The staff at Ledbury Nursing Home could not be kinder or more caring. They are all friendly and helpful and made my mother feel safe and supported. They gave time to chat and answer our questions. We will always be grateful for the care they took of her over the past three years.

My mother was admitted in late February after having been in two different hospitals.
Ledbury Nursing Home did all they promised to maintain her pain levels and keep her as comfortable as possible with respect and kindness. The staff are caring and polite to both mum and any visitors or family. They
ticked all the boxes and Mum endeared herself to them.
Reply from Jane Pye, Home Manager at Ledbury Nursing Home

Thank you for your heartfelt review. We're so pleased we could provide your mum with the comfort, care, and respect she deserved. It means a lot to know she felt at ease with us, and she certainly left a warm impression on our team.

My dad loved his week in Ledbury Care Home. He and my mum were moving into assisted living and the week of respite meant he was well looked after, safe and not stressed. His room was lovely, my mum had nothing but praise for the care he received and spoke positively about the meals and the staff. Thank
you so much.
Reply from Jane Pye, Home Manager at Ledbury Nursing Home

Thank you ever so much for your kind words. We're so pleased your dad felt safe and well cared for during his stay, and that your mum had such positive things to say. It truly means a lot to the whole team.

My step-dad spent two weeks in Ledbury Nursing Home (respite following a short stay in hospital).
From the first telephone conversation to the farewells on his last day we were both treated with kindness and understanding and warmth.
Staff always made themselves available and answered any queries
or requests straight away. Thank you so much.

My family are very happy with all aspects of Ledbury Care Home. The staff from management to support staff are respectful to residents and relatives at all times, in what must be a difficult situation at times as residents have lost their independence.

Overall the home gives my mother a good service. However, there have been some issues that have lowered my marks. Lift faulty and not repaired within a reasonable time. Not enough staff, meaning they are rushed off their feet. No communication when there are issues that affect the residents i.e. No
kitchen staff more than once. My mum really likes living here and gets on well with all the staff, just a few minor things to sort out to make it 100%.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Ledbury Nursing Home and in particular the manager were excellent in arranging next day respite care for my father who we could no longer care for at home due to his end-of-life needs. As soon as I rang to make the enquiry he swiftly responded to my request, ringing me back to confirm a room would be
available the next day and making all the necessary arrangements. The staff at the home and in particular the head nurse were very helpful, kind and caring the next day when my father was transferred to the room. I believe my father would have received excellent care in the home if there had been a chance for the staff to provide it. I could not fault the manager and the staff we came into contact with and want to thank them for making it as smooth as possible during a very difficult time. The finance team at Shaw Healthcare have also been very helpful during this period.

My father was taken into the home 4 weeks ago and has settled very well and quickly. The manager has been very approachable to discuss things and ask questions where we felt a little in the dark about the situation. He always gives me the time and support I need at what has been a very emotional time.
The staff are all lovely and asked what sorts of things my father likes and any interests etc. So that they could interact with him as a companion not just a nurse or carer.
The home has always been clean and the meal menu varied.

My mother was in the Ledbury Nursing Home for a month from 22nd December following discharge from the hospital after fracturing a vertebra.
The home is small and personal, with a relaxed, friendly atmosphere. The staff are wonderful, and my mother had nothing but praise (every day) for their care,
kindness and professionalism. The food is very good - home cooking, well presented and served with great consideration.
Ledbury is very lucky to have such a special place.

My 96-year old mother was a resident at Ledbury Nursing Home from September 2021 until late February 2022. She had always dreaded losing her independence, but the kindness of the manager and staff at the nursing home enabled her to accept this huge change in her life, and she settled in quickly. Mum
had nothing but praise for the wonderful nursing staff who did all they could to keep her comfortable as her health deteriorated further. My sister and I were touched by how caring and compassionate all the staff were, not only to Mum but also to us. We were able to be with Mum every day during her final week, and her passing was dignified, calm and pain-free. We will always be grateful to the manager and all the staff at Ledbury Nursing Home for their kindness and support.

Ledbury Nursing Home has a lovely atmosphere; warm, friendly and professional.
My mother's partner has recently become a resident there and so is settling in in these challenging times. The caring nature of the home really shines through. With the spacious lounges and dining areas for social gatherings
there are ideal places for residents to spend time. I worked as an activity co-ordinator for several years at the home years ago! Some of the staff are still there and now there are two activity coordinators. I can't imagine a better nursing home to be in. Being placed in Ledbury near cafes, the theatre and in Ledbury community in general is also a plus. I can't recommend it highly enough

Our mum is very happy at Ledbury Nursing Home. When we visit or telephone she tells us how lovely everyone is. The introduction of the Skype calls was a godsend during lockdown, thank you, and their continuation is very helpful.
My sisters and I have seen an improvement in Mum's health and well being
since arriving in 2020.


We would like to that all of the staff for taking so much care of our lovely mum.

My mum was a resident at this wonderful establishment from November until today when sadly she passed away. Please don't think badly of me for writing this review within such a short period of time since mum passed, but I just had to share my feelings concerning the level of care and tenderness that
the guys and girls in the nursing home have shown to firstly my mum, and to myself and my wife. They could not have done anything more. They are so compassionate. So very thoughtful and understanding. They made mum's end of life care a very comforting experience. These people are a credit to the nursing profession. I cannot thank them enough for their support throughout.

My father has been a resident here for several years now and I cannot recommend the staff and facility highly enough. The staff are extremely professional yet highly caring and have gone out of their way in these exceptional times to look after their residents' mental and physical wellbeing. I live

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.494)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.494) out of 10 for Ledbury Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 14 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 4.494 for Ledbury Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (101 Excellents x 5) + (48 Goods x 4) + (15 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 166 Ratings = 4.494
  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 Ledbury Nursing Home is based on 14 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 36 registered maximum number of service users is 7.2, which has been reached with 14 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.
