My Mother was in Kings Lodge for about 14 months and suffered from Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. She had a very pleasant room. It is a nice spacious home with plenty of natural light and easy for access. I have no complaints as the staff work very hard despite working such long hours, in difficult circumstances
and for low pay. Mum was relatively easy for staff to look after as her mental health went inwards and she was placid in nature. However, sadly her physical and mental health deteriorated very quickly. In her last few months she was not able to sit so permanently in bed and she could not eat or drink for herself and needed her food to be pureed. Mum needed 24/7 nursing care in order to keep her comfortable and to give her a reasonable quality of life. Mum passed away peacefully in her sleep on the 17th November 2015. The Manager is doing a great job and doing all the right things, he has a very challenging job but I am very grateful for the hard work.

My aunt moved her in July from a secure mental health hospital. She was made to feel welcome from the start and now says she finds her "New Hotel" very comfortable and I well looked after by all the staff.

My Mum has been there for more than a year - I have no complaints and am very grateful to all the staff and management for their care of my Mum - she has Alzheimer's with Parkinson's which is quite a toxic mix and in the space of a year mums mental and physical health has deteriorated but Kings Lodge
has responded extremely well to the changes and challenges that this presents. I appreciate how difficult it is for them as my my Mum is completely dependent upon their 24/7 care. The facility is lovely and kept nice and clean and staff are always ready to address any concerns that you have. I am very grateful to all the staff and the management for the wonderful care they have given to my Mum. Thank You

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.893)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.893) out of 10 for Kings Lodge 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 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 Kings Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (167 Excellents x 5) + (20 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 187 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 Kings Lodge is based on 16 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 77 registered maximum number of service users is 15.4, which has been reached with 16 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.
