What a lovely place. The managers are so helpful, thoughtful and caring, and this attitude filters down to all the staff. My mother did not have a bad word to say about the staff or the accommodation, which is high praise indeed coming from someone who could find fault in anything! All the staff helped
make the experience of moving Mum into the home a lot less stressful than it otherwise might have been. I would recommend Bank Close House.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our whole family were so impressed by the care and attention given by ALL the staff here towards Mum. She needed respite care following a few weeks in hospital and needed some TLC. The staff and management team here at Bank Close House were totally caring, thoughtful and attentive at all times.
We noticed they went above and beyond to support Mum, for example taking time out to curl her hair and making sure she was comfortable, working to getting Mum back on her feet and independent again. We also noticed how kind and thoughtful all the staff were to other residents, continually caring and chatting with them. The staff were always working and with the residents. Really humbling to see the love and care shown to others. Well done to you all! Just lovely people. The old house is beautiful - lovely to sit in the grounds - with the new wing very smart if you prefer mod cons.
A huge personal thank you to everyone here and we would fully recommend Bank Close House.

My friend has been at this home since May 2024 as she has Alzheimer's. She was happy there but bored as they do nothing with them apart from play bingo which she can't do. They've had one live music afternoon in nearly a year despite stating different on their website. They had packed her clothes the
day I was moving her so I didn't get chance to check anything and on unpacking she's got items not hers and a lot missing. She often looked unkempt and so do some of the others. 2 residents were wandering corridors in this large house with no staff in sight and didn't know where to go I had to fetch the cook from the kitchen to assist them as no staff around. Senior staff often stood at the back door smoking so the house smells of smoke. Member of staff smells of alcohol which is a concern when giving out meds. I've also witnessed a lot of things so I would not recommend this care home at all. Avoid if you want a caring home.

Review from V T (Wife of Resident) published on 9 December 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My husband arrived at the care home at the end of September with mobility issues from a fractured hip. He also has dementia and this has been a slow ongoing process the last ten years. I had arranged a holiday for October and normally our children look after him but were not able to on this occasion
due to the mobility issues. The plan was for him to come home in November but so far this has not been possible.
He has settled in well and appears to be content there. He doesn't tell me anything but the staff are very pleasant and helpful. I can visit anytime and management are always available to answer queries. His room is in the new extension and is well equipped and comfortable with an en suite bathroom.
I can't comment on value for money as this is my first experience of long term use of a care home and I believe most care homes in the area charge the same fees. He has had short stays at another home in the past but this was some years ago when fees cost considerably less.

As residential care is a new experience for my husband and myself, I have nothing to compare Bank Close House with. However, so far, the experience is proving generally good. Most importantly, my husband is settling in well. Although the home is undergoing renovations, safety, comfort for the residents
and cleanliness are very good. The food is also good, according to my husband who really enjoys it! Management and staff are always happy to listen to my concerns and have helped to solve them. I'm informed of any necessary changes to medication and treatment he needs. The atmosphere is friendly and informal which encourages us to visit frequently any time, apart from meal times. Overall, I'm very relieved that my husband feels happy and comfortable with the helpful and caring staff.

The care provided for my mother at Bank Close House has been and continues to be absolutely first-class. As soon as you enter the door, the first feeling is of the friendliness of the environment within the home. All the team show genuine care for all the residents, be they there for short-term respite
or permanent residents. It really does have the feel of being a family home for everyone and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Bank Close House to anyone who needs care or who has a loved one needing care and support.

The home is very old looking due to the age of the building. I'm sure it could be brought more up-to-date. The staff are friendly and are good with the patients. am kept up to date on my friend's health by telephone if I am not able to visit him. I am overall pleased with the care he has been given.

Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5
Mum moved into Bank Close House, Hasland in August 2022 from a previous Care Home that I had concerns about. The staff at BCH seem very friendly whenever I visit and very approachable. However, although mums overall care is much improved compared to her previous placement, I do still have concerns.
My main issue is the laundry, so many of mums clothing items went missing even though carefully labelled everything before she went into BCH. This became so repetitive that we now do all of mums laundry ourselves, despite being included in her fees. I am unsure if any stimulating activities take part at BCH either. Mum seems much happier in BCH which means a lot, but there certainly is room for improvement.

Where do I begin? Just to say how much you do for my husband, it has been a hard eighteen months for everybody. Your staff are the most professional, loving and kind people towards not just my husband but our whole family. It's been difficult for everybody. I love my husband dearly and without you all
caring for him, I would have missed out on your love and hard work. Love you all.

My Father had a short respite stay here. Due to the level of care he received, we had no alternative but to move him to another home.


In my opinion, I feel the home is inadequate and would greatly benefit from some further staff training to ensure the best care is given to its residents in the

most professional way.


I am unable to recommend this care home as it fell below my standards.

My mum was at Bank Close from September 2017 to February 2018. It's a pity I can't mention names of staff as they were all so brilliant with Mum, and some deserve a special mention for going well above what would be expected.
Mum always said she never wanted to go into a home and was not happy about
it, but the staff treated her so well and helped to improve her mobility again after a fall as well as making her feel valued. They all enjoyed having a joke and sharing stories with her. Mum settled in quickly and began to actually be very happy there - and I would have said that would never happen. I would often spend many hours with her there and never felt I was in their way - in fact, the exact opposite.
Yes, the building and facilities are old and a bit shabby, but quite charming and Mum preferred that to bright, shiny modern premises anyway.
Unfortunately, mum had a stroke and has moved into a nursing home. However, she says it is her aim to return to Bank Close - praise indeed!

On arriving, they asked my Gran all about her usual routine and respected her wishes.
I had no concerns whatsoever with the care my Gran received from the staff.

Current Review Score: 9.2 (9.236)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.2 (9.236) out of 10 for Bank Close House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.3 out of 5 from 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 9 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 4.336 for Bank Close House is calculated as follows: ( (76 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (11 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 113 Ratings = 4.336
  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 4.9 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bank Close House is based on 9 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 = 3.9
    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 27 registered maximum number of service users is 5.4, which has been reached with 9 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.
