Staff at Nottingham’s Westwood care home are celebrating after achieving a 10/10 review score on carehome.co.uk.

The residential and dementia  care home received the score on 9 January, making Westwood one of the top five highest rated care homes in Nottinghamshire.

Home manager Claire Phillips said: “Westwood is a home from home for our staffing team, our residents, their families, and any visiting professionals. I truly believe the welcoming, open, and supportive environment we provide are the key to our successes.”

She added:  “We strive together to minimise vulnerabilities, enhance capabilities, give empowerment, enjoyment, and continued life satisfaction.  Our home feels alive, the happiness of our residents is paramount and clear to see, I could not be prouder of all staff and their continued care and dedication.”

The granddaughter of one resident who moved into the home in December 2023 said: “I am overwhelmed with all the care and love given by all staff to make sure everyone is cared for and kept safe.”

Westwood Care Home, operated by Runwood Homes, features 79 ensuite bedrooms over two floors.
