Happy, friendly staff make happy residents.
Treated with dignity, good food, always clean.
Back in August, Dad came home directly from the hospital. With great care, he has improved within two weeks - walking and eating. Now chest infection and falling out of bed, he is being helped to recover again.
Great patience and caring staff.

My Dad was in Belmont Lodge for a short time when he needed 24-hour care and Belmont staff were the very best we could have asked for. Not just caring but loving him as we did. Huge praise for every member of staff, we cannot praise this care home enough. Thank you, Belmont!

My dad was giving up, just sitting in hospital. Bit since he has come to Belmont Lodge Care Centre, he is a changed man, so happy now and all the staff are so good with him, nothing is too much for them. Couldn't think of a better home for him to be in.

Best thing I did for my husband. Can't describe what a lovely home it is. The staff are wonderful, they can't do enough for the patients. It's as if my husband has come alive again. The care is first-class.

Each time I come I'm always so appreciative of how friendly the staff are and how caring they are towards the residents. Most importantly, my grandad only ever has positive things to say - about how kind and attentive the team are and what a nice atmosphere the home has.

Belmont Lodge is a warm and welcoming home. The dedicated staff are always friendly and helpful and the care and support they give to the residents is heartwarming.
There are endless activities and family-orientated events to keep the residents active, stimulated and involved. My auntie is so happy
here and that is all the family could ask for. Endless thanks!

Belmont Lodge is a very welcoming and happy care centre. The staff made every effort to support my mum and make her feel special. The activities have kept her engaged and stimulated and her personal interests and hobbies have been encouraged. She loves crocheting and baking!
The staff have been very
kind and caring and often support her during difficult days. Their social media page has been a great comfort as a daily update keeps me assured that my mum is happy and involved with others and slowly making friends and forming relationships.

We had luck with Mum staying here for 5 months of respite. We have had the most amazing experience and if I ever got to choose a place for myself, this is it. It's a big family who loves to laugh, sing and make the stay the most pleasurable time. Who would have thought this is a care home, it's a home
from home, love it.

The care and attention to my aunt has been given without exception. The staff are amazing, fantastic idea to have activities to keep the mind and body going. My aunt has been so happy here and come on leaps and bounds since arriving, so much so we can now take her home. This is by far one of the best
care homes I have had the pleasure of visiting. Thank you, every one of you.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (10.000)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (10.000) out of 10 for Belmont Lodge Care Centre is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 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 5.000 for Belmont Lodge Care Centre is calculated as follows: ( (275 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 275 Ratings = 5

  • 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Belmont Lodge Care Centre is based on 23 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 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • 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 46 registered maximum number of service users is 9.2, which has been reached with 23 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • 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.
