My only complaints are that there is a poor choice of food and residents are often left alone with no one watching over them.

Thank you for your comments which I would be happy to discuss when you next visit your Mum.

When I spoke to the home manager I instantly felt relaxed and finally listened to.
Dad when for 2 weeks respite at Langdale and every one made him and us feel relaxed and welcomed.
Behind the scenes, they really helped with setting up social services, his medication and issuing him with a mobility
frame.
I would and have mentioned this home to other people to recommend it.

Over the past few weeks, Mum has had a bad cough, but the carers have really spoilt her. She's had breakfast in bed some days when not feeling too grand.
Other days she's been well looked after in the communal lounge.

My step son has been at the care home for several years now and would recommend this home, as he has been taken very good care of. The staff are very helpful and it has been the best care home he has ever lived in.

Extremely good care from the care staff, they are always polite and respectful when dealing with my father. His overall health has improved during his time at the Langdale facility. I think the home could benefit from a lick of paint, some of the rooms and communal areas look a little tired.

I cannot fault the care, consideration and time given to my stepfather whilst in Langdale. His dignity was maintained throughout his stay and the best recommendation I can give is when we asked him how he felt about being in Langdale and he said 'My dear, if you reach the stage in life when you have
to come to one of these places, I couldn't be anywhere better'.

Staff all really friendly always say hello and always offer tea or coffee on the tea round.
Good food. Always try and sort out any queries if possible. Good activity programmes and entertainment. Lovely garden.
Would like easier internet access i.e generally Wi-Fi not different suppliers for each
room
(Sky etc)
Reply from Bethney Kelly, Registered Provider/Partner at Langdale Nursing Home

Thank you for your positive feedback. With regard to the Wi-Fi to the Garden Rooms we are trying to sort out the best system for the whole building at present and hopefully we will have some options at the beginning of the New Year.

Although my period of contact with Langdale Nursing Home was short, my sister-in-law was very well looked after. Although ill, she felt safe and comfortable and liked the staff. I felt her needs were attended to and nursing care was very good. When she passed away all arrangements were attended to promptly.

Very friendly and very good with my father. With all his needs and the care he received was very good.
Lovely staff, they made his stay with them very good. It was his home, not just a nursing home. That's what they told him on arrival and it was very true.

I have been visiting Langdale for over 10 years on behalf of the local Parish Church for the last 3-4 years. I have noticed a marked growth in the empathetic care for the residents. There is a high ratio of staff to residents and emphasis on mental stimuli for those capable of enjoying it.
In summer
they are encouraged to sit in the garden in a shaded spot where simple games are played. Recently, this month, I have witnessed the gentleness and tenderness of patients in the final stage of life. The ratio of staff to patients is very good and the whole home is immaculately clean.

Because I am younger, I prefer activities on a one to one basis our garden therapists supports me with board games and computer, I would like Wifi in my room but I can get it in the lounge. The garden therapist takes me shopping when I need clothes or shopping and recently he too me to the cinema and
that was very nice. I like my food and Langdale has made every effort to facilitate me changing meal times to suit me when I have visitors. I would like more privacy I do not like staff contributing to my conversations with relatives but I do not mind them listening, my visitors are here to see my not them. My rooms is good as it allows me to move freely on my disability scooter. I have had several concerns which have been dealt with by the management punctually.

Following a major stroke my husband spent the last 2 years of his life at Langdale. He was happy there and I cannot fault the care and attention given to him. The end of life care given to him in his final days was excellent, their care extended to the family too, welcoming us at anytime of day or night,
and supporting us through the difficult times. Nothing is too much trouble for them, and the rooms and gardens are maintained to the highest standard. I have no hesitation in recommending Langdale to anyone.

Finding a good care home in which you trust to place your relative is a very stressful experience. Thankfully Langdale Nursing Home is a care home in which I have the utmost faith and know that the care they give my dad is excellent. My dad is very happy and content at Langdale Nursing Home. He is well
looked after, fed wonderful wholesome food, always clean. There is entertainment and activities for him to join in with if he so wishes. Residents are treated with respect and dignity and the staff are very caring, both medically and pastorally. The ambience is one of a large family, not of a clinical institution. Visitors are always made to feel welcome and included. I would highly recommend Langdale Nursing Home.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.349)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.349) out of 10 for Langdale Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.4 out of 5 from 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 9 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 4.449 for Langdale Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (66 Excellents x 5) + (25 Goods x 4) + (14 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 107 Ratings = 4.449
  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 4.9 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Langdale Nursing Home is based on 9 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 = 3.9
    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 39 registered maximum number of service users is 7.8, which has been reached with 9 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.
