Review from Russell W (Son of Resident) published on 3 September 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Mother was very well cared for. No problems at all. During her final weeks in the home we thought the staff coped very well which must be difficult when entering the 'end of life' phase.
We would think anybody entering Southlands would find a similar experience. Well done indeed.

Southlands Care Home provided excellent care for my sister for nearly 2-years before she passed away. The staff were exceptional, very accommodating, nothing was too much trouble for them, and they made sure the residents were happy, well cared for and had different forms of entertainment which they
could join in if they wanted to. The home is full of laughter which is how all homes should be. In addition, the rooms are spotless. I would definitely recommend this care home to anyone who was looking for a lovely care home to provide care for their family or friends.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum initially entered the home for respite care just over a year ago.
After a short time, she told me she wanted to stay.
Several times since, she has told me that I could not have found her a better place. She thinks the staff are wonderful and the food is excellent.
I too have found the
staff remarkable, particularly during the trials and tribulations of the Covid virus.
The experience so far has been such a relief to me, and long may it continue.
A big thank you to everyone at Southlands.

I find Southlands a very good care home, the carers and all the admin are first class everyone seems so very friendly and kind. My mother seems to have settled very well and always praises everyone to me, her daughter. I've also noticed the food looks first class and they have plenty of drinks and cakes.
All the residents look clean and tidy. Thanks so much to Southlands for looking after my mum so very well and also making me feel so happy. What super staff. Thanks for Southlands.

Having concerns where we were going to put my father, I can only say that my sister and I were soon put at ease by everyone at Southlands - lovely location and the caring staff is a big plus and the fact we can tell how happy my dad seems in the circumstances says it all really. I would not wish to
end up in a care home but as several friends have said who have visited my dad with me, we would all choose Southlands if we had to pick one.

Review from Jane R (Daughter of Resident) published on 5 June 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The staff there are wonderful and go the extra mile for their residents. I was very happy with the care they gave my mum. It was her second care home, I was not happy with the first one for various reasons. The staff and manager at Southlands were professional and friendly to residents and their family,
because that is important too, to feel reassured. Between visits, due to not living in the area, I regularly e-mailed the manager or shift leader and got immediate responses. I used to ring regularly too and they used to pass the phone on so I could speak to my mum. I cannot say anything negative about Southlands. They deserve a much higher rating. Nice place, nice staff, professionally run and the staff really do care.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My mum has been here for two years. When she first came the home was failing and the staff and management was terrible. Since CQC was brought in, it has gone from strength to strength. The carers are brilliant everyone of them. I actually feel like family. My mum is looked after well and loved too.
The home could have for activities but overall good.

Review from H C (Next of Kin) published on 13 February 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Aunt moved to Southlands in November 2018 after spending a year in another facility in a different county. I knew instantly on my first visit just to look around that Southlands was where my aunt needed to be. The room I picked was bright, spacious and pretty with a lovely ensuite toilet & sink.
It was a warm and friendly welcome with an open and honest discussion right from the beginning because as it was said to me, communication is everything. Everyone knew that when my aunt moved into Southlands that she was terminally ill and was given the tenderest care, shown true affection and the utmost respect during every aspect of her treatment by every member of staff. I was there daily at different times and witnessed nothing but respect and kindness to the residents from all the staff. The food was good and my aunt put on weight. Sadly she passed away there, quietly and peacefully and I was fully supported by everyone, they went above and beyond what I expected. I can’t praise them enough.

Review from Tabitha (Granddaughter of Resident) published on 4 February 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My grandmother stayed here for palliative care in January 2019, and we could not be more pleased with the care she received.
Although only there for a week, the staff obviously took time to get to know her, listened to us as a family and were genuinely caring in their approach to my grandmother and
to us as visitors.
I visited daily, and each day I could see evidence of the care that had been provided, and things that staff had done to add that extra bit of sparkle to each day.


My grandmother was comfortable and well cared for in a clean, pleasant environment. We are so happy she was able to spend her last days in your care. Thank you.

Southlands is a loving, caring environment. Staff are excellent and always do their best to accommodate. Lovely and clean (never smells as some homes do!). Food is very good. Nearly as good as being at home.


Well done Southlands!

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.811)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.811) out of 10 for Cranswick Lodge is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 17 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 4.811 for Cranswick Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (164 Excellents x 5) + (36 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 201 Ratings = 4.811
  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 Cranswick Lodge is based on 17 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 48 registered maximum number of service users is 9.6, which has been reached with 17 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.
