Review from C P (Daughter of Resident) published on 11 August 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
As soon as my mother came to Middleton Grove she was greeted with love and care and soon became one of the 'family'. Her individuality and personal preferences have always been listened to and even down to her own specific music choices up in the lounge. The activities and food are amazing and trips
out fun.
My mums care is fantastic and the way that relatives are kept in the loop re: assessment, medications reviews, doctors visits etc is super. I feel listened to when I need to discuss something about my mother and always get a response.
Her room is airy and bright as are all the rooms and she is treated with the upmost respect and curtesy as are the family.
My mother feels 'at home' and is so fond of all the loving and caring staff.
Ran by two wonderful managers and fantastic staff.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
The staff and management provided high quality care for my mother who was taken very ill over christmas. As my mother was bed bound and so was unable to attend any activities. Also she wouldnt eat much. This was no reflection on Middleton Grove. All of the staff and management were very caring to both
mum and me. They always took the time to explain things they were doing. always in a kind manner. A first class nursing home.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum came into this nursing home after having a really bad experience at a different one. Middleton Grove is excellent, from the management, nurses, carers and housekeeping, we cannot fault any of it. They involve us and tell us things we need to know, any new problems, appointments etc. They are
the majority of the time very quick to come to my mum's aid. Everyone is polite and so caring, from the minute you walk in the door until the moment you leave. In one word - Excellent.

Three members of staff in particular are brilliant managers, helping Middleton to provide excellent respite care for my mother.
All staff are always friendly and professional whilst having a smile on their faces.
In the communal room, I've been there to see them run activities that engage residents.

Middleton Grove Care Home is a no-frills nursing home. It's very clean and well-maintained. The care received by my friend is second to none!
The team, by that I mean all staff (nursing, care, admin and domestic), are a wonderful group of people.
Thank you all for caring for my friend until his passing.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.796)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.796) out of 10 for Middleton Grove is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 26 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 26 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 4.796 for Middleton Grove is calculated as follows: ( (247 Excellents x 5) + (61 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 309 Ratings = 4.796
  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 Middleton Grove is based on 26 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 54 registered maximum number of service users is 10.8, which has been reached with 26 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.
