Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
As a partial wheelchair user myself and after losing my dad 3 months ago, I looked at many care homes and Boultham Park stood out head & shoulders above the rest, and totally lived up to that for my mums stay it was a real "home from home" with staff treating my mum as if she were their own care wise.
It really was outstanding. The only comment or something to build on would be that rooms aren't huge an dont have their own toilet but none of this really matters when everything else is so special & caring. Thank you so much to all of the staff for their exceptional care xxxx

Mum arrived at BPH in April badly in need of respite care. She has a large bright room. She has experienced friendly, consistent and quality care which has helped her recovery such that she is looking forward to returning home next month.
Can't praise the team highly enough.

From the start of my uncle's stay to the end, we found genuine care, patience and support.
First-class provision and motivated, well-trained staff who quickly became my uncle's friends.
Should we have need of a home from home again, we wouldn't go anywhere else!

My mum has been receiving respite care since November 2023, having previously spent 4 weeks in another home. She settled immediately, tells me she feels safe and secure and has taken part in lots of activities that put my social calendar to shame! The staff are friendly, engaging and genuinely caring.
Thank you!

The home has a wonderful, friendly and welcoming atmosphere. All the staff and residents related to each other on first-name terms and with respect. The outside space is great, and so is the beautifully maintained garden. My wife enjoyed her time there.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Boultham Park House has been a godsend for my aunt. When she was discharged from hospital after a long stay in rehab, the home she was placed in was not ideal and we saw all her progress fade. Thankfully we found Boultham Park, where we feel she is treated with love, care and dignity. The staff and
nurses are simply wonderful. The home is cosy, clean and has such a happy atmosphere. Our experience over the last six months has been 100% positive. It really is a home-from-home. Thank you!
Reply from Rowen Campbell, on behalf of the team at Boultham Park House

I'm so glad your aunt is thriving with us at Boultham Park and that it feels like home. Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. I'll make sure the team sees it as I know they do appreciate it.

Review from Mandy M (Daughter of Resident) published on 13 February 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum went to Boultham Park House in July 2021. We didn't think she would be with them for more than about six weeks. Before going in, Mum didn't get out of bed, was hardly eating, and I had to take a wheelchair into her bedroom to take her to the bathroom for a shower. Though it was the hardest thing
I ever had to do leaving Mum there, as a family, we knew it was best for Mum. Mum has dementia and, at the time, didn't really believe there was anything wrong with her. Ever since then, Mum has had a wonderful time there. She has engaged in activities which we couldn't get her to do before. She was eating well and was more of her old self. The staff there cannot do enough for the residents, and nothing is too much trouble. In the beginning, I was ringing every day, but that was ok; the staff didn't mind. The staff are loving and caring and treat the residents like they are family.
Reply from Rowen Campbell, Regional Marketing Manager at Boultham Park House

Thanks so much for taking the time to share your mum's story, and I'm glad she has been able to get involved with all aspects of life at the home. I will pass on your feedback to the team at Boultham Park, as they will really appreciate your kind words.

I came Boultham Park House initially on a temporary basis.
I found the staff wonderful, nothing is too much trouble. I have a large family, my family are always welcomed when they visit me. I have decided to become a permanent resident now.

When the time comes for your parent to move from their home, you look for somewhere where they will be happy and safe. We found that place- Boultham Park House. Mum says that she is looked after like a queen. Nothing is too much trouble and she is able to live her life as she pleases. Our family have
peace of mind and can enjoy life with mum again, knowing all her needs are being met by caring, kind and highly skilled people in a place she now calls home.

My husband was in a very unsatisfactory care home. After much research, I was very impressed with all aspects of Boultham Care Home. He was finally moved there in September. He has settled well. The care is first class, the staff very caring and cheerful, plus activities and music. I feel more relaxed
and confident that my husband is receiving the care he deserves.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.738)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.738) out of 10 for Boultham Park House 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 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 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 4.738 for Boultham Park House is calculated as follows: ( (126 Excellents x 5) + (33 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 164 Ratings = 4.738
  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 Boultham Park House is based on 13 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 35 registered maximum number of service users is 7, which has been reached with 13 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.

Joanne

Joanne Johnson

Job Title: Home Manager Joined: 2003

Joanne Johnson is the Home Manager at The Orders of St John Care Home, Boultham Park in Lincoln.


Joanne has worked in the care industry for the last twenty-two years, the last fifteen being with The Orders of St John Care Trust. She began my career initially as a Carer, working both days & nights before then being promoted to Care Leader, which gave Joanne the necessary leadership skills to become Head of Care and more recently Home Manager.


As Joanne has developed personally in each role, that passion has never left her and now as the Home manager, she still gets a real satisfaction from engaging with the Residents and helping where she can.


Since working in the industry, Joanne has achieved NVQ Level 2&3 in Health and Social care, Level 3 in effective Management. Jo is a medication champion for the Trust, and an appointed First Aider, who is working towards her level 5 management award.


In 2016, Joanne was presented with a chairman’s commendation for meritorious service which she is extremely proud of.


Every day is different in the life of the care home, usually very busy, but managed effectively by prioritising tasks. Jo has a very approachable nature and has an open-door policy enabling all colleagues, residents and visitors to feel they are able to talk to her.


Joanne’s passion for care of the elderly developed at a young age, having a close relationship with her Grandparents and taking her Grandfather to visit his friends in a variety of care providers, she soon realised that she wanted to support individuals and make a difference where she could.


When not at work, I enjoy foreign travel, socialising, dining out, reading and spending quality time with my husband Richard and my much-loved dog Ollie.
