I always felt Mum was cared for. The staff took trouble choosing clothes for her. I have been in other establishments where this was not the case! The rooms were always bright, clean, and cheerful. Having the cafe and the garden to take her into was a godsend. Some of our best moments were spent in
the garden. Sadly we lost Mum recently but throughout her last days, the staff were so supportive. We are so grateful.

Reply from Terri Kidd, PR Executive at Ashworth Grange

Thank you for taking the time to review our home at what must be a difficult time for you and your family. We are so sorry for your loss, but it’s lovely to hear that your mum’s time at Ashworth Grange was positive and that you were able to make happy memories together. Please remember you will always be welcome to come back, sit in the garden and have a cup of tea and reminisce with us.

Excellent care and attention to detail. My mum says she can find no fault, she has settled. The staff are so friendly, mum keeps saying/asking 'Have I known them all my life!'

Mum came into this home in mid-November 2022. I brought her a footstool from home for her legs to be elevated. (The home could not provide one.) On 22 Dec (after 2 visits from GP regarding chest infection and possible cellulitis and the GP remarking about oedema in her legs) I walked in to find Mum's
legs elevated for the first time! The home looks modern, is well furnished and the carers try their best. They are well-fed but there appears to be no help with feeding. Overall quite good but room for improvement.

The staff are very pleasant. My auntie seems very settled and on the whole, very happy. The home is spotless and very tidy. The meals are very varied and always look lovely (auntie especially likes the puddings!) The reception area is always so welcoming and the lady on the front desk is lovely and
friendly. Overall, we are very happy with the care auntie gets and the home in general. Having had experienced this before, this home is exceptional!

Reply from Charlotte Jackson, Customer Care Administrator at Ashworth Grange

Thank you for your feedback, it's lovely that your Auntie has been made to feel so welcome and cared for. Also pleased to hear that the puddings hit the spot, they are our favourite too! We are very proud of our home and your lovely words are well-deserved but much appreciated.

Whilst we have enjoyed our stay there are small things that could be done to improve the service. Less noise in the serving area would be better for dementia residents. (More staff as sometimes they are so rushed they cannot help residents.) The brochure says bar but not true. Repair call buttons more
quickly. Meds not given on time. Laundry turnaround could be quicker. Activities - help residents to get to these. We had no hairdresser over the two weeks. Only went to 2 activities, the cinema and keep fit. Both were excellent. The sides on bed could be better.

I can't comment on all the ratings, however, the Ashworth Grange staff have been respectful and efficient on each occasion of my visits. The room is comfortable but could do with an additional chair to accommodate a visitor. I'm not sure whether there is a remote controller for the TV as it wasn't evident
and my sister didn't know where it was kept. Altogether a positive experience so well done to the staff at Ashworth Grange.

My wife became a resident at Ashworth Grange in July 2021. Because of the covid pandemic, we have only had experience of lockdown situations until April 2022. Allowing for the stringent regime the staff and organisation have been second to none. Everything was centred on keeping the visitor and resident
safe in the most cheerful way possible. Once normality returned the Grange became a haven of friendliness, cleanliness, helpfulness, and resident-centred activities. The whole staff from seniors to new starters all have time to answer any query to the best of their abilities.

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.
