I can't fault the staff with their care for my elderly aunt who is bedridden and almost blind. I'm sure at times she can be very awkward, but I know she is looked after.

This is a great home. My mum says it feels like a family atmosphere, mainly due to the lovely staff. The room she has is just right - a nice bed, a wet room and a comfy chair with a nice view from the window. She enjoys the food although she can be quite particular so I guess it’s quite a challenge
for the chef! The cost is very reasonable, especially comparing it with someone coming into a house to look after my mum. She’s been out on a bus trip arranged by the home and also a wheelchair tour in the local shopping area. My mum is often in pain but the carers are always looking for ways to ease the pain. They are so caring. I would be very happy to spend my last few years in this home.

My mother moved in a few months ago, staff were helpful ensuring she settled in. She has dementia so it is important she is not left to sit alone. There is a marked improvement already, she has humour again and is more sociable. She is happy, there is always something going on. Thank you and would highly
recommend it.

I had a great advantage over most residents arriving here as a local methodist. I had been fully aware of Longholme since it was opened in 1969, and over the years, I have attended services and functions and visited several residents.
My overall impression since coming here in April 2021 has been
of very caring and approachable staff at all levels. This, more than any other factor, has made me a contended person.

A wonderful care home built on trust, hard work and commitment. This all transpires from the top. Staff are valued and are always willing to help in any way they can. They go over and above their required work role.
Sometimes there appears to be a shortage of staff but this is probably due to holidays
being taken - I don't know. I feel my mum is very well cared for and very safe.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother moved to Langholme after living in another care home. That home was adequate but Langholme is so much better. Her room is lovely; the standard of cleanliness is excellent; I haven't met a member of the team who I haven't liked; activities are arranged for most days and the residents are given
the opportunity to go out in the mini-bus regularly. I love that there are two floors - dementia/non-dementia so that residents without dementia get time away from the sometimes more disruptive residents, however they all meet for entertainment. I can't really rate the home highly enough. I'm so happy my mum is there.

My mum moved in, in March. This was a new experience for both her and the rest of our family. Not only does mum receive excellent care I really feel we as relatives receive equal care. I am so grateful to everyone. Mum's room was freshly painted as I said she wouldn't like the blue walls. Every request
was accommodated to help mum settle in. Everyone is so friendly and knowledgeable and chatted with mum. I know we made the right choice.

Due to mum’s struggle with Dementia and Alzheimers, she has now lived at Langholme for 12 months and I have been very happy with the care that she receives. The carers, nursing staff and management are all very professional, but most importantly they are very friendly and kind. Langholme feels like
a home from home, it has a lovely community feel and they certainly seem to go above and beyond to help their residents live the best life they can. The entertainment, gardens, communal areas and rooms are wonderful and as a relative, I can’t put into words what a relief it is to see mum settled into such a lovely place.

My father is a resident of Langholme. I find them a helpful and caring place for him to live. He has dementia, and as such, they need to take special notice of his needs as they change all the time. Whilst this is a lot of money, I think it offers a good value compared to others. I would recommend them.

My dad seemed to be losing his mind and lost the will to live in his last care home but since being at Langhome he is much happier and back to his old self regaining lost brain cells and humour. I can't find fault with Langholme it feels like a big family home with a very relaxed atmosphere. The staff
are so kind and friendly and always have plenty of time for family and residents, nothing seems to be a problem for them. The food is great and the gardens are beautiful and peaceful.

I have been a resident here since April 2021. Over the years I had visited many times as a visitor or to fetes and services I am a Methodist and know two of the residents already. Since then I have felt very much at home here despite periods of quarantine. I have times of depression which I have been
prone to for years but this has been shorted lived greatly helped by the care and understanding of the staff. The staff have been so helpful in regarding Langholme as my home after 75 years of residence in the Ponsanooth area

Langholme has provided a secure and caring environment for my aunt. Over the last two difficult years, they have remained consistent and professional. Whilst I understand the constraints and restrictions, it would be nice if there were more simple activities, both mental and physical. Overall, I am
very happy with Langholme - staff and premises.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.683)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.683) out of 10 for Langholme is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 10 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.683 for Langholme is calculated as follows: ( (84 Excellents x 5) + (34 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 120 Ratings = 4.683
  2. 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 Langholme is based on 10 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 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
    2. 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 40 registered maximum number of service users is 8, which has been reached with 10 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
