The staff are all excellent from the Clinical Lead down to the hospitality and cleaning staff.
They all treated our father with the utmost care and dignity as if he was their own father.
The lovely food and environment helped extend his life I am sure. I am so glad he was able to live in such beautiful
surroundings with lovely gardens to enjoy.

Our experience with Wood Norton has been very positive. The staff have always been sensitive, caring and respectful to the service user. In their words "I cannot fault the staff" for us as friends/relatives the staff have been extremely responsive and given us all the time we needed. They have also
been willing to bend over backwards to meet the service users wishes (i.e decorate bedroom)
Finally, we have valued and appreciated the balance between professionalism and the personal touch.

I first visited the palliative care unit to view the facilities on offer, as our father was not expected to survive more than a few weeks. The welcome I received was warm and considerate; nothing was too much trouble. Our father moved to the Richmond Wood Norton unit, where he received outstanding
palliative care. It could not have been more different from the terrible treatment he was receiving in the hospital. Attention to detail at the Woodnorton is impressive. His room was beautiful with a fantastic view out over the countryside. His clothes were all labelled, laundered and put away. All the staff are warm, friendly and considerate - they take time not only to care for the patient but also for the family/visitors - they talk to you and explain what is happening. They sang to my father when they took care of him. His pain relief was carefully managed and he was made as comfortable as possible for his last few days. I cannot thank them enough. The place is brilliant.

This is a beautiful, extremely well run care home, more like a 5 star hotel. All the staff, including sales staff, reception, restaurant, cleaners and all the carers are all exceptionally caring and friendly, nothing is too much trouble. Mum loves it there!

Father came to Richmond Village Wood Norton for his end of life care, and from the moment he arrived, he was treated with dignity and respect, giving his family peace of mind at a difficult time. From my experience with the home over this period I am sure that our father got the very best of care that
was to an extremely high standard. Thank you so much.

A beautifully appointed place, with plenty of quiet areas. Rooms are an adequate size and the wet room is excellent. Not long been open as a care home so it is difficult to judge how it would be when there are more residents. Plenty of activities on offer, if residents choose to join in. Bespoke training
for specific illnesses, e.g. Parkinsons's would be beneficial. Everyone is very kind and helpful.

My mum was a resident for two weeks on the care unit at Wood Norton. The love, care and support she was given was exceptional and indeed our family. She was treated with such dignity equal to her being at home. I cannot thank the staff enough for their professionalism they were incredible so loving
and caring it made the situation we were in so much easier to deal with and for my dad to face the future. I cannot thank them all enough or recommend Wood Norton village more highly.

My parents moved to Wood Norton on the Care Floor in the middle of May 2019. Although there are no double or connecting rooms, they do have rooms next to each other which is a real bonus. They both need assistance in getting about and the carers are very supportive of making sure my parents spend as
much time together as they want.
They are settling in well now thanks to the care, consideration and friendliness of all the staff.
My father had his 95th birthday last week and the catering staff really put themselves out so our Family could have a lunch party within easy access of their rooms. In the afternoon we moved out onto the terrace for tea and cake to which other residents on the floor were invited. It made for a very sociable afternoon for us all.
I have no reservations in recommending Richmond Wood Norton Care Home to anyone who is looking for quality, dignity in care in delightful surroundings.

Reply from Jack Phillpot, Marketing at Richmond Villages Wood Norton

Thank-you so much for your very kind review Deborah. We are delighted to have your parents on Hanbury and trust we will go on providing the very best level of care for them both. Happy Birthday to your Father!

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.681)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.681) out of 10 for Richmond Villages Wood Norton is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 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 4.681 for Richmond Villages Wood Norton is calculated as follows: ( (187 Excellents x 5) + (22 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) + (6 Poors x 2) + (5 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 226 Ratings = 4.681

  • 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 Richmond Villages Wood Norton is based on 18 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 18 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.
