Sheila celebrated her 90th birthday in March, joined with all her friends and family. Catherine, Terri and Donna really gave her a great day. Enjoyed by all. Being a permanent resident, all staff are involved with Sheila's well being, making her day to day happy.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My mum has been in Lakeland's Lodge for four years now, and is constantly telling me how happy she is. The staff are very hardworking, friendly and caring, and frequently go out of their way to make things special for the residents. Mum hasn't got much of an appetite but I was invited to a Mother's
Day meal recently and the roast dinner was definitely restaurant quality.
There are activities planned most days (possibly every day?) and the staff running them are amazing with their energy and enthusiasm. It's clear to see the residents enjoy them.
There have been a few hiccups along the way with mum, mainly in regard to communication
(and not affecting mum, but me) Hopefully these are now being ironed out since the home was taken over by a new company. I really can't fault the staff that I come into contact with when I visit mum. They have a laugh and a joke with her and she really loves this.
The building is light and airy and mum's room is the same. Overall, an excellent choice.

As soon as you walk through the front door you can feel the lovely atmosphere and friendliness. Each member of staff has a smile and says hello. My husband has good days and bad days, but no matter what he is well looked after. The entertainment manager came and talked to us to see what my husband liked.
The choice of food is good. I can not fault the home. I am so glad my husband is in Lakeland Lodge.

My husband has been at Lakelands Lodge now for 12 months after a few weeks he settled down and now feels part of Lakelands family.
The staff are very caring + nothing's too much trouble for them.
The events coordinator team are excellent in organising parties-sing a long - entertainment by outside
groups. Always something to keep the residents entertained. I would recommend Lakelands Lodge to friends.

We came to visit and Lakelands Lodges had arranged a birthday party for our resident.
We all sat outside and had a lovely time as the residents had a nice sing-a-long . A cake was made and our resident had a lovely time.

The home is lovely and staff go above and beyond. Dad is very settled and happy which makes everyone happy as originally dad didn't like the idea of going in a home. The rooms are homely and all the food excellent. The entertainment has been fantastic getting him involved. A big thank you to management
and staff.

In the beginning, my aunt wasn't too sure as she was living independently and found it hard to accept help from strangers. As time went by she became to realise the staff were here to help her and make her stronger, and they certainly did. The once strangers have become family. Not only to Aunty, also
to her extended family. Brilliant staff, unfortunately I can't use names, however, they will know who they are.

The care that my sister received whilst being really poorly with a badly infected leg. Whoever I put my concern to was very 'up' with the situation. Always helpful to me with many of my questions.
I much appreciate all the care that she received by the 2nd floor staff.

Since my brother-in-law was admitted to Lakelands Lodge we have been most impressed with the overall standard of his accommodation, the care he has received and his medical assistance. The staff have gone out of their way to settle him into the home. We have always found them to be cheerful, polite
and helpful and the home is always spotless. We feel he is fortunate to be in such a caring establishment.

Often taken out into the community in my wheelchair with a member of staff and usually another resident. Plenty to do, also with music and karaoke. People will visit the home and entertain the residents who really enjoy their visit. Today I was taken to church (23/07/2024) for communion with a member
of staff and another resident and will attend the church on other occasions in the future. Plenty to do in the month. Very pleased with the care I receive.
Reply from Sharon HIll, deputy manager at Lakelands LodgeThank you for your lovely review. It is always lovely to hear that the residents in our care are enjoying their stay. Our aim is to support all the residents to enjoy life to the fullest. You can tell that the hard work from the staff is paying off, by the love and laughter that is seen around the building and by the community engagement that is ongoing. I shall ensure the staff are aware of your kind words.

Review from Garry R (Stepson of Resident) published on 14 August 2024 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I visit my relative once a week as I don't live in the area. Over a number of weeks, I found soiled/dirty clothing in his bedroom drawers. A week ago I found a large number of clothes in the drawer (shirts/pants/underwear) dirty and unwashed. These were not from one day but several days. There was also
a faeces stain on the bedcover. I informed staff who agreed that at 1:30 pm in the afternoon this should not be the case. I complained but to date have not had any explanation or apology. My poor review for cleanliness is based on this experience.
Reply from Beverley Abraham, Regional Operations Manager at Lakelands LodgeWe can only apologise for the fact that our care and housekeeping staff had not identified that your relative had put used clothing in bedroom drawers and had not changed the bedcover you mentioned. Your relative's care plan has been updated to make this behaviour plain and we have robustly reminded our team members that they must check drawers and other such spaces, as well as seeking to maintain the high standards of cleanliness which we always strive to achieve. We are sorry that we fell short in these instances.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.609)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.609) out of 10 for Lakelands Lodge is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 34 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 34 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 4.609 for Lakelands Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (258 Excellents x 5) + (128 Goods x 4) + (11 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 399 Ratings = 4.609
  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 Lakelands Lodge is based on 34 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 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 80 registered maximum number of service users is 16, which has been reached with 34 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.
