We find Coppice Lodge a very nice and caring home. The staff are friendly and interact with people they are looking after. The meals are nice and my mum's eating has improved. There are activities throughout the month and people are encouraged to take part. All in all I find Coppice Lodge an ideal place
for my mum.

Excellent introduction to home and facilities which gave me peace of mind and re-assurance that my mum will be happy and well looked after!
All the staff/carers/support are all looking after Mum as if it was their own - nothing is ever too much trouble.
Would highly recommend.

The staff are lovely and caring, kind to the residents with a sense of humour. However trying to contact your office to pay for a resident was very difficult to say the least. If the phone was answered many other telephones were ringing which made it impossible to hear or understand the person you were
trying to speak. A better switchboard is necessary.

Thank you for your review, we value all feedback as this helps us to make improvements where required.

The care staff are really good, for the most part, however my personal experience is not good. They turned my husband, a 83 year old dementia patient, out of the home at really, really short notice at 3.00pm without giving me time to find support for him. Not impressed. Would not recommend this care
home.
Reply from Julie Caygill, Hospital Liaison Team Administrator at Coppice Lodge

Our intention was not to cause any additional stress but to act swiftly due to the circumstances, to ensure your husbands safety and well-being.

Food has been an issue with my dad. He was unhappy with a number of issues. My dad, myself, the manager and head cook had a great meeting to resolve the problems and hopefully we can move forward. His smell and taste is very poor, age thing, so that does not help. There is a good range of activities,
he missed quite a few but this is about forgetfulness and motivation. A nudge might help. Regarding value for money, we all know care is expensive. Overall very pleased, staff are all very good. Thank you.

Coppice Lodge has a lovely feel to it and the staff are friendly and approachable.
The staff are always on hand to make my mother's stay at the home as comfortable as possible.
Lovely layout for a care home, but I've noticed what lets it down is the TV/Lounge which looks very dated and needs some
work doing as most of the residents seem to sit in there a lot including my mother.
Also there seems a lot of light bulbs are not working walking to my mothers room making areas dark for my mother to safely walk to her room.
But overall apart from a few basic maintenance issues the home is lovely.
Reply from Clare Sheehan, Careline Advisor at Coppice Lodge

We cannot speak highly enough of Coppice Lodge. From our first enquiry whilst my mother in law was in hospital, the staff have been welcoming, professional, helpful and extremely efficient, nothing was too much trouble. My mother in law was fortunate to move in within 10 days of our initial enquiry
and the care she is receiving is absolutely outstanding. All staff are, without exception, wonderful, friendly, attentive, highly skills, endlessly patient and kind. We are kept fully informed about mother in law's condition. The surroundings are fabulous and we are extremely grateful. Coppice Lodge have made a potentially very difficult situation with mother in law's deteriorating health so much easier. Thank you.

We are delighted with the wonderful staff at Coppice Lodge. My mum has only been in here for 3 days, but the level of care and attention to detail have been unbelievable. Everyone is 100% focused on delivering a fantastic service that goes far beyond what we have come to expect. Hopefully, mum will
feel the benefits that everyone is offering her as she settles in and gets used to the new smiley faces. Everyone has shown great professionalism and Coppice Lodge stacks head and shoulders above all the other care homes mum has been in as well as those we visited before we selected Coppice Lodge for mum.

My dad moved into Coppice Lodge shortly after losing my mum. Dad was extremely emotional when he arrived, the staff were very supportive and patient, and they took their time to get to know Dad and his life story. He settled in really well participating in many of the activities, he was looked after
and treated with respect, and soon made to feel like part of a big family. Whenever I visited I was always made to feel very welcome. The rooms are very clean and comfortable, and the food is good. The staff are all very friendly, I would not hesitate to recommend this home to anyone.

My Mother has been a resident of Coppice Lodge for 4 years now as she described it as a lovely warm hug of a place. She is happy, and content and is well cared for by a team of wonderful people. From the cleaners through to the carers, medical experts and she wants for nothing. Every time we visit the
home is warm, and welcoming and everyone is kind to a fault. I can't recommend the home enough. My Mim is very, very happy there. The food is magnificent.

I am a close friend of a resident in Coppice Lodge and had cared for him at home for the past 6 years until his increasing physical deterioration made that impossible. We chose Coppice because his late wife had been here. We liked it then and are even more impressed now. The food is excellent, the staff
willing and friendly and there is a varied program of activities for those wishing to join in. My concerns about my friend's health and increasing frailty have been taken seriously and acted upon. Everywhere is clean and hygienic with no 'care home smells'. Currently, my friend is in a dementia wing - I have witnessed the staff dealing kindly and empathically with very challenging behaviors.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.496)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.496) out of 10 for Coppice Lodge is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 39 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 38 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 4.496 for Coppice Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (265 Excellents x 5) + (159 Goods x 4) + (24 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) + (4 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 454 Ratings = 4.496
  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 Coppice Lodge is based on 38 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 64 registered maximum number of service users is 12.8, which has been reached with 38 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.
