The staff helped us to organise a party for my father-in-law's 90th birthday, which we held in the café. They decorated the room with balloons and provided us with food, drinks and a birthday cake. As ever, nothing seemed too much trouble for them.
All the staff involved helped to make the day a very
special one. They were so kind and genuine in sharing their good wishes with him too.

Reply from Terri Kidd, PR Executive at Ashworth Grange

Thank you for leaving such a lovely review. Many happy returns to your father-in-law! It sounds like he had a wonderful time, and we are not at all surprised – there’s nothing quite like an Ashworth Grange party!

My dad turned 90 yesterday. We had a great family party in the cafe to celebrate. It was the perfect afternoon.
Dad has been at Ashworth for several months.
The care and support he has had from all members of staff has been exceptional in that time.
He was previously placed in an emergency care
home, which was very basic and lacking in amenities and staff.

Reply from Terri Kidd, PR Executive at Ashworth Grange

Many happy returns to your dad! We hope he had a great day and that you could all celebrate in style. We are pleased that your dad is now settled at Ashworth Grange.

I moved my mum to Ashworth Grange on a recommendation from a friend as I was unhappy with her care in another home.
The atmosphere is wonderful, it is decorated and furnished well, and it is very homely.
The staff are friendly, kind, respectful and tolerant. The management is the same and also efficient
and modern in outlook.
I can now sleep at night!

I cannot thank them enough.

Ashworth Grange is a very good care home. One marker of their standards of care is how they handle issues which arise from time to time. All establishments, not just care homes, have issues from time to time which need to be addressed. When I have needed to point out any aspect of my mother’s care which
needed addressing, the care home staff and management were efficient and helpful in resolving them. So I would reiterate that care at Ashworth Grange is very good. I would not hesitate to recommend the home to others.

Very impressed with the focus on care for the residents. A well-presented, clean and warm environment.
The staff are friendly and use residents' names.
Lots of activities to keep residents busy, including trips out.
This home looks to be extremely well-run.
The only area of improvement would
be that some of the public area woodwork paint needs refreshing.

I find the home very welcoming. The staff are very friendly and work very hard, taking care of the residents with a lot of love and cuddles. My dad is a different person since he went to Ashworth Grange Care Home, the management has helped him have a purpose in life with the help of the staff too. Entertainment
and food are great! It's lovely we can go to coffee mornings, enjoying a social morning with our relatives and have a bun and milky coffee which I might add is delicious.

Reply from Terri Kidd, PR Executive at Ashworth Grange

Thank you so much for your kind words. It’s amazing the difference it makes to be in a place that offers not only care but also stimulation and company. We are so pleased you have seen such a positive change in your dad and long may it continue!

I think it is absolutely beautiful and more like a hotel than a home. All the staff are caring, helpful and kind, can't do enough for you. The home is very clean, plenty of entertainment. I would recommend anybody to come to this home. All the management staff are caring, helpful and understanding,
any problems are sorted straight away. I find there is nothing too much trouble for them.

I enjoyed my visit to see my mother-in-law who has dementia. All the staff were extremely helpful and pleasant. The home is immaculate and she has a lovely room. She enjoys the food. Her hair had been washed and set nicely. I was impressed by the general layout and organisation of the home, also the
calm atmosphere.
Every time I telephone my mum-in-law for a chat the staff are always pleasant and happily put me through to her. They are polite and helpful.

Reply from Terri Kidd, PR Executive at Ashworth Grange

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a lovely review. We ensure that our residents are not only well looked after but are given everything they need to thrive, whether that’s the opportunity for a regular hair appointment (as part of our inclusive fee), events and activities in the home, or a peaceful calm environment. We also know how important it is that residents keep in touch with their loved ones, so do feel free to call or pop in at any time.

The care my mother-in-law received from all members of staff during her 4 years of living at Ashworth Grange was second to none, they were kind, caring support nothing was any trouble, we can never thank them enough for all they did for her she enjoyed her time there and all activities they did plus
the entertainment. During her final weeks she was treated with love, care, kindness, respect and dignity as a family we could not of asked for more. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.756)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.756) out of 10 for Ashworth 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 93 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 93 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 4.756 for Ashworth Grange is calculated as follows: ( (841 Excellents x 5) + (211 Goods x 4) + (26 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 1078 Ratings = 4.756

  • 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 Ashworth Grange is based on 93 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 93 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.
