Review from Gary P (Son of Resident) published on 17 February 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum went to Aarondale in early January after struggling at home. The manager was so helpful in getting the placement sorted out which is a difficult and daunting process, dealing with social workers and finance departments etc. All the staff are superb and so genuine and friendly. I think that will
be one comment running through all reviews. Mum has settled in quickly after being in the same house for nearly 60 years, so a testament to how homely and welcoming the environment is. If you are worried about placing an elderly family member into residential care then Aarondale really is a pleasant place for them to be.

The staff and management are very caring. They treat all the residents with extreme kindness, gentleness and respect. They are cheerful and positive. Sometimes when a resident says something negative the staff always move on with kindness and respect. Everything else - cleanliness, food, drink and activities
are very good.
Reply from Anne Sheward, Home Manager at Aarondale Care Home

Thank you so much for your kind words, we haven't known your family very long but your dad cheers us up every day and with his years of life experiences, there's a story and lessons we are all learning.

Show respect and care for residents.
Clean rooms (lounge area).
I am a friend who visits every 2 weeks and can't comment on value for money and rooms as I only visit in the lounge area. Also not sure regarding food and drink.

Since moving my husband to Aarondale, his overall well-being has drastically improved. The carers actually do care. He is so much happier, and his personality is coming back. He thinks of his carers as friends.
I honestly cannot praise them enough.

I found Aarondale Care Home excellent in the way they treated my mum, they treated her with dignity, were very attentive to her and were very polite. I couldn't have wished her to be in a better place than this care home. Both my family and I are happy with the service provided by all the staff there.
My mum liked all the staff very much.

Dad is looked after very well, I feel his needs are met. The staff are lovely and very approachable and friendly. On the seldom occasion Dad has needed to see a doctor or go to hospital, staff have contacted me so I'm in the loop of Dad's care at all times.

Staff are lovely and caring. The manager is helpful and friendly. Mum seems to like it here. I'm always welcome to visit and spend time with my mum.
Rated some options as good because I know they are available but Mum doesn't always participate by choice, i.e. activities.

My mother has lived in Aarondale for over two years. As I live in another country, it is hard to choose a care home, but the decision to Aaronfale has never been a question. The level of care has been outstanding, with the most caring staff at all levels, from management to cleaners. Entertainment was
very important to my mum, and they certainly try to make occasions special. I wholeheartedly would recommend Aarondale.

Putting Mum into Aarondale Care Home has been life-changing. Mum is now clean and happy, and I no longer have to worry about her well-being. I now enjoy my time with Mum much more. I should have brought her here sooner. It's taken so much stress away. Life better. Mum's receiving the best care.

Following a change of ownership/management, the improvement in quality of care has been fantastic. All rooms are currently being redecorated and updated where necessary. All staff are dedicated to ensuring the residents enjoy themselves with lots of activities and entertainment. I'm personally delighted
that Aarondale is the place I chose to care for my Mum when I could no longer cope. This is a care home that really does care for its residents.

Mum went into Aarondale care home at the height of the pandemic when my father was struggling to care for her. The staff have been meticulous in keeping their residents safe, and Mum is doing well in their care, and seems happy and settled. The staff do their utmost to meet her needs and to keep her
interested and were so efficient, and professional when a long term condition required urgent hospitalisation. My dad is now able to visit regularly, and our family has been made so welcome on the phone and in person. It is comforting for us to know that my mum is in such a happy, caring, safe, environment.
Reply from Hannah Prescott, Home Manager at Aarondale Care Home

Thank you for this lovely review. As you are aware we love having Mum live with us and we love Dad's regular visits. We are really glad we are able to support Mum and I just have to say a huge thank you for all the model planes and Titanic ship for our bar.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.459)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.459) out of 10 for Aarondale Care Home 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 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 8 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 4.826 for Aarondale Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (76 Excellents x 5) + (16 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 92 Ratings = 4.826
  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 4.633 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Aarondale Care Home is based on 8 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 = 3.8
    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 48 registered maximum number of service users is 9.6. 8 Positive Reviews ÷ 9.6 = 0.833
  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.
