Review from R H (Sister of Resident) published on 7 February 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Lovely and caring staff. Amenities are kept clean and comfortable.
The cuisine is also of a high standard, bearing in mind my brother's declining condition, the staff ensure all food is cut up to enable him to swallow.
Up until the end of January, Larchfields Covid screening has also been good; I
still, however, think this should continue.

My cousin with advanced dementia requiring 24 hour monitoring is cared for with the utmost compassion and dedication. I am always amazed by the patience shown by all staff and I am regularly telephoned if there is any change in condition, which is inevitable given the severity of her illness. I have
confidence she has access to the best medical care when needed.

I found the time I spend at Larchfield House whilst visiting my sister to be very reassuring. The care she receives is brilliant, also the staff are very supportive towards me and her family. I have always found on my visits to Larchfield House for it to be clean and comfortable and the staff to be
very attentive to both my sister and myself at all times.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother-in-law has been a resident at Larchfield House for over a year. The staff are fabulous and treat her with respect and dignity. She has various issues and they deal with them in a very professional way and are extremely caring and patient with her. She is safe and well looked after and we feel
secure in the knowledge that we can trust the wonderful team to look after her in our absence. I cannot fault the staff and the services that they offer and I cannot praise them highly enough. Thank you so much Larchfield House for taking such good care of her.

My father has been a resident for five months and he has settled in so well. He came from another care home and we have noticed a significant improvement in him since being there. The staff are all so friendly and caring and have really taken the time to get to know dad. They take very good care of
him and he has had much fewer falls since being at Larchfield (he is high risk).

My dad has been in the care home for almost 6 years over the time we have built up a good relationship with the staff. Speaking on dads behalf as he doesn't have the capacity, the staff are lovely, kind and love the job they do. Dad is always kept clean dry and warm

Review from Geoff S (Day Care) published on 18 May 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My beautiful wife has been in Larchfield House since the 17th October 2015 until now. Her needs are extremely high. She cannot walk, talk, communicate feed herself or do anything. Her cognitive needs are extremely high. I have visited my wife practically every day since she’s been in Larchfield House,
well at least 9 out of 10. Excluding the time of the Pandemic when visiting was restricted.
The care she has received from the first day has been fantastic and has never varied, it is still fantastic. I feel so grateful and privileged to have got my wife into Larchfield. I couldn’t fault it. There cannot be many more jobs more challenging than running a Care Home 24/7 and its needs, but all management and wonderful dedicated Carers do such a fantastic job. And this does not go unnoticed. Thank you so much to you all you are so appreciated.

My dad was previously in another care home but due to the deterioration of his dementia, they were unable to care for him. I am so grateful (beyond words) that Larchfield House has not only been able to take care of my dad they have managed his care as his condition continues to deteriorate. The staff
are absolutely marvelous I cannot rate them highly enough. I would recommend Larchfield House - they go above and beyond in the care of my dad.

While we know lack of staff sometimes can effect everything, so far they have managed to be able to cope with the situations arising. All the staff seem to me are friendly and only too pleased to offer us a tea or coffee while bringing mum her tea and biscuits.

Review from A J (Son of Resident) published on 25 April 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Larchfield House has provided my mother with specialist dementia care for almost two years. Whilst there have been occasional disputes with their management due to restricted access to mitigate Covid risks, I have always been pleased with their prompt responses and openness. Thankfully the COVID access
situation has improved since September 2021. The community is divided into smaller groups. This has the advantage of regularly seeing the same staff – I am always impressed that they dress smart and are courteous to residents and visitors. More importantly, they deliver compassionate care respectful of their resident’s needs. The building and gardens were redeveloped from 2020 to 2021, and I hope the gardens will be a much-used outlet for residents in the summer months of 2022. A relatives portal gives a detailed account of what happened to your family member that day – medically, socially, perhaps a note that a follow-up is needed. I’m impressed by the transparency and professionalism.

A very positive experience of Larchfield Care home. Dad is being cared for very well and we are updated on his condition and care when we visit. The portal is a godsend as it is very easy to see what Dad has been up to and how he is doing at any time of the day.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.842)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.842) out of 10 for Larchfield House 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 37 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 37 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 4.842 for Larchfield House is calculated as follows: ( (377 Excellents x 5) + (41 Goods x 4) + (12 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 431 Ratings = 4.842
  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 Larchfield House is based on 37 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 98 registered maximum number of service users is 19.6, which has been reached with 37 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.
