Review from J R (Resident) published on 2 July 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The people who work for us are our most valuable asset; this is certainly the case at Gresham Lodge and is reflected in the standards of care and services provided by the team to both residents and visitors to this home. My own stay at Gresham Lodge was as a result of having to be non-weight bearing
for eight weeks following surgery to reconstruct my foot/ankle. At the time, I dearly wanted to be in my own home, however, this was not an option, and the staff helped me to adapt in a positive way to my new situation. Once my plaster cast has been removed, I will be embarking on the final stage of my road to recovery by spending some time at a rehabilitation facility. Part of me will be sad to leave Gresham Lodge. The staff work so well as a team that it would be unfair, and impossible, to single out any individuals as exceptional. They have helped me by encouraging me to embrace changes to my situation; they are now my friends, and I will never forget them and what they did for me.

Overall I am very satisfied with the quality of care given by all the staff. Residents individual needs are met and time permitting they are all treated with dignity, respect and most importantly care. I am aware that time doesn't always allow for activities, and some residents won't or can't participate.
More stimulating activities should be provided.

On having approached Gresham Lodge in Dec 2018 with a view to finding a place for my sister, we were treated with sympathy for my sister and ourselves. So when we had to find a home for her, Gresham Lodge was our first choice. She has been given all the care and comfort I have wished for her for the
last three years. It has meant a lot to me as I am now her sister again not her carer and is a pleasure going to see her and having a chat to all the staff who are very welcoming and interested in my sisters family.

Gresham lodge is a beautiful and immaculate home. The staff are very professional. Also friendly and approachable. The staff treat my father with respect and the care is very dignified. The equipment is in good repair. My father has a pressure relieving mattress and all the aids that he requires. The
layout is excellent. I consider Gresham Lodge to be a top quality home.

My father has only been here for nearly two weeks, but we feel he has settled easily. The staff are very caring and extremely friendly. He has a lovely room and everything is spotless. We have had direct contact with staff over any concerns i.e. had to send Dad to hospital etc.

This was our first visit. We found the home light and airy, the staff friendly and happy to inform us of everything we wanted to know.
Mum is being well cared for at this difficult time of her life.
We were invited to lunch which was really tasty.

My Nanna has been to this home twice now and I wouldn't have her anywhere else.
Firstly and most importantly the staff are nothing less than fantastic in fact they're like family. Nothing is too much. They do my Nanna's nails, rub cream on her legs and when they can just sit with her and talk this
makes her feel good.
The food is all homemade and very nice and I'm a chef so I can honestly say that.

My mum has been in this care home since February. We decided on this one because out of all those we visited this was the friendliest and felt very homely. My mum has settled in very well from the start. The care staff including managers/owners are very friendly and amazing with my mum she loves them.
Its very clean and the meals are both varied and tasty having had a few meals there myself with mum. They have various activities and events going on each month. Also, a hairdresser that goes weekly. Without a doubt, I would recommend this home to everyone

First class care is provided here. The home is relatively small, with 21 residents and this enables a high degree of personal care to be provided with all of the staff and residents knowing each other.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.828)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.828) out of 10 for Gresham Lodge is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 13 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 4.828 for Gresham Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (129 Excellents x 5) + (18 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 151 Ratings = 4.828
  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 Gresham Lodge 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 23 registered maximum number of service users is 4.6, 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.
