  • Barchester Maple Leaf Lodge Care Home, Grantham
Maple Leaf Lodge is a modern, spacious, residence situated near to local amenities providing residential, respite, palliative, and dementia care.

Bedrooms are set across three floors and each floor has its own large dining room and two living rooms, meaning peace and quiet is never far away. All furnishings and decor throughout the home are of an exceptionally high standard.

There is also a beautifully landscaped garden that surrounds the home and a decked seating area, perfect for outdoor socialising. There's a greenhouse for those who want to grow their own vegetables.

Care workers understand that moving into Maple Leaf Lodge will be a considerable transition but it's one they try to make feel as easy as possible. By helping residents arrange their room just the way they like, or bringing their daily newspaper, staff will do the little things that make the biggest difference.

Meals vary daily, and are prepared by trained chefs, on-site, to provide a tasty and nutritious dining experience. Special dietary requirements will be catered for.

A dedicated activities coordinator oversees a number of events to ensure there is always something for residents to get involved with. These can be small events in the home day-to-day, as well as regular excursions and big one-offs. Residents and relatives are encouraged to make suggestions and requests to get the most from their experience.

Review from Stephen A (Father-in-law of Resident) published on 28 January 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
More like a HOME than care home, always a helpful and friendly welcome from reception staff. The staff always seem willing to help. Lounges and general residents areas clean well decorated with a calm and relax feel, with plenty of activities available, the large garden is also always well maintained.

This is an excellent care home where staff are totally committed to delivering client centred care based on individual need.
The care environment is clean and bright where each resident has an individual care plan suited to their lifestyle and activities to ensure the body and mind is kept challenged.
May I take this opportunity to thank all the staff who work tirelessly every day to provide this home from care centre.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I have visited a very dear friend who has recently been in the home for respite over the Christmas period and the staff are very helpful. I was greeted by happy staff on reception who offered me drinks and then showed me to my friend. My whole experience was wonderful and I would be wanting to stay
there should I need some respite or retirement home.
My dear friend is very happy and said everyone is very kind and helpful.

The home was bright and cheerful as soon as entering with decorations (xmas) spread around the home bringing festive cheer. Residents seemed to be in full flow, with some musical entertainments on to keep residents entertained. I was there about three house and all the staff were welcoming and friendly
and very helpful.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.757)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.757) out of 10 for Barchester Maple Leaf Lodge Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 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 4.861 for Barchester Maple Leaf Lodge Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (124 Excellents x 5) + (20 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 144 Ratings = 4.861
  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 4.896 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Barchester Maple Leaf Lodge Care 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 67 registered maximum number of service users is 13.4. 12 Positive Reviews ÷ 13.4 = 0.896
  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.
