My father-in-law has lived at Angela Grace for 18 months now. The home is wonderful and the staff are so kind and caring. He is so content living there and whereas if we were busy with work before him moving there and couldn't visit we'd panic we don't now as we know that the staff will be looking after
him. The management are super and always say hello when they see you. They know every resident by name and their needs. I would thoroughly recommend it if anyone is looking for a care home.

Reply from Lacramioara Toma, Administrator at The Angela Grace Care Centre

That's wonderful to hear! It sounds like Angela Grace is such a warm and caring place, and it must bring so much peace of mind knowing your father-in-law is in such good hands. It's truly reassuring to have such attentive staff and management who really care about the residents. Thank you for sharing this recommendation; it's always comforting to know there are places like this that make families feel so supported!

The care my mum has received since March 2024 has been incredible.
The staff at all levels are caring, cheerful, hardworking, respectful, professional and polite.
Feels like we belong to another family here at Angela Grace.
It is a comfort to know Mum is being so well looked after.
This has been
a huge change in our family circumstances, but the staff have helped Dad and I adapt and always ask how we are too.
Mum's weight has increased and enjoys the hot meals prepared daily.
We feel very lucky for Mum to be at Angela Grace.

From the very first day of my mother staying at Angela Grace I felt at home, everyone was so kind, helpful and understanding. The transition for Mum leaving home and becoming a full-time resident was a smooth and friendly time. Understanding her needs, and her quality of life with keeping her dignity
and self-respect intact.
Mum has been here for over a year now and she is very happy, I feel at home every time I visit. I love all the staff who care for Mum and I feel at peace knowing she's safe and happy.

Reply from Lacramioara Toma, Administrator at The Angela Grace Care Centre

My first impression of The Angela Grace Care Centre was the smiley faces of the staff. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming. This positive attitude extended towards the acre of my husband, who has a brain tumour, which means he can be very mad and aggressive at times. He is still always treated with
respect and is well cared for. The manager and her team are also very hands-on in his care and in talking to him and the nurses keep me informed as to how he is progressing. The activities team also provide added value in keeping the residents occupied. I feel he is getting very good care there.

Reply from Lacramioara Toma, Administrator at The Angela Grace Care Centre

Thank you for sharing your experience at The Angela Grace Care Centre. It's heartwarming to hear that your husband is surrounded by our compassionate and dedicated staff, especially with the challenges you're both facing. We can imagine how much comfort it brings knowing that he's being cared for with respect and kindness, even in difficult moments. The involvement of the whole team, from the nurses to the activities staff, sounds like it's making a real difference in his life and yours. We are so glad to know he's in such capable hands, and thinking of both of you.

Mum moved here the beginning of July and everyone has made her, and us, feel most welcome. All the staff are friendly, caring and full of smiles. Everywhere is clean and there is plenty to do for residents with activities which are thoughtful and varied. Mum has settled wonderfully and is happy, so
we as a family are too in knowing that she is safe, comfortable and respected. Thank you to all.

My Mum moved to The Angela Grace in July 2024, from their sister facility, and we really couldn't have asked for a better experience. From the day Mum arrived, all of the staff have been so friendly and caring and have taken such trouble to get to know Mum, so that the very highest standard of personalised
care can be offered. As a family, we are so very grateful for the great care that is taken of Mum. We can see that our Mum is happy and settled, she loves being sociable and seeing everyone, so the large number of daily activities that are offered are ideal, and Mum loves being included and joining in with everything. We cannot thank everyone at The Angela Grace enough, for making Mum, and my Sister and I so welcome. The home is always immaculate and well-run, and we can see that Mum is safe, happy and well-cared for. This is a huge relief to us and makes what can be a difficult situation, that bit easier. Thank you!

My dad moved into Angela Grace in December 2023. 2023 was a very stressful time for my dad, he had been in hospital, all over the place and then moved out of the area he lived, he found himself at another home, a great place however, not suitable for my dad's changing needs and it was not in his hometown.
I was advised to investigate Angela Grace for Dad, I did and the manager from Angela Grace was very helpful in getting the transfer finally completed. This was not an easy task.
The right level of care is very important as I am not around to help him. The team make sure my dad has that right level of care, the home is lovely.
For me the bits that really stand out are, cleanliness, communication with me, all my dad's needs being taken care of, finally the team, whatever the role someone carries out, they are so professional. My dad is happy, I know as when I am with him, I can tell. Well done and my thanks to all the team at Angela Grace.

When I first visited there the cleanliness was the thing I noticed and that's never changed, then my husband moved in and the staff care for them so much, I know he's very well looked after, I don't have any concerns if I need to go away I know I'd get a call if anything was wrong, it's like my second
home now and I feel very welcome, and thank you to all the staff who work at The Angela Grace.

When I leave my husband after visiting I feel assured that I have left him in very capable hands. The home is very clean and bright. The staff make it their business to know your name and are always smiling. The manager is always very approachable and kind. The nurses constantly keep you informed of
any medical issues as soon as they happen. Relative meetings plus care plan reviews are very useful. The activities team are superb and provide very interesting daily activities 7 days a week. They put a lot of effort into providing themed activities. Food is very good and there is always the option of joining my husband for a meal for a small charge. My granddaughter, who is eight years old, commented that she liked the staff very much as they were all very kind and caring to Grandad and to her and they were all very smiley, what more do you want for your loved one? It says it all. I feel very lucky to have him in Angela Grace! Would thoroughly recommend it.

My mother had experienced two different residential homes prior to her joining Angela Grace Centre. Her prognosis was very poor after she left the hospital; she was deemed ‘end of life’. The level of care, positive attention, compassion, consistency and empowerment provided to my mother has led her
to be alive still after 2 years. All staff are genuinely cheerful and welcoming every time we visit. Reviews for my mother are regular and inclusive. Provision for the needs of my mother’s religious beliefs are met fully, and we are truly grateful.

I visit my very elderly mother more or less daily. The staff are always warm, friendly and very approachable. My mother's behaviour can sometimes be challenging, but they care for her with a high degree of professionalism, understanding and compassion. The cleanliness of the home is impeccable. I honestly
couldn't find anything to be critical of.

The lead nurse is proactive when Dad appears to be unwell and seeks medical attention and keeps us up to date. The carers are warm and compassionate. Dad's personal care needs are high now (he requires extra skincare to avoid very dry skin and pressure sores) and he is cared for with dignity and professionalism.

My mother became a resident in Dec 2023, since when she has received the best level of care I could have hoped for. All the staff are caring and attentive, with a happy and positive approach. The home is spotlessly clean and very well. It’s so reassuring to know that my mum is getting the best care

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.944)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.944) out of 10 for The Angela Grace Care Centre is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 29 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 29 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 4.944 for The Angela Grace Care Centre is calculated as follows: ( (320 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 337 Ratings = 4.944

  • 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 The Angela Grace Care Centre is based on 29 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 78 registered maximum number of service users is 15.6, which has been reached with 29 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.
