I have always been happy for Mum to be at Ladymead, it is like having an extended family. I know Mum is in safe hands. During this horrible time of Coronavirus, it is even harder, as we cannot visit our most precious loved ones.
True to form, Ladymead came up trumps, and we can video call Mum at arranged
times.
I think this shows the true love and care that Ladymead is all about.
Thank you so much.

Mother has spent nearly two years at Ladymead. Her overall condition has been stable, and despite a few minor adjustments; have been well. I cannot fault the love and care the staff have spent on Mum, but we have never regretted her taking residence at Ladymead.

Thank you so much for the care you gave to my Grandad, as a family, we can’t thank you enough for all you did for him during his time with you. We found it super difficult not being able to see him during these strange times, but we hold much comfort knowing he was so well cared for.
Nurse kept us
updated on how he was doing all the time, even using video calling, and we really appreciate the communication we had at all times.
Thank you again for looking after our dear, much loved, Grandad.

Thank you to all the wonderful staff at Ladymead for taking care of my father-in-law. As a family, we cannot thank you enough for your care and consideration, especially during such unusual and difficult times. You kept us updated and in touch (using technology to video call), going above and beyond
what was expected. We were all so impressed with the homely feel at your home and the fact that the staff really do care. This is filtered down from the brilliant manager to the nurses and staff who together work as a fantastic team in what can be, at times, very challenging. It is with sadness that my father-in-law lost his fight to live but we are happy to know that he was made as comfortable as possible and the staff cared for him and were there to the very end, which we dearly thank you all for.

What a wonderful home with such fantastic and caring staff. During these difficult times, they are making it so much easier to keep in touch with Mum with video calling. It is so vital that we are able to talk and even better to see each other. The staff are so busy but take the time to ensure we have
the best contact possible with our Mum. She is so happy and settled and this is down to all the lovely staff who take such good care of her; not just in these uncertain times but every single day. Big shout out to them all.

Ladymead has a lovely homely feel. The staff genuinely care and treated my father with kindness and dignity throughout his time there. When I visited, I was greeted with warmth and the staff felt like an extension of our family. When my father sadly reached the end of his life, I and the rest of the
family were very glad he was at Ladymead - the staff ensured he was as comfortable as possible and were very supportive to us all.

My mother was admitted to Ladymead Care Home approximately four years ago. My mum had complex and emotional needs, and I can honestly say that each and every member of staff was unbelievably wonderful. They became like family to my mum and me, and from where we were before she was admitted, to the way
she relaxed and felt safe at Ladymead, was outstanding. I cannot recommend Ladymead enough.

My mum was terminally ill with bladder cancer. She had been admitted to a hospice in February 2019. The doctors thought she was going to die but she came back out in March 2019 and went to Ladymead Care Home in Wroughton. From the beginning, she was treated with respect and dignity. The staff and management
were caring and supportive to all her needs. They showed great compassion and care. I have no hesitation in recommending them. They were amazing. Thank you.

I always felt a warm and caring atmosphere whenever I visited Mum at Ladymead Care Home. Everyone worked as a team, looking after mum's physical needs and also her mental needs too, showing empathy, patience and time spent making her comfortable and feeding her at the end of her life.
She lived there
3+ years showing how well she was looked after. The entertainment was varied and interesting and her diet and likes were addressed too.

Both my parents have been in Ladymead care home, in total 6 1/2 years. The care has been exceptional. The carers are extremely patient; the food was all homemade and individual dietary requirements catered for. There are lots of activities organised for anyone wishing to take part. Sadly both parents
have passed away but I would not have wished them to be in another care home. This was the best choice.

Ladymead cared for my mother as perfectly as can be for nearly three years. We researched more expensive homes in London but none of them offered the degree of care and love that Ladymead does. I could go into details but the boxes below should indicate. I might single out (and for an MBE) the occupational
therapist. But everyone else was wonderful too.

When a loved one has to go live in a care home, you fear the worst for them, but I have found it is a new chapter in their life.
Ladymead brings out the best in their abilities, encouraging them to be part of a family group. I cannot fault the staff there, they show true emotion towards each resident,
trying to make their lives as good as possible. Nowhere is ever going to be perfect but circumstances dictate that our loved ones need to reside in care homes and from what I have seen at Ladymead it is very good in providing a safe, happy and caring home.

Mum only spent a short time in Ladymead but the level of care during that time was exceptional and faultless.
The staff were always patient, very caring and compassionate. I always felt confident mum was receiving the best care possible from all staff who are clearly very dedicated to the job they
do. All staff, management included were always supportive of the family's needs and always gave mum as much time as necessary to ensure she was adequately cared for without any rush.
I can't suggest any room for improvement. This is an exceptionally well run care home with very dedicated staff at all levels.
On behalf of all of my family many thanks.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.783)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.783) out of 10 for Ladymead Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 30 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.783 for Ladymead Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (287 Excellents x 5) + (59 Goods x 4) + (9 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 355 Ratings = 4.783

  • b) 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 Ladymead 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:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 30 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
