I go to visit my father frequently and see events going on in the care home. The staff, when approached, are friendly, professional and helpful. While visiting the residents were offered drinks while events were going on. The activity manager was very friendly with the residents. Very lovely to witness
this!

My father came to Landsdowne in August 2013, diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. I have been extremely pleased with the care and attention he has received.
All the staff are attentive and kind, at all times.
There has been a huge and noticeable improvement in general maintenance in the last couple
of months. I could not wish for a better home for him.
He is very happy here.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother was in this care home for only one month as she required nursing care. The care staff, nursing staff and management were amazing, they were very courteous, respectful and nothing was too much trouble. The premises was constantly being cleaned and was spotless because of this. I would recommend
this care home to anyone looking for a placement for a loved one.

Recently, I have been visiting my mother regularly following a period of illness, and I am extremely pleased with the level of care provided for her eg. need for an increased level of assistance with her dietary and fluid intake.
In addition, staff are very caring towards her and I feel she is being
treated as if she was a family member. Furthermore, staff have been very supportive towards myself. I have been made to feel welcome, which makes visits a lot easier and rewarding.

My mum went into Lansdowne Care Home at the beginning of September 2016. My mum had so much love and care here. All the staff loved looking after my mum. I also got attached to 3 of the staff members on Kenilworth. They cared for mum until the end.

My mother was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer back in November 2016. Since her arrival at Lansdowne Care Home she has received kind and compassionate care from both the medical and care staff. I am glad that my mother is here as she is receiving the best possible care available which is a great
comfort to all our family.

Review from Jo M (Daughter-in-law of Resident) published on 11 November 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My husband's father was admitted there because he had dementia and cancer. In the few months he was in there, we found the home to be excellent and the carers very good and kind, they couldn't do enough for him. The meals were really good and nutritious, we got to chat to some of the clients in there,
they said how lovely the home was.
It was my husband's father's funeral on the 27th of October 2016. The manager and one of the staff tried hard to make it to the funeral, but were late, but I understand as a carer myself it's hard, we are busy at times. My husband mentioned the care home in the service, and Lansdowne got us a room so we could have the reception at the home, they even gave us some sandwiches and hot drinks. We supplied the food and cold drinks. Not many homes would do this, if any.


We would just like to say how lovely the staff were in the home, and managers, and we sent them some flowers. I think when a home and staff have gone out of their way to help and care, they should be appreciated. Anyone can have qualifications and want money to do this kind of work, but what is needed is common sense and a good heart and we have to say, from what we saw and received, this home deserves praise.

My brother has been a resident in Lansdowne Care Home for over three and a half years. We have tried to visit every day and have never found anything but kindness and warmth from every member of staff - nursing, domestic, care and admin. My brother has suffered a great deal but he appreciates all the
care he has received and has been able to relax knowing he is in capable and caring hands.

In my view this is a very good care home caring for residents from several London boroughs. Staff are very caring and welcome visitors in a friendly manner. Residents appear to be content with their surrounds and handling, and seem very satisfied with the meal menus. The home manager, administrator
or carers and nurses are always available, and cleanliness is of a very high standard all round. A quarterly meeting is held with management, section heads and relatives.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.811)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.811) 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 4.8 out of 5 from 36 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 34 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 4.811 for Lansdowne Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (372 Excellents x 5) + (42 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) + (4 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 428 Ratings = 4.811
  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 34 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 34 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.
