Resident admitted at short notice. No pre-admission assessment. Diagnosis of quadriplegia not noticed. Patient hoisted on straps. Staff generally friendly and helpful but much misunderstanding and misinformation.
Two hourly turns from spinal unit request changed by management to four hourly - and
longer. Resident now has large bed sore on lower spine, now being dressed 3 times daily. High-dose antibiotics causing mouth ulcers. Is on morphine patches.
Two hourly turns now being administered but physio to prevent spasticity not recommended.
Resident now very frail, almost back in foetal position, under palliative care, very depressed. Refusing food and drink. Deteriorating rapidly.

My wife has been a resident at Abbey Grange since August 2023. The carers are fantastic, kind, caring and professional.
The nursing staff were also brilliant, I can't praise them enough.
The domestics also come for a lot of praise, hard-working, pleasant and very helpful.
Finally, I find the management
to be friendly, kind and very supportive. They have made a difficult time a little more bearable.

My husband was admitted to Abbey Grange from the hospital after a fall for a 6/8 week assessment. I was in a very fragile state of mind as we had been married 60 years and the thought of us being separated was unthinkable. However, thanks to the support of the wonderful management and staff I am coming
to terms with the situation. He has settled very well and loves the staff. I can visit whenever I want to and everyone is so friendly and accommodating. I would definitely recommend Abbey Grange to anyone faced with the hard decision to put their loved one into care.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

Myself and my family were apprehensive when my husband left hospital in September. He was not well enough to return home to us and was directed to Abbey Grange. We were loaded with guilt and anxiety about this. We were completely wrong. During his time on Mappin Wing we found the staff warm-hearted,
considerate and so caring. We visited often and almost regarded them all as family. When he died they continued to care for us. Cups of tea and sandwiches appeared by magic, and hugs galore. The caring staff were ace and the medical staff were respectful and totally professional. Nothing was too much trouble even if it seemed silly.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

After being invited to a cheese and wine afternoon at the care home, all the staff went above and beyond to make us all feel very welcome. I, myself, met some other residents' families that are in the same situation as us, and all made it a little bit easier with what we are all going through. Putting
our loved ones into a care home was the best thing for them and us, and all the staff are always so friendly and on hand if we need to chat. Keep up the great work.

No option for no stars.
If you want your loved ones to be safe, clean and looked after, please avoid this care home. if you question your loved one's progress expect everyone to say what you want them to say, and not the truth. Loved ones are left to fend for themselves. If you want unwitnessed fall
added to the list, this is the place. Food is not encouraged before it's taken away. Drinks are limited, as in the heatwave no drinks were available for 3 days! The very professional response from the manager was 'they have tea or milk'. Never in a million years would I ever make the same mistake in placing my mum in this incompetent care home, Abbey Grange Nursing Home.
This is a review I will stand by. The one thing I forgot to say was, don't listen to reviews as most of them were asked to be put on by management and staff members! Who are all related and friends of Abbey Grange Nursing Home.

Really welcoming care home, from day one of my mother-in-law moving in the staff and manager have been amazing.
All staff are caring towards residents and also their families.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.290)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.290) out of 10 for Abbey Grange Care & Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.3 out of 5 from 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 4.290 for Abbey Grange Care & Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (131 Excellents x 5) + (49 Goods x 4) + (13 Satisfactorys x 3) + (7 Poors x 2) + (14 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 214 Ratings = 4.29

  • 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 Abbey Grange Care & Nursing Home is based on 16 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 74 registered maximum number of service users is 14.8, which has been reached with 16 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.
