  • Collingwood Grange Care Home, Camberley
Collingwood Grange has been converted to offer a variety of individualised care options for both long-term and short-stay care in nursing, residential and dementia as well as palliative, convalescence and Parkinson's care.

Situated in the picturesque area of Camberley, built in the 1900s, the home benefits from being set within three acres of land, giving residents a great outdoor living space that they can enjoy with residents alike, friends and family. There are ample seating areas so that the natural surroundings can be taken in at leisure.

Collingwood has several living rooms and dining areas, as well as a number of dedicated quiet areas. Each decorated to a high standard and often providing some great homely features that give this home a really quaint and relaxed feeling. These rooms also offer the opportunity to have family and friends over for special occasions or any day that the resident wants. All bedrooms provide en-suite facilities and a 24-hour call system.

This home has a beautiful light and airy dining room where fresh and seasonal dishes are served, with any personal tastes or dietary requirements accounted for and recorded in the care plans. If residents prefer to eat within their rooms this is also respected and will be arranged with staff.

The staff work to discover what residents enjoy doing and the home's social calendar is organised around those interests.

Review from Susan B (Daughter of Resident) published on 21 November 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
An exceptional home, mum loves the staff. In fact, they are wonderful. So kind and caring from the management, nurses, cleaners and the maintenance man. Nothing is a problem for them. The home is spotlessly clean, mum has a lovely well-kept room, they have a beautiful garden for the residents to sit
in, in the summer.
Fantastic meals mum has put on weight there is so much variety and she chooses her menu her self.


Mum loves the trips that are arranged for her, they are so good, they have got mum to join in where she wouldn't be for.
Collingwood Grange is a very happy place, if any one is looking for a home for a relative this is the home I would choose.
I would like to end by thanking everyone who looks after my mum for us.

My mother has been in Collingwood Grange for six years. She has been extremely well looked after in that time. The carers and nursing staff have always been kind and shown compassion and care at all times.

My wife was a resident here for the last few months of her life. The facilities are excellent and very clean. The staff were lovely, kind and attentive. The on site nurses gave the best care and looked after her with dignity and love. I would highly recommend this home.

When we were asked to find an end of life care home for my mum we initially rejected Collingwood Grange based on a report from 2015. However we we undertook to view the facilities anyway. The minute we got there it just felt right. The room, was far superior to anything else we had viewed so mum moved
in. Mum loved it here. She was treated with respect and love, the nurses and carers were attentive, supportive and genuinely lovely people. Facilities clean and lovely garden. I would not hesitate to recommend this home to anyone.

Review from Linda S (Wife of Resident) published on 18 May 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I had a need to find a new nursing home for my husbands respite stays, for this year as well as two periods during the year. I wanted a slot at the end of December 2016 into January 2017 to visit family in India. I was looking for a home that would take a booking for a year ahead. Luckily a friend visited
her friend, who was living at Collingwood Grange, she spoke to the manager who suggested he may be able to help us. I visited the home and immediately knew it would work. The atmosphere and the positive approach of everyone I met, gave me confidence. When I visited with my husband he felt the same. He has just completed a successful 2 week stay. He will return in the autumn and then in late December.

Review from Hilary W (Niece of Resident) published on 16 May 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
During my uncle's 15 month stay (until his death on 19/04/2016) I could not have asked for better care for him from all the staff. In particular the senior nurse. He was always treated with care and dignity even though he had a catheter through his stomach and also had dementia. He was treated as one
would treat a favourite uncle, what more could I ask for! Also the admin staff were extremely helpful to me and deserve a mention. It was a pleasure to go into the home and to know it would always be clean, safe, welcoming and friendly. Having had experience (with other family members) of 7 other care homes, I can say that Collingwood Grange is by far the best.

Review from Don A (Relative of Resident) published on 29 April 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My relative was cared for for 15 months. He was suffering from increasing dementia but was always cheerful and praising the care and attention given by the staff. We visited twice a month and were always impressed with the staff on duty. Nothing was too much trouble. If there were any issues they were
immediately sorted quickly and calmly. We were responsible for our relative under a court of protection order and the home always rang us with any ongoing medical issues. They kept us fully informed at all times. We had experiences of 7 other care homes and I firmly believe Collingwood Grange was by far the best.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have been very satisfied. The very caring staff in attendance at all times, especially as some patients can be a little trying when suffering loss of memory and Alzheimers disease. In my opinion I thought the top floor was well managed. I did sometimes think that the food was rather bland. My mother
was offered sufficient liquid I am sure. The staff showed great patience always. However I did think that the fees were too high for a 'not for profit organisation', so I was told at the beginning of her stay.

On my first experience of a 1 week stay in the Collingwood Care Home I must admit, I was a little apprehensive - but I must say how very welcoming and happy week I had, everyone was so kind, considerate and very helpful. Nothing was too much bother, I have been invited to 'pop' in any time for a "cuppa"!!
Bravo
to all the staff. Many thanks.

I entered Collingwood Grange at a very 'low ebb' without being aware of why or how, I soon felt so safe and secure in the knowledge that I had but to call if I was nervous or unsure of myself.
The staff are al so efficient and so very pleasant. The home is tranquil, bright, immaculately clean and a
very good kitchen; the refreshments throughout the day are a joy.
Collingwood Grange is an absolute credit to its staff and administrators.
Thank you all.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.391)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.391) out of 10 for Collingwood Grange Care 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 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 17 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 4.391 for Collingwood Grange Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (157 Excellents x 5) + (39 Goods x 4) + (19 Satisfactorys x 3) + (7 Poors x 2) + (11 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 233 Ratings = 4.391
  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 Collingwood Grange Care Home is based on 17 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 75 registered maximum number of service users is 15, which has been reached with 17 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.
