Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My father had end-of-life palliative care at Midfield Lodge for a few months earlier this year. The staff were compassionate, engaged and friendly. The food quality was good and the rooms clean. There were good activities on offer and a reasonable staff ratio. In difficult circumstances, they did a
valuable, expert and kind job.

The support offered to us as a family at a very hard time was amazing.
Thank you to all the staff.
The recent refurbishment has lifted the home.
Open visiting and the chance to stay with our relative overnight at this difficult time was just what we needed.

Friendly, caring staff, many of who have worked at Midfield Lodge for some time, made for a great environment for my relative to see out her final months. The level of care was so heartening it meant that the family had no concerns about the choice of care home, knowing that she was in good hands. The
home provided all that we could have asked for, which was especially appreciated as Covid was still an issue to the outside world during her time there. Grateful thanks from the family.

In January my husband had a chest infection, he deteriorated and was taken to the hospital, where he spent 6 days having treatment. The staff's speedy action in getting him into the hospital is the reason he's still here.
I can't thank them enough. His care and wellbeing are wonderful.
He has been
at Midfield Lodge Care Home since May 2022 and I'm thankful he's there. His care has been excellent and the staff are brilliant.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
During the four week stay my father in law had for end of life care was fantastic, the senior nurse, night nurse, the care team and the administrator really was all amazing, they was friendly, chatty, always made you feel welcome, and most importantly nothing was too much trouble. The attention, care,
compassion and dignity, given to my father in law and our family during the difficult time was incredible. They always kept you informed and would put you at ease and answer any questions you had.
I cannot thank them enough for how accommodating they was to all the family and how well they looked after us as a family also.
It was lovely seeing the residents interacting with the staff and doing different activities and tasks.
Quite a few of the staff have been at Midfield Lodge Care Home a long time and that says something.

Today's visit was for my mother's hundredth birthday and the staff were magnificent and done her proud.
The staff also arranged for the mayor to attend and Mum was overwhelmed and loved his visit.
Big thank you to all staff who put balloons and cards on display and also to the person who made a wonderful
birthday cake.
I know Mum didn’t want a fuss but she thoroughly enjoyed all what the staff did for her, so thank you.
Thanks to all the other residents who made birthday cards for her.
Thank You again.

My mum spent just over 8 weeks here at Midfield Lodge as an end-of-life patient.
She was given all the care and attention she needed and more all within a friendly and patient-focused environment. The care staff were amazing nothing was too much trouble.
Her room had all the facilities needed and
was always kept clean and tidy.
Thank you to all.

Thank you for the excellent care received by my husband during the last month of his life. As well as catering to his many needs with good humour and compassion, they ensured that he had meals and drinks that he could enjoy consuming. All the staff were friendly and compassionate towards the family
during our difficult times and kept us going with coffee, cake and biscuits and were always ready to answer any questions we might have. Although my husband was too ill to take part in the activities, he appreciated the quiet, restful atmosphere and the ever cheerful staff.

My brother has been a resident at Midfield Lodge for over 12 months.
I can not praise the staff enough for their care and kindness to both my brother and us as a family.
The care home is well-maintained, and the rooms are spotless.
Thank you for everything.

All staff I came into contact with were welcoming, friendly and keen both to help me understand the current situation of my friend and to hear about her life before this illness. The care home seemed light and airy, well maintained and friendly. My friend was comfortable, relaxed and appreciative of
the kindness surrounding her.

Thanks to the team you are all amazing and Mum loved it there. You were all so kind to her, One member of staff even accepted that Mum called him by a nickname. You do a super job, and one staff member, in particular, is such a special person to her. If you need those socks sorting again just shout.

My mother has her last few days of life at Midfield Lodge Oakington. The staff were amazing very attentive to my mum and family visiting. Every single member of the team were so helpful and kind. Mum couldn't have been any happier in her last few days and hours of her life with the help of the whole
team at Midfield Lodge.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My husband went into Midfield Lodge for respite in mid November 2021, I cannot praise the staff enough for the care and friendship both he and I received. He sadly passed away in mid January, rather suddenly and the support I was given was remarkable - so kind, caring and total understanding of my feelings.
I cannot recommend Midfield highly enough. Staff are friendly, informative and understanding of their residents and their relative's varied needs.
I have a good understanding of the quality of care, my sister had been a resident for 4 years, and I was impressed enough to ask them to care for my husband as well. Thank you to every one of the staff.

Everyone is friendly and helpful. Food - more than I can consume and always with a choice. The room is excellent and compact and I've an excellent room overlooking the gazebo so I can watch the squirrels and rabbits just like home.
There seems no restrictions on visitors other than the usual COVID
test on entering. The amount of time my visitor can stay is unlimited unlike where my husband is. Brilliant!

Not the smartest of homes, but they do what really matters. The senior nurses lead their team with great emotional intelligence, so the residents are understood as people. This plus compassionate and technically excellent physical care add up to an experience I would recommend.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.727)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.727) out of 10 for Midfield Lodge Care Home 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 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 20 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 4.727 for Midfield Lodge Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (175 Excellents x 5) + (42 Goods x 4) + (10 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 227 Ratings = 4.727
  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 Midfield Lodge Care Home is based on 20 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 61 registered maximum number of service users is 12.2, which has been reached with 20 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.
