Review from Kath W (Daughter of Resident) published on 6 March 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum was a resident at Leeming Bar Grange for three and a bit years. She passed away on Christmas Eve. I have previously commented on the wonderful care Mum received throughout her time, but wanted to comment specifically on the end-of-life care. I live in France and have always been dependent on
the excellent communication of the staff. When Mum was taken ill shortly before Christmas, I was kept up to date sensitively but also realistically. I got myself to LBG as quickly as possible and was able to spend the last 2 days of Mum's life at her side. Mum was treated with the greatest respect and dignity until the end. Even though it was Christmas and everyone was extremely busy, they all had time for me - making sure I had what I needed, keeping me company, checking in emotionally. I felt totally supported and cared for by every member of staff day and night. Thank you so much to everyone for making a horrendous time bearable.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
After eight and a half years, my mum reached end of life. She was very well looked after and was happy throughout. In spite of a high turnover of managers, there is a hard core who remain loyal and have offered their 'love' and 'care' for Mum. This core of staff instills expectations amongst other staff
and so I believe it is an excellent home. At the end of life, my mum was treated with utmost respect and dignity and the night staff were diligent in their duties and work very hard. I cannot thank all the staff enough for their care. Thank you.

Review from Bridget O (Wife of Resident) published on 29 September 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My husband was admitted to Leeming Bar Grange Care Home earlier this month for two weeks respite care as I was struggling with my health and finding it difficult to cope. My husband was greeted by name by all the staff on arrival and immediately felt at ease.
The facilities and rooms at the home are
of a very high standard and the food menus varied and nutritious. My husband soon settled which was a comfort to me as we had never been apart for over fifty years. All the staff are extremely caring and helpful and the residents always seem to be very happy and mix well.
I felt reassured that my husband would be very well taken care of and indeed he was and friends and relatives who visited him in my absence all said they had been made very welcome and served tea and refreshments during their visit.
I would not hesitate for my husband to spend more time at this home if it should become necessary in the future.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
What an amazing place! My mum has been there for nearly four years now, and we have been so lucky to have such a wonderful team of fantastic people caring for her. As soon as you walk through the doors, the atmosphere is so happy and friendly, all the staff are truly amazing and go above and beyond
to make sure that Mum is loved, happy and always smiling! The activities team provide the most amazing activities every day, which she loves; they understand her dementia and know how she is feeling, which is so important to us. The kitchen staff provide delicious food and make amazing birthday cakes, which always make the residents smile! I can't thank everyone enough, from the carers, who kindly look after Mum and let me know regularly how she is doing, to the maintenance man who cheers everyone up every day and drives the minibus for wonderful days out, the receptionists who Mum loves to have a natter with and the amazing manager who looks after everyone, making this a very special place!

My mum has lived at Leeming Bar Grange since 2019. We chose this home mainly for the activities, as my mum needed stimulation most days. When we looked around the home, we immediately knew it was the right place for Mum, it was so clean and friendly. The activity staff are brilliant. Having the minibus
has been fabulous as Mum really loves a ride out. We have not been disappointed. All the staff have been excellent with her, making her feel special. The manager has been brilliant, she says every time we talk to her or her staff, that this is Mum's home and that means a great deal to us.

Our mother has been a resident here for over a year now and absolutely loves living here! She originally came for respite care but didn't want to leave when the time came for her to do so. All the staff here are amazing, so caring and nothing is too much trouble for them.
In Mum's own words:- I couldn't
have found anywhere better!

My mum arrived at Leeming Bar Grange after a short stay in hospital. She was extremely nervous, had no confidence walking, scared of falling. Within a couple of days, she was walking with her frame with one carer and joining in activities. Her smile and her confidence returned. Staff are very patient
and understanding when given person-centred care, which helps Mum's anxiousness. Mum has gained weight every week as encouraged to sit in the lounge with fellow residents and enjoy her meals again. Again, staff very understanding.

My mum-in-law was admitted to Leaming Bar after a hospital stay. We didn't have many options as to where he would go due to Covid, however, she was made so welcome, cared for and she was happy from day one. To see her cared for and looked after was a huge relief for the family. The staff have been more

I go to see my brother on most days. I went on Saturday 2nd February. He was frozen in his bedroom. They said they would get someone. They said they would be there within four hours. I went again the next day and he was frozen again. They said they would get someone within four hours. I don't think
that is right. There should have been a heater or something. On the 3rd February, they moved him out of his bedroom and put a new bathroom in. They moved him back into his bedroom before completed. Everything was alright until Barchester moved in. I do hope it is going to improve.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.681)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.681) out of 10 for Barchester Leeming Bar Grange Care Home 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 24 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 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 4.681 for Barchester Leeming Bar Grange Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (215 Excellents x 5) + (59 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (6 Poors x 2) + (2 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 285 Ratings = 4.681
  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 Barchester Leeming Bar Grange Care Home is based on 23 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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, which has been reached with 23 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.
