Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has been a resident at Apsley House for over 5 years now. While it was a struggle to adapt from lone living to community living, the change in her was amazing. She is well looked after, she is reminded to take her medication and is supported with lots of available activities to nurture her
personal living. You could not ask for better support for a parent than Apsley House. The staff are supportive and caring.

The care given to my mother in her final years I believe not only gave her the best of care and enjoyment of life, but also allowed her a dignified and gentle end of life.
The Apsley house team are exceptional and supported our family and mum in her last days.
We will always have wonderful memories.
Thank
you Apsley team for all you do everyday, you make a real difference.

Since mum's admission to Apsley House she has been treated with respect and compassion by all the staff at the care home. We as her family have felt included in her care at all times. There is definitely a holistic approach to care for both resident and family. We know our mum is very well cared for.
Thank you to all staff at Apsley House.

When my father deteriorated rapidly and could no longer be cared for at home Apsley House Care Home came to our rescue. The staff admitted him with efficiency and the care they gave him throughout his short, end-of-life stay was second to none. Everyone who we had contact with was kind, caring and ensured
Dad's last days on earth were pain-free, comfortable, dignified and peaceful. We could not have done this without you, thank you all.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We moved Dad to Apsley House Care Home in mid-November 2024 as he needed full-time nursing care during what we knew would be his final few months (he died in mid-January aged 95). The home and all the staff have been absolutely brilliant throughout. Dad was treated with love, care and dignity and the
support provided not only to him but to my sister and myself has been first-class. It was always a pleasure to visit, the home is friendly, efficiently run, open and airy, warm, clean and the staff always had a smile and were welcoming and empathetic. Dad could not have been in a better place or better cared for and my sister and I will be eternally grateful to the whole team that Dad's final few months were spent there. Thank you to all of you, you do a difficult job brilliantly and have made a real and positive difference.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My sister died at Apsley House Care Home on the 5th of December 2024. She went to Apsley House in January 2023 as the care home she had lived in previously could no longer cope with her increasing fragility and falls. Apsley House staff on arrangement have been wonderful with her during the two years
she was with them. They managed to maintain a light-hearted friendliness at the same time as scrupulous attention to the nursing and medical needs of my sister.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Impressed with the location, having travelled a long way and not sure what to expect, I was immediately shown to my aunt's room by a very courteous and friendly nurse. The room was bright and full of all the equipment she would need at arm's length. During my visit nurses and the chef would appear regularly
to check on her.
Everything was done to make her feel safe and loved.
My aunt was happy and comfortable and I left with the feeling that she was being very well cared for.

I must say that from the day my dad entered into Apsley, he was catered for with first-class care. His room is bright and airy and is very comfortable. Every single member of staff has been wonderful and have looked after my dad with professionalism and support. Obviously, the day we brought Dad here
was very emotional and upsetting, but we know that he will be cared for, loved and offered a very supportive team to look after him. My thanks go out to the manager and her team for their continued support in looking after our lovely dad. Keep up the good work.

I am unable to comment on the activities and food and drink options because my husband was in need of full nursing care.
The service for the three weeks he was in the home before he died was excellent. The staff were professional but so very caring and respectful.
His room was bright, cosy and very
welcoming.
On the day of his death, we were so reassured by the supportive atmosphere and the presence of such capable staff.
We cannot fault Apsley House and they gave my husband such a peaceful end.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.636)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.636) out of 10 for Apsley House Care 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 27 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 26 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 4.636 for Apsley House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (237 Excellents x 5) + (62 Goods x 4) + (13 Satisfactorys x 3) + (7 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 319 Ratings = 4.636
  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 Apsley House Care Home is based on 26 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 35 registered maximum number of service users is 7, which has been reached with 26 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.
