My mother has been resident in this home since October 2018. We visit Mum four times approximately per week so we see the day to day running of the home.
The day staff are really nice and helpful and so is the management. Mum has problems with the night staff. The house is clean and the food is good
- home cooking - just needs more choice.
A few more activities would be nice during the week.
Issues we have had have been reported and acted upon but still occasional problems which we will resolve.

Reply from Paul Gill, Senior Management at Bescot Lodge

Thank you for your comments. I appreciate we have small issues now and again, but please be assured we act promptly on any concerns our residents have with any issue. We are also addressing the menus and will be consulting with all residents on what they would like to eat. Our residents are our family and we are there for there needs.

It is a comfort to know that my dad is safe and secure and being well looked after. I do think that a change of scenery now and then would help. I would take him, but due to his lack of mobility and mental state, that may prove problematic.
I think activities or outings do stimulate and help mentally
and physically.
He is safe and being well cared for and that is all we ask.

Reply from Paul Gill, Senior Management at Bescot Lodge

Thank you, John, for your kind words. We are in the process of getting more activities organized for our residents, be it going out or more coming in.
If you have any concerns, please see Sue and we will be happy to discuss. Thanks.

I visit my brother weekly and always find him well looked after i.e. clean, tidy, clean shaven and well fed. His room is always clean and tidy. Bed made and clothes hanging in the wardrobe. Staff appear to be caring and attentive. My brother has settled well into Bescot Lodge and appears quite comfortable
and contented when I visit.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.628)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.628) out of 10 for Bescot Lodge is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 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 4.628 for Bescot Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (119 Excellents x 5) + (42 Goods x 4) + (11 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 172 Ratings = 4.628

  • 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 Bescot Lodge is based on 15 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 36 registered maximum number of service users is 7.2, which has been reached with 15 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.
