My mother suffers from mixed dementia/Alzheimer's. She lived alone in a very unsuitable property and the care at home team could no longer keep up with her needs. She moved into the home, initially for respite care 6 months ago.
As one would expect her mental condition remains a problem, but one that
the staff and management take completely in their stride. Physically she looks better than she has for years!
She loves the food.
There is nothing to give a negative review about, but the biggest positive by a mile must be the staff and management.

My 92-year-old mother was at Longbridge Deverill House from October 2016 until her recent death. She was treated with great care and kindness throughout. The staff are friendly and treated her with dignity. The food was excellent and staff took care to make sure she ate enough. During her final illness,
they were kind and considerate and kept us well informed throughout.

I would like to thank the whole team at Longbridge Deverill House for the superb care they gave my mum. Sadly she passed away a week ago, having been a resident for just over three years. Particularly in recent months, everyone afforded mum such care keeping her with them until the end. They treated
her with love and kindness, retaining her dignity and allowing her to spend her last days surrounded by warmth and loving care.
They have also given me peace of mind at such a hard time. I could not have asked for more and I cannot thank them all enough.

My mother entered Longbridge Deverill House for respite care originally. Decided to stay. Unfortunately, she died after a few weeks but during those weeks the staff treated her and us with the utmost kindness. We only had to make a passing comment and it was acted upon. The food was excellent. Apart
from the shabby decor in the communal areas I could find no fault and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this home.

For the brief period that my sister was in the nursing home she received every courtesy, care and consideration. I had brought her to UK by private ambulance from Belgium on 21st April. She died on 28th May. The staff took the trouble to find French speakers into which language my sister frequently
lapsed. My sister's condition was so frail on arrival that she was unable to make a recovery in spite of the best efforts of the nursing staff which I observed very frequently.

It is over a period now of some 2 years, first at Longbridge House and then onto Longbridge Nursing Home, my wife has always been cared for with loving care, the utmost dignity and attendance to her need by all the staff.
I have always been listened to being at any time concerned of her needs and
worries. I myself have always been welcomed by staff, I see her almost on a daily basis on my visits.
I can see that almost daily (except Sat/Sun) the staff have some form of entertainment for all the residents that with to park-take. Thank you all very much.

My impressions were very positive. The reception area was pleasant without being overly pretentious and the staff very helpful. The corridors were wide and the residents rooms, spacious, tastefully, furnished with floor to ceiling windows. There was no trace of the odours often associated with care
homes. The staff were at all times friendly and efficient and they displayed endless patience with even the most challenging residents. They managed my step-mothers complete immobility in a caring way always doing their best to make sure her dignity was not compromised, monitor in each room ensured any unusual incidents day or night would be investigated. Well-behaved pets were welcomed and my step-mothers much loved dog was a regular and popular visitor. When my step-mother was in her final hours a member of staff was with her at all times.

In the two years my friend has been in residential care I have witnessed nothing but kindness and professionalism from all staff, the unit manager and senior carer deserve a special mention for setting the high standards that all other staff follow. Visitors are made very welcome, the food is excellent,
activities and outings are suitable and enjoyable, all in all an excellent place to live. The house itself is not modern but it is extremely homely and doesn't smell; the garden is lovely and the residents are encouraged to sit outside in good weather (sun hats and lotion provided), there are chickens in the garden and cats wander about the house. When the end of her life came my friend could not have been in a better place, she didn't face death alone and died with dignity knowing she was loved and cared for.

My wife entered this home on 22 December 2015, suffering from dementia. I am very happy/pleased with the care that is provided. After some falls she had been sent to hospital for full check up, or in minor case has been seen by GP and nurse. I have been kept informed. Social activities are in place
and effective, and enjoyable. Staff are always polite, helpful and caring. All rooms are clean, tidy and comfortable. Heating is adequate. Visitors are always welcome and not restricted to set visiting hours. Professional visitors are hairdresser, religious ministers, chiropodist and GP doctor appointments are made when necessary. Very good. 10/10.

I chose Longbridge Deverill House for my mum just over two years ago. The first time I walked in, I knew it was the right place. The atmosphere is warm and caring and my mum receives excellent care, individually planned to cater for her changing needs as her dementia progresses. She is treated with
warmth and her dignity is maintained at all times.


Friends and family are welcomed and encouraged to join in with events. We are kept informed of any problems or issues. There is great importance placed on the happiness and well-being of all the residents. I always feel that I can approach the staff with any concerns I may have, they make a sad situation easier to cope with and there are smiles and laughter to enjoy and remember.

My partner went into Equality Care in December 2015 from a mental health hospital whilst she had a three month stay. I feel the home is the best I could have wished for. Very clean with excellent facilities and a real sense of care from all the staff and management nothing is too much trouble with three
course lunch each day. In the dining room all meals are high quality, all rooms are cleaned daily, I visit every other day and have has no reason to complain about anything they are just very helpful people. A great care home with a high standard of care.

My father was a resident for 11 months. He suffered from Alzheimers and was treated with care, compassion and dignity at all times. The staff were outstanding in their treatment of him and all others. They took the time to get to know him and us, his family and I would not fault one thing. Dad sadly
passed away in Nov 15 and chose to remain at the home for his end of life care. I was welcomed warmly and supported throughout and being there at the end was precious.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.675)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.675) out of 10 for Longbridge Deverill House and Nursing Home 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 38 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 36 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 4.675 for Longbridge Deverill House and Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (334 Excellents x 5) + (83 Goods x 4) + (20 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) + (3 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 443 Ratings = 4.675

  • 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 Longbridge Deverill House and Nursing Home is based on 36 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 80 registered maximum number of service users is 16, which has been reached with 36 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.
