Review from Doreen H (Daughter of Resident) published on 9 March 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

I have cared for my mother for the past 40 years since my father died, but the past few years she has had dementia. I feel that now she is in care, she is looked after very well. She has been in Chesterton Lodge for one year and in that time I have found that all her needs are seen to. All the staff

are very caring and seem to go that extra mile to ensure that my Mum is looked after. I was worried about my mother being looked after in a care home but I would have no hesitation but to recommend Chesterton Lodge. I find that my review below says it all.

Review from Ann M (Daughter of Resident) published on 9 March 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

My father moved into Chesterton Lodge in November 2016 after a long stay in hospital. He has mid-late stage Alzheimer's and is in complete denial of having the illness.
The staff at the home have been fantastic since his admission. They have been extremely kind, caring and compassionate to my father

and I.
All of the staff, from domestic to manager are friendly, helpful and often go over and above to make him feel at home.
I visit the home daily and am made to feel really welcome.
I'd have no hesitation in recommending it. It really is first class.
Well done Chesterton Lodge.

Review from Margaret S (Friend of Resident) published on 27 June 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

I visit a friend twice a week, she is well looked after, carers are very kind. Nothing is too much trouble. Tea and coffee always available to visitors, all staff very happy.

Review from Brenda J (Wife of Resident) published on 29 July 2015 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Since Sept 4th 2014 my husband has had excellent care. All of the staff are so caring and kind. As soon as I walk through the door you can feel at home with all the staff. Of all the homes we looked at we knew this was the right one. The choice of food is excellent and well presented. My husband was

in another care home for 8 weeks and he lost 1 and a half stone, but he soon put it on after he had been in Chesterton Lodge because the staff encouraged him to eat his food.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.579)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.579) out of 10 for Chesterton Lodge is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
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:

5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.641 for Chesterton Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (105 Excellents x 5) + (27 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 142 Ratings = 4.641
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 4.938 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Chesterton Lodge 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 64 registered maximum number of service users is 12.8. 12 Positive Reviews ÷ 12.8 = 0.938
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
