My mum went to live at Ashgrove nearly a year ago, after quite traumatic circumstances. All the staff, especially two of them were just wonderful. They gave us limitless kindness, understanding and support and that continues every day whenever we need it.
Because of the staff, Ashgrove House, in my
opinion, stands head and shoulders above other care homes. It really does feel like a home from home. It has such a warm and friendly atmosphere, there is always laughter and chatter and it seems like one big happy family. My mum has flourished since she moved there and I feel confident that she has the best quality of life possible.
It's also reassuring to know that the staff have so much experience, knowledge and endless patience. It is very apparent how much the staff care about each of the residents and they go above and beyond to make their lives as happy and comfortable as possible. The manager is an inspiration. I can only imagine how challenging her role must be.

Our dad was here for just under 2 years. He received the best and most personal care unfortunately that we couldn't give. The staff always knew who we were and talked to us lots and had good communication when doctors came. When dad passed they were compassionate and asked how we were, whereas they
looked after him 24 hours a day and could see they were upset but professional at all times. As a family, we wouldn't have wanted dad anywhere else and we are grateful for the care of all the carers and everyone who worked there. What an amazing job they did looking after him. We are very grateful and a massive thank you to everyone. Love from all.

Current Review Score: 7.8 (7.834)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 7.8 (7.834) out of 10 for Ashgrove House 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 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.2 out of 5 from 1 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 4.667 for Ashgrove House is calculated as follows: ( (9 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 4.667

  • 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 3.167 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Ashgrove House is based on 1 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 = 3

    • 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 30 registered maximum number of service users is 6. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 6 = 0.167

  • 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.
