Derwent Lodge is a friendly, well-run care home. My husband is well looked after each and every day. All the rooms are always very clean and smell nice. The meals are very good too. The entertainment has been great, please could we have more of it now we are over the restrictions of COVID. It would
be nice to offer days out, perhaps more happening in the garden in the summer, for relatives to be able to have lunch or dinner with their loved ones. I would definitely recommend Derwent Lodge.

Review from Rob H (Son of Resident) published on 29 January 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has dementia and is bed bound and has high needs. She has been a resident for around 15 months, and I pestered the council for her to be moved to Derwent Lodge from a different care home in the borough initially because it was located closer to her house and her more elderly friends could
visit her.
However, from my first visit to view Derwent Lodge, I knew this would be the best place for my mum. There is a general warm and calm feeling about the place and little touches like wallpaper in the corridors, makes it feel like a 'home' and not a care centre.
In my opinion, the staff (and not just the carers) are at the heart of this. The level of care my mum has received and the information and contact I get about my mum's welfare and health is beyond my expectations, as none of us, including relatives, knew what to expect.
The staff make me feel part of their small 'community'. They always offer help and support when needed and always give a smile and a sense of calm normality. Thanks.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
In 2020, I faced the challenge of finding an appropriate care home for my mother during the COVID lockdown. Despite the inability to visit potential homes in person, I engaged in extensive telephone discussions with managers from various facilities on my list. Ultimately, I chose Derwent Lodge, and
I am delighted to report that the care provided to my mother has been exceptional. The home is very clean, promoting health and safety, with a good variety of meal options and resident entertainment. The staff treats residents with genuine compassion, dignity, and respect. During my weekly visits, I witness laughter and smiles and am personally made to feel like a part of the family. The carers are exceptional, and the nurses are incredibly helpful when I have any questions and provide regular updates on my mother's well-being. Most importantly, my mum is happy there. I wish to extend my gratitude to everyone at Derwent Lodge for the wonderful care they provide to my mother.

Our experience as a family has been outstanding.
My mother has been in Derwent Lodge for about 3 years and myself and family have always received regular updates regarding Mum's health. Staff are so friendly and engaging - it really shows how much of a bond they have with all residents.
The activities
they provide are fantastic, everyone from staff to residents and visitors are involved.

Review from Maja I (Daughter of Resident) published on 31 August 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father was a resident of Derwent Lodge for a little longer than 6 months. He was transferred to Derwent Lodge from a different care home, where he wasn't treated well at all. The care my father received at Derwent Lodge is above excellent. All the staff looked after him so well, I never had a bad
word to say. The carers are amazing, the nurses are so friendly and above helpful, always happy to stop and talk and give an update. If any concerns were raised to them, they would straight away deal with it, without questions asked. The residents are treated with dignity and respect. My father sadly passed away 2 months ago, but I will forever be grateful to everyone, from carers, nurses to management for looking after my father like no one ever did before and for making the last few months of his life as comfortable as they possibly could.
Thank you to everyone at Derwent Lodge from the bottom of my heart, from Mum and myself.

Derwent Lodge Care Centre, where my mother-in-law has been living for the past 5 years. The living accommodations at Derwent Lodge are well-maintained. The rooms are clean, spacious, and equipped with necessary amenities. The home also offers various communal areas for socializing and engaging in activities,
promoting a sense of community among the residents. The medical care and support provided by the nursing staff at Derwent Lodge are commendable. They ensure that mum's health needs are met promptly and professionally. Additionally, the staff is readily available to address any concerns or queries that arise, making communication process smooth and reassuring. Furthermore, I appreciate the efforts of the management team in maintaining open communication with us. Regular updates and periodic meetings are organized to discuss care plans, any changes in medical conditions, and to seek feedback on the overall care provided.

Mum went into the care home in January 2021, a very difficult time, when visiting was not allowed. From the start we were kept up to date with Mum's care and kept in touch with her through phone calls and video calls with the Wellbeing Coordinator who throughout has made us feel included and reassured.
All the staff are friendly, caring and efficient. Mum is happy being part of the Derwent Lodge family.

Staff have been very helpful in accommodating my mother's needs, especially given that this is a care centre, not a rehab centre. Her only complaint is that hot meals are often cold by the time she is served. I have noticed a very friendly attitude from all staff to residents and visitors. The centre
is very clean and tidy.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My wife has been suffering from the sad illness of Alzheimer's and has been in Derwent Lodge for almost 3 years. We were made welcome from the first day which allayed my initial trepidation. I have nothing but admiration for the staff and management for their dedication which goes beyond the call of
duty.
Care of residents is foremost but the welfare of families is also considered. I casually remarked that our Golden Wedding Anniversary was imminent. Come the day, her room was decorated, cards from the staff and a cake for us. Totally unexpected and a lovely surprise. The Standard of care, food and cleanliness is very good. Coach has been provided for outings which sadly have been curtailed because of the pandemic.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.564)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.564) out of 10 for Derwent Lodge Care Centre is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 11 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 4.718 for Derwent Lodge Care Centre is calculated as follows: ( (99 Excellents x 5) + (27 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 131 Ratings = 4.718
  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 4.846 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Derwent Lodge Care Centre is based on 11 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 65 registered maximum number of service users is 13. 11 Positive Reviews ÷ 13 = 0.846
  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.
