  • Lammas House Residential Care Home, Coventry
The team at Lammas House are proud to be a CQC Outstanding rated home in Coventry (January 2019), and when you visit you can see why. Passionate about enriching the lives of their residents, many of the staff have been with the home for over ten years.

Providing residential care, they also offer pre-bookable respite care breaks. These are ideal for carers who would like to take a short break themselves, with the peace of mind of knowing their loved one is being well cared for and enjoying a break of their own.

The team creates so many activities and experiences which bring joy to their residents. From animal therapy and baking to growing their own fruit, vegetables and herbs, which are then used by the chef in the kitchen.

There is also a Lammas House Choir, who fill the home with the sound of music and perform for their loved ones, a book club and knit and natter group.

And talking of food, the chef prepares delicious, home-cooked meals, from roast dinners with all the trimmings, freshly made soups and lighter bites to themed menus for special occasions. He also creates home-made cocktails and there are freshly baked treats each day for afternoon tea.

Lammas House also offers private dining, where residents and their loved ones can enjoy a delicious three-course meal, prepared by the home’s chef, in a quiet lounge with a bottle of wine.

The team are passionate about the residents having a very active role to play in how their home is run. There is a resident ambassador who does everything from chairing residents’ meetings and providing feedback to the team, to welcoming new residents and families.

The local community are embraced into life in the home, with local school children visiting regularly to sing for the residents and take part in activities.

There is also a hair salon for weekly appointments with a mobile hairdresser. A chiropodist also visits for regular appointments.

If you're looking for a care home for a loved one, Lammas House ticks all the right boxes.
The rooms are spotlessly clean, the staff are excellent and really do care about the residents' requirements.
They organise daily activities and encourage all the residents to get involved. The food is excellent
and the chef ensures that everyone's needs are catered for.
Seeing Mum happy, makes this an easier process.

Mum moved into Lammas House earlier this year and was made welcome. Her freshly decorated, comfortable room was beautiful. Staff made every effort to get to know Mum and encouraged her involvement in the range of varied activities available. In addition, time and attention were spent ensuring that mum's
dietary needs were met and delicious tasty meals were offered which we know she enjoyed. Sadly Mum's condition deteriorated and we were told after a recent hospital admission that Mum was at the end of her life.
During this painful and difficult time, the support provided to Mum and our family was exceptional. Staff went above and beyond to meet the needs of the whole family whilst we stayed with Mum during the final days of her life, providing choice, care, food and drink in a respectful and sensitive manner. It is so hard to put into words what that meant to our family. We will never forget the care shown, it will stay with us forever.
To the incredible staff at Lammas, we thank you all.

My aunt needed temporary respite care following a fall, and is spending a few weeks to recover at Lammas House. She has been very well cared for, and the staff have been wonderful. She has had her hair done a few times, and looks lovely, and has participated in some of the activities offered by the
team.
The meals are freshly cooked, and she has eaten meals in the restaurant and her own room. Every staff member I've met has been helpful, polite and pleasant.
I live many miles away, and can only visit once a week, and the Lammas Team were able to arrange transport and an escort to take my aunt for a hospital scan, which was a huge help. They are able to set up a petty cash arrangement so can purchase toiletries etc when needed for her. They have also arranged for the GP that covers Lammas House to see her, and they manage her medication.
The support I have been given in person and through calls and emails, especially from two members of staff in particular has been fantastic.

My husband thoroughly enjoyed his respite stay in Lammas House. It was his first experience of residential care and he soon settled in with the care and support of the lovely staff.
The food was excellent with plenty of choice and plenty of snacks throughout the day. He would have no concerns about
having a further stay if circumstances necessitate it. Many thanks to all the staff for their care and support.

I visited my aunt to celebrate her birthday with the rest of the family. She looked lovely. The staff had done her hair beautifully and put makeup on her. We had dinner for eight people in an upstairs dining room. Beautiful three-course dinner with wine etc. The staff couldn't have been more attentive.
They even made a birthday cake with candles and sang to her. We really could have been at our own home.

Our mum died this January after two and a half years at Lammas House. I am placing this review to acknowledge the outstanding care that the team provided to Mum during that time. I feel they cherished her as we did. It is hard to pick out particular aspects as everything was so good but her key workers
were so respectful but also had such fun with her - she loved to laugh about life. The chef and team made beautiful meals every day and as she became less able to manage a regular diet, they adapted her meals so that they were still tasty and appealing. The activities coordinator was so friendly, enthusiastic and sensitive and always found ways to involve Mum in what was going on. The night staff who we didn’t meet so often were so kind to her. Lammas House staff helped us so much through Mum’s last days - we will never forget their kindness.

My Mum was cared for by the wonderful staff at Lammas House between June 2020 up until her passing in January this year. I cannot praise the home enough for the level of service and attention they provided. She was always dressed well and had her hair done regularly by the hairdresser. The home accommodated
her needs as they changed and ensured she received appropriate nutrition. The level of catering is out of this world. There were always activities and the home has an atmosphere more like a family home. Independence is also respected for those who prefer to be in their rooms rather than communal areas. I would be very happy to chat to anyone about our experience also.

My mother has been at Lammas House Residential Care Home for approximately two months. She has settled in well. She has been well looked after, met some lovely residents and staff and thoroughly enjoys every meal. She is warm and comfortable and enjoys the company and activities. The staff are very
accommodating and are always available to answer any questions my sisters or I ask.
Thank you team.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.911)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.911) out of 10 for Lammas House Residential Care Home 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 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 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 4.911 for Lammas House Residential Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (166 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 180 Ratings = 4.911

  • 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 Lammas House Residential Care Home is based on 15 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 23 registered maximum number of service users is 4.6, which has been reached with 15 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.
