Review from Eileen T (Wife of Resident) published on 12 June 2022 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
My Husband was well cared for in this home from home, by caring staff and management that runs a nice home, I hope next time visiting will be allowed in his room and anytime visiting can take place. But apart from that I’m very thankful for a home that cares, is pleasant and is so clean. Thank you to everyone who works in Ashling House.

Review from Alison D (Daughter of Resident) published on 18 March 2019 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
First off, this is not a "care home" it is a home where there is care, warmth and empathy. The people who work here regard everyone as individuals. It is small and the residents here have different reasons for being here but it feels like a group of friends.
Our Mum had dementia and Alzheimer's. She had lost weight and was quite poorly when we brought her here three years ago but her health and engagement improved noticeably due to the care she had.
When we arrived, Mum and myself were reassured and when I returned later, Mum was settled. Over time Mum's anxiety, Alzheimer's and unsteadiness increased. The interventions used to help mum were informed, creative and communicated well, they helped her adapt to the way she needed medications, ate and slept.
When mum passed it was dignified and without pain, in comforting surroundings. The sense of warmth from the team and residents made it clear that this was the best choice of care for mum we could have had. We'd highly recommend.

Inspection ratings
We rate most services according to how safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led they are, using four levels:
- Outstanding - The service is performing exceptionally well.
- Good - The service is performing well and meeting our expectations.
- Requires Improvement - The service isn't performing as well as it should and we have told the service how it must improve.
- Inadequate - The service is performing badly and we've taken action against the person or organisation that runs it.
- Not rated - we have not yet rated this area of the service, this is normally because the assessments we have carried out have been focused on other key questions.
