I was in Ashworth Grange for two weeks in May and found the home clean and airy with most members of staff pleasant and obliging. The cook tried to purchase requested items of food for individual residents and the hairdresser worked very hard during her two-morning visits. However, there were boring
mornings with no activities and the film each week was a DVD of archaic choice. The food only satisfactory had very little fish or roast meat on the menu and practically no fresh fruit was provided.

Reply from Terri Kidd, PR Executive at Ashworth Grange

Thank you for taking the time to leave us feedback, we value all feedback. We absolutely take on board any comments about our menus and are pleased to confirm that we have a newly appointed kitchen manager and after liaising with residents, has created new menus including both fish and roast meat. As you say, if a resident makes a request, we will aim to oblige and as such the films shown in our cinema room for Saturday matinee are chosen by the residents themselves. Thank you again for your review, we are very pleased that overall, your experience was positive.

My dad has been visiting Ashworth Grange for the last couple of years for respite care to give Mum a rest every few months. The staff here are exceptional and really do care. They are welcoming, helpful and go above and beyond for both their residents guests and family visiting. As a family, it really
does give us peace of mind that Dad is being well cared for. The rooms are lovely and spacious and bright and clean.

Warm and welcome on arrival. Nice and light airy feel with lovely decor. Love the personalised door, nice and colourful. Plenty of facilities, we visited the cafe for coffee morning, how cute!
All staff seem happy and and talkative, very clean, immaculate and homely. Smells lovely (doesn't small like
other nursing homes I visited). Can see time and effort been applied.

Reply from Terri Kidd, PR Executive at Ashworth Grange

Thank you for the lovely review, we work hard to ensure we are not like other care homes and we like to think we are a cut above the rest from our decor and facilities right up to our fabulous staff. We are glad you agree!

When visiting my mother-in-law, she's usually well dressed and cared for. She's happy and only occasionally in r bad mood, Everyone is kind and caring when dealing with her. We only have occasional problems with false teeth. Otherwise no problems, We wouldn't want her anywhere else. Excellent entertainment
too.

My Auntie was a resident at Ashworth Grange from just prior to Christmas up to the 11th of February. We cannot speak highly enough of the staff, condition of the rooms and premises, the service was really first class and in the short time my Auntie was with you all the family were so pleased and relieved
that we found somewhere for her to spend her last few months where she was cared for and looked after. Cannot thank you enough.

Reply from Charlotte Jackson, Customer Care Administrator at Ashworth Grange

Thank you for your lovely words and we are so very sorry for your loss, but it’s lovely to hear that we could ease your mind a little in her last few months and make sure she was comfortable and looked after. It was lovely that your family were able to visit regularly and that you were impressed with what you saw.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.709)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.709) out of 10 for Ashworth Grange is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 75 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 75 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 4.709 for Ashworth Grange is calculated as follows: ( (638 Excellents x 5) + (197 Goods x 4) + (27 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 862 Ratings = 4.709

  • 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 Ashworth Grange is based on 75 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 64 registered maximum number of service users is 12.8, which has been reached with 75 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.
