Review from P N (Wife of Resident) published on 27 August 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Cary Lodge recently held a "Beach Day" in the garden of the care home. This involved providing beach like activities such as making sand castles, dipping into a paddling pool . The lovely garden was decorated with inflated palm trees and residents were offered various fresh fruit juices. The highlight
of the afternoon was the visit of an ice cream van, when residents could visit the van and select which ice cream cones, tubs or lollies they preferred. All free of charge. The staff went out of their way to entertain residents and involve them in various activities. The home itself Is bright and airy and all residents have easy access to the beautiful garden, which is enhanced by colourful parasols and raised planters containing tomato plants . The staff are all very friendly and welcoming and treat the residents with the utmost respect. The manager is readily available to discuss any concerns.

The staff at Beechcroft, and latterly Cary Lodge, looked after my Mother with care and compassion for over six years until she passed away last month. Her needs were met in all aspects, and she was very happy in her surroundings. The staff at both establishments were friendly and caring and always
obliging on all my visits and nothing was too much trouble.

Current Review Score: 8.3 (8.303)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.3 (8.303) out of 10 for Cary 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 2 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.4 out of 5 from 2 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 4.875 for Cary Lodge Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (21 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 24 Ratings = 4.875
  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 3.428 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Cary Lodge Care Home is based on 2 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 = 3.125
    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 33 registered maximum number of service users is 6.6. 2 Positive Reviews ÷ 6.6 = 0.303
  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.
