The caring team were great, always there to make sure I had everything I needed. My room was lovely. The food was good and I enjoyed meeting the therapy dogs. I enjoyed the entertainment and activities. Elworth Grange is a happy homely place. Thank you for your care and support during my respite stay.

I only have praise for Elworth Grange and its staff. My mum moved from another local care home and from day 1 she has been made welcome by all. The decor, facilities care etc have been wonderful and my mum has been included in all activities. The team have fully included me and kept me informed they
are like family. Thanks for all you do to help me keep my mum safe and happy.

I have no doubt that there could be no better place for my father. The building, suites and facilities are well thought out and purpose-built recently from scratch. The staff in all respects are caring and supportive and open to requests to provide specific care needs. They treated my father with dignity
and friendliness, and he had a special rapport with some which was heartwarming. They also made the family very welcome and extended care to us as well as to my father. There has been a great effort to provide stimulating and inclusive activities for residents.

Reply from Charlotte Jackson, Customer Care Administrator at Elworth Grange

Thank you for taking the time to send such a lovely review, we are so pleased that our facilities and team provide the perfect setting for your father’s care, and as his family you are always welcome to visit.

My father-in-law was a resident at Elworth Grange for 16 months. During this time his family were frequent visitors. We were delighted he came to regard Elworth as his home and the staff like a second family for him. The staff provide an exceptional level of care. On a personal level he was treated
with dignity and respect and very much as an individual as were all residents. Most importantly, the staff genuinely care about their resident's health and well-being. He was loved and cared for as if he were a member of an extended family.
Staff were quick to raise any concerns with the family and to discuss how his situation could be improved. When hospital visits were necessary we were always impressed with how quickly the paramedics arrived from the nearby hospital. Staff work very hard to keep residents mobile for as long as possible. Hospital stays result in loss of mobility. My father-in-law became mobile again in an astonishingly short time after surgery or long hospital stays. Thanks to all the staff for their dedication, skill and perseverance, his transformation was amazing to watch.
The family were all relieved that when palliative care was required he was able to avoid hospital and stay at Elworth. His last days at Elworth were as comfortable as possible with the district nurses on call and able to attend 24/7 if needed. Elworth is committed to caring for all its resident's relatives and we all experienced exceptional care, compassion love and practical advice from staff at all levels. During the last week of my father-in-law's life, his 4 children were able to be with him 24/7 in his room. (Not all at once, we took it in shifts). The staff fed us and comforted us which was remarkable! We all heartily recommend Elworth Grange Care Home to you, the staff are second to none, the facilities are excellent and the food is great too!

Reply from Terri Kidd, PR Executive at Elworth Grange

Thank you so much for your lovely review. We are very sorry for your loss, your father-in-law was a wonderful man and is very sadly missed within the home, he could usually be found watching his old comedies and we will think of him every time we hear the theme tunes. We were honoured to be there for him, not only to care for him but to support you, his wonderful family. We hope that you will return in future for a cup of tea and a reminisce, it would be lovely to share some memories.

I just wanted to thank all the staff at Elworth Grange for a really fantastic 100th birthday party for Mum. They pulled out all the stops and got local schools, charities and businesses involved, she got over 140 cards thanks to the staff putting the word round and a card from the King! No less. The
day went great with all the residents joining in with the celebrations, cake, food, drink and entertainment were provided as well as a trip out in a posh car offered by a local dealership. So once again all my family thank Elworth for an unforgettable day.

For the two years I've been visiting, Elworth Grange has always been a caring place and I think it got even better following the appointment of the newish manager. I feel my mum is always treated as an individual and with respect and her relationship with the staff adds interest and enjoyment to her
life. I like the fact that they keep looking for different activities to offer.

Needed somewhere for my uncle the same day for respite care as house flooded. The management team were wonderful and went out of the way to help. He loves his new temporary home, he has made lots of friends and doesn't want to come home. The staff are so caring and very attentive. The food is amazing
quality and my uncle has put on weight. Thank you for caring for him so well, I can't recommend Elsworth Grange highly enough.

Reply from Terri Kidd, PR Executive at Elworth Grange

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. We are proud are able to move so quickly to support new residents and get your uncle somewhere he could be safe, happy and cared for.

Mum’s admission to Elworth had a few paperwork hiccups, but the transformation in her well-being makes it all worthwhile. Her dementia had left her lonely and anxious and the supportive care team have shed years off Mum by making her feel safe and cared for. The facility is spotless, purpose-built and
welcoming. We could not be more grateful for finding such a good place for Mum to be looked after.

father got an infection which resulted in hospital admission, when ready for discharge he required respite care due to dementia and delirium. I happened to have a family holiday booked a week later. The team at Elwroth were utstanding in their help and assistance and left me with no doubt this care
home would more than meet my father's needs.

From my arrival I consider this to be a haven. A very beautiful home, the furnishing extremely attractive, staff work extremely hard to care for residents. Sometimes like most homes with shortages of staff, having to train agency staff. The chef has a flair for cooking and a passion for attempting to
please us all. A lady chef and assistant are also talented. A real homely feel, and 24-hour care.

This is such a lovely review and ‘Haven’ is the perfect word, it’s what we always aim to be. We are so glad that the home (and the food) leaves such a great impression.

My dad has vascular dementia. Prior to moving to Elworth Grange dad had been in another care home for assessment for a period of 8 weeks. During his time at the other home, he started to have 'issues' with eating by himself and it concerned me greatly. I looked at a number of care homes for dad to call
his 'forever home' and Elworth Grange stood head and shoulders above any of the others, even those more expensive. As soon as you enter the building you get a good feeling. It's like a 5* hotel, luxurious, light, spacious, bright and spotlessly clean but homely, comfortable and welcoming. I was dreading 'the move' as dad had taken weeks to settle in the first home, hence the 8-week stay for assessment. Dad has only been at Elworth Grange for a short time but he has settled in brilliantly and his eating and appetite have improved which is a testament to the staff and the Elworth Grange approach to care. Kindness, patience, encouragement and dignity. A wonderful place to call home.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this review for the team at Elworth Grange. We're very proud of our beautiful home, which is purpose-built with our residents in mind - we're glad you feel that the home is luxurious and welcoming. It makes us so happy to hear that your dad can now call Elworth Grange his forever home, and we're so pleased that his appetite has improved, thanks to the incredible person-centred care our teams are dedicated to providing. Please don't hesitate to let the team know if there is anything else we can do. Thanks again!

My dad has been at Elworth Grange for the last four weeks as an interim, before returning home from the hospital. The staff and facilities are completely wonderful and have provided an outstanding level of personable care and diligence with him catering to all of his mobility needs and being very patient
with him. His return home is tinged with sadness, as he was telling me how much he has enjoyed his time, the care, good food and socializing. The bedroom facilities are modern, spacious and well equipped, and my dad has loved the dining room and marvels at how much he feels like he is in a posh hotel. From a relative perspective, I was totally reassured at all times that my dad was receiving the best care at Elworth Grange - it is a fantastic place.

My mother-in-law has just completed four weeks initial respite care and has decided to become a permanent resident. The difference in her over these last four weeks is wonderful to see. She has regained her appetite and is enjoying her food again. She was never one to sit still, so has been taking advantage
of the varied activities on offer, from armchair exercises to cooking and flower arranging. She is fond of music and has been very complimentary of the regular entertainers who visit the home. Mum is always saying how easy to get on with and helpful all the staff are, which we have also found in our dealings with them. All these things have helped to increase her confidence and bring her back to her old self. As her family, we are reassured that she is being well looked after, and they always have her best interests at heart.

Reply from Rebecca Selkirk, PR Executive at Elworth Grange

Thank you so much for your review. We are so pleased to hear that your mother in law's move has been a positive experience for you all.

Thank you again for the kind words which I shall be sure to pass on.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.797)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.797) out of 10 for Elworth Grange 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 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 14 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 4.797 for Elworth Grange is calculated as follows: ( (152 Excellents x 5) + (14 Goods x 4) + (11 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 177 Ratings = 4.797

  • 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 Elworth Grange is based on 14 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 66 registered maximum number of service users is 13.2, which has been reached with 14 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.
