Review from Heather M (Daughter of Resident) published on 18 March 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I would like to say that all the staff who have been looking after my Dad since August 2018 have been lovely and attentive to him. The care home has a wonderful atmosphere even though it is one of the smaller homes in the area. This just means it is more focused on the residents. They have been through
a bit of an upheaval whilst Dad has been there with some management changes, and the loss of the nursing staff, however, standards have been kept, and he has been well looked after.
This last week when my Dad passed away; all the staff were super attentive and very compassionate, having always treated him with the utmost dignity, they excelled themselves on Wednesday during his final hours.
Utmost gratitude to all at Millreed for all the loving care and attention they have lavished upon my Dad in his final months.
It is truly appreciated and you will always be in my heart.

Review from Laurence B (Son of Resident) published on 21 February 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum has been at Millreed Lodge for about 2 years now, I used to be an adult general nurse, my wife is a practising General Medical Practitioner (GP) in the local area.
I consider myself fortunate that mum is only 4 miles from where we live, I consider both mum and I doubly fortunate that she is
being looked after by the kind staff at Millreed Lodge, who have been attentive, unfailingly friendly and accommodating, but most of all showing respect and care for my mother who has vascular dementia.
Millreed Lodge is a place you can call home, it is cosy, homely, and the right size not to be overwhelming, the food is excellent for my mum who is celiac and they have catered very well for her strict gluten-free diet.
The staff always greet visitors with a smile, they communicate any changes to her care and when I phone they are aware of how mum is fairing on any given day. I would not hesitate to recommend Millreed Lodge.

I was very happy with the standard of the care that my friend received whilst she was in Millreed Lodge. I always got the impression that the staff couldn't do enough for her. They were always happy to help and definitely seemed to care about my friends wellbeing.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.473)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.473) out of 10 for Millreed 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 11 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 4.723 for Millreed Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (111 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 130 Ratings = 4.723
  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 Millreed Lodge 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 36 registered maximum number of service users is 7.2, 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.
