Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Overall I think Ashdown is a very well run establishment. The staff are attentive and caring and very pleasant & helpful whenever I visit allowing me flexibility in visiting times. I've been kept informed of my mothers health issues with phone calls whenever necessary. Most importantly my mother is
generally very happy. Obviously the most important factor.

I have noticed that all the staff here have been very helpful and professional. Everyone here has a lot to do everyday, but still staff here look happy as well. My mum has been well taken care of and looks to be fairly content, on each occasion I have been able to visit.

Dad is so well cared for at Ashdown. He is always nicely dressed and personal care is fantastic. We have visited larger homes but prefer Ashdown as it's like one big family and a special shout out to the activity dog who really makes the resident's day. The new activity person is doing a brilliant job.
The summer BBQ and Christmas party are amazing. The chef is wonderful all year round.

Mum has been very well cared for since being in Ashdown.
Her needs are catered for. The staff are brilliant, and as a family, we are kept informed of any problems that arise with Mum. It helps to have peace of mind in very difficult circumstances.

I'm so very delighted by the standard of care received by my mother at Ashdown. The staff really care and have a nice relationship with her. They are kind, patient and highly attentive to all of her needs. They treat her with a great deal of respect and compassion. She is very fond of them. It is such
a relief to know she is so well taken care of. She is very happy living at Ashdown.

My father is extremely well cared for by all the staff, he's treated like a family member, Ashdown is very homely and we have no concerns or worries. My sister and I can relax in this knowledge, seeing a video of him playing football in the garden with another resident and carer was so heartwarming.
The
food is excellent and we're looking forward to the summer barbeque.

Ashdown Nursing Home staff are wonderful, extremely caring and professional. My mother was in another care home previously and I can see that she is much better cared for here at Ashdown - cleaner, sleeping better, clean clothes etc. Rooms are bright and cheery and kept spotlessly clean.

After my sister was refused by one of the nursing homes it was so nice to meet a very pleasant owner/manager and staff willing to cope with my sister. The rooms are very homely and clean, entertainment in the main dining area plus TV. Altogether a very caring place to be with caring staff.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.899)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.899) out of 10 for Ashdown Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 19 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 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 4.899 for Ashdown Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (205 Excellents x 5) + (23 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 228 Ratings = 4.899
  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 Ashdown Nursing Home is based on 19 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 40 registered maximum number of service users is 8, which has been reached with 19 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.
