My mother has settled down very well considering she was not keen on going into a home, but has come to terms over the last four months it was the only choice. This has been down to the excellent staff making her welcome and comfortable.

The staff all seem very helpful and cheerful. Peter has been at Ashurst Park for a month and has settled in well. He likes the food and his appetite has increased. At his advanced years and immobile state, he does not enter into many activities. Visitors are always made welcome.

My mother has been in Ashurst Park for respite care three times and has been well treated by the helpful and friendly staff. She now is being cared for full time there it was the first place I wanted her to go because I knew she would be safe and I wouldn't worry about her because she likes it so much
there.

My mother came to Ashurst Park for two weeks respite care. The place is light and airy with wide corridors of a central hub. The manager and staff could not have been more patient and understanding and did everything in their power to make mum feel welcome and part of the community.

My elderly mother was CHC Fast Tracked to Ashurst Park Care Home just 2 days before Christmas 2016. The staff worked amazingly over the next few days, to help my mother, who has dementia, breast cancer and now a secondary cancer settle as quickly as possible, in what was a very confusing time for her.
It was very stressful for the family, but I have nothing but praise for the way all the staff helped. They are so kind and caring, and the home and rooms are beautiful. I finally feel relaxed in the knowledge that hopefully, my mother will live her remaining time in a safe, caring and wonderful place. Thank You Ashurst Park!

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.581)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.581) out of 10 for Ashurst Park Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 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 4.581 for Ashurst Park Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (120 Excellents x 5) + (26 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Poors x 2) + (4 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 160 Ratings = 4.581

  • 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 Ashurst Park Care Home is based on 13 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 53 registered maximum number of service users is 10.6, which has been reached with 13 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.
