The Review Score of 9.5 (maximum of 10) for Barchester Werrington Lodge Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 19 Reviews over all time. This Average Rating is also the rating value for Barchester Werrington Lodge Care Home in Google's Search Results - more info
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 15 positive Reviews in the last 12 months.
a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating of all Reviews over all time. For each review the Care Home / service is rated Excellent, Good, Satisfactory, Poor or Very Poor on a number of areas eg Staff, Management etc. The Care Home receives points for each rating as follows: Excellent = 5. Good = 4. Satisfactory = 3. Poor = 2. Very Poor = 1. These points are added up and then divided by the total number of completed ratings to generate the average rating.
The Average Rating of 4.63 for Barchester Werrington Lodge Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (138 Excellents x 5) + (81 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 219 Ratings = 4.63
b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 12 months. If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with 'Extremely Likely' or 'Likely' in answer to the question 'How likely are you to recommend this Care Home to friends and family if they needed similar care or treatment?'
The 5 points available are broken down as follows:
4 points are available for the first 5 Positive Reviews, 3 points for the first Positive Review and then 0.25 Points for each of the next 4 Positive Reviews.
1 point is available for reaching a target number of Positive Reviews based on 20% of the number of registered maximum number of service users. If the target is partially reached then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home with 50 registered maximum number of service users has a target of 10 Positive Reviews, if it has 10 or more Positive Reviews it will receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews will receive 0.7 points.
If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. The calculation is the same as above, except the points are divided by 2.
The 4.915 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Barchester Werrington Lodge Care Home is based on 15 positive Reviews in the last 12 months and is calculated as follows:
3 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 = 4
Target of 16.4 positive Reviews (82 registered maximum number of service users ÷ 5). 15 Reviews ÷ 16.4 Target = 0.915
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
Barchester Werrington Lodge Care Home has a Review Score of 9.5 (9.545) from 19 Reviews

I am very pleased with the service provided by Werrington Lodge. The staff have all treated my Father with kindness, respect and helped maintain his dignity. He has specific needs in terms of diet and physical complaints and, in my opinion, the staff have exceeded their duties in supporting my Father during this difficult time.

My dad suffers with Lewy Body Dementia and many other health issues. The care he gets at Barchester Werrington Lodge is second to none. The carers are wonderful, they care for my dad so wonderfully. They really do care, it is so lovely to see. The nursing staff are excellent and very diligent to all my dad's medical needs. Any issues are always sorted immediately. First class care given by all. Management are wonderful and so, so caring. I really can't thank them all enough.

What a breath of fresh air this home is after a bad experience in a previous home to find such a peaceful, calm and pleasant surroundings was a wish come true.
From management staff to nursery carers and helpers all with such high standards. The food you couldn't ask for better, freshly baked biscuits in the afternoon who could ask for more. I thank my lucky stars that my husband was taken into their care. What a difference in him. Unbelievable. I thank you all from the bottom of my heart.

So far, the care my father has received from the nursing staff and carers has been fantastic - they all genuinely care for his welfare. This is the most important part for myself, providing confidence and reassurance during turbulent times. The staff are also excellent in communications with myself - us working together to ensure what's in my dads best interest.

After leaving hospital my mother stayed for a four week respite period. She could not praise the care she received nor the staff highly enough, albeit at a stressful time for her.

My sister has been a resident from April 2017. She has settled well and is receiving good care. The staff do a wonderful job, especially the older more experienced, even though I wish there were more of them sometimes. They obviously love the residents.

I have been visiting my wife for a number of weeks so I have been able to observe the staff going about their daily work.
I am very impressed with the care they provide, they are constantly checking to see if the patients are having the right amount of fluids and also regular to the toilet. I would definitely recommend this care home to anyone.

Review submitted from a Postal Card by P C (Friend of Resident) on Thursday 3 August 2017. Relates to July 2017.
I was attracted to a poster displayed in my local Tesco inviting people who are lonely to visit. I went along and was warmly welcomed and was offered lunch. This was in June 2017.
I have visited twice and made friends with both staff and residents.
I cannot comment on the rooms etc. as I chat to the residents in the lounge and dining room and all appear happy and well looked after.

Review submitted from a Postal Card by M K (Wife of Resident) on Monday 8 May 2017. Relates to April 2017.
It was a hard decision to put my husband in a home.
Werrington Lodge has helped put my mind at ease.
When I visit I feel like part of a family.
My husband's dementia has got a lot worse, but the staff are caring and tolerant.
Every one of the staff and managers fusses over me when I arrive.
