It was with great regret it was felt that my mum needed 24-hour care. Given this, we have been pleased with the care and treatment she has received. Management along with all the staff have shown us the greatest respect and empathy whilst we go through this last part of mum's life.

I haven’t seen my brother since lockdown. Everyone is tested for Covid and isolated. The home was brilliant at making sure residents are tested for Covid before leaving hospital. The staff have gone over and above when looking after my brother. I can’t recommend this home enough.

We were very satisfied with the care and attention mum received at Moorgate Lodge. The only issue we had was the condition of her room which we felt was in need of a makeover.

My father chose Moorgate Lodge in March 2018 after a visit. He was impressed by the friendly, homely feeling and the large room that would allow him to take a few of his own things. He never looked back, always praised the staff and joined in with some of the activities. We were supported during his
end of life care and he passed peacefully and with dignity in June 2020.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mother-in-law moved in early February.
The manager and staff were very helpful throughout that difficult process lending support and guidance. Once in the home, that care continued, both in their approach to my mother-in-law and in allowing and enabling us to get her settled, to make her surroundings
as familiar as possible.
The Virus then started to impact and by the end of February, they were taking action and locked down early March.
We have continued to be in contact via phone and grateful for continued remote support in answering questions and helping mother-in-law to keep in daily contact.

The home and its residents are always spotless and I have been impressed by the fact that never once in my visits have I encountered that stale smell which seems to go with the territory in some other care homes I have visited. It is a credit to the staff that they keep it this way. Staff are kind,
caring, friendly and quickly spot any signs of stress or health deterioration, which is not the report one gets from some homes, even ones with high ratings. I trust that situation is prevalent throughout this group. Also good value for money. I have read the full CQC reprot and agree entirely with its findings.

Review from Laura W (Granddaughter of Resident) published on 28 June 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Over the last 14 months, the staff at Moorgate Lodge have cared for my grandmother. We couldn’t have asked for a more caring and compassionate team of staff. The little things meant so much to her and to us, painting her nails, buying dog treats for our pets who my grandmother loved visiting her and
even the respect shown as we passed the home in the funeral procession yesterday as they all stood outside and waved their last goodbyes to the woman we loved.


Literally, every one of them took the time and effort to speak to us, update us and to provide the best level of care we could ask for her. So thank you, Moorgate Lodge, from the bottom of my heart.

Staff are outstandingly compassionate and friendly to both Mum and her family.
They show great care in all interactions and listen attentively to any interaction.
I could never praise them enough for their professionalism and the warmth and support they show to us all.
Simply brilliant, all staff
are always happy and helpful. They treat everyone with dignity and respect and make us all feel valued.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
As a daughter-in-law of a reluctant nursing care service user, I can honestly say - the staff at Moorgate Lodge are AMAZING!! No question of a doubt, the home would have been preferable for parent-in-law, but NOT viable. Staff were incredibly welcoming and went above and beyond. Quality of parent-in-law's
life GREATLY improved whilst housed at Moorgate. Care & activities provided were fabulous. Parent-in-law had everything facilitated. Nothing was too much trouble. Parent-in-law was cared for until their last breath in the most beautiful way. My only complaint is there is no ‘staff social fund’ that family members can contribute to! The lodge is a home and the staff treat service users like family yet their approach around visiting family - purely professional (they are a second family to service users - in the BEST possible way). THOROUGHLY recommended. Facilities are great, but the staff make it amazing! THANK YOU for all your care, help and support. From our family to yours.

My mum has been a resident of Moorgate Lodge for 7 months.
From the first day of residency, she has been treated with care and dignity.
Even though my mum couldn't speak due to having a stroke we knew as a family that she loved the staff.
They all went above and beyond not only to care for my mum
but also to care for us when we visited every day.

They are great with all the residents and provide a warm and happy welcome whenever visiting my grandma.
They go the extra mile for every single resident at Moorgate.

Mum has been at Moorgate Lodge for just over 7 years. Her care during this time has been excellent. I asked mum to help me write this review so these are her words. I feel safe and secure, the people who look after me are lovely. The food is good and there are plenty of activities if you want to do
them. My room is a little bit small but it's ok. Its nice and clean. I like living here.

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.
