My husband is in his third respite visit and seems to settle well (after initially being indignant at being taken away from home). If he ever has to go into a home permanently I would certainly choose Larchfield House.

All the staff have been very welcoming and caring ever since my husband had to come here after a really distressing six-week stay in hospital. They are always aware of a residents need for assistance and are very patient and courteous in often extremely difficult situations. They respond readily to
any queries and will give clear explanations about health issues, welfare, nutrition, behaviour and other agencies involved in my husbands care and well being.

I like the breakdown into small communities and the level of staff to residents is better than in many care homes. However, the outstanding feature of Larchfield House is the performance of the staff. They are exceptionally attentive to the needs of those in care and they even anticipate my needs as
well as those of my wife. Another strong feature of the staff is that they are a team who actively support each other.

Staff are extremely helpful and friendly, going above and beyond. A person-centred homely environment and very supportive of both residents and family/friends.
My step-father is in the early stages of Alzheimer's if he needs to be accommodated, I'd want him here. Home from home and all the care values
met.

Larchfield is an excellent home providing everything my mother-in-law requires. Facilities available are excellent., all staff are approachable, friendly and responsive, nothing seems too much trouble.
Management clearly instils confidence in the staff and keep them motivated in what are difficult

We could not be happier to have my mother-in-law in this home. Thank you.

I am very grateful for the kind care given to my mother by all the staff at Larchfield House.
Their compassion is remarkable. Nursing staff are skilled. I feel that my dear mother is in good hands as she nears the end of her life.
I am particularly impressed by the good teamwork, good communication
and careful listening to the needs and vulnerabilities of the patient (and daughter).

We are extremely pleased with the care that mum receives at Larchfield House. The professionalism of all the staff is exemplary - from the owner, managers, all the carers and the office staff. We feel that mum is treated with dignity and is dealt with in a kind, friendly manner - even on the occasions
when she is being difficult.

My mother has been a resident at Larchfield House for 2 and a half years. In that time, she has always been cared for well.
I have noticed, however, that in that time, the care home has improved considerably. Reception is more welcoming and the food is improving all the time.
Thank you to your caring
staff.

My wife used Larchfield House 2 years ago and it has gone from a not very good home to the now bright delightful home it is now. Very clean and bright lovely caring staff. I'm not certain what activities you do with the residents but it would be good if you told the visitors what you do for the residents.
Things like singing, dancing and playing games to keep them active and entertained.

In the 6 weeks that Mum has been resident in Larchfield House her mobility and health has improved. We attribute this to the fact that she is very well cared for and that her eating, weight and health are monitored. The resident's portal on the website is an excellent tool that enables us to see her
daily activities, care, emotional and physical wellbeing - it provides us with the reassurance that we need if we are not int he local area and able to visit her. One of the reasons that we chose Larchfield House is that we felt it would be a lovely environment for the family to visit Mum. We have not been disappointed! The grandchildren and great-grandchildren enjoy visiting Mum and find Larchfield House very welcoming and friendly. The entire family have been very well supported and accurate help and advice have always been given, when requested.

Mum has been here now for just over 3 weeks, in that time I have been in most days and have met most of the carers involved in mums care and the other residents care. I have found them to be extremely efficient and friendly with a welcoming manner and a willingness to help wherever possible. I must
say they have all made mums stay to date an enjoyable experience for us as a family as well as for mum. We feel that our decision to place mum here was one of our best decisions, and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.777)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.777) out of 10 for Larchfield House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 35 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 35 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 4.777 for Larchfield House is calculated as follows: ( (339 Excellents x 5) + (50 Goods x 4) + (16 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 408 Ratings = 4.777

  • 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 Larchfield House is based on 35 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 98 registered maximum number of service users is 19.6, which has been reached with 35 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.
