My mum received end of life care in Moorgate Lodge from June until she passed away at the beginning of October. The care she received was never less than outstanding and the staff were some of the kindest and most dedicated professionals you could wish to meet. I would just like to say thank you for
everything they did to make my mum comfortable during her stay. Way beyond any expectations.

Moorgate Lodge is a welcoming, clean, happy and pleasant home. Every single staff member I have come into contact with are cheerful and friendly, professional, accommodating and genuinely appear happy in their work. From the day of my mother's arrival, she has been treated as an individual, with dignity
and respect by staff who genuinely do care and will go the extra mile to ensure people are feeling comfortable, happy and settled. Thank you to everybody at Moorgate Lodge for all your care, hard work and support. It is greatly appreciated.

My mother was transferred to Moorgate Lodge care home after a spell in hospital. From the very first day, she was treated with kindness, dignity and wonderful care from the amazing staff. Mum is very settled here and it is our wish as a family that she remains here as her permanent home. The staff are
always cheerful and extremely kind and nothing is too much trouble. This home is a happy comfortable environment.

Review from Donna S (Daughter of Resident) published on 30 November 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I cannot rate this nursing home high enough. The care my dearly beloved mum received from her first arriving at Moorgate Lodge right up to her sad passing was truly second to none. She was treated with the utmost respect and dignity by all staff, who went above and beyond to ensure she maintained her
usual high personal standard. I found it reassuring and heartwarming how much they genuinely care, and could not have been more relieved and grateful that she was in their care.


I, like most daughters, wanted to care for Mum at home, though over time it became more and more apparent that in the best interest of her welfare, her needs could only be met by her going into a care home. And as my dad had some 10 years earlier had had the best care, she had always said that should the time come that she need to go into a nursing home, Moorgate Lodge was the place she wanted to go.


I now have the peace of mind knowing that my precious mum had the best care possible.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
When a resident has had her hair done at the hairdressers, she doesn't need her hair washing again until the next hair appointment which is every week, otherwise waste of money and frizzy hair!
One more small point, meals are fabulous but sometimes some vegetables are not cooked enough and so cannot
be eaten. Most old people have dentures! These are valuable points but overall if this is where I was to end my days, I would be quite happy.

My dad had the best people looking after him throughout his stay; I cannot praise them enough! The home is clean and secure. I knew he was in the best place throughout the pandemic. I was always made to feel welcome when I visited my dad, and I was most impressed with how welcome they made his sister
whenever she visited. All in all, a wonderful establishment!

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.724)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.724) 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 28 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 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 4.724 for Moorgate Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (280 Excellents x 5) + (34 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (12 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 330 Ratings = 4.724
  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 27 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 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 27 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.
