Overall Experience  Overall Experience 2.0 out of 5

Overall I was very disappointed with my partner's care. In most respects there were shortfalls. I believe this is a lot to do with the general standards in the nation's care. The overriding factor being costs and staffing. Having a posh building is not the main issue when caring for a very frightened
and sick person. More really caring staff and thoughtfulness would have made a great difference. The external back up was below par as well.

Reply from Stuart McLaughlan, Financial Director at Holdingham Grange Care & Nursing Home

This gentleman complained to head office about the home, which was thoroughly investigated and unfounded. He was able to stay with his partner 24 hours a day and was provided with food and emotional support throughout. His partner was very satisfied with the care and support provided to her - frequently telling staff without prompting.

I had a brother in the above home who passed away 29th May 2019. My other brother was very poorly after a heart operation. So I wanted him to have the same care. Unfortunately, he passed away on the 23rd of November 2019. I can rest knowing I gave them the best care they could have.

Mum and Dad have both been residents here now for approximately 4 months. Mum came from another care home, and since arriving here, there has been a massive improvement in her health and general well-being. Both parents, are being well cared for by caring, cheerful and knowledgeable staff. The surroundings
are first class, and as a family, we are all happy and reassured by the way the home is run by all the staff we have encountered. Nothing is too much trouble.

The home is beautifully clean, smells fantastic and has a good range of equipment and activities to keep the residents involved. The staff are the shining lights of this organisation, they care with empathy, sympathy, and genuine Mohan. My mother felt looked after during her whole stay. We as a family
took confidence from the staff approach and felt in our absence our mum was comfortable physically, but also, supported emotionally. Activities team were engaging inclusive and enthusiastic and really got to know what each resident enjoyed.

I came to Glenholme needing a period of respite and recovery following an unexpected limb amputation. I found the staff to be approachable, kind, caring and efficient in difficult circumstances for me. At all times, I was treated with dignity and respect. The facilities are remarkable. Of particular
importance to me were the garden and the excellent Wi-Fi connection. I would have no hesitation in recommending Glenholme to a near relative of mine.

What a fantastic place. My Dad has now been here for four months. I really didn’t think we would ever find a home like this. The facilities are second to none and the staff? They are like a family. Nothing is ever too much trouble and they are in frequent contact with me with updates on my dad's health.
The manager is extremely approachable and I’ve seen her filling in when staff have been off.
I would not hesitate to recommend this nursing home.

My mother was a resident for 2 weeks as an interim measure after being discharged from hospital have suffered a stroke. The level of care and support she has received at Glenholme has been second to none. Everyone is so helpful and kind. The facilities are fantastic.
All care homes should look at Glenholme
Holdingham Grange as a benchmark. Thank you for what you have done for my mum.

My dad has only been in the care home for 3 weeks, but his Parkinson's took a severe turn for the worse and he is now on end of life care. I have experienced many care homes with daycare and repsite for my dad but Holdingham Grange is by far the best. The staff are all so caring, kind and understanding,
nothing is too much trouble, they truly care about the residents and I cannot thank them enough. Once you walk into the home, you know immediately this is the place your loves one should be. Thank you to all.

When I first walked into this care home, it has the wow factor in more ways than one. It has the feel of a hotel, home from home feel with lovely surrounding and décor with home from home food. Also, the staff are so so kind and caring, this is a home which I would be more than happy to be in if I needed
to be in the future. I feel too that there need to be more homes like this to be built in the future; for people who need them.

My mother came to Glenholme after a long period in hospital. It's always hard for someone to not be able to return to their own home, however, within a very short time, we could see a difference. She was settled and very happy, the staff are kind, very efficient and caring. The facilities and catering
are second to none. I would highly recommend.
A big thank you to the manager and all her staff.

I bless the day that I found Holdingham Grange, my mother has been a resident now for a few weeks and the care she receives is excellent, she is treated with dignity and respect at all times, her room is large, comfortable and clean, the lounges are beautifully decorated as is the whole building and
Mum says the food is excellent. All the staff and managers are friendly, caring and helpful, nothing is too much trouble. The entertainment is varied and top quality and is appreciated by all.
My husband, who has dementia, also attends Holdingham Grange for Day Care one day each week, he really enjoys his daycare which provides stimulation for my husband as well as good company and I know that he is safe and well looked after.
This place is above five star!

He is extremely happy more responsive, remembers my mother which has been wonderful as before when he was living at home he never recognised her. He is managing to wash and change

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.997)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.997) out of 10 for Holdingham Grange Care & Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 32 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 32 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 4.997 for Holdingham Grange Care & Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (380 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 381 Ratings = 4.997

  • 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 Holdingham Grange Care & Nursing Home is based on 32 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 64 registered maximum number of service users is 12.8, which has been reached with 32 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.
