My experience of the home is good. Facilities need complete change/alteration in some areas. Food is definitely a subject for improvement. Medical problems are dealt with efficiently. I am self-sufficient on the whole, but I am confident that should my needs change there would be no problems in any
area.

Highly recommend Cheverton Lodge. My husband has been a resident since Oct 2019. They provide excellent care through dedicated staff and have shown great patience, understanding and hard work when getting to know my husband with his various and complicated conditions. I feel very fortunate to have found
them.

Cheverton Lodge has looked after my nan for over 15 years. She loved being here. All the staff old and new treated her like family. One of their own. My family and I will be entirely grateful for everything you did for her until the day she passed. Simply thank you from the bottom of my heart.

We were extremely happy and grateful for the loving care and attention to detail that my uncle has been given over the last few years. Everyone from management to all the staff Have been wonderful. He could not have been better looked after.
When you walk into the building, the first thing that strikes
you is the cleanliness and pleasant environment. We really cannot thank everyone enough for making my uncle feel like he had another family.

I cannot describe how highly I feel about this care home and the management and all the people who are doing an excellent job of carding for loved ones. They are very kind and efficient and provide very good care of my son. I can’t thank them all enough for their kindness and care, it really means a
lot that I know he is well-loved and looked after when I’m unable to visit.

Reply from Earl Elliott, General Manager at Barchester Cheverton Lodge Care Home

I would recommend Cheverton Lodge to family and friends. It is well run and has very good staff. The manager and his senior staff show very good leadership. Staff are valued and this shows by the way they treat the residents. The staff provide very good care for all residents including my father who
needs a lot of care and patience. The home is presently handling the Coronavirus pandemic very well. The home like the rest of the care Group had a plan in place long before the government lockdown. The home is following government advice and procedure. So far, none of Cheverton Lodge's residents or staff has become ill and hopefully, it will remain this way. Relatives of residents are able to keep in touch via video calls which Cheverton Lodge quickly set up. Relatives can also telephone their love ones. At this present time, I think the home is doing all it can to bring itself safely through this pandemic.

I’m writing this review because I’m extremely happy with Cheverton Lodge. I have not been able to visit my relative for a good few weeks now, because of this virus, and it’s hard when you really don’t know what’s going on within the home when you don’t attend, but I have got to say I phone on a regular
basis and always the staff are helpful and willing to talk even though they are extremely busy at this time.
I am given updates on my relative and told to ring as and when I want, I have even spoken on the phone to her and video link, always getting emails and letters to keep us informed. Thank you so much for the care that is ongoing, stay safe and thank you once again.

Reply from Earl Elliott, General Manager at Barchester Cheverton Lodge Care Home

Dear reviewer, thank you for reviewing us, please be reassured that we are doing everything possible to keep your loved one safe, and maintaining lines of communication so you can speak to your loved one, on the phone or through our video account... Stay safe.

My sister was at Cheverton Lodge for nearly a month following a long stay at the Whittington for an acute orthopaedic problem. The care at Cheverton was superb. Exceptional in fact. This is because it is a caring place with highly professional staff. It is friendly and supportive. Very good facilities
and activities and good food. Her room was light and airy. And the staff were patient and helpful even when things were difficult. My brother-in-law needs help and we hope he will be able to find a room in Cheverton Lodge too.

I was a resident for respite care due to a leg injury and I was practically immobile, the food was inedible also too rich.
For me, it made me ill, I was bullied by certain staff, (naming no names) it is the worst so-called nursing care home anywhere in North London. I didn't get nursing care and was
often forgotten at mealtimes, also other times.
My medicines weren't supplied. I was rather happy to leave it and come home.

My mother was at Cheverton Lodge recently for respite care and we were concerned about her settling. In the end, we need not have worried as she was very well looked after and seemed comfortable. It made a big difference to know she was in a safe place with staff doing their best for each resident.

I visit my grandad regularly and I am very impressed with the care he receives. He is well looked after and very happy to be a resident.
The home is immaculately clean and the food is always of a high standard with lots of choices.
The staff are very friendly and make lots of effort to make my grandad
feel comfortable.
Thank you Cheverton Lodge.

I am very happy with the care my father receives. Since being there he has put on weight and has been very well looked after.
I often come at various times and always find the staff very friendly, welcoming, professional and extremely caring from the cleaners to the manager and really would like to
thank everyone for the care my father has received since being at the Lodge.
Thank you.

My nan was very apprehensive when she first came following a stroke. The staff have been so good at helping her adapt to her new life here. She is happy and healthy, well looked after and joins in the activities. The staff here are all very lovely and helpful. I'm so glad my nan has such a nice place

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.
