The staff at this home are friendly and welcoming. No smell of urine or cabbage! Lara and team liaise with us. Our relative has blossomed in their care. She is antisocial, and they respect her wishes not to participate in activities/dining area. The rooms are bright and cheerful, food is lovely. I asked
for the room to be changed around, and it was done the next morning. My mum is happy here now after a settling and adjustment period.
Reply from Tyler McCullagh, Regional Manager at Elm Lodge Care HomeThank you for your kind words regarding the care your relative receives at Elm Lodge, I am thrilled that she has settled and is happy in the with the team and the care provided.

From first contacting the care home, the manager who had recently been in post was excellent. She reassured us and was very supportive, as she knew we were worried, as we were going away for Easter. I would give the manager 10/10 for the support she gave. My mother-in-law was very well cared for and
enjoyed participating in the activities. We were telephoned on our first day away and reassured that my mother-in-law was okay. This meant so much to us as we were going to contact that same evening. The manager was knowledgeable regarding Dementia/Alzheimer's, again, this helped. Thank you to all who cared for my mother-in-law and allowed us to get away.

Mum has been at Elm lodge for around two months now, and is very happy. The home seems very well run. The facilities are good, and it always looks clean. Most importantly, the staff are brilliant, and they always seem attentive, friendly and helpful. It is really reassuring, to know that mum is being
well cared for. Very satisfied.

My wife has now been at Elm Lodge for six months. The care she has received is beyond expectations. When admitted she was often violent and uncooperative but with the dedication and patience of the manager, supported by her equally dedicated staff and doctor, she has become calmer and cooperative with
requests. She is still confused but my family and I can relax knowing that she is safe and being cared for properly.

Our mother was discharged from the hospital and moved into Elm Lodge care facility in March 2022. The manager of Elm Lodge at that time was excellent; they worked with us to help our mother settle in with a non-judgmental and approachable attitude. Overall, we have been very happy with the care our
mother has received from the day-to-day staff at Elm Lodge. We understand that working in such an environment, especially in dementia care, is not easy, but we feel that our mother has been well taken care of, and we are grateful to the care staff for that. Thank you.

For the most part I have been happy with the care my Dad has received. Vast majority of staff are friendly and supportive. My Dad is usually clean and well-presented. I’ve only had a couple of times when this was not the case and I raised this at the time. Areas I feel could be improved:
The hairdresser
could be better. My Dads hair has been hacked at and I’ve heard some residents say they don’t like having theirs done. I’ve raised the issue of name badges for staff before as I do think this is important but I appreciate for safety/infection control etc they are not deemed appropriate. As an alternative, I think it would be nice to have a staff photo board displayed so that residents and visitors could see who’s who. I would like to thank you for the care my Dad receives. I know how challenging the demands of dementia care can be so thank you for all that you do.

My father has been in Elm Lodge for two years this September. He wasn't in the best place when he arrived there after being hospitalised for quite a while. But the staff looked after him so well. So caring and with dignity and respect. He wouldn't join in with any of the daily activities, but just sit
and watch.
To see him now is unbelievable, I would never have believed him to be healthwise where he is now.
He will take part in everything. I can also see an improvement within Elm Lodge over the time dad has been there. The activities have increased and outings for the residents too. Thank you to all for the care, and love you all give to my dad and all the other residents too.

My mother was very happy in the months she spent in Elm Lodge. The manager and all the staff were very good with mum she loved them all, it was a relief to me she was being so well looked after as I live so far away from Chesterfield. When mum passed away we went to see all the staff and the manager,
they were all so respectful and consoling and they were all telling us of the love and support they gave her which we knew was genuine as mum said she loved every one of them. I couldn't have wished for mum final months to be so loved.

Firstly I will not criticise the staff. They are probably underpaid and appear to be understaffed and for those I have encountered, care about their residents. For the amount of money being paid for my mother to stay in this facility I find the place to be very uninviting. The decor is basic. The bedrooms
are basic. I appreciate for health and safety reasons carpets, rugs etc are not there but I’m sure there are more things that can be done to make the place feel more homely. I am not aware of any activities and on the times I’ve visited and all residents just seem to be sitting in their chairs in the communal room with just a TV and again the communal rooms are very uninspiring. I also think the garden could be made more user-friendly and ensure the residents living upstairs have access in summer.
Reply from Lara Beardshaw, Manager at Elm Lodge Care HomeThank you for your review - I would like to take this opportunity to respond to the comments left if I may.

Staff pay - I am sure we could all agree that no matter how much healthcare staff are paid it is never enough for the wonderful job they do. In relation to staffing levels - we always have above the required dependency levels than required. The care fee rates are set by the local authority and not the home itself and all residents receive a financial assessment by social services who decide on how much they pay towards the cost of care. In respect of the decor in bedrooms, all residents and families are invited to personalise bedrooms etc to suit. Activities are delivered and these are evidenced on our social media site for those who wish to take part and granted permission for photos to be taken. Sadly there is little we can do to level out the garden fully as this is our local Derbyshire landscape. If there is anything you do wish to raise you are always welcome to visit.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.483)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.483) out of 10 for Elm Lodge Care Home 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 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 15 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 4.608 for Elm Lodge Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (120 Excellents x 5) + (64 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 189 Ratings = 4.608
  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 4.875 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Elm Lodge Care Home is based on 15 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 = 3.875
    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 46 registered maximum number of service users is 9.2, which has been reached with 15 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.

Job Title: Home Manager Joined: 2026

Dear Residents, Families, Colleagues, and Friends.
Meet Our New Home Manager at Elm Lodge


Hello everyone! My name is Shoaib Mohammed, but please call me Mo. I’m very happy to be joining Elm Lodge as the new Home Manager.


I’ve worked in residential and dementia care for over 7 years, and caring for the elderly is truly close to my heart. My passion for care began when I helped look after my grandmother, who lived to the wonderful age of 109. That experience shaped my values and inspired me to build my career in elderly care.


My goal at Elm Lodge is to make sure every resident feels safe, respected, listened to, and at home. I’m really looking forward to getting to know our residents, families, staff, and the wider community.

‘I believe residents are no longer written off, no longer a Strain on Services, no longer just a woman with Dementia but a mother who was many great things to many people’


I strongly believe that the best care comes from working together. I look forward to getting to know our residents, building trusting relationships with families, supporting our wonderful staff, and being an active part of the local community.


Please feel free to stop me for a chat when your @Elm Lodge, share your thoughts, or simply say hello—I am always happy to listen:)
