From the very first step into Aspley House, we, as a family, felt our father (step-day, husband and grandad) had arrived at the best place we could have wished for from day one until the day he passed. The most perfect place to have en-of-life from an awful Pancreatic Cancer but all made easier by all
the amazing staff and team at Apsley House. We are so grateful as a family.

From my first visit to Dad at Apsley House, all the staff have gone above and beyond to make us feel welcome and treat the home as our home. From the time end-of-life care started, they have made sure we have been informed of all decisions. He was treated with the utmost dignity at all times, and although
his final hours were the hardest, they were also made the easiest by the love and care shown by all the staff.

A most excellent home. Staff were always friendly to residents and visitors. The personal care was regular and carried out to a high standard. I had full confidence that my wife was in the best hands. The building was clean and tidy, and the food was to a good standard.

My brother went to live at Apsley House in July. Straight away we were made to feel welcome. He was well cared for and he loved the outside area by the fountain. My brother passed away on 1st October 2022. They made his last few days peaceful. I was with him over those days and I was also well looked
after.

The care given to my mother is without fault. She seems as comfortable as is possible and always clean and tidy, which must be difficult as she is immobile and doubly incontinent. Very happy we decided to move Mum into Apsley House - 2 and a half years ago.

I have been impressed with everything about Apsley House. Despite my Dad (resident) being difficult, the staff have all been excellent, very attentive, and patient! The overall facility is lovely, in a great location and well run, yet with a welcome informality and friendly atmosphere.

The care provided in this nursing home is second to none. It has a very homely feel about it, with its resident cat and home-cooked food. The staff treat my husband with courtesy and respect and the nursing care is excellent. The activities provided for the residents is interesting and varied. The management
of this home is highly effective - I cannot recommend it enough.

You are an amazing and incredible team! We are eternally grateful for all the love, care and kindness you showed our Mum at her end of life. Mum was very happy at your residence and just what she needed for a short time of relaxation and contentment. Living with glaucoma definitely put a huge strain
on her very capable self. Many thanks again......Superb!

I would like to thank the management and staff for caring from my Mother from February 2020 to July 2020 when she passed away, being very well cared for. Everyone was so helpful and kind and sometimes Mum would leave her phone on by a mistake after we said goodbye and I could hear the staff caring (and
having a laugh) with Mum and they wouldn't have known. Mum said the food was fantastic too. Thank you for looking after our lovely Mum (I live in Australia and it was very reassuring that I could be in touch 24 hours a day). The manager in charge is just amazing.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.793)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.793) 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 4.8 out of 5 from 30 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 30 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 4.793 for Apsley House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (291 Excellents x 5) + (51 Goods x 4) + (11 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 353 Ratings = 4.793
  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 30 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 30 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.
