Mum seems to have settled, after being in the home now for approximately three months. Seems happy. The only problems we have as a family is trying to talk to her on the phone, every time we ring the phones are playing up and the staff have to ring back, on their own mobile phones.

Reply from Olivia Shields, Marketing Assistant at Aspen Lodge Care Home

Thank you, Dorothy, for your positive feedback towards Aspen Lodge Care Home. One of our top priorities is to provide comfort into the home so all residents feel welcomed so pleased to hear how well your mum has settled in. We apologise for the issue with phone calls, the telecoms service provider is currently looking into the connectivity problems in certain areas of the home, so we expect this to be fixed very soon. In the meantime, our team members are taking a proactive approach to ensure that communication with family members is not affected and that all calls are answered or returned in a timely manner. If there is anything more we can do, please do not hesitate to reach out. Thank you.

My mother had only been in the care home for a month before lockdown started so I didn't get a lot of chance to evaluate the place. What I did find in the time I had, I was very satisfied with. Mum has a nice room, the staff are lovely and she soon settled in. I am looking forward to visiting more often
as soon as I can. I wish they'd had a screened room to visit in lockdown.

We visited Aspen Lodge without an appointment when looking for a care home for Mum. The manager at the time was professional and friendly. No request was too much trouble. The staff were kind, courteous and lovely to Mum. With the care she received, I felt I was given an extra two years with her. I
have no hesitation in recommending Aspen Lodge.

Our mother is shown love, respect and dignity at all times by all staff.
We have been shown the highest standard of compassion during the bereavement of our father who sadly passed away. His final hours were respectful and much care and dignity shown at all times. We can do nothing but praise all concerned
at Aspen Lodge Care Home.

When Dad first arrived at the home he was very confused, he was reluctant to enter the home, staff were very helpful by coming out of the home to talk to dad and reassure him.
Eventually, he went into the home and was settled in well with excellent help from all the staff, including the manager.

My mother became a resident 3 months ago and we were under the impression that where residents were mobile, they were encouraged to socialise. My mum has a lovely room and is well looked after but still spends most of her time in her room with meal brought to her on a tray. She needs people to mix with
and activities to keep her occupied. We could have kept her in a room and fed her.

My sister was in Aspen Lodge for 2 and a half years. Whilst she was here, she received the very best of care. The staff are warm, caring and efficient and her time here has been very happy. She is leaving to go back to her native Nottingham to be closer to her family, otherwise, I'm sure she would have
spent her final years happily there.

Very homely and always clean. The staff go above and beyond and genuinely care about their residents. Residents are treated with respect and looked after to a very high standard. Food is excellent and regular throughout the day. The care my grandad received on his final days was outstanding. We never
had to worry that he wasn’t being looked after properly. Highly recommend.

I moved to Aspen Lodge Care Home after I was diagnosed with terminal bowel cancer after my daughter recommended I use it. I can say that I have been satisfied with everything while I have been here and would recommend the lodge to everyone. The staff are wonderful, the food is excellent and rooms spotless.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.782)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.782) out of 10 for Aspen Lodge Care Home 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 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 10 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 4.782 for Aspen Lodge Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (96 Excellents x 5) + (20 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 119 Ratings = 4.782

  • 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 Aspen Lodge Care Home is based on 10 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 35 registered maximum number of service users is 7, which has been reached with 10 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.
