It was a very challenging time when my mother first moved into this lovely care home. The staff, especially the manager, have been extremely supportive and kind to help make this difficult and traumatic transition for my mum. I am also very grateful for the support the staff have extended to me. Thank

Under very difficult circumstances the care my mother received at Greville House was outstanding! Nothing was ever too much trouble for them and they did their utmost to support her and her family at all times. The management is excellent and they kept us informed at all stages of my mom's care, clearly
explaining the decisions they were making. The carers also were fantastic and very patient with her. I would highly recommend anyone who has to place a relative in care to try Greville House!

My Mom has complex eating issues, very unsteady on her legs and was very anxious plus very depressed after a stay in hospital in the middle of a pandemic. I contacted Greville care home as my aunties were residents and I wasn't sure they had any vacancies. The home were happy to take Mom at this time
for rehabilitation and respite in August 2020. In September my Mom became a permanent resident and is now very happy and her eating issues have eased and she is full of life. I am so pleased to see the improvements of my Mom's health and outlook on life in such a lovely friendly home.

Very homely environment like an old fashioned residential hotel. My mother likes the fact that it is ladies only. The staff are very caring and helpful. My only reservation would be that my mother doesn't find the activities very stimulating.

Words are barely enough to express how wonderful all Greville House staff are. Mum has been very poorly but the staff have welcomed her back from hospital and through their care and support she has made really good progress. She continues to need medical care from the district nursing team, but the
staff at Greville House do everything possible to make sure Mum is comfortable and looked after. I know Mum feels the same and she views GrevilleHouse as her home. We could not wish for better care for Mum. A huge thank you to the whole team.

My Godmother is extremely happy at Greville House. During this surreal time, life and routine is been kept safely and professionally. I had some lovely photos of my godmother having tea parties, ladies day etc, and she had a lovely birthday meal and tea party on her big day as we could not see her.
The
home is of modest size, homely, professionally run, nothing to much trouble for the staff, with high standards maintained.

Review from Elaine S (Daughter of Resident) published on 5 August 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mom went to the home originally for 2 weeks whilst I went on holiday. Our family were very concerned about her living at home on her own even with carers and family caring for her we felt she was vulnerable. She enjoyed the company and the food, they looked after her medication and she seemed less
anxious and more relaxed. So, she decided to stay a little longer, she has been their 2 years now.
It was difficult at first she was obviously missing her home, we had tears but throughout all of the settling in period the staff and management were so supportive to my mom and reassuring to the family. She is now very content at Greville House, they maintain her personal standards she always has a clean room, clothes, and bed linen. She enjoys good food, there are activities every week and she is never lonely. I know that she is extremely well cared for. Throughout the Covid crisis, the staff and management have been amazing as always. I too feel like part of the family at Greville House.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Greville House had been my mothers "home" for the last three and a half years and she was extremely happy and contented there.
The staff are all exemplary with resident care their primary goal and they never failed my mother on any occasion!
Whenever we visited the house we were welcomed with open
arms and looked after extremely well.
We developed lovely relationships with many of the staff and we were all on a first-name basis.
Whilst it was always sad to say goodbye after a visit, we always knew that my mother was in the best of hands, cared for as though she was part of one big happy family.
The staff sincerely loved my mother and all of her little ways, just as any good family would do.
We have never regretted our decision for my mother to stay at Greville House and have no hesitation whatsoever to recommended it.
Just one final thank you from my family for the kindness and support that we received so freely from you throughout.

Mom only lived at Greville House for 6 months as a step down from Nursing Care, which initially she found quite stressful, however she was made to feel very welcome, had the room of her choice, and quite quickly settled in and made friends and particularly enjoyed the activities. I can't praise highly
enough the quality and caring nature of the staff. No problem was too big or too small.

My mother has been a resident of Greville House for 4 years. I am so pleased that she is there being wonderfully cared for by all the staff. The carers,well-led by the care manager, know the residents well and treat them with kindness and respect. There is a warm friendly welcoming atmosphere within
the home. The carers and entertainment staff always make such an effort to celebrate residents' birthdays and all festive occasions.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum has been at Greville House since a fall at home in 2016 when she decided she was no longer safe living alone. I researched several homes, both luxury new builds and traditional homes. As soon as I entered Greville it had a good 'vibe', I was shown around by the manager and on my visit one of the
residents said 'if you are looking for somewhere, you won’t find anywhere better than here'.
Mum has some health problems, she is now 95, but I can't fault the management and staff at Greville. Mum is encouraged to be as independent as possible, and the staff are very alert to any change in mum's behaviour. We are kept well informed, and I feel so reassured knowing that mum is safe, well cared for and, most of all, happy. During lockdown, it has not been possible to visit, but prior to that mum always told me how happy she is there, and how the staff really care about them. They really do go above and beyond what I expected.

Greville House is a first class care home. My mother has been a resident for ten months and she has improved considerably, both physically and mentally. The homely environment, level of care and stimulation provided by the activities has vastly increased my mother's quality of life.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.847)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.847) out of 10 for Greville House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 4.847 for Greville House is calculated as follows: ( (162 Excellents x 5) + (27 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 190 Ratings = 4.847
  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 Greville House is based on 16 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 25 registered maximum number of service users is 5, which has been reached with 16 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.
