Lyndon Hall is a reasonably modern building, clean and tidy. The staff were friendly, although I noted a lot of time was spent completing paperwork, rather than interacting with residents.
However, Dad's needs seemed to be met otherwise and we were happy with the personal care provided.
Perhaps more
activities could be arranged.

Reply from Clare Sheehan, Careline Advisor at Lyndon Hall Care Home

Thank you for your kind comments overall regarding the Home and staff. We are working towards improving the activities and hope to have a full programme of events each month for residents and families to take part in. If you have any suggestions, we would be happy to hear them. We do have to complete records for all residents throughout the day, but this should be completed in real time to ensure that staff have plenty of time to spend with the Residents. I am sorry that you have not found this to be the case. I will ensure that the staff take this on board and work towards more productive time management.

Communication needs improvement - eg to resident. Needs more activity for resident. When the weather is good the ones that are capable should be taken outside in the garden.

Reply from Clare Sheehan, Careline Advisor at Lyndon Hall Care Home

Thank you for your comments. We are working on the communication with Residents, relatives and staff to ensure that everyone connected to Lyndon Hall, know what’s happening and what is planned for the future. Activities is a high priority, and I am personally working with the Activities Coordinator, to plan meaningful, positive activities for all Residents. I agree that when the weather is fine, we should have more outside activities and we are looking to build a herb garden for the Residents to manage and enjoy. We are having regular relatives meetings, to enable myself and my team ensure that communication between us and our Resident’s families is optimised.

My Dad has been at Lyndon Hall about 3 months, during that time I have seen things improve.
I am satisfied with Dad's care and getting to know the staff.
I do feel that permanent staff do a fantastic job but sometimes not given the support they deserve.
The food is getting better, but I would like
to see more fruit/salad on the tea trolley.
I feel things are getting better and look forward to the coming months.
Staff are always very friendly and welcoming.

Reply from Clare Sheehan, Careline Advisor at Lyndon Hall Care Home

Thank you for your kind comments. I am pleased that you have seen an improvement in the Home and will ensure that this continues over the coming months. I will discuss with the Chef the option of having fruit and salad available for Residents at tea time, in addition to the salad option which is always available at lunchtime. We are constantly recruiting staff to ensure continuity for Residents and stability within the Home.

I have had a wonderful experience from all the staff from reception, carers, nursing and management staff. Everyone has been very supportive in these difficult times with my father. The care home has its ups and downs but that's part and parcel of life. Everyone is human one can only try to do their
best. HC One Lyndon Hall has done their best in looking after dad.

Some care staff are excellent, some care staff are very idle. Summer fayre was a great success. Thanks to some staff, anything I bring to the attention of some staff it is dealt with right away. But some don't care, shouldn't be in the job. Sorry but speak as I find.

Reply from Clare Sheehan, Careline Advisor at Lyndon Hall Care Home

Thank you for your comments. I am aware that we have a few staff who require encouraging and managing to understand the role that they have undertaken. We are supporting them with training and guidance from more senior staff to supervise their work activities and ensure that our Residents get the best and kindest care possible.

I have had issues in the past with care but since action taken, it has improved. Uncles mood depends on staff working on that day.
Some staff are more attentive than others. Hoping new manager stays longer than previous ones as seem to change more often than service users do so no continuity.
Activities
do take place and good when do but would like to see service users go out more.
Overall I'm happier with care than I was last year.

Reply from Clare Sheehan, Careline Advisor at Lyndon Hall Care Home

Thank you for your comments. As the new home manager I am working with colleagues and our wellbeing coordinators to improve the amount and range of activities we offer our residents. We are glad to hear that you feel happier than you did with the care provided here at Lyndon Hall. I am glad hear that you and your relative can see improvements in the home and that you are happier than you have been with the care provided and way that the home is being managed.

Staff are friendly and caring and will always try to solve problems quickly.
The care and cleanliness are very good.
A few times the home has been slightly understaffed but on the whole, things run smoothly and residents are well looked after.

My mother has been in Lyndon Hall Care Home for two and a half years. Overall the care has been very good. The food and cleanliness is excellent. Mum is much the same as two and a half years ago. I would recommend Lyndon Hall to anyone.

Staff are friendly and approachable. My brother has changed since being here. He is happy and chats a lot more - staff have a lot of time for the residents. My son also commented on how he had changed since being at Lyndon Hall.
Keep up the excellent work!

Whilst the carers do their best, I find that there are residents on Rose wing that need more care/attention (one to one). This takes time off the other residents. Some are too volatile to be left unattended (not enough staff to cope). Refreshment facilities poor at times (no cups). Residents can be
left unattended in the lounge. Staff do their best and are always pleasant but not enough at times, leaving not enough time to care properly. Management seem to pay more attention to unnecessary things (decorations etc), not at what really will matter, like activities where residents can get involved on a regular basis

Reply from Clare Sheehan, Care Advisor at Lyndon Hall Care Home

Thank you for your feedback. Currently, there are three care staff on Rose Unit to support 19 Residents. The activity programme is under review at the moment to ensure we offer stimulating activities. The care staff have time to play a full part in this too in encouraging more activity in the unit. Cups are stored in the kitchenette area, however, if these supplies run low staff can ensure they get replenished.

My mother who was in the home for nearly 2 years and who passed recently was 95. I myself can only speak very highly of this home, my mother was very well looked after. The staff were very caring and looked after her very well. The staff on the 'Poppy' unit were one of the best.

The management of our sister was outstanding, nursing and medical care was provided by compassionate staff, her carers more than people who helped they were her friends. When visiting our sister you were always greeted with friendly faces and a friendly smile. The food was very good and served in brilliant
dining rooms. The building was constantly being kept cleaned to a high standard. Very secure and safe care.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.815)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.815) out of 10 for Lyndon Hall Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 21 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 4.815 for Lyndon Hall Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (199 Excellents x 5) + (34 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 238 Ratings = 4.815

  • 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 Lyndon Hall Care Home is based on 21 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 80 registered maximum number of service users is 16, which has been reached with 21 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.
