Review from Kathy P (Daughter of Resident) published on 15 April 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I cannot thank all staff at Aran Lodge enough for their professional palliative nursing and care given to my mum over her last four weeks. All staff managed to reach my mum and give her their utmost comfort and care which she needed so much at this time, out of a hospital environment. I will be eternally
grateful for your support and kindness to my mum and myself. The staff understood my mum so well and were able to meet all her nursing and caring needs. Even with such health needs, Mum had some really happy and enjoyable days with you, eating and drinking well when she could and interacting with the activities with other residents which gives me enormous peace. Mum’s needs were totally met and I could not ask for more. The home-from-home environment was so peaceful for Mum and myself.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum was given a palliative diagnosis recently and could not be cared for within the home environment, she was offered a place at Aran Lodge which has been amazing from the first day.
All the staff are very attentive and supportive with all of my mum's daily needs, she is still able to walk from
her room into the lounge which they assist with as she walks using a frame.
We are very happy with her room and the care and attention she gets from all the staff they are all so kind, and have the time to spend with her during the day when we are not visiting.
Mum has the ability to participate in activities which are reading, board games, television, listening to music, and talking to all the staff which she loves
We are able to come and go at any time which is really important as we all work different times during the week, and we are able to take Mum out for visits with the support of the staff.
It's made a really sad situation much more bearable.
Thank you to all.

Would like to say a big thank you to the manager and her team for giving my mum such care and attention during her short time at Aran Lodge. Nothing was too much trouble and effort was made by staff to communicate with Mum as English wasn’t her first language.
Thanks again for making my mum’s last
few days as comfortable as possible.

Review from Roddy M (Son-in-law of Resident) published on 28 November 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum was taken into hospital after a fall but her condition worsened and she was eventually transferred to Aran Lodge for end-of-life care.
This was a situation we had not, in any way, expected or planned for however the team managed the whole process seamlessly, took great pains to make sure Mum
was settled in with the minimum of fuss and then went the extra mile to make sure we were all ok as well.
The home is spotlessly clean and tidy, all the team are so kind and caring, the facilities are first-class and we can’t speak highly enough of them all.
When Mum eventually passed away, they sat with her (and us) until the end, some of the team wouldn’t even go home as they still had us to look after as well.
Aran Lodge has certainly changed our opinion of care homes and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the home and the team to anyone.

During this very sad, difficult, and worrying period of time, I can rest easier knowing that my father is in very good hands. This care home is very well run by a competent leader, and the staff are more than helpful and efficient in everything they do. Thank you Aran Lodge for making my father's last
days as comfortable as possible.

Review from David S (Son of Resident) published on 1 November 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Difficult to explain the worry and anxiety and distress at the thought of using a care home. It wasn't something we expected but life sometimes has a way of turning things upside down. So I'd just say that whilst I am still worried about Mum, the Director and her team have been so utterly and incredibly
wonderful. They've managed expectations they've looked after Mum so tenderly and beautifully at least I know I don't have to worry about the care she is being given. The environment is homely, it's clean and tidy and food is excellent having seen some proper 'home made cooking' and despite the obvious, you could be forgiven for thinking its a hotel. Whilst I wish no one had to go through such challenging times if it should happen then go visit and you'll get some peace of mind.
Reply from Sunita Warner, Director at Aran Lodge
Thank you for your kind words. As you know it’s a pleasure looking after her and having you all visit.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.951)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.951) out of 10 for Aran Lodge is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 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 4.951 for Aran Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (234 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 246 Ratings = 4.951
  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 Aran Lodge is based on 22 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 24 registered maximum number of service users is 4.8, which has been reached with 22 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.
