My father moved to Barchester Cheverton Lodge Care Home this week. So far, I am delighted with the care and support my father has received. The manager was extremely warm and welcoming and made me feel at ease upon arrival, he has a warm, human and friendly approach. Overall, my experience has been
excellent and most importantly, the staff had made my father feel comfortable and happy. In addition, I mentioned that my father does not like drinking plain water - the next day, the carer had put orange squash in his jug instead. Thank you all.
P.S. I have noticed a positive impact on my father's well-being since switching care homes to Barchester Cheverton Lodge Care Home - the manager is amazing and always checks in with me.

I really appreciated the excellent nursing care she received at Barchester Cheverton Lodge Care Home. The team were outstanding! I felt I could relax knowing she was cared for with such kindness and dignity. We have fond memories of visiting her, especially in the last few weeks of her life. She said,
many times, she was happy at the home and she made everyone smile with her sense of humour! I highly recommend Cheverton Lodge.

My dear friend is very well cared for and I enjoy taking them into the lovely gardens, weather allowing and sometimes I join in with her in one of the activities,

I visited a couple of care homes in the community and Barchester Cheverton Lodge Care Home was one of them. I liked the feeling when I visited, space, brightness when I visited.
Dad moved in in December 2023 and has taken a few weeks to adjust. He does enjoy it there and the staff have adapted to his
ways. I would like to thank the nurse, the senior carer and all the staff for their patience over the last few months with Dad.
Dementia is not an easy condition and I have lived with seeing the changes, it is so different for everyone and they cope incredibly.

My elderly sister has just become a resident at Cheverton Lodge and four days after Christmas, she celebrated her 84th birthday at a lunch party for family and friends hosted by the care home in one of its elegant, intimate, dining rooms. The food was delicious and much enjoyed by all in a very relaxed
atmosphere. We hope this will be a sign of things to come for my sister as she adapts to full-time care.

I assisted my sister-in-law to move to this care home in 2015. It had been recommended by one of my carers at her home. My sister-in-law's care has been fantastic and she settled and I think was happy here. During the pandemic, the precautions were excellent and there was plenty of information from
Barchester.
Also, a lot of the staff got to know her over the years.
Thank you for looking after my sister-in-law so well.

It was a difficult decision to place my dad in a care home, but there was no other choice. Once we arrived at Cheverton Lodge, from reception to first-floor staff, everyone was so kind and welcoming. He had first-class care the whole time, his needs were attended to the whole time, and I could see that
my dad was comfortable, eating well and kept clean. I would highly recommend. We had an amazing experience!

Mum was well cared for in Cheverton Lodge where she lived for nearly 21 months. The nursing and the care staff are extremely professional and always friendly and helpful. The reception staff have a much appreciated welcoming smile.
The caring, kind, and compassionate care that Mum received meant a
lot to her and it made her end of life journey as peaceful, calm, and pain-free as possible.
A big thank you to all, in particular the excellent nursing and care staff, involved in looking after Mum.
A couple of observations - perhaps it might be more beneficial for an individual resident to have consistent care, as far as possible, from a nominated staff member (rather than rotating care staff). This is because the care is of an intimate and personal nature and maintaining mutual trust and understanding between the resident and the carer is vital for the resident’s dignity and respect.
Also, provision of more varied and culturally appropriate diet/food should be considered.

Reply from Krisztina Vadnai, Acting General Manager at Barchester Cheverton Lodge Care Home

Thank you for reviewing our care, and for the privilege of looking after your father. As always, we are here to provide holistic care for our residents in a homely and compassionate manner and use our familes' feedback to continually review and improve our service.

My mother was welcomed very warmly into Cheverton Lodge in March 2023 and from the moment we arrived, the manager and the whole team made us feel like we were at home and surrounded by family. Certain members of staff, in particular, cared for us all in such an amazing way. Nothing was too much trouble
(including helping us host a small celebration for my Mum’s birthday).
Sadly Mum passed away after only a few weeks, and the whole team gave us amazing support at an unimaginably difficult time. We cannot adequately express our gratitude to the whole team at Cheverton Lodge for making the end of my Mum’s life peaceful and comfortable, and for the love and support, they gave our whole family.
Cheverton Lodge is a very special place, and whoever takes over from the manager as general manager will have a very hard act to follow. We will remember them all with huge warmth and fondness.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.893)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.893) out of 10 for Barchester Cheverton Lodge Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 41 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 41 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.893 for Barchester Cheverton Lodge Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (436 Excellents x 5) + (44 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 484 Ratings = 4.893

  • b) 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 Barchester Cheverton Lodge Care Home is based on 41 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 52 registered maximum number of service users is 10.4, which has been reached with 41 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
