Hello Janette- I'm very sorry to hear you had a poor experience whilst being in this home. The home is now under new management as Butterfly Lodge and as this complaint was related to November last year up until February this year I do not have any information regarding this. However, I can assure you that the new team in place is working well and we received a Good in all areas from CQC. Again I apologise for the experience you felt you had before my time and we wish you well for the future. A.Wiseman-Bradbury, Registered Manager

My father had dementia and a stroke that left him severely disabled - he was here from Jan until he died this week. Throughout this time and, in particular, at the end of his life, the care was exceptional-
If you have a relative who requires care from a well trained, kind and committed team, I can't recommend this place enough. You hear many bad stories but this place flies in the face of that, faultless and so grateful for the care provided to my father in his last months!

Thank you so much for your kind words. Were so pleased that the hard work that the staff do shows through and can be recognised. We are currently obtaining quotes to uplift the building's décor.

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.855) out of 10 for Butterfly 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 29 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 29 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.
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 4.855 for Butterfly Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (295 Excellents x 5) + (48 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 344 Ratings = 4.855
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 Butterfly Lodge is based on 29 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 38 registered maximum number of service users is 7.6, which has been reached with 29 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.
