Since the short time my mother has been at Lehmann House I have seen a vast improvement in my mother's health and wellbeing. She has settled very well, this, in my opinion, is due to the extremely helpful management and staff who are very friendly towards my mother and the family and do an excellent job with her everyday needs.

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.
