Mum has been receiving respite care at Newgate Lodge since 27th January this year. I have been delighted at the care and support given to mum. All staff are friendly and caring and mum is receiving excellent care. Staff include mum in appropriate activities and are sensitive to her needs. Mum is living
with vascular dementia and staff recognise and support mum to be as independent as she is able. Mum is clean, well fed and she is in a safe, secure environment. I can't think of a better place for mum to be. I highly recommend Newgate Lodge as a great place for care and support. All staff are committed to their roles and I feel confident to approach them when enquiring about mums well being. Well done Newgate Lodge.

Whenever I visit the home I'm always impressed by how clean and tidy the bedrooms, lounge and dining room are, the staff are very friendly and helpful and I can see that my mum (who has dementia) is very well cared for and happy and content
I have occasionally visited at meal times and the dinners
look lovely, as do the sandwiches at tea time.
Lots of entertainment and activities are provided and they have even included my mum in group visits to the theatre and a local cafe which she thoroughly enjoyed.
I love that they keep relatives updated on social media where I regularly see photographs of my mum and others enjoying activities.
Staff do seem to try to think of anything which will improve their quality of life, be that visits from children at the local primary school, visits from therapy dogs, or having a manicure.
I would highly recommend this home.

    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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, which has been reached with 43 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.
