Our mother has been a resident of Ghyll Royd Nursing Home for nearly three years and has celebrated her 99th, 100th and 101st birthdays there. On each occasion, she was made to feel really special. My husband and I chose Ghyll Royd after visiting seven other nursing homes. Walking in was such a relief
and we immediately felt the welcoming homeliness and efficiency, backed up by the then manager’s description of their priorities and aims. Our more recent experiences have only confirmed those initial feelings and we continue to feel confident in all aspects of her care. The staff are so pleasant and available, extending their empathy to me and other family members, as well as our mother. I would be the first to accept that our mum isn’t the easiest of residents but their patience and gentle coaxing ensure she has the best of care and that she is content in her room surrounded by her belongings.

My mother has lived at Ghyll Royd for over 2 years and has been well looked after by the caring staff. I looked at a lot of homes before Ghyll Royd. It was a relief to find a light spacious home with gardens in a good location but it was the staff who decided it for me. Within minutes of sitting down
with the manager, I knew this was the right place for my mother. It's been a relief to know she is getting a good standard of care as her needs increase and she has been as safe as possible during the pandemic. Relatives are kept informed of how the home is managing Covid and the staff are supportive, friendly and professional.

My father had lived at Ghyll Royd for the past 4 years. The care that my Dad received was of a very high standard. Staff treated him as an individual at all times and were caring, considerate, respectful and open. Dad and I were always included in his plan of care and any concerns or worries I had -
which were very few - were always answered and addressed immediately if necessary. We all worked as a good team with happy times. There wasn’t just Dad, the team were very caring towards his family over the years. Supporting us through the ups and downs of his illness. The last covid year has been very hard however the team at Ghyll Royd did their best in a very difficult situation for myself and his granddaughters to maintain some form of contact with my Dad and finally being able to go back into his room to visit was wonderful. Dad passed away a few weeks ago and I shall always be grateful to the Ghyll Royd team for their exceptional level of care maintained to the end of Dad’s life.

Reply from Steve Edgar, Home Manager at Ghyll Royd Care Home

Thank you for taking the time to write a review of our service, and for your kind and supportive words which are very much appreciated by myself and my colleagues.
It is gratifying to know that we were able to provide your Dad with good care over the last few years and that you and your family also felt looked after.
Helping people to have a peaceful and meaningful end to their lives is always a privilege, and I am pleased we were able to ensure that you had close contact with your Dad in his final days.
We wish you and your family all the very best.

The home is well run and very clean, the rooms and common areas are spacious and nicely decorated and there is a nice garden with tables and chairs. I have known the staff over many years they are always welcoming and friendly and my family member is well cared for, they have been wonderful during the
difficulties of COVID. I always feel there is a homely atmosphere. It is difficult to answer the question on safety and security because I know nothing about fire regulations. Judging by the proficiency of the home in other matters I assume they are excellent.

My Stepdad who has very advanced dementia has been a resident for quite a few years now and can honestly say I have always felt fully confident that all his needs are being met, both physically and mentally. He is always well cared for, clean and comfortable whenever we visit and the care home is clean,
welcoming and calm at all times. We are an hour and a half away so this is especially reassuring to know that he is being well cared for and safe. The communication is really good too from the team and always prompt and professional. The staff seems to know him really well too. He has stayed the same weight or thereabouts all this time which is a massive credit to the whole team as he needs to be fed and is fully dependent on staff for food and drinks. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts and from our Mum who is no longer with us but would be very reassured too that her husband is safe and cared for.

I just wanted to pass on my thanks to the staff who have made a difficult time for our family that bit easier. We moved my dad into Ghyll Royd on the 29th Dec after only making the initial contact on the 26th. It’s obviously been a challenging time, with the additional complications of the covid restrictions.
We feel totally reassured that Dad is receiving really special, personal care, which is obviously so important to us. One member of staff, in particular, has gone above and beyond to communicate with me and answer our many queries. She has sent some lovely pictures and messages which we have really appreciated. It’s obviously only very early days for all of us, but so far, the staff have really helped Dad to settle in and have supported us as well.

Reply from Steve Edgar, Home Manager at Ghyll Royd Care Home

Thank you for your review of Ghyll Royd Nursing Home.
All the feedback we receive is useful and helps the team to maintain and improve upon the care that we deliver to the residents and their families.
It is especially gratifying when someone takes the time to tell us we are doing a good job, and your very supportive comments are much appreciated.
It is often a challenging time when someone is choosing a nursing home, and your words may help people faced with that choice to feel reassured about the kind of service they can expect from Ghyll Royd.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5

This review is not about the frontline carers and nurses at Ghyll Royd who cared so compassionately and kindly for my Mum during her years at the nursing home. My concerns are with senior management. From charging our family 'top-up' fees, even though she is fully funded under CHC to woefully poor communication.
The poor management has never been so evident as during the Covid pandemic. The only communication our family got routinely were sporadic brief texts with Covid death stats and updates of whether Covid was in our out of the home. When we suggested a more interactive communication forum involving staff, residents and families might be considered - at a time when we had no access to our Mum, we were stonewalled by senior managers. There has been no forward-thinking strategic plan for covid-safe visiting. In mid-November, they are only starting to build an outdoor visiting cabin. Until then, garden visits with vulnerable residents were in the rain and cold.

A nursing home is all about the staff and their rapport with patients and family. The staff have created a wonderful haven - especially in this difficult CV19 pandemic - where my mum was carefully, professionally cared for, despite her dementia and frailty. Prompt communication and clarify of explanation
also reassured we family. Close link to the local GP surgery was also a reassurance. Back to the staff - they were like Mum's extended family - as evidenced, when we moved her to be with us in Dorset, by the tears. Thank you.

Our impressions are of dedicated, calm, and professional staff efficiently caring for residents with mental illness and mobility problems. We were regularly informed by the nurses as to why different medications were being prescribed by the doctor. When my wife was refusing to eat, the staff never gave
up and tried all sorts of ways and ideas to try and entice her to eat and drink. The staff’s patience, friendliness and kindness made my wife’s four months stay extra special by going above and beyond in the excellent care, understanding and support they provided. They were always caring and understanding towards our family too, being most professional, kind, and supportive especially on difficult days. When we telephoned, the person answering the call always talked knowingly about my wife and her condition at the time. In conclusion, a Big Thank You “Keep doing what you are doing as we know how vital your roles are in helping your residents and their families in the hardest times of life”.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.791)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.791) out of 10 for Ghyll Royd 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 42 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 42 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 4.791 for Ghyll Royd Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (394 Excellents x 5) + (88 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 488 Ratings = 4.791

  • 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 Ghyll Royd Care Home is based on 42 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 76 registered maximum number of service users is 15.2, which has been reached with 42 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.
