Mum has been in Aniska since she a massive stroke in 2013. The staff care for her so well. They put on a great party for her 90th birthday making all guests welcome. I feel Mum is very safe and well cared for.

The management and staff are to be congratulated on the ethos of the home. The emphasis on making the residents free and indeed encouraged to feel that this is their home. The welcome one receives when first visiting the home is second to none, being shown around the home. All questions asked are answered
beyond our expectations. I feel more than confident that my wife is having the best of care and attention.

My mother has now been at Aniska Lodge for coming on 3 years. In that time she has been well cared for and although she has dementia it is progressing slowly. She always looks clean and well dressed and if anything has improved in health despite being 93. When we visit her which can be at any time,
she is always happy. We are always asked if we would like a drink and nothing is any trouble for the staff. If on any occasion she needs a doctor, we always get a phone call from a member of staff to inform us. The home has also had several improvements in communal areas, which has made a big difference. All good.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5

Aniska Lodge has been a very good nursing home for my mother. My mother was previously in a care home, who were unable to help my mother with her increasing needs.
It was an extremely stressful time with a lot of pressure placed upon myself.


My trust had been severely 'knocked' by the care home

situation, but Aniska have been very supportive.
They have listened and communicated with me regularly about changes to my mother in all areas.


They know her and her needs well. They have training sessions for staff, relevant to the requirements of the residents of the residents. They have the medical background and quicker access to doctors, who visit regularly - very important. Everyone is very caring and friendly.

I found Aniska Lodge to be very friendly and welcoming during a very difficult time. It was great to see my mum back in Warninglid where I grew up. I could not have asked for a better home for my mum.

Aniska Lodge has always been friendly and welcoming. They provided high-quality care 24 hours a day. If I needed to speak to anyone I was always able to find someone to help with my concerns. They treated mum with dignity providing her person-centred care needs.

My mother has lived at Aniska for nearly 2 years. After experiencing care in another home which was far from satisfactory, she has become a very happy lady again. The staff are brilliant and very attentive. They are quick to calm anyone who gets upset. Everyone is treated compassionately and with respect.
This home has a very friendly feel to it.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.750)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.750) out of 10 for Aniska Lodge is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 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 4.750 for Aniska Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (196 Excellents x 5) + (56 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 256 Ratings = 4.75

  • 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 Aniska Lodge is based on 22 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 51 registered maximum number of service users is 10.2, which has been reached with 22 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.
