Visit Mum regularly. Always feel welcome. Follow the home on social media and know that Mum has plenty of activities she can take part in. At the moment, we are at the Wednesday morning coffee morning. This is a very good social event for the residents. It gave me peace of mind knowing my mum was being
looked after while I was on holiday recently and someone contacted me while away to let me know she was ok.

My wife and I have been to visit Mum today my sister was part of the band that was entertaining the residents, friends and family members. What a lovely afternoon. The staff all dressed up full of laughter and fun even when it rained. MY wife and I call at least once a fortnight as I work in London.
and every time I feel happy Mum is here the care and support is excellent. I can only say thank you for looking after her.

Reply from Terri Kidd, PR Executive at Ashworth Grange

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review (and thank you to your sister for the wonderful entertainment!). We work hard to ensure our residents are safe and well cared for, but we do like to play hard too, and it’s a joy to be in the home! You are always welcome to join us when you are able – we will get the kettle on – and in the meantime, it’s great that you can feel reassured that your mum is in safe hands.

My husband is here because he has dementia and I am unable to look after him due to illness. Although I would prefer (100%) to have him home, he has been looked after at Ashworth Grange Care Home better than I hoped for. The staff are so caring and considerate and understand his needs so well. Thank
you all so much.

Reply from Terri Kidd, PR Executive at Ashworth Grange

Whilst we are very sorry that you are unwell, we are pleased that we can help both you and your husband by giving him all the care he needs so you can concentrate on your own health and spend quality time with him when you visit. Thank you for the lovely review.

My mother has been at Ashworth Grange Care Home for over eighteen months.
Prior to entering the home, she was nervous and not taking care of herself but she is now perfectly settled and feels safe and secure. She is also eating more regularly.
All the staff are great but special shout-out to one
member of staff - Mum's eyes light up when she's around.

Reply from Terri Kidd, PR Executive at Ashworth Grange

Thank you for your lovely review, it’s great to hear that your mum is settled and thriving. We will do our best to make sure the staff member knows how appreciated she is – we certainly appreciate all our team; they are the best!

Ashworth Grange is a well-run care home. The staff are very helpful and supportive when times are not easy for family or the resident. As a resident, you are welcomed and made to feel comfortable and when we leave from visiting, we feel happy and comfortable leaving my father in their care - this to

My dad spent almost two years at Ashworth Grange before he passed away this month. As a family, we can’t put into words the thanks we have for the staff. An end-of-life care plan was put in place in consultation with the family. We visited and stayed with Dad all day and some nights. His care was outstanding.
We were offered all meals whilst with him and given wonderful emotional support as well.
Dad had wonderful care during his time at Ashworth Grange. The staff are compassionate and caring. It’s not just a care home; it’s a loving, warm family.
Thank you.

Reply from Terri Kidd, PR Executive at Ashworth Grange

Firstly, we are so sorry for your loss; your dad was a well-loved resident and is sadly missed. Thank you for allowing us to support him and you; the relationships made in the home are truly special, and it’s a privilege to be able to be there for families. We will remember your dad fondly, and please don’t be a stranger; you are part of the Ashworth Grange family too, and you are always welcome.

I was in Ashworth Grange for two weeks in May and found the home clean and airy with most members of staff pleasant and obliging. The cook tried to purchase requested items of food for individual residents and the hairdresser worked very hard during her two-morning visits. However, there were boring
mornings with no activities and the film each week was a DVD of archaic choice. The food only satisfactory had very little fish or roast meat on the menu and practically no fresh fruit was provided.

Reply from Terri Kidd, PR Executive at Ashworth Grange

Thank you for taking the time to leave us feedback, we value all feedback. We absolutely take on board any comments about our menus and are pleased to confirm that we have a newly appointed kitchen manager and after liaising with residents, has created new menus including both fish and roast meat. As you say, if a resident makes a request, we will aim to oblige and as such the films shown in our cinema room for Saturday matinee are chosen by the residents themselves. Thank you again for your review, we are very pleased that overall, your experience was positive.

My dad has been visiting Ashworth Grange for the last couple of years for respite care to give Mum a rest every few months. The staff here are exceptional and really do care. They are welcoming, helpful and go above and beyond for both their residents guests and family visiting. As a family, it really

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.
