Review from Clive B (Husband of Resident) published on 13 April 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Thank you for all the care, love, and kindness you have and are giving my wife. With the aid of the activity team, I have been able, via the computer and Skype, to see my wife singing and laughing which shows how contented she is. Also, the manager always has a welcome smile when we arrive even though
it has been such a difficult year. My very best wishes to all.

My aunt was a resident from September 2019 to her death in March 2021. The staff were always caring and supportive during a very challenging time through the pandemic supporting access via Skype and keeping us informed throughout. In her last days, my aunt was well cared for, and we were able to say
goodbye.

My auntie was at the home from September 2019 to her passing in March 2020. During this period the staff were caring and thoughtful, given the difficult circumstances around Covid. In the end the staff kept me well informed and enabled myself and my wife to make a farewell visit. I and the rest of the
family are very pleased with the level of care given to my auntie and the family.

The staff were so kind and went to above and beyond to reassure me and my Mum that my Dad was in safe and well secure hands. Their kindness and patience were outstanding in every phone call. The Manager was extremely helpful and supportive and let me see my Dad through the window.

Review from Anna K (Friend of Resident) published on 9 July 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
It took us a long time to get our elderly friend, who had dementia, into a care home but as soon as he entered Ashwood we knew it was the right place. The staff could not have been more helpful or approachable, and every time we visited in the 18 months that he was there he was smiling and happy and
well looked after. They were always welcoming and warm towards us, and he was clean and dressed smartly whenever we dropped in. It genuinely felt like a home environment, but a safe and secure one for vulnerable people. Thank you to all at Ashwood, for making his last months so comfortable and happy.

The care and attention my Dad received here in his final months were outstanding. They were so attentive, caring, empathetic and became family. The staff genuinely cared for Dad as they showed again and again. I wish I had known about Ashwood when I needed a care home for my Mum. I would highly recommend.

We visited our grandfather on his birthday. I was pleasantly surprised by how friendly and helpful the manager and office staff were! The HCAs/carers were equally helpful - they provided us with a butter knife to cut the cake with, took and printed photos for my grandfather's room wall - everything
with a friendly smile, without making us feel as though we were an inconvenience! Most grateful to the team!

Mum came for a respite weekend. She was nervous about coming but was immediately put at ease. She thoroughly enjoyed her time here. We will definitely be using again as it gave me a well earned weekend with peace of mind that mum was well looked after.

Extremely caring and professional staff, kind and understanding manager.
All the staff we met were as above. My father only spent 2 days at Ashwood before he passed but the lovely staff made it as peaceful and dignified as possible for which we are extremely grateful.

Ashwood is an excellent care home. All the staff give everything they can to ensure the residents have the utmost care and attention they need. The staff are led by a very experienced manager who always has time to listen to relatives opinions and comments. My mother has spent over four happy years
here. Well done to all the staff at Ashwood Care Centre.

This care home is a homely environment, the staff are always friendly, there are always lots of activities going on for the residence. My cousin is always well looked after. I love that they have fun days for friends and families so we can all be involved. Since it has been taken over, a lot has changed
and is changing for the better.

Dad went into Ashwood in October, he was only there a week before he went into hospital. But the care he received was outstanding. not only do they care for the resident, they also look after their loved ones. Dad was looked after, warm, fed and given lots of help. He was happy and had a smile every
time we went to visit. The staff and management are outstanding, a great care centre.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.766)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.766) out of 10 for Ashwood Care Centre 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 25 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 25 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 4.766 for Ashwood Care Centre is calculated as follows: ( (225 Excellents x 5) + (62 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 290 Ratings = 4.766
  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 Ashwood Care Centre is based on 25 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 70 registered maximum number of service users is 14, which has been reached with 25 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.
