My brother received nursing care at Ash Lodge for 3 months. High praise for the care my brother received in every respect. Nothing was ever too much trouble, staff always cheerful and smiling and cared about the relatives too. My brother passed away at Ash Lodge but it was in a well cared for and dignified
way. No hesitation in recommending Ash Lodge 100%

My late brother was a resident in Ash Lodge Nursing Home last October. Although he was only there for a very short time, I cannot praise the staff enough for all the care they gave him in this final chapter of his life. They showed him such kindness and respected his dignity at all times ensuring all
his needs were met. We were able to visit at any time and I cannot thank the staff enough for all the support and advice they gave us at a very distressing time.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My beloved friend was at Ash Lodge for 10 months . He sadly passed away in February . He came into care after being very poorly in hospital and not being well enough to go back home . I had one wish that he could be placed in a nursing home where he would receive good care and Ash Lodge fulfilled this
wish . Leaving your beloved home is difficult for anyone but Ash Lodge made this easier for him. He was welcomed warmlyI. visited him regularly and observed the staff to be kind and caring to him . They treated him with dignity and respect. They were welcoming to visitors as well as approachable if we had any concerns . It's the little touches like the receptionist fetching his paper everyday that made such a difference to him . They made a difficult situation easier . His room and the other areas of the home were always spotless and smelt clean. I shall always be grateful that we picked this home for our dear friend and would definitely recommend it to others .

My cousin was transferred from hospital to A.L in June 2024. This was done very quickly & I was apprehensive that it may not be appropriate but my husband & I did an impromptu visit - no appointment, no notice but the staff on duty were welcoming & answered all of our questions. Cleanliness is outstanding.
To date the care has been excellent, the staff are always on hand & professional. There has been an ongoing issue with food as my cousin is coeliac but word with the manager & within 20 minutes problem solved. As a visitor I am always made welcome.

Overall the home and staff are very caring and obliging to needs and are always helpful where possible. Daytime staff are exceptional. Nighttime staff are poor & only do the bare minimum. Food is poor & random and we choose to buy our own. It would be ideal if staff wore name badges.

There is often a social event that my friend can join in. All the staff are very friendly, professional and a credit to their profession,
taking care of all residents and going the extra mile to make sure the residents are cared for and happy. There are plenty of staff on duty & my friend & I can always speak to someone if we need to.

My father was 94 when he moved to Ash lodge and had a whole array of medical problems, that would have presented a challenge to anyone looking after him, but he was always shown great care and treated with respect and dignity and I observed this first hand as I was a frequent visitor. The hygiene standards
are excellent and all the staff were always so kind, and helpful if I had a query or problem concerning my dad. I am so grateful he spent his final year in the care of the staff at Ash Lodge and have no hesitation in recommending the Home to anyone who is looking to place their loved one in a home where they will be looked after and well cared for.

Our friend has been at Ash Lodge for three years. He's happy there, well looked after. It's an impressive place.
Every time we visit we are moved by the kindness and friendliness of the staff and the thoroughly competent way issues are dealt with.
Usually, all the doors of the rooms are open and we
can see and smile at the other residents as walk down the corridor. Our friend told us that one of his carers wanted him to write her a poem. This is what he wrote -
'Oh carer, our caring angel,
Here in Ash Lodge, our home,
Your grateful charges thank you for all the love you've shown'.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mom was admitted to Ash Lodge Care Home in April 2023 following a fall at home, suffering a head injury. After months in the hospital no improvement in her mobility and showing no signs in her capacity to self-care (whereas she was always independent) the decision was made for her to be referred
to Ash Lodge Care Home. To mine and my brother's surprise, our mom was in the best care environment for her needs. The staff and management are the best team, caring, friendly, compassionate, helpful and kind bunch of people I have ever met. Knowing I can sleep at night, knowing my mom is in safe hands and being cared for by this amazing team is beyond compassion for human life and their caring dedicated nature. I will be forever grateful to Ash Lodge team for making my mom's stay with them feeling loved and cared for in her final years.

Dad was transferred to Ash Lodge from hospital. The care and understanding of Dad’s needs are amazing. All the staff do their best to make him comfortable and his needs catered for. We weren’t prepared for this step for Dad, however more than happy so far with Dad's care, he has now been with them for
four weeks.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.851)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.851) out of 10 for Ash Lodge Care Home with Nursing 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 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 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 4.851 for Ash Lodge Care Home with Nursing is calculated as follows: ( (217 Excellents x 5) + (28 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 249 Ratings = 4.851
  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 Ash Lodge Care Home with Nursing is based on 22 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 70 registered maximum number of service users is 14, which has been reached with 22 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.

David

David Carpenter

Job Title: Deputy Nurse Manager

David began his care journey in 2007, working as a care assistant in Solihull. Wanting to make more of a difference to his residents' lives, he blossomed into a senior care assistant and then went on to qualify as a registered nurse in 2014. Having a passion for palliative care, he then joined the Birmingham Hospice in Selly Oak. He achieved a Bachelor's degree in Adult Cancer Care, earning him the title of Palliative Nurse Specialist.
