My father-in-law has been a resident at Rothsay Grange for a few year's but unfortunately passed away recently.
I would like to thank the staff at Rothsay Grange for their support during the years, especially during the last few months of Dad's life. A special thanks go to management and her team
of nurses and carers who are dedicated to their job.
They were always available to talk to nothing was ever a problem.

Reply from Sherlyn Rowland, General Manager at Barchester Rothsay Grange Care Home

Thank you for your review and kind words. Your father-in-law was a pleasure to care for and will be greatly missed at Rothsay Grange.

The girls looking after Mum-in-law are wonderful. They have a difficult job to do with lots of people to watch and look after. The management side is not so great. We've been asking for the main light in her room to be fixed every visit for the last 3-4 weeks, still not done. Don't expect to keep any
of the clothes that are brought in for her as Mum-in-law rarely has anything on that we brought in for her. Apart from that, the food is very good, she is showered and cleaned regularly and she seems to be relatively happy and that's what you want from a dementia care home.

The accommodation rooms, lounges and corridors are very good. The staff, food and care of residents are all very good. The laundry was not so good but has improved a lot over the past few months. My only concern and it's really about the home is the cost of care. The cost exceeds our income and our
savings will soon be gone. Monthly income is £2,500 care costs £7,000+. The government needs to provide more financial help to those residents on end-of-life care.

Reply from Sherlyn Rowland, General Manager at Barchester Rothsay Grange Care Home

Thank you for your kind words about our home. We enjoy caring for your loved one and your visits. We understand your concerns about the costs of care and we continue to commit to developing our staff and investing in improving our environment.

Our good friend has been at Rothsay for love a year now and since her living there we have always found the care and service she receives above and beyond what she would have had from a local facility. Even though she has dementia she enjoys the activities that are available and has settled in well.
Friends
can now come and go when they like and the staff are always available to chat if you have any concerns, either face to face or over the phone.

Reply from Sherlyn Rowland, General Manager at Barchester Rothsay Grange Care Home

Thank you for your kind review. The health and well-being of our residents are the main focus of our service, and friends and families are our extended families. We do enjoy having visitors and love to see the smiles on our resident's faces.

My mother lived at Rothsay Grange for the last five years of her sweet life. In all that time, she was genuinely looked after well and cared for. The Care staff made friends with her and us, bothering to find out about her life and loves so that they could chat to her about things that were familiar
to her. There hasn’t been a single incident over the last five years that have made any of the family question the care, nursing or any other arrangements, even at the height of the pandemic restrictions. There have been some great moments - arriving for a visit to find an alpaca in the lounge room was definitely one, and enjoying live music whilst Mum shouted for quiet will stay with me for years! The administrative staff have been a point of contact, information points, helpful and supportive in all aspects of managing Mum’s place and are very knowledgeable regarding the care system, payments and etc. We have no regrets about placing Mum in the care of Rothsay Grange.

Reply from Sherlyn Rowland, General Manager at Barchester Rothsay Grange Care Home

Thank you so so much for such a kind review. We loved caring for your mother during her later years, and we certainly will miss her and all of the family. Many thanks.

My first experience of being a patient for respite in a care home. Rothsay Grange has superseded all that I had desired. I have spent eleven days here with the most uplifting staff. Very impressed with the continuity of cleanliness throughout each day. Owing to leg ulcers I've experienced a number of
nurses during the past sixteen years, however, none has compared to the one treating me here, she has been exceptionally gentle. A variety of excellently cooked food. I shall leave here well and truly satisfied with the love and care shown to me and will not hesitate in coming back for further stays in the future. Money well spent!

Rothsay Grange gave the impression of being an extremely well-run home. The staff were polite, caring and attentive. My friend looked well cared for and comfortable. Her hair looked tidy, and her fingernails were maintained. Her bed looked pristine. There was no smell of urine in the home.

Dad became a resident at Rothsay Grange at the end of December for respite initially but is now staying on. All the staff have been so kind and friendly. The way they have all taken the time to get to know Dad to help him settle in has been wonderful. He thinks the nurses are all lovely. The staff nurse
in charge each day has worked closely with both Dad and me to ensure his transition and care was right and Dads needs were met completely. They liaise with me when any changes are made to his medication, treatment etc.
Rothsay is clean, bright, very friendly and has a lovely homely feel.
Highly recommend.

Reply from Emily Kington, Admin Assistant at Barchester Rothsay Grange Care Home

Thank you so much for your kind review. We love having your Dad here and getting to know both him and you has been a pleasure. We are glad that you're pleased with everything here and that you feel happy to have chosen our home for Dad to move to.

Due to Covid I have not actually been inside the property but visiting the 'pod room' has been helpful. Staff are very supportive.

Reply from Emily Kington, Admin Assistant at Barchester Rothsay Grange Care Home

Thank you for your review. We understand that it is difficult to leave reviews when you haven't been able to visit your dad's room directly, but we're glad the pod is working well and that you are able to have meaningful visits with him.

I have been so pleased by the care both my dad and my late mum received here. Despite lockdown, and losing our mum during this time, we still felt completely reassured that Dad was in the right place. The staff are all lovely and very helpful.

Reply from Jessica Salway, General Manager at Barchester Rothsay Grange Care Home

Thank you for your support it is greatly received. We are so happy that you are glad Dad remains with us and that despite lockdown feel Dad is in the right place. All the staff really think highly of your Dad and were saddened deeply when Mum passed away. We hope that once the country is free of COVID that we can welcome you back into the home once again.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.774)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.774) out of 10 for Barchester Rothsay Grange 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 25 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 25 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 4.774 for Barchester Rothsay Grange Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (225 Excellents x 5) + (60 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 287 Ratings = 4.774

  • 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 Rothsay Grange Care Home is based on 25 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 25 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.
