Mum spent the last 18 months of her life at Longueville Court. She was treated so well, just as if she was everyone's grandma. The staff is amazing. The rooms were much larger and nicer than anywhere else I have seen. Nothing is too much trouble here. Sadly we couldn't be with Mum in her final weeks
but we are comforted to know in her final moments they never left her and held her hand until the end. We are eternally grateful.

I viewed another home a few months ago but unfortunately have been unable to Longueville Court since Mum has been there due to COVID-19. I cannot, therefore, complete some of the boxes below. Mum resides on Memory Lane, having moved from the NHS system in April. It is extremely hard not to be able to
visit her (for reasons that we fully understand and support). However, the staff has been immensely helpful in enabling me to communicate with Mum by telephone on a regular basis. The staff has kept me fully informed of Mum's health and day to day condition.

My Mum was a resident at Longueville Court for 8 years, she died on 24/04/20, not from the Covid 19 virus, but other causes. I want to praise the staff, Carers and Nurses for looking after my Mum so well. From the moment she arrived, she was treated as though it was her own home and she became one of
their family. She suffered with Alzheimer's, and at times as the illness progressed she became very difficult and sometimes unpleasant to care for, but the staff always treated her so kindly and had patience beyond belief. In the last 2 years or so she became confined to her bed and got more frail and the Skylark team really loved her and found ways of handling her so she didn't get distressed, it was lovely to see. I had complete confidence that my Mum was being kept clean, cosy and calm, fed well etc. They would play her cd's, dress her in her favourite clothes, spray her with her perfume, cuddle and calm her when she cried. Additionally, they supported me, becoming like friends.

My mother, aged 91, first stayed in Longueville Court for respite care after a fall at home in which she broke her wrist. The staff at the home treated her with respect and kindness, even though she made it clear she didn't want to be in a care home! Her second stay was a short one, only two weeks before
she died. Again, she was treated with dignity and kindness. The staff, especially on Kingfisher, are very compassionate and patient.

Mum was admitted with terminal pancreatic cancer, needing palliative nursing care. We were all fully supported in every way, even emotionally. We were treated like family and everything was done to help us. All the staff were warm, caring and very professional. They treated Mum with respect and dignity.
Unfortunately Mum has passed, but we thank everyone for making her last few weeks happy and comfortable and for helping us to cope with everything. Thank you.

I cannot stress how happy we are with the care and support Mum is being given. All of the staff are 100% committed to their roles and feel Mum could not be in safer hands. The nurses are all very professional and are always available to discuss matters with. All of the carers have great positive attitudes
and make Mum feel dignified and safe. The activities staff are fantastic and supportive.

My mother was in Longueville Court for the last 8 months of her life. In all that time, the care and support she had from all the team was outstanding.
As mum grew frailer and less able, she was treated with dignity every step of the way, by a friendly, warm and caring staff. Their help and care also
extended to the rest of the family, which was much appreciated at such a difficult time.

My mother has been a resident for some 14 years and our whole family continue to be impressed by the high standard of care from all the staff on "memory lane" and it's important to acknowledge the contribution from the kitchen and cleaning staff. The management and reception staff are quick to welcome
all and I would have no hesitation in recommending Barchester Longueville Court Care Home.

Mum stayed on Longueville Court Care Home for nearly three years and came to regard it as her home and the staff as her friends.
The care she received especially in the last two weeks of her life was exemplary. She was treated with great compassion and sympathy along with her family for which we will
always be grateful. The one improvement that could be made is that her room looked tired and was in need of a total refurbishment both decor and furnishings.

Reply from Margery Dino, Acting General Manager at Barchester Longueville Court Care Home

Thank you for your kind words. Your feedback means a lot to us. We are looking forward to the end result of our current refurbishments across the home which will include updating the bedrooms in the very near future.

My brother-in-law has been in Memory Lane for several years. The care has been remarkable. His needs have been addressed at every stage of his illness. The staff have been caring towards him and he has always been treated with dignity. Four of the staff have been there from the time that he was admitted
and that must have a great deal to do with the management. Well done to the staff.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.845)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.845) out of 10 for Barchester Longueville Court Care Home 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 31 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 30 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 4.845 for Barchester Longueville Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (305 Excellents x 5) + (43 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 354 Ratings = 4.845

  • 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 Longueville Court Care Home is based on 30 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 109 registered maximum number of service users is 21.8, which has been reached with 30 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.
