My sister came to Cheverton Lodge for a month's respite. She was made comfortable by the excellent facilities and by the friendly and accommodating staff. My sister is now a permanent resident at Cheverton Lodge and I am very impressed by all that Cheverton Lodge has to offer.

My mum has spent her last year at Cheverton Lodge and was treated with such loving care from some wonderful people, I really cannot thank everyone more. The new manager is doing a great job and has a fantastic team behind him. It's a beautiful building which looks more like a hotel than a nursing home
and is bright and cheerful and always kept spotlessly clean. Would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a place for their loved one.

My mother came to this home two years ago and it has been an absolute "godsend" with a great deal of compassion shown to my mother. All the carers and nurses are very professional and gentle and caring for Mummy. Food and drinks are at a very high level and the chef gets it correct every single day
for everyone for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

My father moved in six months ago and he is happy at Barchester Cheverton Lodge Care Home. The staff look after him very well and see to his every need. My mother visits him several times a week and is always welcomed and treated with respect. The standards of cleanliness are high and he even enjoys
the food and used to be a fussy eater! We have no hesitation in recommending Cheverton.

My father moved to Barchester Cheverton Lodge Care Home this week. So far, I am delighted with the care and support my father has received. The manager was extremely warm and welcoming and made me feel at ease upon arrival, he has a warm, human and friendly approach. Overall, my experience has been
excellent and most importantly, the staff had made my father feel comfortable and happy. In addition, I mentioned that my father does not like drinking plain water - the next day, the carer had put orange squash in his jug instead. Thank you all.
P.S. I have noticed a positive impact on my father's well-being since switching care homes to Barchester Cheverton Lodge Care Home - the manager is amazing and always checks in with me.

I really appreciated the excellent nursing care she received at Barchester Cheverton Lodge Care Home. The team were outstanding! I felt I could relax knowing she was cared for with such kindness and dignity. We have fond memories of visiting her, especially in the last few weeks of her life. She said,
many times, she was happy at the home and she made everyone smile with her sense of humour! I highly recommend Cheverton Lodge.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.896)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.896) out of 10 for Barchester Cheverton Lodge Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 31 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 31 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 4.896 for Barchester Cheverton Lodge Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (330 Excellents x 5) + (32 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 365 Ratings = 4.896

  • 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 Barchester Cheverton Lodge Care Home is based on 31 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 52 registered maximum number of service users is 10.4, which has been reached with 31 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.
