Review from Audrey F (Sister of Resident) published on 20 June 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
When viewing for a nursing home for my sister, Castleford Lodge made me very welcome.
Everyone, carers, staff, nurses, gave me a lot of support.
Took me to the bedroom which was under decoration, which I liked.
My sister was accepted and arrived August 15th, 2017.
Yes, we have had issues, some which
could have been avoided.
It's like anything else, you get good staff and bad. Bank staff let the home down. They do not know the residents and come over less caring.
My sister has settled and since August last year 2017, I feel the home has come on 100%, everyone trying hard.
Still, a long way to go but I hope I'm right saying we will get there if everyone pulls together, lots to be learned.
They are our loved ones!

Review from Jayne C (Daughter of Resident) published on 22 May 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Castleford Lodge Care Home staff have been a relationship restorer for our family. We were at rock bottom with no ideas on how to manage our very sad situation. My dad was offered respite that went wrong, then Castleford Lodge Care Home offered him a place. We as a family have moved forward with the
help and understanding of the staff. My dad is comfortably looked after and healthy in himself. What more could we want? Much more but the situation is what it is.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.340)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.340) out of 10 for Castleford Lodge Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.3 out of 5 from 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 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 4.340 for Castleford Lodge Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (100 Excellents x 5) + (37 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) + (4 Poors x 2) + (10 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 159 Ratings = 4.34
  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 Castleford Lodge Nursing Home is based on 12 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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, which has been reached with 12 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.
