My mother has been a resident at Butterfly Lodge for more than two years now. The staff have always been amazing. This March it was my parent's anniversary and the staff went out of their way to contact my brother and I for photos and a little back story of their lives together. They asked my dad to
come up for a special lunch and they decorated my mum's room, had a special table set for the lunch with flowers and had the “jolly trolley” set up with a video showing all of their photos while playing their favourite old songs! We were blown away with this! There have been many other instances like this over the years. Kind, caring, and compassionate staff who work as a team to give the best care possible to their patients.

I have found the staff wonderfully supportive and helpful. They looked after Mum with respect and kindness.
We will forever be in your debt.
The room was warm and comfortable with lovely pictures on the wall. It was always clean and tidy.
We were very fortunate to have Mum placed with them.
We
could always ask any questions and were always treated well.
It was a home from home for Mum and she was always comfortable and well looked after.

The care and attention given to my sister in her time at Butterfly Lodge Nursing Home was second to none. By far the best home any of my relatives were in. The care given and the welcome to guests was always carried out with a friendly attitude and smile.

Mum has been at Butterfly Lodge since the summer. All the staff are so caring. Nothing is too much trouble. The family are able to visit at anytime and are made to feel very welcome, especially Dad who visits daily. We are kept up to date with Mum's changing needs and progress. There are many activities
which Mum is able to join in. The rooms are clean and bright and the food is amazing. When considering homes, we wanted to ensure Mum would obviously be safe but more importantly treated with care and compassion. We are confident we made the right choice.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father on two separate occasions boarded at Butterfly Lodge. The first visit was for three months, he was happy, he loved the trips and care team. On many occasions I would pop in and there would always be a member of staff having a chat with him in his room. He liked to stay in his room. On the
second occasion a year later Dad was end of life, he stayed for ten days, the care he received was amazing. We moved into Dad's room until he passed, we can't thank Butterfly Lodge enough for everything they did for Dad and us as a family.

Butterfly Lodge delivers exemplary care to clients. The managers, nurses, and care staff are absolutely wonderful. They are caring, compassionate, enabling and so kind. They treat my client as an individual and not part of a system. My client has improved beyond all recognition. I am so grateful for
making my client's life so special and for optimising her quality of life during her remaining days. Thank you.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My mother resides at this care home. She's been with Butterfly Lodge for a long while now. She wasn't sure of her surroundings and the people at first and kept asking to go home. A good few months had passed and she settled down quite well. Getting used to the staff and slowly making close friends.
She quite liked the activities co ordinator and has built a very good rapport with him. She loves musical activities and showcases her talent with much enjoyment despite her limiting condition. Music makers always seems to be a favourite activity for my mum and obviously was very popular with other residents. She enjoys going outside in the garden. The staff are very caring and fully understand everyone's illnesses and conditions with the best compassionate care. Management are very informative and do contact you with regular updates about your relatives with social media interaction and participation which is brilliant I must say with regular weekly photographs.
Reply from Clare Sinclair, Manager at Butterfly Lodge

I have always found the staff to be caring, considerate and kind to the residents. The residents have a variety of entertainment to enable social interaction and appear happy and content, which is so important.
I am always made to feel welcome by staff who understand how difficult it can be for family

Everyone up here is lovely. Grandad has been here for 3 months and is well cared for by all nurses. They have music on in evening to keep guests entertained. They have a pretend bar in the canteen so the old dears can pull a pint.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum had experience of a few homes, but never settled. After speaking to Butterfly Lodge about Mum's complex needs, they were very accommodating and agreed to Mum staying with them. The staff are friendly and always happy to help. I am kept informed on mum's health when needed and also when calling
them, they are happy to tell me how she's doing. In past homes, I have had to inform them when I would be visiting, but at Butterfly Lodge they are happy for visitors to turn up unannounced, this I find reassuring. They encourage residents to join in with activities and also take those abled out in the community. This is funded by the home, which shows they do care about those staying with them.

An absolutely incredible home. The care my nan receives is outstanding and I couldn't ask for anymore. The staff also provide support to all my family and go above and beyond to give any help they can. I can't thank the staff enough, for everything they do. It makes leaving my nan that little bit easier,
when you know they are being looked after by such lovely staff. Thank you.

My dear mum received wonderful care at Butterfly Lodge for over a year. The staff are incredibly caring and respectful of residents and they work in the most challenging conditions. I too, was treated well and with compassion, especially as Mum was receiving end-of-life care. The staff were there for
me too at the end and I knew they would take care of her. It may not be a glamorous environment, but the care is first-rate, which after all is the main thing anyone needs. Heart felt thanks to all staff.

Mum has been at Butterfly Lodge for almost 12 months. She is a very active lady and likes to have freedom to move around. This provides an element of independence for her, in a very safe and caring environment. She is supported by all the team at every level, who are very attentive and responsive. There
is always a desire to provide activities and events for the residents, to improve their experience and keep them both physically and mentally at the best they can be. The ethos for the Butterfly Lodge team is that Mum is an individual, with specific needs and personal preferences. These are always taken into account and every member of the team are respectful and create an environment that enables the family to be confident that she is very well cared for and is safe. Any changes in her, are acted on and monitored and any necessary action taken. In summary, they provide excellent care for Mum, peace of mind for the family and a team ethic, which is respectful and positive.

My mum has only been at the home for a couple of months and I am so pleased with the improvements I have seen in her already. Having been so worried about the effect of moving her from another care home, I now wish I had done it sooner. All the staff have been so welcome and friendly since Mum arrived.
I feel that my mum is well cared for and looked after and that I am kept up to date with any issues regarding her health. She has been on trips and has taken part in activities, which means so much. I am so grateful to everyone at Butterfly Lodge.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.891)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.891) out of 10 for Butterfly Lodge 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 27 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 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 4.891 for Butterfly Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (286 Excellents x 5) + (35 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 321 Ratings = 4.891
  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 Butterfly Lodge is based on 27 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 38 registered maximum number of service users is 7.6, which has been reached with 27 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.
