Ashworth Grange is a very welcoming place with lots of kind staff. They have made my grandma feel at home and at ease, especially in somewhere new. They provide many activities to service users, which are engaging and very nice.
Reply from Terri Kidd, PR Executive at Ashworth Grange

We know it can be difficult moving to a new home, and residents may be a little nervous, but we do everything we can to ensure new residents settle in quickly and happily and make sure there is plenty to do to keep them busy. Thank you for taking the time to send this lovely review.

I enjoyed my visit to see my mother-in-law who has dementia. All the staff were extremely helpful and pleasant. The home is immaculate and she has a lovely room. She enjoys the food. Her hair had been washed and set nicely. I was impressed by the general layout and organisation of the home, also the
calm atmosphere.
Every time I telephone my mum-in-law for a chat the staff are always pleasant and happily put me through to her. They are polite and helpful.
Reply from Terri Kidd, PR Executive at Ashworth Grange

The care my mother-in-law received from all members of staff during her 4 years of living at Ashworth Grange was second to none, they were kind, caring support nothing was any trouble, we can never thank them enough for all they did for her she enjoyed her time there and all activities they did plus

Visit Mum regularly. Always feel welcome. Follow the home on social media and know that Mum has plenty of activities she can take part in. At the moment, we are at the Wednesday morning coffee morning. This is a very good social event for the residents. It gave me peace of mind knowing my mum was being
looked after while I was on holiday recently and someone contacted me while away to let me know she was ok.

My wife and I have been to visit Mum today my sister was part of the band that was entertaining the residents, friends and family members. What a lovely afternoon. The staff all dressed up full of laughter and fun even when it rained. MY wife and I call at least once a fortnight as I work in London.
and every time I feel happy Mum is here the care and support is excellent. I can only say thank you for looking after her.

My husband is here because he has dementia and I am unable to look after him due to illness. Although I would prefer (100%) to have him home, he has been looked after at Ashworth Grange Care Home better than I hoped for. The staff are so caring and considerate and understand his needs so well. Thank
you all so much.
Reply from Terri Kidd, PR Executive at Ashworth Grange

Whilst we are very sorry that you are unwell, we are pleased that we can help both you and your husband by giving him all the care he needs so you can concentrate on your own health and spend quality time with him when you visit. Thank you for the lovely review.

The care home is lovely, staff are always friendly and seem to treat residents with respect. The only downside on this visit was that it was terribly warm which was making my grandma feel unwell.

My mother has been at Ashworth Grange Care Home for over eighteen months.
Prior to entering the home, she was nervous and not taking care of herself but she is now perfectly settled and feels safe and secure. She is also eating more regularly.
All the staff are great but special shout-out to one
member of staff - Mum's eyes light up when she's around.

Thank you for your lovely review, it’s great to hear that your mum is settled and thriving. We will do our best to make sure the staff member knows how appreciated she is – we certainly appreciate all our team; they are the best!

Ashworth Grange is a well-run care home. The staff are very helpful and supportive when times are not easy for family or the resident. As a resident, you are welcomed and made to feel comfortable and when we leave from visiting, we feel happy and comfortable leaving my father in their care - this to
me says it all.

My dad spent almost two years at Ashworth Grange before he passed away this month. As a family, we can’t put into words the thanks we have for the staff. An end-of-life care plan was put in place in consultation with the family. We visited and stayed with Dad all day and some nights. His care was outstanding.
We were offered all meals whilst with him and given wonderful emotional support as well.
Dad had wonderful care during his time at Ashworth Grange. The staff are compassionate and caring. It’s not just a care home; it’s a loving, warm family.
Thank you.
Reply from Terri Kidd, PR Executive at Ashworth Grange

Firstly, we are so sorry for your loss; your dad was a well-loved resident and is sadly missed. Thank you for allowing us to support him and you; the relationships made in the home are truly special, and it’s a privilege to be able to be there for families. We will remember your dad fondly, and please don’t be a stranger; you are part of the Ashworth Grange family too, and you are always welcome.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.702)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.702) out of 10 for Ashworth Grange 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 64 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 64 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 4.702 for Ashworth Grange is calculated as follows: ( (538 Excellents x 5) + (168 Goods x 4) + (25 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 731 Ratings = 4.702
  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 Ashworth Grange is based on 64 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 64 registered maximum number of service users is 12.8, which has been reached with 64 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.
