I visit a lady twice a month. She is always clean, and the areas I see are always clean and tidy. There are nice views from the upstairs windows. There are always signs of activities; the staff try to do with the residents. A lot of the residents appear to have dementia needs and don't interact much.

Review from Dawn L (Daughter of Resident) published on 21 June 2022 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My dad is in this care home. The staff are very friendly and approachable and take extremely good care of him. Dad has had a few falls and trips to the hospital for checkups to make sure he is alright, all thanks to the staff looking after his needs. Staff make sure Dad eats a well-balanced diet as
he is very small and had lost a lot of weight, but is now putting some back on. O can relax knowing my dad is getting the best care and attention from the staff. Dad has dementia but knows his carers really do care, and so do I. Thanks to all the staff.

The last few weeks have been challenging in many ways for my mother, who is very troubled and cannot understand everyday things now and is not easily settled at all. The staff have dealt with these problems as they have arisen in a competent manner as is the nature of their training very difficult.

I am extremely happy with the care my mum receives every day. My mum has suffered from a stroke, which has left her with emotional needs, and all the carers and management help her with the special needs that she now has. I am never worried about my mum because she has all the help and support she needs.
I would like to thank them all for the care that she has received. Thank you all so much.

My father has been a resident of Bessingby Hall for more than two years. He is very settled at the home, and the carers have got to know him really well and look after him really well with the respect and dignity he needs. The home communicates with me regularly, which was a Godsend. During Covid,
they always keep me informed of any changes or development, and I am more than happy with the home.

This is my first time visiting grandma at Bessingby Hall after coming back from overseas. When we arrived grandma was at ease and relaxing downstairs. All the staff were very caring and polite. The hall organised a great open day with lots of entertainment. We visited Grandam's room which was lovely.
It was homely, clean, tidy and had a nice view of the garden. Grandma seemed very happy. The staff were very friendly and attentive but also let us all catch up together without interruption. This is a great place for Grandma and we are hugely appreciative.

Current Review Score: 9.2 (9.160)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.2 (9.160) out of 10 for Oaktree Hall & Lodge 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 4.8 out of 5 from 13 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 4.327 for Oaktree Hall & Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (86 Excellents x 5) + (63 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) + (8 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 165 Ratings = 4.327
  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 4.833 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Oaktree Hall & Lodge is based on 13 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 78 registered maximum number of service users is 15.6. 13 Positive Reviews ÷ 15.6 = 0.833
  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.
