My sister was at Cheverton Lodge for nearly a month following a long stay at the Whittington for an acute orthopaedic problem. The care at Cheverton was superb. Exceptional in fact. This is because it is a caring place with highly professional staff. It is friendly and supportive. Very good facilities
and activities and good food. Her room was light and airy. And the staff were patient and helpful even when things were difficult. My brother-in-law needs help and we hope he will be able to find a room in Cheverton Lodge too.

Reply from Earl Elliott, General Manager at Barchester Cheverton Lodge Care Home

I was a resident for respite care due to a leg injury and I was practically immobile, the food was inedible also too rich.
For me, it made me ill, I was bullied by certain staff, (naming no names) it is the worst so-called nursing care home anywhere in North London. I didn't get nursing care and was
often forgotten at mealtimes, also other times.
My medicines weren't supplied. I was rather happy to leave it and come home.

My mother was at Cheverton Lodge recently for respite care and we were concerned about her settling. In the end, we need not have worried as she was very well looked after and seemed comfortable. It made a big difference to know she was in a safe place with staff doing their best for each resident.

I am very happy with the care my father receives. Since being there he has put on weight and has been very well looked after.
I often come at various times and always find the staff very friendly, welcoming, professional and extremely caring from the cleaners to the manager and really would like to
thank everyone for the care my father has received since being at the Lodge.
Thank you.

My nan was very apprehensive when she first came following a stroke. The staff have been so good at helping her adapt to her new life here. She is happy and healthy, well looked after and joins in the activities. The staff here are all very lovely and helpful. I'm so glad my nan has such a nice place

Prior to my father moving into Cheverton Lodge, he had virtually stopped eating and was very depressed.
To date, he is eating and smiling and seems very happy and comfortable in his new home.
Thanks to all the staff at Cheverton Lodge. You are all amazing.

I visited my mother on 13th July. Normally her washing from Wednesday/Thursday is returned to Mum on Friday morning. When my brother visited on Sunday 15th there were no clothes in the room. He was told that there was a problem in the laundry room. On Monday I had to go to the shops to buy Mum more
clothes. On Tuesday morning none of the clothes in the laundry had still been returned to her room!

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.
