I am writing this review not just for the last month but for the last two years. If I ask any member of staff for help in any way at all they immediately do whatever needs doing and they are always very pleasant and courteous. I could not wish for my wife to be in any other home because after visiting
many (20+) homes I know we picked the right one. Langfield is a great place. I have never had reason to complain in two years of visiting my wife and I visit her almost every day. The staff (from top to bottom) are fantastic to say the very least. I have already recommended Langfield, not only for the above reasons but because this building is purpose-built for people with health problems and that is another plus. So I will now sign off with a big 'thank you' to all who work and care at Langfield.

In August 2017 my 93-year-old Dad's dementia was getting worse and he was hospitalised due to challenging behaviour and for his own safety and that of others. It soon became clear he wouldn't be going home. I am his only child and live 250 miles away! After two disastrous admissions to another local
care home, both of which involved the police being called and him nearly being sectioned, we happened upon Langfield and I met with the then manager. He put me at ease during what was an incredibly stressful time and agreed to meet my dad in the hospital for an assessment, after which he told me he thought Langfield could meet my dad's needs. The rest, as they say, is history. He moved into Langfield in November 2017 and for me, the experience has been hugely positive. The staff are all incredibly friendly, kind and caring. My dad seems very calm and content, even though I don't think he actually knows where he is! LANGFIELD IS A VERY GOOD PLACE.

Reply from Ali Wiseman, Care Home Manager at Langfield Care Home

Thank you, for your glowing review! It’s great to hear that both myself and our team were able to help you, during your stressful ordeal. We work extremely hard to try and ensure that both, our residents and their families are as comfortable and as happy as can be, so hearing this feedback is great.


Kind Regards,

My mother has been in Langfield for 3 years in all that time she has never had a bed sore, even though she is either in a wheelchair, armchair or bed. My mother is nearly 96 and has never been a wanting person and is quite happy to sleep quite a lot, so I don't know whether the activities are for everyone
but they do seem to have a good selection of them for those who want them. All the staff are very caring and listen if you do not have a slight grievance which is not very often.
The home is very clean and graded 5, my mother is always well dressed and clean, she never smells even though she is doubly incontinent. The food is not fancy, but wholesome and mostly homemade. Her room is spacious with a toilet and sink (en-suite) I would definitely recommend Langfield.

My mother has been a resident of Langfield Care Home for approx. 2 years. I can honestly say that the staff are lovely. Just one big happy family and always made to feel welcome. My mom had to be admitted to Langfield Care Home due to having quite a few falls. I feel my mom gets treated really well
and feel a lot happier knowing that she is being looked after. She gets along with all the staff as do we. But she feels they need to get more permanent staff on nights so they can feel more at ease with them like she does with the day staff.


Although my mom doesn't eat much of the food or get involved in many of the activities from what I see when visiting, they both look really good. I would not hesitate to recommend this care home.

Reply from Brendan Gaffney, Home Manager at Langfield Care Home

Many thanks for taking the time to leave a positive review for Langfield, we are always pleased to receive feedback and are pleased that you have found the experience for both you and your mother a good one. We strive to provide the best care and attention for each of our residents and to ensure smooth and healthy transitions, and we are glad that this has been the case for you. We appreciate that the inconsistency of night staff can be a little disconcerting, we work hard to recruit the right staff on a permanent basis to provide more stability for our residents and will hopefully have this situation resolved soon.

My husband has been in Langfield almost a year. It has been a very difficult time for us both but the staff have tried to make things as comfortable as possible. The home is bright and welcoming especially the dining/lounge room. The food seems wholesome, looks appetizing and is plentiful. The staff
are approachable and any queries or concerns are listened to and usually addressed quickly.


Social events are well organised and the staff do their utmost to make sure these events are enjoyable without pressurising residents to join in if they prefer not to. It would be good to have more regular input from "outsiders" willing to lead exercise or singing sessions to stimulate residents.

My nana received palliative care in langfield, the way she was looked after in their was fantastic. The staff are absolutely wonderful and love and respect every single resident, I know this because myself, my mum and sister spent lots of time here in my Nanna's end of life. My nana was very happy here
and was welcomed with open arms by the team of angels that looked after her. The entertainment team are brilliant also, putting on events for residents and how they engage with them to ensure they enjoy themselves. The food is freshly prepared and my nana really enjoyed her meals. We would definitely recommend this home to anyone. Definitely the best home in Middleton. Keep up the good work.

My sister is quite happy at Langfield she is only 56 but has health care needs. She is treated with dignity and respect, also with understanding as she is only young. I see the other residents treated with care and respect. My only issues are that some nights they are short staffed and have to wait
for agency staff to arrive so people cannot be taken to bed or toilet at their request.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.955)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.955) out of 10 for Langfield Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 40 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) 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:

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

    The Average Rating of 4.955 for Langfield Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (449 Excellents x 5) + (19 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 469 Ratings = 4.955

  • 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 Langfield Care Home 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:

    • 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 54 registered maximum number of service users is 10.8, which has been reached with 40 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.
