My husband has been to Ashworth Grange around 5 times after being at another care home for 11 years. He comes around every 6 weeks for a week's respite to give me a break. The home and staff are lovely, very professional, caring and nothing is too much trouble. They ring me to reassure me and as he
is a very private person they totally understand and treat him with respect and great care.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My dad has been here for 2 1/2 years now. He is happy, cherished, well cared for, and stimulated. The carers are warm and caring and treat my dad like family. The home itself is always clean and smells nice. I wish there was a better system for visiting rather than a first come first served basis and
I wish I could bring my dog into the home to see my dad - he loves dogs and this would make him happier.

Thank you for sharing your experience of Ashworth Grange. It is so reassuring to hear your Dad is enjoying living with us and he has settled in well.

Mum went into respite initially but due to deterioration became a permanent resident. We are extremely happy with her care. She has settled in well and is very happy, well looked after, and joins the multitude of activities regularly. The staff, managers are brilliant with Mum and it is very reassuring
to see her thrive. She has lots of friends and a good social interaction. Cannot fault the care home.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father was finding it hard to live independently and matters were brought to a head when he had an accident at home which made that impossible. As he had always insisted he wished to remain at home, no matter what, I was concerned he would not adapt to living in a care home. However, the opposite
has proved to be the case, thanks to the staff, and I have not seen him happier or healthier for some time. Although not the cheapest, I would recommend anyone looking for a care home to consider Ashworth Grange.

My only disappointment is regarding mum's hearing aid. It has been lost - both private hearing aid which cost £2,300 and then her NHS hearing aid. Meaning now she has been without a hearing aid for 6 months and cannot hear as deaf in both ears.

We would like to thank everyone at Ashworth Grange for looking after my mother-in-law over the last, almost 6 years. You took over what we struggled to do as a family, which was to look after and keep her safe, so this is a thank you to all involved, from cleaning to management. Over the years we have
seen the love and care she got from you all, the nicknames you called her, and the loving words you spoke to her. The way you encouraged her to do things, without getting frustrated. You are very special people doing a really difficult job. Knowing that she was safe and well in a clean, comfortable, and welcoming home was a relief, especially over the last very difficult year. Whenever we came to visit we were made very welcome, with cups of tea, biscuits, and banter. In the last few days of her life, your compassion and empathy were exemplary. Her environment was really calm with soothing music and I would like to thank you for the care you also showed to me.

My mother visited for a weeks respite care. From the first time I contacted the home I felt reassured that mum who has dementia would be well looked after, I wasn't wrong the staff are wonderful she enjoyed her stay so much she didn't want to come home! I hope to take her again soon if they continue
to offer 1 week respite.

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.
