I collect a resident from your facility 3 times a week and find all the staff and the premises to be excellent. Any 'Good' review below I have not experienced, but would expect as the ones I have are excellent.

We took our mother to visit her friend who is in EachStep Lockwood for a short stay. Everything we saw and experienced could not have been improved. The staff in particular were both caring and helpful.

Upon visiting the home, we found the manager and staff to be very welcoming. They put us at ease and assured us of the professional care and attention our friend would receive. We felt they had compassion and understanding of his circumstances. So far the care he has received has been professional and
of an excellent standard. The staff do an amazing job!!

Review from Beverly C (Friend of Resident) published on 25 April 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Pleasantly surprised. I previously had both parents in this home. My mother died there eighteen months ago. Although she had good relationships with staff, her care left much to be desired. I continue to visit an old friend and was there yesterday.
What a difference! The staff were visible and interacting
with residents. They were polite and responsive.
The residents were clean, tidy and appropriately dressed, all wearing slippers, hair combed and looking well cared for. The atmosphere was positive.
It appears that much effort has been made to achieve an overall improvement and this was very evident. Well done.
Reply from Phil Benson, Executive Director of Operations at EachStep Lockwood

Thank you for your kind words and recognition of the work of the team in the home. They have been working tirelessly on improving the experience for everyone at the home and will be thrilled to read your recognition of this. We are striving to ensure that Norman Hudson provides the very best support for our residents.

Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
This place is an absolute disgrace. It stinks, everything goes missing, the bedding has holes in it. Poo smeared plates in the visitor lounge, lost shoes, spectacles, and hearing aid.
Some of the staff are nice but the bosses are arrogant. They have spent money on expensive cars and obviously as little
as possible elsewhere.

Norman Hudson is a service that looks after very poorly and confused people some who have severe dementia. The staff do an amazing job which is not always recognised and people don't always get to see the hard work that is put in and all the things they have to deal with on a day to day basis. I could
not do this job myself and they deserve all the praise they can get for all of the hard work that they do. The care and love they provide is second to none and should be recognised. thank you.

The care my mum received was excellent, nothing was too much trouble. I had weekly meetings with the manager and head of care. My mum could be a little firecracker but the staff managed her, the team does an amazing job caring for difficult residents.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Dad lived at Norman Hudson from 2015 until we sadly lost him due to the dementia in April. We were always truly amazed by how hard the staff worked and how much love they showed all the residents - they were a second family to Dad. The home has a very happy atmosphere. They always looked after me, my
Mum and my sisters as well and were very supportive. They treated Dad's last days with such love and made an extremely difficult time as easy as possible. Thank you to everyone at Norman Hudson.

Current Review Score: 9.0 (9.046)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.0 (9.046) out of 10 for EachStep Lockwood 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 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.3 out of 5 from 6 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 4.732 for EachStep Lockwood is calculated as follows: ( (52 Excellents x 5) + (19 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 71 Ratings = 4.732
  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 4.314 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for EachStep Lockwood is based on 6 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 = 3.6
    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 42 registered maximum number of service users is 8.4. 6 Positive Reviews ÷ 8.4 = 0.714
  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.
