The carers and nurses certainly went above and beyond their duties to help my mother. Such a friendly atmosphere, just one big family, and everyone cared for each other. The food was excellent and made on-site. I was worried about my mother going into a home, as she had Alzheimer's, but she blossomed
in there. She loved all of the carers. Excellent care and service. I was always made welcome on my many visits. Thank you to all.

Reply from Sean Mozes, Regional Manager at Midfield Lodge Care Home

Mum was in Midfield Lodge Care Home for approx 18 months. I found the staff were excellent, kind and caring. The managers and nursing staff kept me well updated of any issues. If I wanted to know anything they were always there with an open door. Also, there is a good choice of lunch menu. When Mum
passed away I couldn't wish for any better support than I received from all the staff.

Our dad was admitted to Midfield Lodge following an extended stay in Hospital. Dad's dementia had taken a nosedive and our concerned family was immediately comforted by the huge amount of care, kindness, support and dedication shown by the whole team. Even though Dad couldn't communicate in the usual
way any more, the staff managed to work out what a lovely fella he was.
They've also shown great friendship to my mum who visited several times a week as she was missing dad at home so much.
Sadly Dad's journey ended earlier this year and the beautiful calm and kind manner in which Midfield managed his passing has been truly comforting to our family. We couldn't have asked for a more peaceful last 4 months of his life - thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

My mother has dementia. It became dangerous for her to stay in her flat. She was confused. This home has taken such excellent care of her. She has settled in and enjoys the activities and is making friends. The room, although small is beautiful with an en-suite bathroom. The care staff are exceptional
from the admin to the manager and activities ladies and the carers and nurses. I could not be happier with the way my mother is taken care of. I love the way the courtyard is totally safe and a beautiful place to sit in. I would recommend Midfield Lodge.

I found this home to be very good with looking after my dad, in his final months. He moved here from his previous care home that had to close and I can say the care and friendliness were 100% better than the previous home. They treated him as if he was a family member, respecting his wishes and left
him alone when he wanted this. The food was excellent, even my dad said it was fine, which was a compliment from him being a chef in the past. I could happily recommend this home.

My brother received excellent care. The staff were friendly, sympathetic, and caring at all times. The layout of rooms around a courtyard means staff are more visible, reducing isolation for the bedbound. Thank you to all.

Reply from Ged Rabinowitz, Admin at Midfield Lodge Care Home

My Mum went into Midfield Lodge for 8 weeks following a 6-week spell in hospital. The staff were incredibly compassionate and competent. The end-of-life care she received was first-class and addressed all her needs. We are very grateful for all the help she received at Midfield Lodge. We considered
a number of care homes and we were very pleased with our choice of Midfield Lodge.

Reply from Ged Rabinowitz, Admin at Midfield Lodge Care Home

Your kind words mean a lot to us and we'll ensure they are shared with our team.

Cannot praise Midfield Lodge enough. As a visitor, I was looked after, offered refreshments and tea/coffee.
My wife's last days were made more bearable by the fantastic treatment she received.

The staff are kind and caring and Mum feels safe here. The atmosphere in the lounge is relaxed and intimate and residents are treated as individuals, with understanding and reassurance and a family atmosphere. The rooms are small but the layout of the home around the courtyard is very amenable and secure
for independent wandering mobile residents.

In the short period my father was in the home prior to his death the nursing staff and carers provided excellent care. They kept the family up to date and informed us of any changes in his condition. He did not want to join in the home activities despite the staff's constant encouragement but loved
his food. The family were very impressed with the dignity given by all on his passing.

Reply from Ged Rabinowitz, Admin at Midfield Lodge Care Home

I'm sorry for your loss. We appreciate your positive feedback on the care provided by our nursing staff. It's heartening to hear that your father received excellent care, and we're glad to have supported your family during this challenging time.

We would like to thank all the staff at Midfield Lodge Care Home for the high level of care, compassion and support they gave to our mother/wife over the past few months as they nursed her through her last months.
Midfield is truly a place where it is the staff who ‘make it’ with a dedicated and sensitive
nursing team working alongside the carers. We would like to highlight the additional care and sensitivity and generally going ‘above and beyond’ at all times of one of the night nurses whose compassion shone through in all that he did.

My father had end-of-life palliative care at Midfield Lodge for a few months earlier this year. The staff were compassionate, engaged and friendly. The food quality was good and the rooms clean. There were good activities on offer and a reasonable staff ratio. In difficult circumstances, they did a
valuable, expert and kind job.

The support offered to us as a family at a very hard time was amazing.
Thank you to all the staff.
The recent refurbishment has lifted the home.
Open visiting and the chance to stay with our relative overnight at this difficult time was just what we needed.

Friendly, caring staff, many of who have worked at Midfield Lodge for some time, made for a great environment for my relative to see out her final months. The level of care was so heartening it meant that the family had no concerns about the choice of care home, knowing that she was in good hands. The
home provided all that we could have asked for, which was especially appreciated as Covid was still an issue to the outside world during her time there. Grateful thanks from the family.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.675)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.675) out of 10 for Midfield Lodge Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 24 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 24 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 4.675 for Midfield Lodge Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (195 Excellents x 5) + (69 Goods x 4) + (10 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 274 Ratings = 4.675

  • 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 Midfield Lodge Care Home is based on 24 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 61 registered maximum number of service users is 12.2, which has been reached with 24 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.
