From viewing the home which we found by chance and the difficulties encountered trying to get mum to view the home to respite care then moving to a full-time resident. We cannot fault anything. The staff are all amazing and incredibly caring, kind and compassionate. I have complete peace of mind that
my mum is looked after and enjoying her later years in a wonderful environment.

My wife has Alzheimer's and spent two weeks respite in Layston Grove whilst I had hospital treatment. All the staff were very friendly and helpful, taking all the worry of leaving her there off my shoulders. When you walk in the home has an air of calm which puts you at ease. My wife's room was very
nice, clean and comfortable with en suite. The staff looking after her were amazing and treated her with respect and dignity, even mealtimes were carried out with great care and a good choice of food, served in a presentable way.
My wife was taken good care of and I would have no hesitation in using the home for future respite care.
We attended the coffee morning at the end of the month everybody welcomed my wife and put her at ease, a great way to keep her familiar with the surroundings for the future.
Thanks to all for looking after her so well.
Reply from Samantha Campbell, Home Manager at Layston GroveThank you so much for your wonderful feedback, we were delighted that you chose us to support your wife, and loved having her here with us. I will share your comments with my team.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum had a nasty fall and needed respite care, and went into Layston Grove in February. The management/admission team were brilliant in helping us to get her in very quickly when she was refused community care, they were very supportive and kind to myself and my brother when we were quite stressed!
The staff were all extremely kind and caring which helped Mum settle very quickly. Layston Grove is a purpose built home offering excellent facilities and is spotlessly clean. The good food and care enabled my mother to recover well. So well in fact that after 3 weeks she decided it was time to stay in residential care permanently. The only reason she didn’t stay at Layston Grove was the fact that it was too far away to have her there permanently nothing to do with the care which was fabulous. I would highly recommend Layston Grove to anyone who needs either short-term or permanent care for a loved one.
Reply from Samantha Campbell, Home Manager at Layston GroveThank you for taking the time to review our home. I am delighted to hear that Mum benefitted so much from the care provided here at Layston Grove. It is always nice to know that we have made a difference.

My husband spent five weeks in Layston Grove for respite care. We cannot fault the staff, all were very kind, respectful and helpful. His room was comfortable and extremely clean. A very nice television and ensuite. He said he would be very happy to return for respite care in the future. I had several
meals with him, especially enjoyed the Sunday roast.

My 103-year-old mother became exhausted living alone in her wardened apartment.
Layston Grove has twice proven an ideal respite opportunity to relax and recover.
I am pleased that all housekeeping (security, safety, care and consideration, food, environment, etc) aspects were well managed. Visiting
was 24/7 when staff were always welcoming and helpful.
My mother chose to spend a good deal of time recovering in bed with meals, pills and water brought to her room as and when appropriate.
She left after two weeks, recharged and ready to take on the world again.
Reply from Samantha Campbell, Home Manager at Layston GroveThank you so much for your wonderful feedback. We are glad to hear that Mum is feeling so much better and that she has benefited so much from her stay here with us.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My ninety-six year old mother has been a full-time resident of Layston Grove since July 2021. She has dementia and is unable to walk or stand without support; her condition has deteriorated, as one would expect with the natural progression of the dementia. I visit frequently and know how challenging
it can be for staff when Mum is going through a particularly difficult phase emotionally. I have been consistently impressed with the professionalism and kindness demonstrated by all members of staff in meeting Mum’s personal care needs. Mum is clean and dressed well; she loves her weekly visit to the hair salon, which is undoubtedly a highlight of her week. Layston Grove has a friendly and calm atmosphere where residents are encouraged to participate in imaginative activities. Although Mum is unable to join in with many of these, she is nevertheless included as much as is possible for her. I have the highest respect for the staff and regard them very much as friends of the family.

On behalf of my extended family and personally from my mother and I, her daughter, we wish to thank you all so much for your ongoing support, kindness and professionalism in caring for my father.
All the staff we have been in contact with have genuine compassion, are approachable and friendly which
is extremely rare to find. Also despite caring for my father they also have empathy for my mother when visiting which is so important and reassuring.
The communication between us is always up-to-date and extremely detailed. I would not hesitate to recommend to other people.

Mum went in initially for restpite care following a fall, which resulted in a broken wrist and unable to care for herself at home. She stayed for a few months at Layston Grove.
Points to note:
Very clean and fresh smelling.
Excellent staff who care for each resident's well-being and attention to
their personal care.
Very comfortable accommodation.
Excellent activities are provided regularly, including entertainment, pet visits and plenty of accessible games and exercise.
Food is generally very good, a few complaints from Mum about very spicy food.
Hairdresser very enjoyable experience for the residents.
Mum will very much miss having friends to chat with on a regular basis.
On the whole, a very good care home.
Reply from Samantha Campbell, Home Manager at Layston GroveThank you for this lovely review. We will certainly take on board your comments regarding the food and the spice levels. I am very happy to hear that Mum has enjoyed her time here with us. I shall pass your kind words on to my team.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.723)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.723) out of 10 for Layston Grove 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 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 4.723 for Layston Grove is calculated as follows: ( (224 Excellents x 5) + (20 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) + (9 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 260 Ratings = 4.723
  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 Layston Grove is based on 21 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 66 registered maximum number of service users is 13.2, which has been reached with 21 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.
