Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
As a resident here, I have completed several reviews for The Ashton. One thing I heard was that the carers, the younger ones especially, regard us residents as an extended family and as such work every bank holiday without any form of a grudge. This attitude makes for a wonderful atmosphere.
We get
superb meals which are to restaurant standard and together make this home a superb place to live.
Well done to all staff.

My long-term partner came to the home approximately 2 months ago. She has had excellent care since arriving as she has an extremely rare illness called Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). They know how to cope with her needs. Overall to date, all has gone well.

My mother moved in about six months ago. My wife and I are always impressed by the caring way not just my mother but other residents are treated. We are very impressed by the amount of activities, shows and trips out that are organised. The staff always contact me if they have any concerns, be it health
or behaviour.

Review from Angela F (Daughter of Resident) published on 22 December 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father, who suffers from Alzheimer's/Dementia, arrived at Ashton Court, having spent over 3 months in hospital in Cornwall. During the out-of-region hospital discharge and transfer process we had excellent support from the Ashton Court Deputy Manager whose help is very much appreciated. Since arriving
at Ashton Court, Dad has settled in wonderfully and is very much being treated as the individual he is. The team looking after Dad are great and many family members have been able to visit him since his arrival. Dad's room has very good facilities and is spotlessly clean. As others have said, when we visited Ashton Court for a tour we were very impressed by the evident care shown by the carers and management. After many stressful days with Dad being in hospital, so far away, we can finally relax in the knowledge that he is in a quality care home, nearby and in safe hands.
Reply from Kelly Walker, Regional Director at The Ashton Care Home

Thank you so much for your lovely review, we appreciate you taking the time to complete it. I am so pleased to hear how well your father has settled, the staff work very hard to ensure people's needs are being met with such care and dignity. We will share the review with the staff at the home.
May I take this opportunity to wish you and your family a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Review from Caroline L (Daughter of Resident) published on 21 December 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My dad moved into The Ashton Care Home in March 2023 following several falls and hospital stays, and we all knew that the time had come for him to have 24-hour care and that it was too dangerous for him to live alone at home anymore, despite daily visits from us and district nurses. We were getting
increasingly worried about him being alone at night and in the early mornings, as this was when he inevitably had his falls. He has been given the most marvellous care since he moved in, with a beautiful room looking out onto a little garden view, fabulous food and kindness in every aspect from the wonderful staff and management. There is a wonderful opportunity to join in with all sorts of events and trips at The Ashton, should he wish. When asked recently at his sixth monthly care review if there were any ways they could improve his care, he replied, "It isn't possible! You are all wonderful!" I think that speaks for itself!

Review from Cheryl P (Daughter of Resident) published on 11 September 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I pass by and have seen the residents and carers together and heard their chats. Things like 'Did you see such and such on tv?' and 'You're still smoking then?' Just normal chat and not talking down to the residents. On my tour, the manager impressed me by knowing every residents' name and had a chat
with them. This spoke volumes about the way this home is run. My dad moved in, every carer knew him and spoke to him about his likes and dislikes. He is so happy and settled. In my dad's words "It's like living in a Warner Hotel but better because they help me to get showered and dressed. They take away my washing and when they return it they hang it up in the wardrobe." He loves that everyone knows his name and is extremely kind to him. We love it because we are greeted by smiling, friendly staff who seem to really like our dad. Always ready to chat to him. The atmosphere is warm, caring and friendly. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending The Ashton.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.777)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.777) out of 10 for The Ashton Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 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 4.777 for The Ashton Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (173 Excellents x 5) + (37 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 215 Ratings = 4.777
  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 The Ashton Care Home is based on 18 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 72 registered maximum number of service users is 14.4, which has been reached with 18 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.
