My father is very happy in the home. He says the food is always well-presented and very tasty. He enjoys the activities that he chooses to engage in. Communication from the carers, senior carers and managers regarding my father's care to me is excellent. They are very quick to update me on any changes
that involve my father. As a family, we are always welcomed into the home. My father's exact words are - “I have no complaints about being in here”.

Reply from Ionut Dunea, Manager at Loganberry Lodge

Thank you so much for your kind words. It means a lot to us to hear that you're pleased with the care we're providing for your father and that he feels happy. We are dedicated to ensuring our resident's well-being and comfort, and the positive feedback we receive motivates us to continue our best efforts. Your trust and support are greatly appreciated.

The staff I had dealings with were caring, understanding and very helpful with most of them being smart and tidy. The buildings/units I have seen have been kept very clean and tidy although the decor is a little tired.
Given the number of residents in total, the food is of an acceptable standard although
the presentation of it on the plate could improve. Overall I feel Loganberry Lodge is a good care home and indeed one of the better ones in the area in my opinion.

My mother is safe, this is extremely important when your mother has no memory, hardly speaks and has limited mobility. The people who look after my mum need applauding as they do so much with kindness. Loganberry Lodge is friendly, welcoming, and clean and does not smell like care homes are painted
as being like. They put my mum's needs high on the priority list. Thank you Loganberry Lodge for keeping my mum safe.

My husband and I are very happy with the service the home is giving my mum-in-law. They all seem very caring, kind and very helpful. All of my mom-in-law's needs have been met so far. Medication, doctors, and health visitors have all been great and taken on board what it is my mum-in-law requires and
needs that is fantastic. Whatever I have asked for, or the home things she needs has happened within that day or the next day. We are very happy with the care and home mum has been given. Thank you.

My mum had been a resident for the past six years. She had developed good relationships with the staff.
It was lovely to know that staff who knew her when she joined the home were there when she finally passed away. It seems rather unique to have this link over her time there.
They developed good
relationships with the family and became rather like our extended family.
They understood my Mum's needs well and tried hard to meet them.
In the past six years, there have been some very difficult times but the staff have managed to care for her with compassion, kindness and dignity.

Really lovely care home, with really nice staff. Both my Nana and Grandad stay here on the dementia floor and are looked after very well, with a lovely spacious room and big windows so they are able to look out and get lots of sunlight. All the staff are really friendly and have a good connection with
my grandparents which is nice to see. When the weather is nice they take them out to garden centres and other places which is really good for them. Would definitely recommend!

Overall, the care provided was of a high standard. The staff were attentive to the people in their care. The one big criticism is the standard of food provided, not only of the choice on the menu but also its presentation.

Firstly, we would like to thank you for taking the time to complete this review. We always strive to provide the best care to all our residents. So it's always reassuring when it reflects in our feedback. We are sorry to hear that you were displeased with the standard of food provided by the home.

All the staff had a caring attitude and, with possibly one exception, were prepared to do more than might be expected of them to help when necessary. The superiors (in dark red uniforms) knew their patients well and could answer queries about them. It was clear that they knew the patients personally
and what treatment had been prescribed. One could sense the ambience, which was very good. Visitors were always welcome, even when arriving at mealtimes when they were asked not to.

From the moment you arrive at reception until you leave.
All staff are happy courteous and extremely helpful.
The place is kept extremely clean and staff are always available.
The food served to my father was always of good quality.
He considered his whole experience "like staying in a 5 star hotel".


If

any issues did arise with his health I was assured that the home would contact me directly.


I would not hesitate to recommend this home to anyone looking for somewhere safe secure for their loved one.

Our mum is on one of the units at Loganberry Lodge and has been there for two years. Within this time I must say we have always found the management and the staff kind, caring, understanding and always at hand. Management always goes above and beyond to support residents and their families, they have
an open door and are always happy to help at any time. The Reception staff are always there to meet greet and guide you in the right direction. Unit staff are amazing, work hard, all have a wonderful smile and support our loved ones (we will always be thankful for this). The well-being team are an amazing team they keep our loved ones motivated creative and uplifted even the bed-bound residents are as important and included on a daily basis, they have kept us connected to our loved ones in the most difficult times via zoom, telephone, letter or pod visits. They have a wonderful hairdresser, laundry team do an amazing job. The chef is very accommodating and is always happy to fulfil residents' appetites. We will always be thankful.

Large complex with two main buildings - separate sections within each. General opinion - good. Some of the rooms are a little tired (decor). General cleanliness is good. Staff are good and seem to know what was expected of them in care of residents. There will always be a shortage of staff but they
all seem to pull together well. For the relatively short stay mother had at Loganberry Lodge she was cared for well and nothing was too much trouble for the staff. Thank you.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.761)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.761) out of 10 for Loganberry Lodge is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 32 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 32 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 4.761 for Loganberry Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (300 Excellents x 5) + (59 Goods x 4) + (12 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 373 Ratings = 4.761

  • 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 Loganberry Lodge is based on 32 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 143 registered maximum number of service users is 28.6, which has been reached with 32 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.
