Review from Kellie D (Daughter of Resident) published on 21 July 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our mother was only in Bartholamew Lodge for a short time.
She was treated with dignity, compassion and kindness from the moment she arrived until she passed away.
The staff showed immense patience and showed a genuine interest in her.
When she passed the staff showed dignity and respect and treated
her with the kindness she deserved.
We will be forever grateful to them during this difficult time.
We whole heartedly recommend Bartholamew Lodge to any family who are looking for a caring, respectful environment.
The staff and their manager are a credit to the health care profession and Bartholamew. Nothing was ever too much trouble. The manager will go above and beyond to help you and your relative and reassure you that they are safe and cared for.

It was truly a privilege to care for your mum, and we feel honoured to have been part of her journey.Our team genuinely enjoyed getting to know her, and we will always cherish the moments we shared with both her and yourselves. The strong connection we built with you made it feel as though we had known you for much longer, and the open, heartfelt communication between us made all the difference.

Review from Emily W (Granddaughter of Resident) published on 18 December 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The level of care that my nan's received whilst here was nothing short of amazing, they were respectful from the day she entered and continued to be even after my nan died whilst there. Her dignity and care were always a top priority for every member of staff there and this also extended to family members
who were visiting, staff knew us all by name and made sure our needs were also met whilst there, even offering hugs and emotional support whilst I felt overwhelmed. I truly cannot thank the outstanding staff and their care and compassion enough, they really are a superb team who deserve great recognition for the level of care that is shown at all times to the entire family and not just the patients in their care, it really does take a special person to work in a care home and Bartholamew Lodge Nursing Home showcased this every day. Thank you to you all.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
All the staff were extremely kind, pleasant and helpful. You were made to feel welcome and nothing was too much trouble. The home itself was clean and fresh, nice, bright and airy. Mom-in-law was clean and dressed and taken out of her room and included in activities. She seemed to be well taken care
of. The thing that stood out the most was the staff seemed happy and this goes a long way to make it a good place to work in and live in.

I only visited twice as I was disturbed by seeing my mother in palliative care but the staff were kind and understanding. The staff were caring and it showed which is very good for pre-grieving family.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My aunty has been a resident at Bartholomew Lodge now for one year. As a nurse of nineteen years and a Deputy Manager in a care home myself I am more than happy with the care provided to my aunt. She is always clean and well presented. She loves the food and all of the staff are very friendly and kind
towards her. Whenever there has been a problem this has been actioned swiftly. The building (although run down a little) is always clean, warm and smells nice. Do not let first appearances put you off placing your loved one into Bartholomew Lodge as the love and care they demonstrate towards their residents is lovely to see.
Reply from Petty Mhlanga, Manager at Bartholamew Lodge Nursing Home

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I am extremely happy with the care being provided to my uncle by all the staff at Bartholamew Lodge.
This home has given my uncle a life again; he is able to sit out in a chair, which he was unable to do previously, and all of his needs are met. Whenever I visit, he is content, clean and always looks
smart.
The staff are all friendly and make you feel welcome; the manager and nurses are approachable, and you can talk to them at any time.
The activities coordinator provides person-centred activities for all.
The building itself is always very clean and has a homely feel.
I would recommend Bartholamew Lodge to anyone seeking care for a loved one.
Thank you all!

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.682)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.682) out of 10 for Bartholamew Lodge Nursing 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 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 11 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 4.682 for Bartholamew Lodge Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (92 Excellents x 5) + (33 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 129 Ratings = 4.682
  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 Bartholamew Lodge Nursing Home is based on 11 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 30 registered maximum number of service users is 6, which has been reached with 11 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.
