Excellent care and kindness demonstrated at all times and nothing is too much trouble. Staff seem to really cate about the patient's wellbeing, the food is very good and fresh and it provides peace of mind during such distressing times.

My father was only in The Grange Nursing Home for just three weeks. In that short time I cannot fault his care. He was able to return his dignity right up until the end.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Aunt resided at The Grange Nursing Home for five years.
The staff here became her second family, she was well cared for. I was always kept informed of any changes to my Aunt's condition and was always made welcome when I visited her. When my Aunt passed away, staff came in on their days off to pay
their respects, my aunt would have appreciated that and as her niece, I can't thank the staff enough for what they did for her. I will certainly miss my visits to The Grange.

The care at The Grange is out of this world. In all of my 40 years of business, I have never met staff and management so devoted to the well-being of their residents. They are all very polite, helpful and very caring. In all of the 16 months my wife was there everything was done for her comfort and
wellbeing. I have been very impressed with them all.

Mum received great care from the staff, she was always treated with dignity and respect. We particularly appreciated the palliative care, especially at the end of mum's life. Her last few days were comfortable and peaceful.

My mum was admitted for end-of-life care. She was with you for just over 3 weeks, during this time she received excellent care and the staff were all friendly when we came to visit. She had a lovely room overlooking the garden and, whilst she had wanted to die at home, this was the next best thing.
Thank you.

My wife was admitted at very short notice and late in the evening. Everything and everyone was very welcoming. That's how it stayed for approximately two months of her stay. All the staff are very grateful for the care given to her and us.

The Grange cared for my father for 14 months until his death. The care and attention he was given was always professional, friendly and caring. The staff are always excellent, and it was a great comfort knowing he was getting the right care.

As she was only there until she passed away, I can't give some ratings. The staff were friendly, helpful and caring. The home, other than the drive and car park (which was a mixture of water, gravel and mud) was very good.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My mother was in The Grange Nursing Home from spring 2023 - 1st January when she passed.
My father was in for nine weeks and passed in September 2023.
They were both cared for with dignity and understanding. My mother was quite a one for changing behaviour. The carers were excellent and the food
was very good.
My only wish is that there had been more activities.
They both had a good death, warm and comfortable in loving surroundings.

Mum was only there a very short time, but she was treated with care and attention, even though she was unaware of anything around her. The room, though small, was cheerful and fresh-smelling. The staff were kind and friendly and always made us feel welcome.

My father entered the home from hospital. He was made to feel welcome straight away, although he took a while to settle. He always received excellent care for all his physical and mental health needs. He enjoyed the company of the other residents, so loved the afternoon activities, especially bar day.
He became very fond of many of the staff. Their attention to detail was 100%. right up to his final day.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.632)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.632) out of 10 for The Grange Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 14 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 4.632 for The Grange Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (105 Excellents x 5) + (43 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 155 Ratings = 4.632
  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 The Grange Nursing Home is based on 14 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 26 registered maximum number of service users is 5.2, which has been reached with 14 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.
