Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

I was looking for a home to care for my wife, who had a horrible cocktail of Brain diseases plus Parkinson's disease.
My daughter and I discovered Higher Park Lodge by chance whilst walking in Devonport Park.
We knocked on the door and enquired about the home and the possibility of us looking around
to assess if it was suitable for my wife.
Apart from getting married, knocking on that door was possibly the best decision I made in my life.
We were immediately made to feel very welcome, shown around and invited to meet the managing staff.
A room was available, which we gratefully accepted.
The staff helped me prepare the room, making the bed with my wife's own colourful bedding and hanging pictures, which she had painted when she was well.
Staff came in to introduce themselves and made my wife, and I feel very welcome.
We could see that she was happy and settled down immediately.
She had dietary problems, and the chef discussed the menu daily with her, producing alternatives.

Current Review Score: 8.1 (8.147)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.1 (8.147) out of 10 for Higher Park Lodge 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 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.1 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 5.000 for Higher Park Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (12 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 12 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 3.147 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Higher Park 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 34 registered maximum number of service users is 6.8. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 6.8 = 0.147

  • 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.
