Since my father moved into Lillibet Lodge in November 2022, he has been so well looked after and cared for by excellent, friendly staff in a very caring and supportive environment. He was able to move in with his wife as it was important to all the family - and them - that they could be together. They
share a well-equipped room and although their needs are different (Dad has Alzheimer's), they are so well-supported and have settled into the home. The Home Manager has been so good at keeping in touch as I don't live in the area. Visiting is never a problem at any time. Any queries are answered and everyone is very approachable. Thank you so much for all you do, it is so very much appreciated.

Reply from Wayne Watts, Operations Manager at Lillibet Lodge

We strive to provide a high quality of care and to ensure that residents are comfortable in their environment. We also feel that it is vitally important to build good relationships with family and friends and want to make all visits as friendly, welcoming and positive as possible.

My mum has been a resident at Lillibet Lodge for approx 4 years and I have always felt totally confident that she is being cared for and is kept safe. During the last 6 months during the pandemic, the home has stepped up and been so amazing, not just looking after their residents but keeping the relatives
fully informed by sending them regular updates, including innovative videos. I think I speak on behalf of all the relatives, Lillibet Lodge have gone over and above during these uncertain times. The amount of effort they put into caring for the residents and their relatives is second to none. My thanks go to the home manager and her team. Thank you for looking after and caring for my mum. You are all 'BRILLIANT'.

The care home I feel has gone way beyond its duty. The care home manager and all the staff have been absolutely fantastic in their care of the residents in this very difficult period, they have managed to keep up the morale of both the residents and their family members. The way they used technology
to keep family members informed and in touch has been creative. The regular updates and videos have been a god sent. I want to say a big thank you to the manager and all staff for all the hard work that they put in. I could not wish for a better place for my relative to be in right now.

We moved mum here some years ago after a really poor experience elsewhere. Despite being a challenging lady, Lillibet Lodge continues to provide 1st class care, have improved her health and upheld her welfare superbly even during the COVID difficulties. We're incredibly grateful for the whole teams
continuing care.

Wonderful care home, second to none.
All staff are truly dedicated to caring for their Lillibet family.
During these unprecedented times of Covid-19, our family members have been kept safe and well, and we have had regular updates through videos, phone calls to give us comfort and peace of mind when
we are not able to visit.

My mum has been at the lodge for 16-months and is extremely happy there. The staff care for my mum with patience, sensitivity and love. All staff and managers find time to answer any questions I may have, and keep me updated as to Mums health and well being. Mum has a lovely room which is warm and welcoming,
with some personal items relating to her family. Photos with names on etc. This enables mum to remember, and the staff know who she is talking about.
All at The Lodge do an amazing job.

Current Review Score: 8.1 (8.117)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.1 (8.117) out of 10 for Lillibet Lodge is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.2 out of 5 from 1 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.917 for Lillibet Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (11 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 4.917

  • b) 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 3.2 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Lillibet Lodge is based on 1 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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 = 3

    • ii) 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 25 registered maximum number of service users is 5. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 5 = 0.2

  • 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.
