I find the staff very friendly and helpful and always ready to help. They are very caring to all residents and try to keep them entertained and happy by talking and having a laugh and joke with them. They always try to help with meals and try to encourage them to eat.

My wife has been a resident for the last six years plus. Although there have been staff changes, all the frontline staff, nurses, carers and domestic have always behaved in a very professional and caring way. They all have my complete confidence.

I am pleased to say that my wife is looked after very well at Ashlynn Grange Care Home. Always dressed nice and clean. I cannot fault your staff and carers in the Harvester Unit, they all do a wonderful job and work very hard in a very demanding unit. Also, they are very sociable with me. I speak as
I find people and this is my true opinion of your staff and carers. Credit to them all, which they deserve.

My father was in hospital before being placed in Hayward House, Ashlynn Grange.
He couldn't walk or stand without falling.
With help from the excellent staff, he is walking with two people supporting him.
He tries to stand holding on to furniture.
Someone always comes to help him.
The staff talk
to him as well and he tries to communicate with them.

My husband has been in Hayward House, Ashlynn Grange for four weeks.
In less than two weeks he improved so much he was walking with two people supporting him and is gaining confidence daily.
Before he was in bed or in an armchair.
The staff are so friendly and patient, encouraging him to walk.
It
is incredible the progress he has made.

The family would like to thank all at Ashlynn Grange for the loving care and attention they have given our mother over the past year. The management and staff have been like an extended family to mum and us dealing with her sensitively in a very hard working environment and with so many working demands.
The space for the residents at the home is an advantage for the pacers; good sized bedrooms with bathrooms, conservatory, dining and sitting room. We were informed of developments towards mum's passing and had access to her whatever the time. It was a huge relief to us that mum was cared for so well.

On behalf of my entire family, I would like to express our sincere gratitude and admiration for the wonderfully sympathetic and tender care received by our mother upon admission to the Ashlynn Grange facility in June 2018. The entire staff displayed such a constant tenderness and respect during a difficult
time that we will never forget you.
Reply from Mandy Jackson, Operations Director at Ashlynn Grange Care Home

My grandmother seems very happy here at Haywood House. She enjoys the food and likes the communal areas. I have seen her involved in various activities such as painting and drawing; she has her work displayed on the wall which is especially nice to see. She says that she feels safe and secure here,
so I am satisfied with her quality of care.

Review from Annie H (Daughter of Resident) published on 18 June 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Although the Home needs some decorating and general refurbishment, the staff in the Hayward Unit were excellent.
Mother was a resident from October 2017 to May 23rd, 2018 and during that time we felt very comfortable that the care she was being given was appropriate to her needs. Certain carers and
managers seemed to go above our expectations and dealt with her in a most understanding, empathic and caring manner. We were regular visitors to the unit and were always made to feel welcome and able to share in the provision of care provided to her. Our only concern was that maybe the carers needed more support, as occasionally they seemed very short staffed. Overall, my mother spent her final days with people whom she trusted and was comfortable with. Making her final weeks a less traumatic time for her. We thank them all.
Reply from Toby Swallow, Sales & Marketing Manager at Ashlynn Grange Care Home

Thank you for your review. I am very sorry for the loss of your mother.


We always have healthy staffing levels throughout Ashlynn Grange, but do appreciate that at times when staff are engaged with other residents behind closed doors that it may appear as though there are not visibly enough staff around.

We found all the staff to be friendly, respectful and professional at all times. Any issues that arose were dealt with promptly. We found the staff to be supportive to the resident and family. Communication was excellent by staff. The financial invoices and statements were unclear making it very difficult
to understand. We found there were ample services available , hairdressing, chiropody treatment and general entertainment.

From the moment my mother entered Ashlynn Grange, she was made to feel special. Words can not say how grateful as a family we were for the care she was given. Not only were her physical needs taken care of but you showed her compassion, empathy and love.


The staff went above and beyond in their care

not only for her but for her family as well. They did everything possible to ensure her time there was both as comfortable and enjoyable as possible, nothing was ever too much trouble. Thank you.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.685)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.685) out of 10 for Ashlynn Grange Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 44 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 43 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 4.685 for Ashlynn Grange Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (380 Excellents x 5) + (113 Goods x 4) + (23 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 517 Ratings = 4.685
  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 Ashlynn Grange Care Home is based on 43 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 156 registered maximum number of service users is 31.2, which has been reached with 43 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.
