My mother was in Moorgate Lodge for two and a half weeks nursing and end-of-life care. Without exception, the staff were helpful, friendly, knowledgeable, compassionate and open and frank. They handled all the end-of-life care with a local hospice and went to great lengths to ensure Mum was clean, comfortable
and pain-free in her final days. They also ensured we were well-informed at all times.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum was put in this home in September 2023, until she passed away earlier in March 2024. The care and attention she received were excellent from day one. The staff from the manager down to the cleaners was 100% all the time. My mum never wanted anything. The cleanliness at the home was terrific and
the care staff and nurses were terrific. The food she received was always very good and had so many choices. As a visitor, we were always made so welcome by all the staff. I would definitely recommend this home to anyone looking for a permanent home.

Having to choose a care home for a parent is so very difficult. Did we choose the right one - yes we did. The care and commitment of the staff was absolutely wonderful, they cannot be thanked enough. Dad was treated with great dignity throughout his stay, right until the very end. Thank you.

Review from Christine B (Sister of Resident) published on 4 January 2024 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My experience is as a visitor and not at meal times so I cannot comment on food and drink, but my sister had problems eating and drinking and the staff were very good in coaxing her over this period. All the staff I have met have been very patient with all the residents as far as I can see. The home
is very clean and the management very approachable. I cannot comment on value for money as this is dealt with by another member of the family.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Moorgate Lodge provided my mum with a safe and caring place for the remaining two months of her life. Mum repeatedly said how much she liked the staff caring for her and appreciated the calm place her room offered. This was visible in how contented she looked, and we as a family cannot praise enough
the Lodge team who showed a considerate commitment towards providing a high quality of care. This provided the opportunity for us as a family to spend priceless time with out Mum and leaves us with a set of memories that will help us come to terms with our loss.

Moorgate Lodge team are diamonds. The best a nursing home can be - they even came to my sister's funeral in their immaculate blue uniforms. They knew my sister's needs and catered for her every need in the short time she was with them (since March 2023). We only wish it could have been longer - not
only did they care for her, they cared for us. We became their family, they became ours. We shall miss our sister, we shall also miss all at Moorgate Lodge - diamonds in every sense! Thank you!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
After a lengthy period in hospital and other care facilities, with varying levels of standards of care, my sister-in-law was fortunate to be allocated a place in Moorgate Lodge several weeks ago. Her care has been exceptional, with all staff seeming to have got to know her well and responding to her
needs. Despite her double incontinence she has always appeared to be clean and comfortable. More importantly, she is happy that she is 'home' at last.

My first impression was excellent regarding the building and staff. Over time my opinion has not changed. The staff are approachable, friendly and very professional. The food is plentiful and has a good variety and good quality. I would recommend Moorgate Lodge to families that need this high quality
of care.

From day one of Mum's moving into Moorgate Lodge, we knew we had found the correct care for Mum. The home is beautiful. The staff, well, I can't praise them enough. Caring and professional, keep us informed at every stage of Mum's care. The rapper Mum has with everyone is a delight to see. I cannot
recommend this place enough.

From the moment we walked into Moorgate Lodge, we felt welcome. The manager was professional and knowledgeable and answered all our questions. The care given to my father was outstanding. The staff went above and beyond their duties. Moorgate Lodge felt like a "home", not an institution. Staff supported
my elderly mother and the family when they visited with my father with such kindness. Thank you for making my father's remaining months so comfortable.

I find the staff are all very caring and treat the residents and visitors very well. At times it appears that there is a shortage of staff. Perhaps there could be more things done to stimulate the patients instead of just sitting and watching TV, although I appreciate that not all residents want to
do anything or are capable of doing other things.

Review from Ian G (Friend of Resident) published on 17 November 2022 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I visit my friend several times each week. On all occasions it is apparent that he is being well cared for, regularly washed and changed and kept as comfortable as possible.
2 members of staff have become very friendly with my friend and go above and beyond to make sure he is looked after.
On the
very few occasions that my friend has had an issue, it has been dealt with promptly and fully.
Although he would obviously rather not be in the home, my friend is well-settled and comfortable in his surroundings. This is mainly due to the care staff who look after him.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.726)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.726) out of 10 for Moorgate Lodge 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 30 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 29 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 4.726 for Moorgate Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (296 Excellents x 5) + (39 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (12 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 351 Ratings = 4.726
  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 Moorgate 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:

    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 56 registered maximum number of service users is 11.2, which has been reached with 29 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.
