Review from Jenny H (Sister of Resident) published on 22 March 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My family member became a resident at Derwent Lodge in January. He got well looked after and staff went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable, they would allow me to do a zoom call so I was able to see and speak to him which really helped as due to covid was not able to see them. My relative
is very happy in the home and I would highly recommend this home to anyone.

Current Review Score: 9.0 (9.046)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.0 (9.046) out of 10 for Derwent Lodge Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.3 out of 5 from 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 10 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 4.296 for Derwent Lodge Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (96 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (9 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) + (13 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 142 Ratings = 4.296
  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 4.75 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Derwent Lodge Nursing Home is based on 10 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 = 3.75
    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 46 registered maximum number of service users is 9.2, which has been reached with 10 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.

Job Title: Home Manager Joined: 2022

My name is Nicky. I have over 10 years of experience in the care sector, 5 of which have been in management.
I am very passionate about delivering a high standard of person-centred care and strive to achieve the best results in everything I do.


I am the new Registered Manager at Lezayre and I endeavour, with the help of my amazing team, to make the transition into a care home, may that be a short or long-term stay, the nicest possible experience.
