Always a reassuring experience. Staff and management ready to answer questions and keep me and my brother well informed. Able to communicate freely with the family of other residents which seem to be reassuring for both family and residents. Encouraging to see fire alarms being tested regularly. I've
never heard any complaints about food, in fact quite the opposite, they all seem to love the food and certainly the mid morning and afternoon refreshments cater for all needs. Positive and pleasant staff very important and we have that at Langley Park.

Every time I have come to the care home to visit my mum I have found the staff to be very pleasant and caring. They have always made me feel welcome and have always answered all of my questions concerning my mum. They always seem to try and help the best way they can. Nothing seems to be too much trouble
and they answer my questions to the best of their ability no matter how difficult the seem to be. My mum seems to be very happy and looks a lot better than she did before she came here they try their best to help her and the family at this very difficult time. All I can say is thank you!

Langley Park care home care is above and beyond what I have expected for my father.
They are so attentive to his needs at all times. He is very content and happy in Langley Park. The food and facilities are very good. His room is always very clean and well kept at all times. All the communal areas
are clean and bright. There's lots of brilliant quizzes and bingo session also sing along and activities to join in to. Staff always have a good relationship with my father they are always very chatty and full of fun.

The care home provides a good standard of care for my aunty. She is now settled well and feels safe, warm and cared for. If I ask staff for anything that needs attention or that I'm worried about, the response is usually quick and clear. Management and staff communicate well. Looking forward to using
the outside area (garden). No doubt this will need some attention after the storms.

On entering the care home there is always a warm, friendly greeting from all the staff. I find they all work so hard looking after the residents. The food looks lovely and is always well-presented. There is often fundraising to collect money for charity and the home. Overall I am very happy with the

Our father came to Langley Park care home at the end of May 2024, and he absolutely loved being there. The staff are so friendly that he wished he'd come earlier!
He particularly enjoyed Fish and Chip Friday and the freedom he had to order his own things online, which gave him a degree of independence
that he enjoyed.

My Dad has been in Langley Park since the beginning of June and is now a permanent resident. I have to say how grateful I am to the wonderful staff who care for him.
Dad was slow to settle and took a while for him to leave his room. He now visits the lounge daily and tells me the staff works very hard
and he couldn't manage at home now. He likes the food. I find my visits (3-4 times a week) are very pleasant and feel quite at home myself. Everyone is so friendly.

Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful feedback about your dad's experience at Langley Park Care Home. We're thrilled to hear that he's feeling more settled, enjoying meals, and joining others in the lounge.

Thank you again for trusting us with your dad's care!

This review does not relate solely to October but to every day my Dad has resided at Langley Park Care Home. All of the staff are very friendly. The carers go out of their way to make sure the residents are looked after to the highest standard. They always have a smile on their faces and make time to
chat to us when we come to visit. All of the other staff members from the receptionist, the managers, cleaners and activity coordinator are all lovely lasses. It wasn't an easy decision for us when the time came for Dad having to move into a care home however I am pleased we chose Langley Park Care Home. Even my Grandchildren love the place and take great pleasure in chatting to the residents when we visit.

My Mum is nearing the end of her life and I couldn't hope for a better place, or better staff for her to end her days. My Mum has been cared for with tremendous compassion, respect, and dignity by every single member of staff. As well as catering to my Mum's personal and medical needs, the staff have
also helped me, as next of kin, with advice and assistance regarding various administrative matters.
I will always be indebted to the managers, and all the great staff at Langley Park Care Home, and therefore, I would happily recommend the home to anyone looking for a safe, professional, and tremendously caring environment for their loved one.

Mam has been at Langley Park Care Home for well over a year and a half now and the home has exceeded our expectations (family). She is very happy there and really loves the carers. She is always lovely and clean with her hair nice and tidy. She seems to pick her own clothes and gets to wear her favourite
jumpers etc. Mam was really ill during November 2023 but the staff pulled her through. They sat with her and fed her even when she didn't feel like trying to feed herself. It's taken a while but she looks so much better now and I really can't thank them enough for the care they gave her. I don't see the food so can't comment.

Reply from Jackie Brook, Customer Relationships at Langley Park Care Home

Thank you for sharing your wonderful experience with Langley Park Care Home. We are thrilled to hear that your mother has found happiness and comfort with us over the past year and a half. Our team takes great pride in ensuring residents feel at home, and it's heartening to know that she loves the carers and is always well-groomed and comfortable. We are especially grateful for your appreciation of our staff's dedication during her illness last November. Their commitment to her recovery reflects our core values of compassionate and personalised care. Your gratitude means the world to us, and we are overjoyed to see her doing so well now.

Mam has been in Langley Park for two years. The staff are amazing. They care for Mam with compassion and kindness all the time. Mam's room is always spotless. The staff support me and my sister emotionally as it has been traumatic to see our Mam's decline. We are grieving but the staff are always there
for us and care for Mam. My only wish is an upgrade of the garden area.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.780)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.780) out of 10 for Langley Park Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 20 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.780 for Langley Park Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (183 Excellents x 5) + (47 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 232 Ratings = 4.78

  • b) 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 Langley Park Care Home is based on 20 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 46 registered maximum number of service users is 9.2, which has been reached with 20 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
