Mother had increased need for support following a number of falls in April. This resulted in a broken finger and a bruised ribcage. The staff were very attentive to the resulting care needs and mother says "the staff are lovely". She enjoys some of the weekly activities and she very much enjoys animal
visits.

My uncle (95) has been a resident at Middletown Grange for almost six years. I have been pleased with the care he has received. He seems content and well looked after. The tea and coffee making space in the entrance hall is a great idea.

My wife has been in Barchester Middletown Grange Care Home for about 8/9 months and is very happy in almost all respects. Was initially on the top floor (where she had a midnight visitor) now on the ground floor, a bit small but getting used to it.

The care home is a nice place, but I'm concerned about my father's clothes/footwear. He has lost slippers, shoes, dressing gowns and all his clothes. He has acquired another patients' clothes/shoes. This really needs sorting out.

Reply from Sharon Herbert, General Manager at Barchester Middletown Grange Care Home

Thank you for taking the time to review the home. My housekeeping staff try very hard to ensure all our residents clothes are returned safely to them after laundering. We also advise all our families to ensure clothes are clearly labelled. When you are next in the home do let us know and we will help you to find your father’s items or replace them appropriately. We hope you are happy with all other aspects of his care and note you are likely to recommend us which is lovely but do not hesitate to see me at any time when you visit your father.
Thank you

I was extremely impressed with Middletown Grange. The atmosphere was lovely and the residents obviously well cared for.
The staff that I met were warm and welcoming.
Most of all, the home was spotlessly clean - something which is often lacking.

My father has been in Middletown Grange care home for more than 6 months now; he suffers from dementia and I have been pleased by the patient and caring manner in which the staff treat him. His behaviour can be challenging, yet they are careful to treat him with dignity and respect. His care plan is
regularly updated and actions taken seem to be appropriate to his needs, both physical and mental. On a couple of occasions, I have needed to talk with the manager or deputy manager over a couple of concerns, and they have immediately taken steps to deal with the issues I have raised. In spite of the demands of the work, the staff are always polite, friendly and ready with a smile.

I have only been visiting Middletown Grange since October 2017 when my mother became a permanent resident.
Every visit has been relaxing and the staff very helpful and friendly.
I would recommend this home to other people looking for a place for a member of their family if needed.
The building and
gardens are well kept.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.879)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.879) out of 10 for Barchester Middletown Grange 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 29 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 29 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 4.879 for Barchester Middletown Grange Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (302 Excellents x 5) + (33 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 339 Ratings = 4.879

  • 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 Barchester Middletown Grange Care Home is based on 29 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 56 registered maximum number of service users is 11.2, which has been reached with 29 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.
