Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We found Cheverton Lodge care home to be excellent. The environment was pleasant upbeat and stimulating. The staff go over and beyond what they can be expected to do to ensure residents are comfortable, happy and have a voice. We consider ourselves very happy that our lovely mum had the opportunity
to end her days in such a lovely place. We could not have asked for more. Thank you. I would recommend this care home without reservation. This home should be held up as a beacon of what a very good quality care home looks like.

Review from L P (Sister-in-law of Resident) published on 12 September 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My sister-in-law was previously very independent and did not settle at first but the staff are very kind, hard working and caring. She now seems to feel at home a lot of the time, though has periods of sadness, possibly partly due to her previous stroke. Cheverton Lodge feels homely and friendly. My
sister-in-law likes to join in with the social activities but can choose not to. Her care is very good. It is a relatively small-medium home and the rooms aren't large. Ensuite toilets and basin but no shower.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
The staff are friendly and caring which is really important. My mother also enjoys the regularly organised activities.
Defects around the home seem to be fixed more quickly now. Occasionally cleanliness standards could be higher. The quality of the food is good.
The home has an attractive garden which
my mother enjoys.
Many thanks to the friendly staff of Cheverton Lodge.

Review from Kevin C (Nephew of Resident) published on 10 March 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
All of the staff especially the nursing staff on the second floor have been exemplary. The quality of care and the kindness to both my aunt and the rest of my family has been exceptional. The standards of cleanliness, quality of food and attention to detail surpassed my expectations and compare very
favourably to every other care home I have visited.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has now been in Barchester Cheverton Lodge Care Home for over 2 years and she has been happier the longer she has been here. She is secure and happy and clearly loves the staff (and show her great affection too) and feels comfortable and cared for. Her room has improved tremendously and is
now very attractive. The food is also very good. All in all a happy and welcoming place!

The nursing care is very good. The nurses are knowledgeable, professional and understanding. Meals and mealtimes can be a problem if you are diabetic, my diet has been difficult to manage. My blood sugar levels are closely monitored twice a day and I select sugar free food wherever possible.

My brother was in Cheverton Lodge for nearly 8 months.
I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all staff for the care, love and respect shown to him by all, which was truly amazing.
He loved going into the garden on his scooter, the outings and entertainment provided by Cheverton, also with
your care, all these things helped to make such a vast difference to his quality of life.
Thank you for the support and welcome you always gave to his family.

Staff are always pleasant and friendly. My mum appears peaceful every time I visit. My mum is unable to take part in any of the residents activities, but her door is always open and staff check on her regularly so I do not feel that she is isolated. She is bedridden. I spoke to the nurse about changing
mums food from mash to puree and she said she would refer her to the specialist. The manager agreed to action this straight away, since mum was not eating as well and having difficulty swallowing.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.814)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.814) out of 10 for Barchester Cheverton Lodge Care Home 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 39 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 38 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 4.814 for Barchester Cheverton Lodge Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (402 Excellents x 5) + (44 Goods x 4) + (10 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) + (4 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 462 Ratings = 4.814
  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 Barchester Cheverton Lodge Care Home is based on 38 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 52 registered maximum number of service users is 10.4, which has been reached with 38 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.
