Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I'm very happy with the home and the support the staff give to my dad. The management are very supportive. My dad loves the food and snacks throughout the day, "loves the Sunday roast". Dad loves the various activities and going out on trips in the vehicle.
Reply from Thanusa Sathyendran, Home Manager at Furze Hill Lodge

Thank you so much for your lovely review. We're really glad to hear that your dad is doing well and that you feel happy with the care we're providing.Your kind words mean a lot to the team.

Mum was admitted to Furze Hill as an emergency admission due to being unsafe in her flat. I had fantastic communications from the management team prior to admission advising me how to negotiate with social services as I had never had such an experience before! The staff in the home were caring, understanding
and friendly. Mum also stated that the activities were first class and varied.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My niece seemed much more settled and happy on our 2nd visit, she looked well was dressed nicely and her hair had been recently cut. Her room also felt more homely with pictures etc. When we left my niece was momentarily upset, but the carer expertly distracted her with the dog, we were impressed by
his manner, and the activities we have seen evidence of. Our general impression of Furze Hill Lodge is very positive it has a good atmosphere and we are pleased for it to be our niece's home.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I trusted Furze Hill to look after my husband of 63 years (he is now 88 years old) and they have exceeded my expectations! All the staff are amazing - he was bedbound after a long stay in hospital but is now up on his legs, albeit not walking far, but he is getting there with the help of his carers,
and the physio who comes in thrice a week. Parts of the home are a bit tired but they are getting there. I could not recommend Furze Hill more.

I cannot praise the manager and the staff enough for the amazing welcome and care they gave to my mother when she became a resident a the home. Although I was worried and extremely anxious for her I realised immediately that she was in the best place possible. She settled in straight away due to the
staff's attention and support.

I arranged for the current resident to come to Furze Hill Lodge because I had previously had a good experience with the care taken by all the staff. I checked whether this was still the case and was very pleased to find that it had actually improved in all respects but particularly in terms of the quality
and maintenance of rooms attention to detail of individual requirement and friendliness of staff.

They coped with my mum very well. The residents seemed very happy and also catered for their age group on TV with a nice film on. Staff are very hands-on.
Very happy customer.

My Mother is looked after well although on occasion feels she's not listened to regarding her wishes. Says there could be more choices in the food served especially breakfast. Apparently most days 2 slices of toast with marmalade (cereal, scrambled eggs, porridge alternatives could be added to the menu.)
The decoration of the building and residents' rooms could do with an overhaul.

The care home environment is very welcoming and the staff are very helpful - always with a smile! They are very attentive to my Mum and attend to her needs as appropriate.
My Mum enjoys the food and the activities such as her recent trip to the garden centre for afternoon tea. I feel very comfortable
leaving my Mum in this care home knowing she is safe and warm. - Thank you.

My Mother-in-law originally came to stay for respite after 2 weeks here it was apparent that she needed 24/7 care. All the staff is lovely and she is very happy here. The staff go above and beyond for the residents and always make visitors very welcome. The entertainment man is brilliant and keeps the
residents very active and always engages with them.

Mum has settled in well, she enjoys the company, and the food is good. The stimulation Mum gets with the various activities they do is something Mum hasn't had for a while which is great. Also taking Mum out with others for trips to the Garden Centre etc. helps to get them out and give them something
else to talk about when we visit.

My aunt was transferred to Furze Hill Lodge care home in September 2023 from the hospital, having been diagnosed as having lost full mental capacity and not safe to be living on her own. In her time at the home, she was treated with compassion and dignity at all times. The staff were generous and caring
at all times and courteous to me when visiting. Her diet was varied and she put on weight. She was later taken to hospital suffering from a chest infection and passed away peacefully.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.593)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.593) out of 10 for Furze Hill Lodge is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 4.593 for Furze Hill Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (135 Excellents x 5) + (57 Goods x 4) + (10 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 204 Ratings = 4.593
  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 Furze Hill Lodge is based on 16 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 29 registered maximum number of service users is 5.8, which has been reached with 16 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.

Thanusa Sathyendran

Job Title: Home Manager Joined: 2022

My name is Thanusa and I have worked in care for 20 years now. My parents were both born in Sri Lanka, but I was born in France. At 16, I went to live with my grandparents in supported living which I adored. I was always helping the other people who lived there, and this really started my passion and career in care.
I started as a carer at a local care home and completed my first 2 NVQ’s. I then progressed to be a deputy manager in a residential care home. I decided to study for my Level 5 NVQ and went on complete a BA honour in health and social care to become a care home manager which was a personal goal for me.
I have now been at Furze Hill Lodge for just over 3 months where I am focused on providing an environment where the people who live at the home feel cared for, respected, and supported.
