My experience is that the carers and staff are all extremely kind and caring to my aunt. She is clean, happy and so well looked after. Her room is clean and tidy. Everyone is helpful to our family and we are so happy we chose Barchester Chalfont Lodge Care Home to care for our aunt.

Thank goodness you are taking care of my dad. He has had a hard time in other places and really, you have rescued him. Hos one to one carers are strong, stable, quiet and kind and he likes them. Thanks very much indeed: I hope he will soon be able to participate in some of the enjoyable activities.
Living in Scotland, my mind is more at rest knowing my dad is here.

I attended the BBQ on Sunday, the food was beautiful and there was a good selection. The staff were very kind and attentive. You can see that they care about the residents. I can see that my grandad is very happy here. The entertainment could have been better. As a vocalist/performer myself, I wasn't
impressed with the lady who performed, unfortunately.

I visited an old friend of mine for the day who lives at Chalfont Lodge. I was blown away by how happy he is! To quote him 'It's like living in a Hotel!' He is not wrong! The staff were so attentive and so welcoming. We enjoyed a really lovely three-course lunch on the terrace and we were able to catch
up on old times. The food was superb and I certainly can see why my friend is so happy there! He told me how he spends his days, doing all sorts of activities and singing. He also said he has made some good friends and introduced me to some other residents. The grounds of the Home make this place very special. I am so glad my old friend is being so well looked after. Thank you.

My mum passed away in July after two of the most wonderful years at Barchester Chalfont Lodge Care Home. We were welcomed as a family from day one and made to feel like we were at home. I cannot fault Chalfont Lodge. From the wonderful staff to the services and extramural activities. The staff are angels
and prove that not all heroes wear capes or wings. Thank you everyone for taking such good care of my beloved mum. We, as a family, cannot thank everyone enough.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
A very pleasant environment and room well-furnished with good quality and taste. Reception excellent. The administrator, in particular, day staff and catering are all good, some very good and empathetic. Physiotherapist excellent. Also, assistant first-class. Night staff generally a little more inefficient
mostly due to misunderstandings although one or two excellent.
All in all, a very enjoyable visit despite difficulties with pain management initially.
Returned home satisfied. Thank you.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have been a resident at Barchester Chalfont Lodge Care Home for many years and that says a lot. The home has given me a 'home' over a long time, providing excellent care and a place of sanctuary. In each department, whether it be from cleaning to caring, all the staff are so polite, kind, helpful
and above all, extremely professional. The home is situated in such ideal surroundings and it is such a joy for me to be able to look out my window and have a view of nothing but greenery, flowers, trees and much wildlife. Also, to be able to be outside, relishing this and relaxing in the sun. Moments spent in the company of the other residents, building relationships, making friends is such a huge part of life here, which is so important for me and fundamental. Being involved with a wide range of activities gives me a lot of pleasure, joining a group or just watching is such fun. Above all, the home is managed extremely well and nothing is too much trouble, all my needs are met. All the staff are incredible.

A few weeks ago I decided, after reviewing other homes, that Chalfont Lodge was the best one available. My mother is nearly 95 years old, with Alzheimer's. The staff here are all, without exception, fantastic. I feel very comfortable leaving my mother here. If anyone would like to call me for references,
please feel free. I would 100% recommend this nursing home.

From our very first meeting with the team, we experience nothing only wonderful care and consideration.

When it came to end-of-life care, the team were organised and communicated with us with

The team at Barchester Chalfont Lodge Care Home took incredible care of my mum during her time of need. She was, unfortunately, diagnosed with stage 4 cancer and we contacted the care home to look after her.
They were wonderful, so kind and caring and recently made my mum feel safe and cared for.

Review from Charles N (Brother-in-law of Resident) published on 6 June 2024 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My sister-in-law has been a resident at Chalfont Lodge for 20 years, during that time she has been consistently well cared for. Over time her personal circumstances have changed, but the kind staff at Chalfont have adapted well to her growing dependence and their care and concern for her is evident.
They communicate well with us over any issues, and we are aware of the well-kept records covering all aspect of her situation and care. We are regularly involved in discussing her care plan and needs.
Previously the managers were changed far too frequently. The current manager has been in place for several years and the benefits are evident. The quality and consistency of the facilities, activities and general atmospherics has visibly improved in recent times.

Speaking for myself and all family members, we are so pleased to have found a home for my sister and such general excellence. After five years of home care, when we knew that we could no longer care for her, we have found a home totally suited to her needs.
We genuinely feel that, in her declining
years, we have done the best for my sister in terms of care, comfort and services.

My mother, with severe dementia, was a resident at Barchester Chalfont Lodge Care Home for several years and it was the most settled she has been in a care home.

What a wonderful experience Barchester Chalfont Lodge Care Home has been! Excellent, the very highest quality all-round. The food is excellent and varied and plentiful, so dieting her is very difficult but who cares, I'll just have to go to the next size in dresses, trousers, skirts etc.
Although the
food is plentiful, the portions are small and not overwhelming.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.905)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.905) out of 10 for Barchester Chalfont Lodge Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 70 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 70 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 4.905 for Barchester Chalfont Lodge Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (756 Excellents x 5) + (71 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 831 Ratings = 4.905
  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 Chalfont Lodge Care Home is based on 70 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 106 registered maximum number of service users is 21.2, which has been reached with 70 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.

I work closely with my clients and their families, as well as other healthcare professionals to provide holistic treatment in order to achieve the maximum functional results and help clients to achieve their goals.

Job Title: Music Therapist Joined: 2023

Hi, my name is Isabel but go by Izzy. I qualified as a Music Therapist in 2015 from Anglia Ruskin University and lived and worked for some years in Cambridge. I completed my second master's in Mental Health Science in 2020 whilst living in France before moving to Bucks to work across three NHS hospitals specialising in dementia and rehabilitation. I am passionate about the power of music and music therapy for older people and those living with dementia, and about strengthening connections between research and practice. As well as working for Barchester I run community choirs and teach the piano locally and in my spare time, I enjoy yoga and spending time outdoors.
