Review from Brian S (Son-in-law of Resident) published on 26 April 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother-in-law has been in this home for about a year and half, and in all of this time I have found all of the staff and management to be extremely helpful and nice. I have also had various types of food here and it to be very nice, (no complaints). Every day my wife and I come to the home, there's
always something going on as far as activities go excellent, and as far as my mother-in-laws room, it it very very nice always kept clean and tidy by staff, and as far as value for money I would not think of taking my mother-in-law anywhere else. Thank you.

Review from David H (Resident) published on 25 April 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
The attributes that make this home stand above others emanate from the directives of the manager through out to the staff. The primary and clear message is that the home exists for the residents who are encouraged to actively make suggestions that would enhance their well-being. The entertainment whilst
being similar to what seems to be universal template, is expanded to include karaoke and any contributions from the residents of a good standard. This seems to promote a bond as the residents will join in with in house expertise, competitions, puzzles. There is a resulting feeling of togetherness. Occasionally delays and staff shortages happen but this is no different to all other homes. This clearly gives a high standard of support and excellent value.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My dear friend lived at Corner Lodge for 2 years but sadly passed away in February. I can honestly say the staff were truly amazing with the care that they provided. Nothing was ever too much trouble. I knew my friend was in a safe, friendly environment with all her needs taken care of. I was always
kept up to date with everything that was going on. I would recommend Corner Lodge and can't thank them enough for everything.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.689)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.689) out of 10 for Corner Lodge 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 25 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 24 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 4.689 for Corner Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (209 Excellents x 5) + (82 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 296 Ratings = 4.689
  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 Corner Lodge is based on 24 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 48 registered maximum number of service users is 9.6, which has been reached with 24 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.
