Review from Jill W (Niece of Resident) published on 16 October 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I chose this home for my uncle after looking around 3 homes in the area. Aslockton Hall stood out and felt like the right place for him to have as his home, the staff were all friendly and supportive to the residents and the bedrooms and communal areas were lovely and welcoming. The outdoor garden space
is amazing and with my uncle being a retired gardener I knew he would enjoy going out. I would definitely recommend people to look at Aslockton Hall for their loved ones.

Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
At first, all the staff were lovely, kind and friendly. But then once I complained about a staff member the entire English Care Staff turned on me and wouldn't speak. My elderly mother was on end of life there, and after complaining the owner threatened me and I had to get the police involved. The Indian
care team are probably the best thing at this home, who remained professional until the end. In nearly 20 years of working in the care sector, I have never known such a dysfunctional home, and the owner should remain being a butcher because he lacks person-centred skills.
The home isn't clean and I visited on one occasion to find vomit still on the carpet from the day before, there was only one cleaner who actually cleaned the room my elderly mother was in. No doubt I will be getting a letter from the owner but I have a Section 5 public order against him. If your relative is on end of life there I suggest frequent visits at different times of the day.
Reply from Faye Handfield, Business manager at Aslockton Hall

Thank you for the review which highlights the strengths of the home, the friendly, professional staff and the beautiful rooms we have. Aslockton Hall has a very robust complaint management process which is led by our highly trained senior staff, who are incredibly proud of the home they run. Given the nature of the complaint raised by this person, the staff escalated the matter to the highest authorities, only to find that there was no evidence or substance to the claim made. Despite the investigation being closed, we were very sorry to learn that the client remained unhappy and decided to pursue this with the owner of the home. Having almost 40 years’ experience in care, the charming and very caring owner felt there was nothing he could offer to pacify the person and so gently assured them we would happily continue caring for their loved one without prejudice. The home prides itself on being professional and caring in equal measure, and is proud of the Good CQC rating held.

My father in law is very hard work at home. His wife is sick and it is an impossible situation. Aslockton Hall has looked after him and his needs exceptionally well. The staff have been fantastic.
Reply from Faye Connolly, Marketing at Aslockton Hall

Thank you so much for the very personal feedback.
Every resident's needs are managed individually through carefully formed person-centred care plans.
Finding care is a worry, as with anything you want your family member to be happy and well looked after regardless of their circumstances. With many years of experience in care, our team excel when it comes to managing a range of care needs and soon have residents comfortable and happy in their new environment.
Thank you for your honest feedback it's good to know we have helped.

Review from P J (Regular Volunteer) published on 28 February 2020 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
As a retired staff nurse, finding a suitable home for my Father was paramount. Although a large building, the atmosphere is incredibly friendly and staff very caring - yes there is always the problem of staff sickness as with any home but management goes to extraordinary lengths to make up the numbers
at short notice to supply good agency carers to ensure patient care is kept of the highest quality. Bathrooms, bedrooms are spotless. Meals are adequate. Perhaps a little repetitive but service is good. However, more attractive to me than anything are the wonderful grounds. The gardens are just beautiful but unfortunately not used to their full advantages. More BBQ's, please.
Reply from Faye Connolly, Marketing at Aslockton Hall

Thank you for the very informative feedback, the BBQ's are a highlight of the diary which I am sure that with a little persuasion we could be seeing more of! The grounds certainly are an asset to the home and we would love for them to get more use.
The care is excellent and the staff are very attentive. It is very kind of you to take the time to praise the home and celebrate its strengths.
Many Thanks

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I have visited here most days since January 2016, and I find it welcoming, calm and sweet-smelling. The owner and directors maintain a high standard of furniture and cleaning. Maintenance is good and the gardens well kept. The permanent staff are efficient, competent and friendly, agency staff are wither
excellent or doubtful. The kitchen provides a varied menu and staff try to ensure that residents are well fed and take on sufficient liquids. Rooms are clean and the laundry service is good.

My father came to Aslockton Hall for respite in early 2019. We were delighted with the standard of care. It is a very warm and friendly place and the staff were wonderful. He had a lovely room with en-suite facilities and the food was excellent and plentiful. If we ever need the services again, we would
definitely come back. We were worried about leaving him but he was looked after wonderfully. The gardens surrounding the Hall are beautiful and peaceful. Thank you.
Reply from Faye Connolly, Marketing at Aslockton Hall

Many thanks for the thoughtful review. We love Aslockton Hall and are so pleased to see the little things are noticed. Certainly, we know what an anxious time it is leaving a loved one in any sort of care environment. It pleases us immensely that your father settled with us well and has been comfortable in our care. Many years of experience make a huge difference when it comes to care and we are pleased to have shared this with him. Many thanks for your kind words.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Aslockton nursing home is the home in every sense of the word of my mother. Approaching my mothers fifth year in residence, my mother has been cared for with dignity, kindness, thoughtfulness and humour. My mother has many friends at the home, staff, residents and even people who are visiting other
residents. The owners and staff are outstanding and I count us extremely fortunate that my mother and myself can have confidence that my mother’s best interests are being served. As I visit daily, the home has become my home from home and no matter what time of day I visit, quiet order and friendliness are evident.
Reply from Faye Connolly, Marketing at Aslockton Hall

Thank you for the very thoughtful feedback. At Aslockton Hall making the place a home for our residents is the very essence of our purpose. It is so heartwarming to know that the attention we give is noticed. The residents are all part a large family and their families become an extension of this. None of this would be possible if it were not for our fabulous staff who we value hugely. Thanks you again for taking the time to review us so kindly.

I have been completely satisfied with the care from the nursing side and with help from the management. Dietary needs have been excellent throughout, especially when she is not feeling too good.
Reply from Faye Connolly, Marketing at Aslockton Hall

Such a lovely review. It certainly demonstrates that our care goes much further than medication alone. Where nourishing food and genuine care is given, we find our residents flourish. Your auntie's beautiful room overlooks the garden and she is a very much loved member of the Aslockton Hall family. Thank you for your support.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The staff at Aslockton Hall were fantastic. They got to know my father over the two years that he lived here and he was incredibly well looked after. They met his needs incredibly well, they made him feel at home and made adjustments to all sorts of things to meet his needs and requirements. The thought
and kindness of the staff during his end of life time was second to none. He was kept incredibly comfortable, his dignity intact and there was a real feeling of fondness towards him and absolute care. Thank you.

Review from Sandra D (Daughter of Resident) published on 13 October 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father' s end-of-life care at Aslockton Hall was excellent in every aspect.
All the staff, carers and nurses were kind, professional and showed great compassion and humanism. They treated him with dignity and respect, yet personalised their interactions to ensure that he maintained his cheeky sense
of humour and felt completely at ease with them all. The Aslockton team are empowered in such a way that they all felt comfortable being themselves and engaging with my father as people, rather than as employees which was very gratifying to witness.


As a family, we were kept informed at all times, welcomed on every visit and involved in all decisions relating to my father's care. The cleanliness, catering, grounds and clinical care at Aslockton was superb.
Our dog was just as popular with all the staff as he was with my father!


These little extras exceeded all expectations and certainly make Aslockton Hall a home from home, rather than simply a residential nursing establishment.
Thank you.

Reply from Faye Handfield, Business Manager at Aslockton Hall

Thank you, Sandra and family, for such a positive review. End of life care is a very emotional journey, but I am grateful you chose Aslockton Hall to care for your father. He will be missed.

Staff are almost without exception: caring, thoughtful, patient, prepared to go the extra mile. Home is very good with regards to hygiene and toileting. Drinks are regularly provided and assistance/prompting given where necessary. Dignity is almost always properly maintained (exception - one carer calling
residents "her" and "them" loudly in front of everyone.)
The grounds/gardens are a lovely asset with encouragement to use them at all times.

My husband has dementia, he has been cared for at Aslockton Hall for two years. He receives care and consideration from willing and pleasant staff who respect his preferences, he is not coerced. Given the nature of his illness he is as comfortable and content as can be. This is 100% better than my
experience of a previous 'care home' whose self promotion was convincing but a travesty of my expectations.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.658)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.658) out of 10 for Aslockton Hall 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 42 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 40 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 4.658 for Aslockton Hall is calculated as follows: ( (365 Excellents x 5) + (101 Goods x 4) + (13 Satisfactorys x 3) + (7 Poors x 2) + (5 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 491 Ratings = 4.658
  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 Aslockton Hall is based on 40 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 62 registered maximum number of service users is 12.4, which has been reached with 40 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.
