We have found Rothsay Grange to be a caring, friendly and welcoming home for Dad and previously Mum. It means a lot to know that they have received, and continue to receive, great care.

I have found the staff and management very kind compassionate and friendly when either looking after my wife or assisting me and keeping me fully informed as to how she is getting along.
I am completely happy with the way my wife is cared for.
She wants for nothing which puts my mind at rest.

Reply from Jessica Salway, General Manager at Barchester Rothsay Grange Care Home

Dear John, thank you for your very lovely review. We consider you and your lovely wife part of our happy family here at Rothsay and glad to hear that you feel the same way. We look forward to welcoming you back in properly as soon as the COVID-19 restrictions allow.

Mum has been at Rothsay Grange Care Home for nearly two years and care there has been very good. The staff are always friendly and helpful and they really do look after mum. Mum enjoys it there too and she always has something good to say about the carers. She has her "favourites" too, who she often
talks about when I speak to her. During the COVID pandemic, Rothsay Grange have been excellent in their care and support of residents and their families as well.

Reply from Jessica Salway, General Manager at Barchester Rothsay Grange Care Home

Thank you so much for your lovely review! We are so glad to hear that mum is still happy living with us here at Rothsay Grange. We also really appreciate your patience with us during these unprecedented times and despite remaining COVID-19 free throughout have needed to adhere to the restrictions to maintain everyone's safety. We are all really looking forward to welcoming back our relatives properly as soon as we are allowed.
Stay Safe!

My husband received exemplary care during his stay at Rothsay Grange Care Home. He was not always the easiest of residents but was always treated with care and kindness. I was always kept updated if his condition deteriorated and his care plan was regularly reviewed with myself. The Manager's door was
always open, if I had any concerns, no matter how small. I could relax knowing he was in safe and caring hands.

Reply from Jessica Salway, General Manager at Barchester Rothsay Grange Care Home

Dear Pam, thank you very much for your kind words. It was an absolute pleasure looking after your husband and we really do miss his cheeky smile and witty jokes!
Once Covid-19 restrictions have lifted, please don't be a stranger, we would love to see you again.

My husband was resident in Rothsay Grange for a short period, from beginning of July until 22nd August when he passed away. During that time, I have only praise for all the staff, my husband's care was excellent. There is a warmth at Rothsay, a real family atmosphere and I am so grateful for the love
and kindness shown to myself during a more difficult time. I have no hesitation in recommending Rothsay Grange.

Reply from Jessica Salway, General Manager at Barchester Rothsay Grange Care Home

Thank you for your kind words. It was a pleasure to have your husband here even for the short period of time, it was also nice to get to know your family and friends. Wishing you and your loved ones all the best.

My wife has been a Memory Lane resident since July 2018. The kindness and care she has received has been excellent and made me realise that Rothsay Grange is the right place for her. I see how caring and friendly everyone is every day during my daily visits. With activities and/or entertainment every
day, it's more like a holiday camp! My wife recently celebrated her 60th birthday and the care home allowed me to hold a large scale party on the premises. Excellent! Everybody and everything is excellent.

Reply from Emily Kington, Admin Assistant at Barchester Rothsay Grange Care Home

Thank you for your review. We really appreciate any feedback about our home, especially when it is this good. We thoroughly enjoyed your wife's birthday party, and now we can't wait for her 70th! I'm glad that your family and friends felt welcome here also. Kind regards, Emily.

The staff were caring and really friendly. In the face of worsening circumstances, they did their best in maintaining morale and the interests of the user.
I felt that their care was genuine.
The bedroom was a good size, had a view over the garden area and bathroom/shower facilities were ensuite,
modern and excellent.

As soon as you enter Rothsay Grange you can tell it is a happy place to be in, either residing or working and this comes from the top. From the first day we made enquiries into my father entering the care of Rothsay Grange, we have experienced friendly and helpful staff who have gone out of their way
to make his transition as pleasant as possible. It is not easy to move into care, especially when before you had an unhappy experience, but the staff have given us all the help possible, to make my father as settled and safe as possible. Thank you.

Reply from Aimee Hibdige, Administrator at Barchester Rothsay Grange Care Home

Thank you for such a wonderful review about our home. We understand how difficult it is to move a loved one into care and we want to make the experience as easy and settling as possible even more so when someone has had a bad experience.

My mother-in-law's care was excellent. Everything was well organised, staff were efficient, caring and capable. Despite caring for dementia sufferers, staff remained good humoured, thoughtful and kind. Entertainments on offer were regular, well planned and tailored to residents' needs and requests.
Rooms
are light, bright and a good size with ensuites.
Memory Lane provided lovely links with the pas and little touches like photos on doors helped people feel at home.

Leaving the mother who we love in a nursing home because she has dementia is like leaving a small child in boarding school. Will she be happy? cared for? well fed? make friends? sleep at night? The answer to all these questions is yes if she is going to Rothsay Grange. From the beginning of her stay,
my mother was clearly in expert, loving hands. All staff understood the dementia, treating her gently and with respect. They knew her needs and met them. And she had some fun. We will always be grateful to them.

Reply from Aimee Hibdige, Administrator at Barchester Rothsay Grange Care Home

Dear Janet, Thank you for your wonderful review. It was a great pleasure in caring for your Mother, and we all enjoyed meeting and getting to know her wonderful family. She will surely be missed here at Rothsay Grange.

From the very first moment I walked into Rothsay, I knew we had made the right decision to place our mum here. Rothsay has not failed to impress from that day to this. The levels of care, the food, facilities and the wonderful staff that work in memory lane, they made mum's move and settling in very
easy for her. Mum has, without a doubt, been happier at Rothsay and I think this is largely due to the fact that your wonderful staff have settled her beautifully.

From the first time we visited, there was a lovely feeling about this home and a home is what it felt like. The room was lovely, clean, well decorated and spacious. The staff were both caring and polite. There was plenty of room to move about with lovely touches placed strategically around the hallways.
Thank you for looking after mum from the time she was there.

My grandmother came to live here from another home after she was no longer happy there and they couldn't manage her dementia. The staff here were so helpful and couldn't do enough for us when we visited to have a look around. My grandmother was happy and content, well cared for and always looked smart.
The carers and nurses cared for her with so much compassion - we couldn't ask for anything more! Her room and all other areas were always clean and she always enjoyed the entertainment she managed to attend. Sadly my grandmother passed away recently but the kindness and sympathy expressed to us by the home was a great comfort and we are so relieved to know that she passed away while in competent and caring hands. I really could not express how delighted my family and I are with the treatment my grandmother and ourselves, received from the home. Amazing people and a lovely home to be in!

Reply from Aimee Hibdige, Administrator at Barchester Rothsay Grange Care Home

Dear Emily, Thank you for such a lovely review. Your grandmother was a delight to care for, she always put a smile on many of the carers and visitors faces. She will surely be missed here at Rothsay Grange.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.867)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.867) out of 10 for Barchester Rothsay Grange Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 21 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) 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:

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

    The Average Rating of 4.867 for Barchester Rothsay Grange Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (208 Excellents x 5) + (32 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 240 Ratings = 4.867

  • 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 Barchester Rothsay Grange Care Home 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:

    • 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 66 registered maximum number of service users is 13.2, which has been reached with 21 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.
