for a third week.
I have no hesitation in recommending this care home.

I have nothing to say other than praise for the staff, without exception, they are pleasant and friendly in manner, always ready to help or listen or fo any little take if needed (like for insurance, of I am in the lounge and to tied to go to my room for something, they will cheerfully nip to my room
for me, and if I'm in bed and need anything, the same applies). All the residents say, like me, how kind, helpful and willing they all are to help.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.577)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.577) out of 10 for Wimbledon Common Care Home - Avery Collection 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 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 12 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 4.818 for Wimbledon Common Care Home - Avery Collection is calculated as follows: ( (122 Excellents x 5) + (16 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 143 Ratings = 4.818

  • 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 4.759 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Wimbledon Common Care Home - Avery Collection is based on 12 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 79 registered maximum number of service users is 15.8. 12 Positive Reviews ÷ 15.8 = 0.759

  • 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.
