The only comment is the lack of attention to outside visitors during covid tests. No one watches or checks if done correctly or checked what the results are.

My mother has been extremely well looked after from the moment she arrived. The staff are kind and caring and very sweet with her and she enjoys the food. We are always made to feel very welcome when we visit. We have absolutely no complaints - just praise for the way my mother is treated.

I visited my mother-in-law when my wife was away. The biggest impression I had was how attentive the staff are in making sure she is comfortable. Always clean bedding. I was very pleased to see that the staff had made an effort to get her out of bed and into an armchair. This is excellent care.

Review from N E (Cousin of Resident) published on 28 November 2022 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My cousin's welcome was very good to Lansdown both from the Manager and Staff Team, and communication with his loved ones was enough for satisfaction that my cousin would be well looked after. The expectations we had have been fulfilled. In a busy nursing home, the staff and nursing team work hard to
fulfil all their resident's needs. The home is whilst clean, feels slightly in need of a facelift and this I suppose comes down to budget. Residents feel confined to their rooms probably down to their medical needs and there seems no interaction between them, but I do commend and applaud the effort made by the Entertainment Manager to allow us to create an 80th birthday party with 25 guests recently. My cousin was thrilled with the occasion. I just feel he needs that interaction every week.

Very pleased with the care my father receives. The nurses are very caring and friendly and are always pleased to see me. Everyone is so busy but still smile. I feel confident that my father is in good hands when I leave after my visits. The home is always clean and comfortable.

It has been a truly amazing experience to see my brother-in-law enjoying all the activities that the care home has been doing. We attended the summer festival this week and it was so wonderful with the music party and barbecue. The activity coordinator is a plus for the care home and very loving, initiative
and helpful. It is an amazing experience to see smiles on the faces of all residents and special thanks to the activities coordinator and her team for all her help.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My mother moved to Lansdown four months ago to be near to myself and her daughter. The transition from her previous care home was handled very well particular as it followed closely the death of her husband. Lansdown has treated my mother well and she seems very happy, eats and drinks and participates
in activities. Living in a care home can never be the same as being at home we are content with her situation.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.873)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.873) out of 10 for Lansdowne Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 54 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 54 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 4.873 for Lansdowne Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (556 Excellents x 5) + (79 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 636 Ratings = 4.873
  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 Lansdowne Care Home is based on 54 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 92 registered maximum number of service users is 18.4, which has been reached with 54 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.
