It was decided to try out a variety of care homes before settling on this one. We liked this one best. I have settled in very well and my family are also exceedingly happy with the accommodation, catering etc. The home is comfortable and the staff are very helpful, nothing is too much trouble. I will
probably stay here now until the conclusion of my life.

My dad has been a resident at South Moor for several years now. The home is just that, a home. The staff are warm and caring, the environment is bright, clean and welcoming. Quite a few of the staff have been there long term and continuity of care is good.

My mother has been at South Moor Lodge since October 2020. I feel she is loved and cared for there. My mother and I lived together but when I was unable to cope any longer South Moor Lodge was our choice and I'm grateful that my mother is there. The staff are approachable and supportive placing my mother
at the centre of their care, even to the extent of telling me off for giving her too much chocolate. Thank you, South Moor Lodge for your loving care.

Very happy with Mum's care. She has been at the home for over two years now and has always been well looked after. She, unfortunately, has not been well and is confined to bed at the moment, but the home is getting her situation reviewed. The staff do not just let matters slide. She has been kept clean
and free of pressure sores with regular repositioning. I get regular updates regarding her health and well-being. She likes all the staff, as do I. They are friendly and welcoming to visitors. The home is clean and tidy. The food supplied is very good and varied, she loved the cake baked specially for her birthday with candles. There are very good facilities and daily activities and entertainment provided.

Real peace of mind, which is invaluable. Love the extra attention for Dad's birthday. The social media presence is so helpful, keeping us up to date with what's going on - particularly my siblings living abroad. A really well-run home and friendly atmosphere. I'm unaware of the financial aspect, so
can't complete it.

I needed to find a care home for my mum, who is unable to continue living on her own. After speaking to South Moor Lodge, I was invited to look around the care home. All the staff seemed friendly. The room they had available was perfect for Mum, who then came a few days later for a day and stayed. She
has settled in well. We have nothing but praise for South More Lodge. All the staff are fantastic, the facilities are good, and the home is very clean and pleasant. We are happy Mum is being very well cared for in a lovely environment.

Super place. My brother-in-law was a bit of an emergency admission due to falls. Our family are more than impressed with the home, the facilities and the lovely, kind and welcoming staff. Nothing is too much trouble, and we can talk to the team whenever we want. He is very comfortable and happy and
very well looked after, which is very reassuring for all of us. Many thanks.

I was very pleased with the care my mum received at Sout Moor Lodge during her week's respite care recently. Her room was lovely, even with fresh tulips, and the staff were very attentive. The manager was welcoming, and nothing too much trouble. There is a calm, bright and comfortable atmosphere at
the home, which makes the experience much happier.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5

My mother seems to have a good social life and activities with staff and some fellow residents. It is hard to judge when dementia is involved, but she seems happy, and she has good relationships with very friendly staff who are always smiling and having a joke with her.
She is well looked after with
health and hygiene, able to bathe safely in a bath with a hoist chair. Throughout the winter, it has always been warm inside. She has her hair done regularly and has access to a podiatrist when needed. There is excellent service from the local GP medical centre.
She eats well and mostly enjoys her food.
Visiting is very welcome at all times except meal times. When Mom's 'baby brother' (in his 90s) visited, it was such a joyful occasion, and we were provided with tea, coffee and cakes in the conservatory, where it was quiet and relaxed for them to reminisce and catch up on family news.
Mom's ensuite room is pleasant and opens up into a secure garden with a bench just outside if she wants to sit out.

I have received good care and attention from dedicated staff, much appreciated during my recovery from a major accident.
The exercises and quizzes kept me stimulated as my movement was restricted.
I enjoyed the home-cooked food.

The care and support given to residents, family members and even to their own team are superb. They give a lot of care and support, and nothing is too much trouble. I visit regularly, and there is respect for the residents and they are treated with utmost dignity. The home is clean, and the food and
drink look very good. The residents look like they enjoy it. This month, the home has got a new activities person, that seems to be going great too. The residents are laughing, singing and joining in, which is wonderful to see. I am very happy with every aspect of the home; truly amazing. Keep up the good work.

We are happy with the home, our mother (97+) is comfortable, safe and content. The main asset of the place is the excellent staff, many of whom have been there for several years, which gives an air of stability and continuity. The categories I have left black is because I do not know due to lack of
access through Covid. It is no reflection on the place.

Mum appears to be very happy and settled in South Moor Lodge. I have no issues with her care. She regularly has her hair and nails done and is generally clean. She needs encouragement to change her clothes. She enjoys taking part in the activities and singing.l I have no problems communicating with

I have been visiting an ex-client of mine in South Moor Lodge for a couple of years now - Covid permitting that is. I have worked in care for 38-years, and I can honestly say with my hand on my heart that South Moor Lodge is the best care home I have worked in and visited over all those years.
From
my very first visit, the atmosphere is warm and welcoming.
The friendly welcome from everyone you meet, staff and residents, are second to none.
I really look forward to visiting. I am welcome to join the residents for lunch at a nominal cost. Speaking of meals, they never disappoint with a variety of different meals all home-cooked.
Birthdays are always celebrated, especially milestone birthdays.
South Moor Lodge is kept clean and tidy at all times, all of it, and it is quite a big building. The resident's rooms are always spotless and cosy, with residents allowed to bring their belongings with them to make it feel more like their home.
The activities coordinator is truly amazing - too much variety.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.619)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.619) out of 10 for South Moor Lodge Care Home 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 28 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 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 4.619 for South Moor Lodge Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (228 Excellents x 5) + (81 Goods x 4) + (21 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 331 Ratings = 4.619

  • 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 South Moor Lodge Care Home is based on 27 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 42 registered maximum number of service users is 8.4, which has been reached with 27 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.
